The December 2007 issue of Anime Insider is now out. Here are some of the articles you’ll find in issue 51:
- Robot Repeats – Five things you’ll see in just about every Gundam series
- Beauties and the Beast – An intimate glimpse into the battle between light and dark waged by four pretty boys and one makeover-resistant goth girl in ‘The Wallflower’

- Death Note A to Z – Everything you wanted to know about Cartoon Network’s new series but were afraid to ask
There’s a lot of great stuff in this issue, although I’d like to warn you: they tend to throw out spoilers to a whole lot of anime series. If you don’t like spoilers (I don’t), you may want to read it with one eye closed…

I love anime. Specifically, series involving any of the following things: weird fantasy elements, super-powers, robots, aliens, wicked humor, crazy villains, horror, ninjas and samurai. I guess that means I like a lot of anime. I am pretty particular about the quality of animation and voice acting. If the character designs and animation quality aren't of über-quality, I quickly loose interest.The first anime-related series I ever watched was Battle of the Planets - otherwise known as Gatachman. The first true theatrical anime feature film I saw was Akira. My first exposure to manga was later in life when I read Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy.There are so many incredible elements of Japanese culture. Some of the most exciting to me are the style of design and storytelling. I'm a web designer & illustrator, and I find myself looking to Japanese design for inspiration all the time.Anime blogging has taught me even more about Japanese culture and anime than I ever expected, and I continue to learn more every week. In fact, I'd love to travel to Japan. Rachel and I hope to visit sometime within the next few years.
