We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
Yen Press is continuing its relationship with Young Adult authors with its upcoming release of Beautiful Creatures graphic novel. Beautiful Creatures is also coming out this week as a feature film from Warner Bros. Thanks to ENTV for the following trailer:
Disney is trying to reach out to the romance readers with Marvel Heroines, through it’s Hyperion Books publishing branch. This new venture will hit shelves in June with She-Hulk Diaries by Marta Acosta and Rogue Touch by Christine Woodward. You might check them out to and see if they are something you want in your collections.
Nintendo began streaming a trailer for the upcoming Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates of Infinity 3DS game. Pokemon is like the old standard and might be one to consider picking up for your gaming collection. It will be available in the North American market on March 24.
Ever wanting to take Chemistry with your favorite fictional characters. You can with these two books. Chukei Publishing Company has released Impressive Learning Chemistry (Organic Chemistry) with Lucky Star, where the reader is reading the story with the Lucky Star characters taking the class with them. This release follows the company’s earlier release Impressive Learning Chemistry (Theories) with Lucky Star. School would have been so much funnier if I would have had these type of text books.
Pony Canyon has begun streaming the trailer for Hanasaku Iroha: Home Sweet Home on their YouTube channel. It looks to be a pretty descent movie. It will open nationwide in Japan March 30 and advance ticket buyers will receive a 5 card exclusive postcard set of the characters. Hopefully this will be brought to the North American market and the exclusive incentives would be cool to get with movies here in the States. Every so often this has happened with a free poster or even in the past a free comic book and do you remember the free Yu-Gi-Oh cards that came with the showing of that movie. I would like to see this more often, it just makes movie going so much neater. Anyway, back on topic here is the trailer for Hanasaku Iroha: Home Sweet Home:
The next installment of the popular Blue Bloods series, by Melissa De La Cruz, Gates of Paradise is available. Thanks to “hyperionteens” for the following trailer:
Check out Brad Meltzer’s latest, The Fifth Assassin. This one will appeal to all of the conspiracy thriller fans. Thanks to HachetteBookGroup for the following trailer:
This week we get a look at “bat21wae” AMV. The video takes the song “I Get Knocked Down” performed by Tubthumping and edits scenes from Eureka Seven around it. The scenes that are picked work with the lyrics and the transitions are smooth. The only thing negative about this video is that it has subtitles are the button and the location number in the top left hand corner of the video. If these would have been edited out the AMV would be so much better. If you can look past the subtitles and counter number this is a pretty good video. You can watch it below or on YouTube under “Eureka Seven – I get knocked Down”:
