Now I remember why I never leave the house. Because every time I do, I end up $120 poorer.
Still, what's the point of moving to Japan if you're not going to come home with an armload of animé, right? Off to Akihabara, geek capital of Japan, for some cartoony goodness.
That's right, folks. Everything in the store is animé.
This is a great year for fans of Japanese animation—The Big O season 2 is on shelves now, along with Standalone Complex, the 26-episode sequel to Ghost In The Shell. Er... Neither one of which is subtitled, so I guess I'll have to wait a little longer.
But I did find copies of Armitage, Patlabor 3, and hey, that looks like... MADRE DE DIOS! Hayao Miyazaki's Porco Rosso with English subtitles!!!
Awwwww yeeeah.
No, I don't have a girlfriend. Why do you ask?
Animé treats me better, and tends to stick around longer.
Bonus points for gratuitous use of Spanish exclamations in a post from Japan about anime.
Great website mike. Have you been eating saba lately? Have you put any other good things in your mouth lately. (ha ha ha) love sylvia
I insist you go and get a girlfirend and stop wasting money on anime. You have already wasted too much time. You have no excuse, go to it!
