Well, of course I’d be remiss if I only posted that spectacular KnJ trailer and called it a day. Especially with one or two other trailers sitting around online that you guys might want to watch. First up is a streaming Flash trailer for the upcoming Nasu: Suitcase no Wataridori OVA. If you click on the little elephant below the video, there are more trailers. If you want the, that is. No pressure. It hits the streets on October 24th.

Secondly, and inexplicably, there is a Kara no Kyoukai trailer that I couldn’t get to work in any browser. WHY!? Because it requires some random set of extensions and plugins and I’m not going to be doing that, thanks. Feel free to try your luck at it. I doubt it’s worth the effort. Due out in December.

Ohayo gozaimasu! See? I am SOOO otaku. It’s proof. Got some damn good news this weekend. Some good KyoAni news (which you already know if you watched the end of Kanon.) Well! Enough talk. Let’s make our move, de arimasu. I’ve been watching Keroro Gunsou lately. Yeah.

Anime/Manga/Games

• I got a press release from the good people at DLSite. I actually got this one too. Thanks guys. *thumbs up* Anyway, it gives the good word that they will be accepting works from international creators. Does this mean you can turn in your idiot Amerimanga? SURE! But, by god, I hope they deny you. Hopefully this will open up to some really original international works. So if you are outside of Japan and want some commercial hosting for your work, check out CuriousFactory for details and since you’re browsing around, head on over to DLSite just for fun. Full press release after the jump. (Yes, I am putting a jump on a Weekend Rollup. Jerks.)
• It’s been a while, but Souta-kun no Akihabara Funtouki has a minor update. It’s going to be an OVA. HEY THANKS GFantasy magazine!
• Arms Corporation has a flash-based first look at the new Kite anime.
• WOWOW announced that it would be airing a Shigurui anime to be produced by Madhouse. There’s even a teaser trailer.
• KyoAni News: Aside from the upcoming Lucky*Star, it was announced at the end of Kanon that KyoAni would be doing a TV anime for the Key classic CLANNAD. Oh, and moetron is also hosting the PV for the upcoming Toei produced CLANNAD movie.
• Here’s another long one. Minato Soft’s visual novel Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore De is getting an anime. And it’s going to be a TV anime. So prepare to lose a lot of character development. WOO!
• Terra E…’s official site has a new short trailer up. No DMing of trailers tonight. TOO BUSY!
• The full CG movie Vexille has had its site put up and also has a trailer jiggy.
• Like AIKa? I know I do. The official site has a 15 and a 30 second trailer up for the OVA. ENJOY THEM! I know I will.
• Nasu 2, a followup to a short film by Kosaka Kitaro, is set to be released later this year. There’s a quicktime trailer up! Enjoy!

Figures

• Alter announcements out. Doing those after this. Just saying.
• Another 1/5 Ruri. A waitress this time or something. I don’t know. I don’t even care about her anymore.
• President Japan is putting out a 1/8 scale Ryuuna figure. She’s sporting a nice sitting pose. I vote yes. 6,090 yen this June.
• To go along with that, there’s a Mao figure in the works from PJ. Same bat time, same bat channel.
• My beautiful OS Idol Win-chan is coming back with a bit more red in her diet. I still like the Cool Blue version better. 3,990 yen this month.
• Moeyo’s Fii-tan is getting a plushie makeover! Complete with upskirt shots!! 2,800 yen this month as well.

That’s it for these. Again, be sure to hit the jump for that CuriousFactory press release, and stand buy for Alter and a literally BIG update. Haha. It’s a joke, see? BIG? OH MAN! Also, I have done a lot of concept work on the NEW SECRET FEATURE OF GODLINESS. Unless things calm down at my job, it’s going to take a while to get it all together.
