TTGL Guren-hen

Happy days for me!
I've just finished the TL for AnCo^2's release of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Guren-hen (天元突破グレンラガン:紅蓮篇)
Hopefully the team will be able to time and encode it in a few days/a week.
I'm looking forward to it!

Wii no Ma

Nintendo just released the date that their "Wii no Ma" service will begin in Japan.

May 1st.

The DSi version will also be downloadable from the DSi Shop on the same day so that you can transfer...whatever it is across. Videos. That's it.

Yay?

Looks to be completely free, and sponsored by various companies who will also send you free samples when you request them (also via the service).

Next week might be interesting...

MHGii Countdown: 2

Yep, only 2 days left! I just went to Lawson to pay for my copy.
4230yen well spent. I love Amazon sometimes. SOMETIMES.

Though it is rather annoying that they don't send you the notice that you should go to the combini and pay for an order until long after it's ready.

My advice to you all: check you order history page with undispatched items. If your item is ready to go, the payment code will be there.

Mugen Kouro - Infinite Space

One I've had my eye on since it was announced. The preview at TGS was rather interesting too:



Out on June 11th.

MHGii Countdown: 4...3

Er, posting a little late today...sorry.

Any new info? Not really...I'm waiting for my paying code for Amazon Japan so I can walk to the Lawson down the road and pay for it.

Oh, it is compatible with USB keyboards for multiplayer chat apparently.

Takoyaki!



The wife bought me this today.
Not bad for a thousand yen.
It does list one of it's features as an on/off switch though...hmm...

たこ焼き食いてぇなぁ!

MHGii Countdown: 5

5 days until Monster Hunter Gii, and more importantly the trial version of Monster Hunter 3 hits the shelves in Japan.

In the meantime I'm keeping busy by playing MH2ndG on my PSP. And churning out some translations for the Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass manga.

Rock on.

MH Gii adverts

An update to the Monster Hunter Gii website yesterday gave us not one, not two but three CM spots with Puukii and Airuu yapping about the game.

Clicky.

Hurrah for SRW K!

Forgot to mention that Super Robot Taisen K was the best selling game on the week of release according to Famitsu/Enterbrain.

...Then got bumped down to #2 when MS Gundam Senjou no Kizuna Portable was released for the PSP. Typical.

Oh and...

15 days to Monster Hunter Gii!!

http://www.capcom.co.jp/monsterhunter/G/

To be honest I'll probably play the 3 demo first...

SRW:K fall out...

Damn it. It always happens.
Super Robot Taisen W is directly responsible for me watching (and thoroughly enjoying) Yuushaoh GaoGaiGar and now K is having the same effect. This time I'm starting with The Legend of Daiku Maryu Gaiking and Soukyuu no Fafner.

...Next I'll be watching SEED Destiny again...

Ladies and Gentlemen...

May I present...The Banana Keeper!



Found that in my local Shop99. Designed to protect your banana from getting bashed about in your bag!
