Unicorn Kid Needs U

You know that type of morning where you wake up wrapped around your Japanese Dakimakura Love Pillow, bathed in pools of rave lights and then wander out into an anonymous metropolis while incorporeal hands claw at your face and reality is repeatedly punctured by incursions of flashing psychedelia and translucent avatars of video game characters?…

S.S. Burnout: Tae Kwon Do

There comes a time for growth, there comes a time for change, and there comes a time to completely smack the world over the head with something no one saw coming. You guys have been the loyal faithful and the dedicated followers. It’s high time that WE (Team Mixed Nuts) return the love and provide…

San Diego Comic Con Day 0 Haul

What do Black Widow, X-23, and Batman have in common?  WE OWN THEM.   HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Unfortunately our boxes are still wrapped, so the pictures will come later.  🙂 Something’s off about X-23 though.  Why is she smiling?  Isn’t Laura Kinney supposed to be the 2nd best at what she does?  Killing?

San Diego Comic Con entry #1 – “Maybe the end’s the start that we need.”

This story never gets old.  A while back, I had to make a tough choice.  Girlfriend’s cousin’s 21st birthday in Vegas, or San Diego Comic Con?  I chose the comic con, and because of my indecision, I was only able to get passes for that Sunday.  This was back in 2008.  I vowed to never…

Twitchy’s Anime Rocking Chair – Metal Fighter Miku

The sound of a creaky rocking chair permeates the room you’re reading this in.  Yes.  Even in the bathroom where you’re probably taking a shit as you read this.  THERE’S A FUCKING ROCKING CHAIR IN THERE TOO RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR. *ahem* Babes in powered suits.  It doesn’t get old, does it?  In the mid-90’s the practice was…

Fall Anime List

Preliminary list.

m.o.v.e. – My favorite J-pop/rock/whatever music group.

In an earlier post, I talked about my favorite anime/manga, Initial D.  I wasn’t able to talk so much about the music, so I figured that I might as well start here.  Initial D’s intro songs were sung by a group called m.o.v.e., which consisted of..  yuri (Yuri Masuda (益田 祐里 Masuda Yuri?)) on vocals and motsu (Mototaka Segawa (瀬川 素公 Segawa Mototaka?))…

Twitchy’s Anime Rocking Chair – Azumanga Daioh!

Opening this entry causes the sound of a creaky rocking chair to fill the space you’re reading this in.  Yes, there’s a rocking chair at tea ‘n more.  Serious.   I’m gonna keep this one simple and sweet.   For you see, the anime I’m reminiscing about is also short and sweet.  Swort?  Sheet?  Ehhhhh……

Crossing Over – Nadeko Sengoku and the Internet.

The Internet’s always been good at corrupting things.  Look above you.  Isn’t she adorable?  She’s Nadeko Sengoku of Bakemonogatari, the SHAFT deconstruction of the harem anime genre.  This is the theme song that plays during her story arc, Renai Circulation. For those of you who’ve seen Bakemonogatari, you know as well as I do that the opening does NOT…
