Out of concerns for concertgoers’ health, the 5/23 Osaka stop on the Idolm@ster tour has been cancelled. (Insert snide remark about how people who don’t ever leave their houses don’t have to worry about getting swine flu from each other.)
Hope you didn’t buy scalped tickets on YAJ!
Going to Anime Boston tomorrow, then to this other big ol’ city up north. Updates might be a little sparse unless I have internet in my hotel room and ample free time.

A 2ch poster found some strangely familiar pictures in the reader-submitted art section of the evening edition of the Kyoto Shimbun. A second poster bought a copy to confirm, and pictures were posted!
Bonus points if you correctly identified the pen in the second and third picture!

A poster on 2ch noted that since yesterday, the business hotel that he works at was getting a lot of calls asking if they got TV Saitama, the first network to air Haruhi. I guess they did, because 4 hours later he reported that the hotel just got booked solid! Now that is devotion.

The 480-page book detailing the history of the children’s manga magazine, a formative part of my youth, and home to more toy tie-ins than you could imagine, will be released on the 29th. The book will feature many interviews with famous contributors to the magazine such as Fujiko Fujio (A).

The guy at the link above noted that the guy speaking in the trailer has really good, easy to understand English.
