old anime news and some other shit.

What’s that you say? It feels like ikimashou has been the sexiest blog on planet earth for exactly two years now? Well, that makes sense, because it has. I’ve watched some blogs come and go, I’ve seen people have crazy sissy fights like little girls. I’ve been on a podcast. A PODCAST PEOPLE! MICROPHONES RECORD YOUR SOUL!! And what do I plan to do to celebrate? Well, I plan to move to California and start a new job with a lot more responsibility. And as I do, I will work my way towards eventually starting a manga company. ONE OF THESE DAYS ALICE! BANG! ZOOM! Anyway, I will try to think up some way to celebrate. BUT UNTIL I DO, just love ikimashou for what it is. A somewhat infrequently updated site that is still keen. And in the mean time, I will try to get more time for updates. And maybe some other fun shit.

  • Kannagi is getting an anime. If you’re not on the inside scoop, it’s a comedy ghost thing with… I assume it is related to that Indian (Tamil) legend. THE MORE YOU KNOW. (*star wipe*)
  • The Naisho no Tsubomi website is online. It has plaid. That’s usually not a good sign. Rather, usually a sign for “No Boys Allowed.”
  • Nijyu-Menso no Musume has had a site put up. It has a trailer and the show is due out in April.
  • Zettai Karen Children is getting an anime. Which is… good? I don’t like children though. Especially zettai karen ones.
  • The guy who directed Kamichu! is making a movie called The Uchuu Show. That’s really all I have. It’s apparently going to be bigger than Star Wars.
  • Another shitcan children’s book is being made into an anime. This time it’s Vicke Viking. No one cares.
  • Aria the Origination has a site and a trailer up. Please to enjoy.
  • Another trailer online for Noramimi. It’s a trailer for the first episode.
  • 16 minutes of Ryofuko-chan episode 2 is online at nico^2. If you don’t read Japanese, I refuse to tell you how to turn off the annoying comments. HAR!
  • ToHeart2 ad has had a sexy trailer put online. Sexy, amirite?
  • Itazura na Kiss is getting an anime. And there is a website online. Annnnd the anime is due out in April. Of course, this sort of in making an anime gives me hope for a Maniac Road anime. Or for some of Kumeta Kouji’s other stuff to get made into anime.
  • Also… sad to say, a fifth Naruto movie has been announced. Movies for long running shows are always shit. Even, much as it pains me, for Keroro Gunsou. PLEASE STOP IT, JAPAN.

And that is it. Happy second birthday to ikimashou, and to me (my birthday was Friday), and I got some kick ass new stuff to celebrate with. WOO! C73 doujin. Delicious.

You know what site I had totally forgotten about until someone linked it tonight? EARL.BOX. Man, I used to hit that site every fucking day way back when for all the best DVD compares and boring nerd things like that. Well, they’re a lot busier now, covering DVDs and some figures and manga stuff. Yessir, they must not have day jobs. And that’s fine, too. But getting to the point, thanks to the down on her luck Gia for pointing me at EARL.BOX for the news that Naisho no Tsubomi is getting turned into an anime. It’s a sex-ed manga, apparently, and the one person I know who has read it assures me that it’s hilarious. I’ll take her word for it.

As an added bonus, the EARL.BOX page with the info[NSFW] also has some screens from Code Geass DVD 7 where the OMG PERFECT Karen’s breasts take center stage. I am reminded of frame-stepping through FMP:TSR episode 2 to see the nipples on the twins. It was so worth it. As such, go frame-step through that episode, and send me a copy of Code Geass DVD 7.
