See! I Wasn't Seeing Things As a Child!

Years ago when I was very young I told Tendou about a Japanese show I saw in Nicaragua about this old Japanese sea ship flying in space fighting Aliens and what not. Since Tendou is a wee bit younger than me he had no Idea what the hell I was talking about which was frustrating as hell and to be honest the notion of an ancient looking Japanese boat flying in space with sail fully out sounds pretty ridiculous. I thought I would never see it again. After all it had been 25+ years since I last saw it.

But a friend from Peru hooked me up with some Nostalgia (at least now Tendou will know what the hell I was talking about for so many years).



As for the site being more active, we're taking a bit of a break but will be back in mid-September. I have a new job and video editing takes up a lot of my time. Tendou well, is Tendou and he'll try to post more but he's busy flying back and forth from Asia. We're getting a new guy in to. So yeah we'll be back soon.

(Dragonball live action will still suck)

Hokuto No Ken Edification 02: Tough Boy!

We it's been a while since the last HNK edification (Novermber of last year to be exact) and with all the new stuff surrouding the franchise (including that "Elseworld-ish animated Special their doing where Kenshiro is a hunter and Jagi is like an undead thing, There will be toys based of it btw) that I figure I should post another video. This video is the final opening of the series. This one has that famous "Tough Boy" song but since it's the end of the series this one has Kaioh at the end instead of Falco (Kaioh is Raoh's cool looking but not as cool older brother).

Enjoy the vid and oh yeah below is the HNK special I was talking about.

SHOOT 2 FLY 004: "I Believe it's Called Freeballin'."

Haven't done a shoot 2 Fly in a while so I figure this would make a nice little three picture post. For those who were around collecting at the time Fewture was making really nice action figures that while they weren't super posable or anything were damn nice looking. and had that unique look that only the designer YASUSHI NIRASAWA could give it (how to describe his stuff.... lets say he can put a cute face on an alien/fetished out body with massive human naked tits sticking out. Needless to say he can draw monsters as well. He can draw tits and monsters. God Bless him).

This was about 8-9 years ago and Satan was a regular release in the second series of Devilman: More Than Demon line. But this Satan here was a limited release gold version (as opposed to the translucent blue one). Officially it's called HEAVENS'S AGE GOLD SATAN 666.

I get very nostalgic just talking about it. Enjoy the pix.

ART OF WAR Gallery: A Moment of Silence After Kicking Ass...

Ok ok, this statue's pose is actually from a pretty well known image in the multi-award winning manga BERSERK by Kentaro Miura but I couldn't think of a romantic-ish title for this post (that's the other guys style). This is actually the exclusive bloody version that comes with the coin. If your wondering where the coin is in the gallery, we forgot it but as soon as we get back from Otakon (no autograph requests please) we'll add it to the gallery.

So for the moment enjoy Guts here in his bloody glory.

Congrats to One of Our Very Own...

Our very own BlackJackie999 will be the official Yoko at the Bandai booth at this weekend's Otakon in Baltimore!! For those who don't know Otakon is the largest Anime Convention in the east coast and it's just annoyingly huge and filled with.... fandom (take that as you will).

Regardless it's a great honor and a big deal for Blackjackie! So go up and say hi (and for those who don't know who Yoko is this is her).
