Caption Battle: So Not The Drama...

"To watch Wendee Lee say 'bitchin'' again?"
"To DVR Dollhouse?"
"No... it's time for this week's (regrettably delayed) caption battle!"
But first, last week's winners:
In third place, playing the game short and sweetly: sweetdevil!
Facepalm, the Valentine's edition.
In second place, because I enjoy wordplay: Calaya!
She said she'd give him the finger, he took her whole hand!
And in the coveted first place, because spite is just plain funny... Aceburner!
The interesting thing is that Miroku caught that hand mid-slap. Who's the ninja now?
Not a bad showing this week. Not bad at all... on to this week!

A month ago we held a Valentine's Day-themed contest where artists were encouraged to submit art featuring either of our mascots in a V-day setting. We received a bunch of great entries.
To judge the competition, we recruited Mike, our lead designer as well as the man behind our blimpy hat mascot. He spent a lot of time agonizing over the choices, which demonstrates the quality of all the entrants.
Here are the winners:
Grand Prize - $50 Gift Certificate
Runner Up - $20 Gift Certificate
Runner Up - $20 Gift Certificate
Honorable Mention
Special thanks to Otaku Mitsukai for sponsoring this contest and great job to all entrants!
theOtaku.com Anime Podcast V - Ep. 19
Na-cho Cheese. How do you fit five bulbasaurs and two charizards onto a bus?
Come and knock on their door,
they'll be waiting for you,
where the kisses are his and his and his...
