There's a decided lack of Baseball Girl in it, but there's a new Cinderella Girls PV out, and it's animated! WHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!Update (29 November 2013): Okay, Bandai Namco doesn't want this thing floating around on the net, and is issui…
So I thought I'd mess around a bit in Playstation Mobile to get familiar with it. I hit up some tutorials and stuff, and thought maybe I could program something really simple. Just a bunch of text on screen or something, like is standard. …
So, ever wonder what would happen if characters from your favorite anime series all decided to go out to karaoke?I've known about this line of vids for a while, but I still find them pretty funny. Someone out there (who goes by the name ya…
Earlier I said I'd detail what I remembered of Iwata and Asakawa's panel in its own post, as well as what I remember of ZUN, so here it is.I can actually start out with ZUN, though, since it actually will be the shortest I'll talk about. A…
The last day of the con was a pretty low-key event. We were a little late in getting out, so I missed the Kenshin movie that was being shown... though I was rather indifferent about seeing it, so I don't really mind. I bought that Wagnaria…
Day two of Anime Weekend Atlanta was mostly filled with signings and concerts, as far as I was concerned. There was an Iwata and Asakawa signing at 13:00, and so with my previous con experiences in mind, I sought to be at that line at 12:0…
For this con, the plan was to pick up badges on Friday (not my decision, but I decided to roll with it). Registration at the con was a little odd, though. On Friday, the preregistration line took about 20 - 30 minutes to get through, but t…
Well, I'm back from AWA 2013, and I had a blast. Really, this was a really good con this time around... far and away removed from the days when the only thing to do was to hang around the video game rooms and play DDR.Lately, the con has b…
Unfortunately, my Atlanta friends aren't cosplaying in the end. One of them... from what I understand couldn't get all the pieces together in time.Luckily for me, I was able to get everything together - even when a wig I needed didn't actu…
Okay, normally I don't do things like this, but today I'll make an exception. Why? Because I think it's worth it.http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mightyno9/mighty-no-9Ever since Keiji Inafune, the creator of Mega Man, left Capcom, Mega …
Alright, well... I guess now that I've properly commented on everything Otakon, it's time for a review. Maybe the first of a few (and no, this is not my opinions on OreImo), but I think the tone for this is going to be largely negative. In…
The last day of Otakon went about the same as every other last day at (insert con here) - a brief dealer's room run, time wasting, and departure.Pictures: https://caelk.shutterfly.com/pictures/1138It was a bit of a bummer that I didn't get…
When I went to sleep on Friday, I had more or less completed everything I wanted to at the con - OreImo World Premiere, and getting my tapestry signed. So, there wasn't too much pressure for anything else. I did have to wake up early to ge…
Honestly, the way Otakon went this time, was that there was one thing per day that I wanted to do. On Friday, there was the World Premiere of... OreImo (that's the shortened name). It was attended (and unveiled) by the author of the series…
So, I went to Otakon 2013 this year, and though I couldn't do everything I wanted to, it was still great.Now, when last I went in 2011, Otakon announced the guest list like, two weeks in advance (and this was by choice), which was a proble…
I just can't get enough of these. Fair warning, they contain scenes from the more recent episodes, so there are spoilers around.The Sasha ones are the best.
So, my old keyboard, a Saitek Eclipse, lost a key. Not just any key, a very important key. The Delete key. One of the clamps on the bottom of the key (which clip it into the key slot) broke off, and while I could have just sat the key on t…
So, about a month ago, I went to Anime Boston with my friends and I had a blast. I didn't really take too many pictures of anything besides Raj and Origa at their concert Saturday night, though.Pictures: http://caelk.shutterfly.com/picture…
So, I read through the script I made of Rockin' Girl Volume 1, and thought I could do a little better in some places, especially in the last chapter.Translation (text only): http://www.mediafire.com/?waymt8l4p2tb3wkOnline Gangan: http://ww…
Finally finished my translation of the first volume of Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls, Rockin' Girl. It contains chapters 1 - 5, and a few of the lines actually changed from when it was published in Online Gangan.Translation (text only): http…
For a while now, a guy on Nico named R-KY has been going through Devil May Cry 3, in a tool-assisted run. Rather than actually going for time or rank, he's going for whatever just looks cool though. So, this is a Tool Assisted Stylish-run,…
Okay, so not only did I get the e-Capcom limited edition Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen, I got the Sega Store's limited edition of 7th Dragon 2020-II. It was a little pricey, but the Sega Store edition came with all the best goodies, so I jus…
So, I got to try out my friend's pair of Sennheiser HD595's a few days ago, and while I didn't get to try them for a long time, I figured I'd write down my impressions here. Now, to note... I listened to them through an O2 Objective Amp, w…
Well, I got my copy of the e-Capcom limited edition of Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen finally. There's actually a story behind my acquisition of it, but I'm really not up for telling it right now as it involves a lot of angst.So, I'll just sh…
Been a while since I last posted... and it's also been a while since I figured this out (i.e. a few weeks ago), but it makes for good posting, so I'll roll with it. We're going back to my forays in shader programming again, even if all I'm…
After being extremely lazy, I decided to get back into hobbyist programming. This time, I'm looking at shader programming, which is something I've always been interested in. Like last time, I'm in XNA, coding in C# and HLSL.So, it's not re…
Stir-fried ground pork, with sliced mushrooms... and of course, bean sprouts.Soy-based sauce and rice vinegar were added during the cooking of the meat, and the mushrooms were added later. After everything was nearing doneness, I dumped in…
Finally, the last of my stuff from Japan came in last week. Celga can be a bit slow, though to their credit, I did sit on my purchases for a week or so before telling them to send it to me.Essentially what my run boiled down to was getting…
Finally, a translation for Rockin' Girl, Chapter 4. After around three weeks of the chapter being out on Online Gangan, I finally got around to finishing it.http://www.mediafire.com/?7co08d88odba8waNext one is released online in April, mea…
We kinda got to see it in the last trailer, but this time they made an official trailer.Now I only wish they had four-person parties...Either way, it looks like the list of voices you can give your character has increased from 30 to 40. I …
