| 5:38pm | Fun Times @ UP AME 8th Avenue Part 2: The Art of Filipino Cosplaying | | | | I’m afraid this post will now be drowned in the sea of AFA posts due to its lateness, but I don’t really mind. There’s not enough blogs out there that provide coverage to our local cons, so there’s no way I can just give up writing this. And besides, the cosplay competition I witnessed (for... | | |

| 5:42am | T.H.A.T Fall 2008 Anime Preview |  | | | You know that this will be a great season when I do not even know whether I will be blogging EF. Since poor Calawain wrote the previous summer season, it might seem reasonable that he has the invaluable experience to continue on this feature of T.H.A.T. Nonetheless, to relieve him of his pain and his... | | |

| 3:28am | Various Thoughts Concerning American Cartoons in Japan | | | | I recall at some point someone (possibly me) asking my high school Japanese teacher what animation she watched as a child. I think everyone was expecting an answer like Tetsuwan Atom or Candy Candy or something, but her answer was “Tom and Jerry.” She was apparently quite fond of it as... | | |
| 4:06pm | Fireball: Disney did WHAT now? | | | | Fireball is a 3-D animation airing in Japan, produced in part by Disney. Yes, that Disney. Each episode is less than two minutes long, and it seems to be a concerted effort by Disney to make newer in-roads into Japan’s animation-watching audience. I say newer because Japan IS actually fond of... | | |
| 7:08pm | Powerpuff Girls Z - English Dub (CN Philippines) | | | | Hmm, it has been awhile since I posted anything PPGZ-related. But after hearing the English dub that premiered on Cartoon Network Philippines, I was left in disbelief and needed to share. Names were changed, music was dropped, all around strange, however, I’m not sure if this is the same dub that... | | |
| 12:01am | Kadokawa Is At It Again (2nd Annual Seiyuu Awards) | | | | So apparently Kadokawa managed to put their own promotional interests ahead of the greater good again with this years 2nd Annual Seiyuu awards by basically giving the noteriety to people from their own camp. The winners are inside: Best Leading Male: Miyano Mamoru (for Gundam 00) (Kadokawa Publishes... | | |

| 2:28am | Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z - Final Episode | | | | After the last episode’s pure awesomeness, we come to the conclusion of this great show. Will the final episode live up to the expectations that the last one created? Read on. | | |
| 1:31pm | Demashita! Powerpuff Girls Z - Episode 51 | | | | Yes, I know this is very, VERY late, but that’s what happens when you become lazy and don’t create a plan of attack for everything that must be done.
