Hellsing returns!!

2005-07-11T23:05:00.000-07:00

Recently, my favorite manga is "Hellsing", by Kouta Hirano.
The anime version of the manga was made by Gonzo, but it is fuckin' shit.
Though, "Hellsing" anime version will be made in this year!!!!
"Hellsing" fuckin' shit version was made by Gonzo.
Gonzo is the one of worst animetion production.
But, the staff of New Hellsing are nice.
Hope be the nice anime!

I love SF and Mystery as genre of litrature.

I love SF and Mystery. The love for them is look like the love for philosophy for me(not comtemporary thought). What I want to story, narrative or novel is not about human. What I want to them is not "reality". What I only want to them is unti-real, the wonder-sense of another world.

RUMBLE　ROSES

2005-03-07T19:37:00.000-08:00

I bought the PS2 game, "RUMBLE ROSE".

http://www.konamityo.co.jp/rumbleroses/

The game is a Professional wrestling game only women characters. Probably, the maker of the game is conscious of WWE and "DEAD OR ALIVE"series. I heard that X-BOX and DOA series are very popular in USA, the game is made as the oppsition against them.
The all characters of "RUMBLE ROSES" are very showy and have a very strong personality.
But as a fact, the game-system of the game is not good. So the player will not entertain the game without showmanship when he/she play.
Anyway, I love the game. Recently, I have not play any game, but this game excited me.

otaku figure

2004-11-02T19:47:00.000-08:00

I like the figure of anime, manga, game. Recently, I correct the figures of the heroines of Super Robot animes, and DOA. They are very reasonable, but very cute.
In Japan, many otaku figure are made by the otakus, and companies. It's cost is almost 200yen~8000yen. But some figures are very expensive. For example, the figure of Rei Ayanami real scale limited version is 300000yen. I want it, but I do not buy it!

Electronic waves

2004-10-09T05:30:00.000-07:00

I am writing this blog while listenning to "TOUR DE FRANCE SOUNDTRACKS". The album is original album of KRAFTWERK, the originator of Techno music since 1986.
To be frank, "TOUR DE FRANCE" is not good than their past albums : for example, "Man-Machine", "Trans Europe Express", "Radioactivity".
But, the album is more great than any other techno artists' album.
I have gone the live P.A. of KRAFTWERK four times.
I have gone their live three times in the world tour in 1996. And I went to electroglide 2002.
Every their live P.A. was incredible and wonderful.
They behaved like robots, and I beliebe in they are robots in the fact!
They are perfect man-machine.

The variety of Otaku culture

2004-09-28T20:11:00.000-07:00

Recently, Otaku culture in Japan occupies the attention of the whole world. For examle, Takashi Murakami, the one of most famous Japanese contemporary artist, offten use the Otaku culture as the motif in his works.
The government of Japan make a long term export plan of Japanese anime, manga, game and Otaku culture.
I am glad to be known Japanese Otaku culture by the people in other countries, but To do the government of Japan to Otaku culture is exploitation because they neglect the variety of Otaku culture.
I love Otaku culture very well. So, I get angry to the exploitation.

I wish Russ Meyer forever...

Do you know "Moe"?

2004-09-15T08:20:00.000-07:00

Since several years ago, many Japanese Otaku use the word, "moe".
moe can be translated " pretty and lovely" in English. "moe" is an adjective. "moeru" is a verb.
So, "This charactor is very pretty and lovely" is can translated 「このキャラは萌えるね」（Kono chara ha moeru ne" in Japanese.
Recently, a lot of Japanese otaku often use the word. And in Japan, the collection of the English words that title is "moeru eitango"(the pretty and lovely collection of the English words) was published for the Otakus and the students. The published amount of The book is over 100000. A corporation of mobile phone in Japan begins the service that the users use the collection of words on mobile phone.
If you love Otaku-culture(anime, manga, game, cosplay etc...), use the word for your favorite character, person, animals and so on.

character maniac

2004-09-14T02:38:00.000-07:00

I love anime, manga, and game. For them, the important element is "character" as concept. About the "character" as concept, Go Ito the manga critic wrote "some look like personality" in his blog. I am very interested in his thought, But I do not think so. I think that Charactor is itself made on media and by pop culture, human personality is made on human body and by experience.

I am a Otaku. But I do not love only Otaku culture, but other culture. For example, literature, art, music, metaphisics, philosophy and so on.
