Just a quick note: You should begin to a more normal post schedule this week. I had to backup and reinstall the site database, remove a bunch of old theme junk files and all sorts of other fun stuff. When it’s all done, the site will be running quicker, cleaner and meaner!
Also, some of you may notice that the design has been switching around a bit during the last couple of days. That’s because I’m doing an experiment working on some new features and couldn’t wait to add them to the site. Sorry for the schizophrenic nature of it all, but I promise it will be worth the mess!

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.
It’s cool, adding gradual enhancements is a great way to bring about perfection.
