Suisei no Garganta Trailer

suisei

Suisei no Garganta-Meguru Koro, Haruka is an Original Anime that will be in two parts.  Viz Media has the North American rights to distribute the title and have only committed to saying it will be this year, no specific date yet.  It looks interesting.  Check it out from “BandaiVisual’s” YouTube Channel below:

Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds Cover “Dancing in the Moonlight”

I immediately got a good vibe from just this group’s name. A good band name is crucial and shouldn’t be overlooked, Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds intrigues me in a good way and makes me want to listen to their music. I loved the music itself and the group worked really well together for an eight-piece band. The vocals specifically had a nice gritty quality that worked well with the music. The only negatives I heard were that the vocals were a little hard to understand at times, diction is key for any singer. If you can’t get the message across to your audience you might as well not sing. I would’ve also preferred to hear an original song instead of a cover. I’m not a big fan of covers in general and it’s really hard to see how good a band is when they’re performing music that’s not their own.

Ninja Slayer Anime

This is one you might keep your eyes on.  It is interesting that it is written by two American authors and has obtained a big following in Japan.  So much of a following that an anime is being done for Ninja Slayer.  Here is the teaser trailer that debuted at Anime Expo on “kingrecords” YouTube channel:

We Attended AFW 10

Hey everyone.  The site has been idle for a few days because April, Logan, Luis, and I (Richard) attended the 10 annual Anime Festival Wichita this past weekend and we had a fun time.  We had so much fun that when we got back we came into the studios last night and recorded a two part convention podcast, on all we did and saw.  These podcasts will be up next week after I edit them and package them.
