It's been awhile....

It's been 2014 for some time and I've been busy. The new PS4 and Xbox ONE systems are here and the new anime series are in full swing. Nearly 120 series have been announced and it's only April.

Ani-Com? Never heard of them.
 AnimeJapan has just recently left leaving us to wonder exactly how many fans can put up with all these unwanted series. How they keep getting funded for new shows and how exactly am i to watch all of this without downloading everything? Wow. An anime fanatic surely has their work cut out for themselves. There is no way I can go back to the real world after this year alone.
Eren Jager. The cool "chicken wuss" who is only after his mother's killer. Completely ignoring the ultra hot Mikasa. (who has been keeping him alive without him knowing.)
 Attack on Titan is getting ramped up in both countries. They just announced that 2 compilation movies are in the works that sum up the 26 episode Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) anime series. It's well deserved although fans such as myself want more of the series to be continually produced. The series ended on a very unfair cliffhanger that may be marketing genius but was a knife in the back of the consumer who was invariably shut off to any emerging answers at the series climactic highpoint.
Ora-Ora-Ora-Ora-Ora-Ora-Ora-Ora- ORA!!!!!
 Hell freezes over as the popular 3rd season of Jojo's Bizzarre adventure : Stardust Crusaders is being animated. Good bye OVAs. Hopefully this gives weigh to the future series that are so much more sinister and unbelieavable than the begining series. I would kill to see JBA 5th gen Vento Aureo animated.
Aoki Uru 2014
Blue Uru was announced by a legendary anime company called Gainax. Its a previously dead project that somehow got funding and focus from the new age. It's the sequel to Royal Space Force : Wings of the Honnemise. This will be a must watch only because I am a diehard Gainax fan. Unfortunately the reality of it is that now talentless Gainax is so desperate for something to make they went back to a project that was dropped in the company's infancy. Back when chaos ruled and corporate funding had control over what they did. This will really be interesting to see because the people who originally made Gainax,  GAINAX..... are long gone.

Blue Uru was their project. The group that started Gainax after the Daicon Films. It could only be good through the team of that time and their unusually sporadic production structure. There is no way that the Gainax of today could walk away from this movie without looking foolish. It was not their vision to begin with but with a disc full of unused art (Frozen Uru) regardless of the stupidity I have hope that these guys will bring out a show stopper that will bring new fans to the table. After all Gainax has a ton of tricks up their sleeve as the Otaking would have me believe from their past endeavors. Gainax is my fave.
Oh yeah.... Those.
 Interesting Artwork has been found in Osamu Tezuka's locked drawers that his grand daughter recently found. Wild and crazy was the father of manga. I'm sure he has more hidden somewhere.

I'm loving this year so far.. Really can't complain as there is so much to do, see and play I really don't have the time.
