stararnold's Revamping Update 1/25/2012

So far, I relocated some weblinks from Links Directory 999 to posts added to Starship Fandoprise and deleted the rest. Anyway, after doing a number of posts on theOtaku.com about Leiji Matsumoto's anime/manga since the termination of my Leiji Matsumtot anime-themed WORLD Leijiverse 999 a few years back and realizing that Matsumtto himself is attached to a few big projects he has in store, I now feel I was wrong to shut down Leijverse 999 despite that his anime and manga appear be amoung the underapreciated works of the Japanese media outside Japan. So, today, Links Directory 999 has been reworked to Leijiverse 999, but it will take some time to relocate all Leiji Matsumoto anime/manga posts by me from Starship Fandoprse to Leijiverse 999.

So now, the theOtaku.com WORLDs I am currently running are Starship Fandoprise, DC and Marvel Assemble, Star Trek Nation, and Leijiverse 999.
