Seriously, if there’s a TGIF, there should be an OGISN: “Oh God, It’s Sunday Night*.”
Figures fans should check out this link from Canned Dogs, which rounds up links to a bunch of Wonder Fest coverage.
SaiAni notes that the official website for Night Wizard is up, and the anime is due to start this October.
Comipress has the line-up list for Monthly Shounen Jump replacement anthology Jump Square, including many familiar titles and a few new ones.
Ultimatum Talk reports that the manga Mousou Shoujo Otakukei, which was recently licensed by Media Blasters, is being made into a live-action TV drama.
This is old news, but what the hell? Here’s a repeat: Afro Samurai will hit theaters in Japan.
Tokyograph also has word on Taiki Nakabayashi, the amateur actor who was chosen to play Godai in the recent Maison Ikkoku drama special.
ANN has a follow-up on TOKYOPOP’s expired Marmalade Boy license - apparently it only applies to the first 24 episodes, but they still have a couple of years left for episodes 25 through 76. But their St. Tail license is long gone.
OMG! Rei Ayanami on Rolling Stone Japan! You heard it here, uh, last!
