Reading Danny’s site, like I do most days, he posted about fansubs and how they are hilarious. A full gallery of these ‘blooper’ subs are here at Japanator.
I had to show this one from Soul Eater. DISGRACE TO SOUL EATER!!
If you remember watching Code Geass R2, you may have come across this…
Make us look up and down PLEASE!
Bounen no Xamdou is a new release by BONES studio, but is exclusively only on PS3, in a pick to fight against fansubs to make money. I’ve been able to see the first episode of this, and ever since hearing about it, I’ve always wanted to watch it.
This series reminds me of Eureka Seven alot. We have the boy Akiyuki who is ‘normal’ until he gets ‘infected’ by this streaming green laser, which turns him into a white cool looking gundam looking thing, which I’ll just call Xamdou. We also have another group of characters on a SHIP!! Just like Gekko State!! Not sure what their intentions are but I guess we’ll find out next episode won’t we?
To set the scene, the story is set during the Cold War. The main story, Akiyuki gets to the bus stop to see this suspicious looking girl, who doesn’t have an armband. Without the armband, you are not allowed on the bus. He ‘gives’ his to her, pretending to lose his to the inspector checking people. So they get to school, Akiyuki gets off the bus, and that girl goes literally boom, detonates herself and the bus kinda blows up. There’s a yellow green ball floating near the bus debris, the light from it scatters and hits Akiyuki in his right arm. Mutations start forming in his right arm until it contains itself under this ‘blue botton.’ He gets on the bus to find the girl, with yellow green blood leaking from her stomach. She says something about ‘Xamdou’ which I won’t go into detail about, she touches his head and he randomly gets a ‘red button’ on his head. She dies and Akiyuki turns into the Xamdou!! Rara
Very interesting!! Can’t wait to see more!! A trailer for those who want to see Xamdou themselves.
And I’ll add on the opening theme song which is very catchy and techno ^^!
The opening song is called ‘Shut up and explode’ by Boom Boom Satellites. All english if you’re wondering what they’re singing.
The ending song is called ‘Vacancy’ by Kylee. Interesting how both OP and ED are all sung in english.
I thought I would start a series of Anime Fights. No this isn’t the Warcraft 3 Anime Fight map. I will showcase fights from anime which are just awesome. And I guess ,collaboratively we can pick the best ones!
Showcase One!!
From Darker than Black
Hei (BK201) vs Zhijun Wei ( VI952)
The video below showcases their first fight. For some background knowledge, BK201 is notorious as the ‘black reaper ‘ the best contractor around. BK201 is able to manipulate electricity. VI952 is a skilled contractor who is able to kill people by /wrist. Yes I actually mean /wrist. When he snaps his fingers, he is able to ‘transport the blood stained things to some 4d dimension.’ Not clear but you”ll understand when you watch. I highly encourage to people to watch Darker Than Black. It is a great anime series!! So WATCH IT!
What are your thoughts on the video? I love it that BK201 tricks him. BK201 ftw!
The upcoming Harry Potter movie, the Half-Blood Prince is due to release November 21st, probably later in Australia. T_T. First trailer has been released today. You have to download it and then open the file, and it will stream to your computer.If you can’t be bothered watching the trailer, screencaps at MuggleNet. Harry Potter films are always fun to watch. Should be a good film to watch, seeing as all the main characters are all grown up etc.
So if you’ve been keeping up with Soul Eater, Kana Nishino performs Style, which is the second ending song. Here’s the MV for her full song. I’m unable to get the actual ending, because they just get removed.
I found the MV quite corny but with the style of the song, I guess it suits it.
The Style single comes out August 13. My thoughts on the song. It’s such a cute song, and her voice totally suits it. I’m going to listen to her other songs while I’m at it
