Another too short weekend, another crappy work week. I am just dying waiting on a certain phone call. Damn it all. Meh, I’ve got some work to do, so let’s get this thing banged out.

Anime/Manga/Games

• The big-promise, small-delivery company Distant Horizon has promised an English film adaptation of Rinjin 13-go. They have previously failed to ever produce a live action Kite adaptation.
• Looks like King of Fighters is getting an English live-action film too. Gordon Chan will be making sure it sucks/doesn’t suck. Here’s hoping for the latter.
• Minagawa Ryoji is starting up a new manga in Ultra Jump called Peacemaker. It hits in the July issue.
• Comiket: HEY KIDS! Those sexy Comiket 72 event catalogues are out… for preorder. Better order early so you can make that list. That sexy doujin list.
• Takaya Natsuki, the broad who drew those freaky Fruits Basket kids, is starting a new shoujo manga in Hana to Yume. It’ll be called Hoshi wa Utau.
• D-bo has some lovely figure shots of up. SEE THEM NOW.
• And pKjd, whom I was sure had died, posted up some beautiful Touhou 10 news. DEMO TIME!! Ahh, it looks so refined.

Figures

• Not a whole lot on the figure side.
• For those of you who are scared of those big ol’ Haruhi figures, Toys Works will be bringing you folks a 10 piece 1BOX for happy love. Out this September for 7,350 yen.
• And you guys who like your Haruhi large and in charge, Toys Works is also bringing the PVC version of the Haruhi gakuran ver. figure seen around recently. She’ll be 5,800 yen this September.
• Don’t want Toys Works Haruhi in your junk? Well, maybe their Athena Glory from Aria will rub you the right way. She’s a full 285mm tall without the oar, and she’ll hit your wallet for massive (7,329 yen) damage this September.
• Lastly, we’ve got some delicious Amy action from Yamato. I’m with Shingo in saying I’d normally ignore this one, but this link begs for consideration (PROTIP: Scroll down.). She will be out in August for 7,140 yen. Ahem.

Well! Finished her on up in record time. Let’s get a move on so I don’t get fired. Haha. Ok, ok, maybe I WANT to get fired a little. But I need money. I NEED IT!!! I just want to live a relaxed life damnit! This say is going so slooow!

Propers to my best Singaporean friend TJ Han for posting up about this, and propers to me for making news out of it. Hanny pants picked up the Bakuretsu Tenshi OVA and it came with a few extras. Among the extras there appears to be a 3-minute long trailer-esque music video set to the TV’s opening song. It shows the sort of shit we all wanted to see at the end of the original series. Could it be a mild hint at a new series to come? I certainly think so. It seems the characters are already well developed and ready for a series. The story is there. Ah well! Check it out. And mind the minor nipple shot at the bottom.
