news-little-busters-anime-trailerA preview trailer for the new and upcoming Little Busters! anime has finally been revealed. I for one was personally skeptical when I heard that the production company for the anime was J.C. Staff. I really hope J.C. Staff can deliver a quality series that isn't easily forgotten. The trailer isn't too bad so hopefully this is a good sign to a solid production. They are attempting to fill the very large shoes that Kyoto Animation left in their wake.

The anime will premiere in October 2012.

Watch the trailer after the jump!

tomDespite the rise of streaming anime online, Cartoon Network announced last week that the popular Toonami segment would return this week on May 26. FUNimation has announced yesterday that Casshern Sins and Deadman Wonderland would be joining the Toonami block.

Many of Americans became aware of anime through Toonami. Unfortunately after 11 years, Toonami was cancelled in 2008. Hopefully this is a sign for more things to come with Toonami back.

Good Smile Cafe Akiba

Though a little dated, better late than never. As with every winter, I make a yearly trip back to Asia and I always stop by Japan for a couple of days just to indulge myself in the wonderful place known as Akihabara. This time was no exception and with the short time I had, I made a quick stop over to Akihabara's Good Smile Cafe.

Akihabara is a constantly changing within Tokyo, and sometimes shops move around throughout the years, therefore, here is a convenient map for exactly where the Akihabara Good Smile Cafe is. Keep note, the pictures were taken in December of 2011. The location may have changed since I last visited.

I also happened to make several trips to Taiwan's newly opened Good Smile Cafe. Full review of the place can be found here:
