Anime St. George has now been featured in Fan To Pro: The Blog of Professional Geekery!
I talked to Steven Savage a few weeks ago and he did an interview with me, asking how our convention utilizes events and panels that are career oriented as well as using local guests, even if they don’t live down the street but a few hours away. We also talked about how Anime St. George uses good business practices to trade for ad space, dealer’s tables and other convention support.

Just an fyi to the audience coming from your humble writer, I’m currently studying for the LSAT’s. Of course, what culminates from this is utter boredom and pure misery. The outcome is this picture which I drew for no apparent raisin.
Fuura Kafuka
I can’t draw, so her eyes are a bit off.
However, since she is supposed to be super positive (in the anime which I shall not mention,) I’m sure she’ll understand. I mean she is named after Franz Kafka for gosh sakes.
Don’t even ask me about the other images you see on this sheet of paper.
I actually first encountered “Mushi shi” in the 2006 live-action film directed by Akira-legend Otomo Katsuhiro. I loved the quiet beauty of the film, and was intrigued to see the animated version. It was, in a world, mesmerizing.
This series is much more beautiful than the film, and because of the length of the series it is a richer and deeper adventure. I have rarely seen animation of this quality, especially in a television series. The green tone and emphasis on nature bring to mind some of the lovelier scenes of Miyazaki’s work as in Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
The storyline is fairly easy to describe. It follows the journey of a “mushi shi”, or “mushi master” named Ginko, as he travels around and helps people who are having problems with mushi. (Funimation was quite wise with the translation of this anime by the way. The word mushi, when written with this kanji, is a difficult one to translate, and I have seen people calling this series “Bugmaster” which is a gross mistake. In this situation it was much better to keep the original Japanese word intact). An anthology series, Ginko rarely encounters the same people twice, and each episode is fresh and original. The series can be watched in any order.
The tone of “Mushi shi” is very quiet and somber, balancing on the edge of being a ghost story. There is a definite supernatural theme here, and the mushi themselves remind me of the “rods” creatures that occasionally turn up on cryptozoology series like Monsterquest. Anyone who loves Japanese supernatural stories, especially those that use the mystical elements of the natural world, will love “Mushi shi”.
Special props also get called out to Funimation for their presentation of this series. I have never seen such a long series packaged so compactly. There are four disks in two slim cases, which takes up hardly any space at all. With my DVD collection as large as it is, these kind of space-saving innovations are really appreciated.
Ahh~ In this Fall i think i’ll not watch any anime… because many reason such as my test score was so bad, and also not much interesting anime in thi Fall.

It’s about a school that full vampire and each of the student blessed by some weapon from their birth but unfortunately Alfredo van Envrio (Hahaha…) wasn’t bless by his weapon from birth and he didn’t like blood!! (How cute if vampire doesn’t like blood… i meant artificial blood) One day he met Kei, a human. Kei entered the same class with Aldred and thought that Kei has powerful strenght beyond normal human. Until one of Aldred’s friend attacked the entire school and made mess, Aldred was injired badly so Kei asked him to sucked his blood and Kei changed himself to holy spear that was Aldred’s weapon… And what happen next???

ฉากที่เศร้าที่สุดที่ได้ดูเรื่องนี้ คือฉากที่พบเจอน้องสาว Suitengu ฉากแบบนี้เจอมาคล้ายๆ เรื่อง Now and Then , Here and There เรื่องนี้เจอตอนต้นๆ เรื่อง ทำเอาไม่อยากดุไปเลย (ทำใจมาหลายปีแล้ว ยังไม่ได้ดูต่อเลย) เอาเป็นว่าเรื่องนี้ดำดิ่งไปสู่ส่วนลึกของความชั่วร้ายในใจคน แล้วก็ค่อยๆ ดิ้นรนเพื่อความดีงาม ซึ่งสุดท้ายได้หลุดออกมาจากความมืดหม่นถึงแม้จะต้องสูญเสียบางสิ่งไปก็ตาม อย่าให้ตัณหาได้ครอบครองใจของคุณ ไม่อย่างนั้นคุณอาจจะประสบความหายนะเหมือนกับหลายๆ ตัวละครในเรื่องนี้
It’s been a while, but Judy and Mary’s vocalist is back with a brand new single, “COSMIC BOX.” This will be YUKI’s 19th singles since the band disbanded back in early 2000s.
The song will be the opening to anime, “Magare! Spoon” and will be released on 11/18. The single will also have her original Christmas song, “Message”. First press comes with a DVD of her PV “COSMIC BOX.”
Aoba ama el Baseball. Desde pequeña lo ha practicado, pero siempre en contra de los chicos, a los que muchas veces derrotó…
¿Podrá seguir de esa forma para siempre. Siendo solo una “herramienta” de entrenamiento para el equipo sin poder competir en serio?
¿Aceptará competir entre chicas, a las que parece no respeta como oponentes válidos? ¿Estará su futuro fuera de Seishu?
El futuro de Aoba como Beisbolista, su deseo de entrar al Koshien, su relación con Ko…todo esto y mucho mas en este excelente Capitulo 22 de Cross Game que entra en tierra derecha hacia el final de la temporada…
Solo aquí, en Tekeremata!
Agradezco la paciencia de los que siguen la serie por este sitio…
Descarga Directa
La serie ya cuenta con 5 capitulos traducidos, por lo tanto iniciaré en el 6to (se pone buena xD) y sacaré 3 o 4 por semana hasta la meta de alcanzarla Algún dia…(roguemos…xD). Posteriormente completaré la serie con los primeros cinco que acá publico, y que no me pertencen. Agradezco enormemente a los que se dieron el trabajo de trabajar en ella…
