So I know this happened a few weeks ago and I meant to write about it but RL got in the way. I am still scratching the head about the news that someone hacked into Funimation and stole an ep of One Piece and posted it one day before it was set to be released. [...]
Ookiku Furikabutte/ Big Windup
I immediately had to run over and post this. I don’t know how long it’s been there but Hulu.com has 4 dubbed episodes of this amazing anime. This will have to tide me over until Funimation starts selling the DVDs. You can find it here http://www.hulu.com/big-windup
The Power of T.M. Revolution, haha
Wow I looked at my blog stats this morning out of curiosity and found readership had increased by 1000% overnight. The power of T.M. Revolution! I looked at the links and search terms and it was mostly people reading about TMR and mostly from Japan. I tried babelfish to see if I could translate what [...]
New York Anime Festival

This is all about Abe in junior high and his relationship to his pitcher then. As we see its a completely different person than Mihashi in terms [...]
Blushing and baseball
So, what do you think about “Ookiku Furikabutte” a.k.a. おおきく振りかぶって ? *silence* Yeah, that’s what I thought. I actually tried to search online for some reviews of this anime but the pickings were slim. Is it because it is a sports anime? I admit that because of this I was somewhat resistant to starting up [...]
Black Blood Brothers
About a year ago I had the opportunity to see a few episodes of Black Blood Brothers (the center image in the header) at an anime convention. I enjoyed it so much that when I got back home I looked it up and caught a couple more eps. I pretty much thought that would be [...]
