Th-that-that's ridiculous! Tell me you live in Japan. There's no way that type of car will be seen as cool here in the US unless I'm missing out on something.

Yuri has now taken the title of otaku on Neowin, hands down. I like anime but not THAT much.

I'm curious about this now. How much do those cars cost (including the paint job)?

I found some more examples of otakus translating the art onto other types of transportation:

Even bicycles. :p

I live in the UK which isn't too bad on things like that also it'll be something i take to cons and the like my regular car will be a Lancia Stratos.

Haha, the UK does have a crazy ricer culture there so I guess it is acceptable on your side of the pond. Only around 500 of the Stratos were created, how are you manage to get that one?

Hmm, interesting. I was browsing Reddit and stumbled upon these two pics of a user's desktop and desk. Otaku culture = creepy.

Beat this, Yuri.

You haven't seen Melonpan's room have you? :laugh:

Radish?

/facepalm

Whatever makes them happy I guess. I can't see myself looking into anime as much as I am now when I finish up college. The ecchi school girls just seems ridiculous even now. Japan has a real weird perspective on young adults (females) posing in swimsuits and sell them as "ecchi" mags to adults.

Ah, Japan... You even had trouble putting child pornography into law because of the heavy role the Yakuza and others play in that industry.

He was my Idol :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Watched the second OVA of Denpa Teki na Kanojo. It was decent but it doesn't really beat the complexity of the first OVA. Totally new characters (though Hikaru was bloody annoying as before :/) and less gory action but it delivers with an atmosphere full of mystery, mind games and an unexpected twist at the end (divine retribution :D) (Y)

Character design was really done well and it was great to finally see Ame's face behind that long fringe, she kicked ass being her monotone self :yes:

Radish?

An interesting episode of Bleach, going back in time with Kouga and his Zanpaktou (Y) Is this possibly why Byakuya is trying to uphold his (or the Kuchiki family) pride being alongside Muramasa because of the way Kouga is linked to his family? :unsure:

ghibli-unveils-karigurashi-no-arrietty-the-borrowers.jpg

Studio Ghibli has announced its next movie will be an anime adaptation of famous children?s story ?The Borrowers,? to be entitled Karigurashi no Arrietty with a theatrical release due in 2010.

The movie will be an adaptation of Mary Norton?s famed ?Borrowers? series of children?s novels, begun in 1952, which describe the adventures of a race of tiny people living amongst normal humans.

However, instead of being set in fifties England the story will be transposed to the Japan of 2010, with the titular protagonist Arrietty being a 14-year-old girl.

Cinematic release is due in the summer of 2010, doubtless with an international release planned in short order after this.

With the novel already a classic, Studio Ghibli looks set to strike gold once more?

This could be awesome.

^ You might want to remove the hotlinked image.

ANN has detailed info on the new film (Y) Another Studio Ghibli winner on the way with a director better than Goro no doubt :D

Radish?

Yeah i watched the trailer for that and i am not really sure what the point of the movie is supposed to be. Unless it is either a Recap or a series summery in a movie form. Still going to watch it though.

    • yeah it seems to be Edge only. The dialog buttons work as expected in Chrome and Firefox. The phone is using Android 16 (OneUI 8.5) and Edge version  149.0.4022.53
    • I'm not aware of this issue, but to help the other guys.  What version of Android are you using? Did you try a different browser? To see if Edge is the issue here.
    • I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article? Here is a better article so you actually know what is going on and answers questions you had in other comments --> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/05/speed-boosting-low-latency-profile-is-one-of-the-improvements-coming-to-windows-11/ It is unclear if one will be able to disable the new profile at this point but I am not seeing any reason why one would.
