old anime news and some other shit.

Boy howdy, I sure to like to fling insults at people. It’s probably ranked first or second as far as my favorite past-times go. And it gets every one’s panties in a bunch. That’s the best part, I think. Anyway, it’s time to get back to business as usual here at ikimashou. We’ve got a media rollup to do.

  • Yumemil, Anime On-chan, which is the name of the anime for some sort of mascot, is set to come out on January 18th.
  • Surely my old, forgotten friend pKjd will be excited to here they are fifth Precure anime is being made, called Yes! Precure 5 Go Go!
  • Dengeki has some screens up from the upcoming anime Ookami to Koshinryo.
  • How about some trailers for Otoko Juku?
  • The baseball anime Major is getting a fourth season.
  • Looks like Tears to Tiara is getting an anime. Likewise, the PS3 game promises to be sexy.
  • And from the same MoonPhase report, Utawarerumono is getting a three episode OVA. YAY OVA!
  • Moegaku 5, which looks painfully fucking stupid, is going to be ruining lives starting on January 14th. Pardon my skeptecism, but magical girl/bishounen parody anime sounds like a recipe for trouble, especially given the website.
  • Ayakashi’s got a trailer up. It’s a .lzh file. Winrar will take care of it on Windows, Linux doesn’t suck so no worries, and Macs… well it’s fucking WMV anyway, so good luck.
  • Kite: Liberator also has a trailer up. Please to enjoy.

AND THAT IS IT! I must now do a thing. Damn right.

Well, it’s been a while since I hit up some news that no one else had bothered to cover, so let me get you some information that I think you might like. Now, recently, I’d been a bit bummed that all the games coming out were hitting the PS2 still, and was wondering when a visual novel company was going to bring the funk to the PS3. Well, AquaPlus has answered my fevered cries and announced Tears to Tiara. Now, I am an unapologetic PS3 fanfaggot, so there you go, but this news was JUST what I had been hoping for. Thank you, AquaPlus. If you’re like me, you’re probably all balls out wanting more of a taste of what’s going on here. Well, there’s two options there. More info will be in the July 27th issue of Famitsu Weekly, and you can hit Famitsu Web for a run down and some screens. I haven’t had a chance to read through, but it’s looking like some turn based RPG action there. Will it ever see US release? NOPE! Not likely, anyway. Unless Atlus goes after it.

I’ll try to take care of figure news tomorrow. I’m really busy with work and getting ready for Otakon. You guys understand. I’ll try to do some blogging from there… or whatever. I doubt I will be paying attention to any announcements, really. Who knows. I don’t.
