Well, this is pretty much all of the news for the day… unless you count that crazy bit of business with GAINAX forgetting where they fucking came from. I'm linking Han because his covers most everything. Sue me. Anyway, the site for Buzzer Beater Zwei (that's just me calling it that) is online. Just a heads up, it wouldn't load for me in Firefox. Opera was fine though, same with IE.

In more heartening news (mainly because it continues to prove what I've been saying all along), American anime releases are on the decline for the… you know… fifth year in a row. Ok, well that's a bit optimistic of me. It seems more likely that the hitherto idiotic business practices of anime companies are starting to level out. When you play to a niche crowd, you have to do so with concentrated quality of product. Something that lots of folks would argue is either subjective or in short supply to begin with. Of course, it still stands to prove my point that anime ISN'T popular in America in any meaningful way, despite the conventions and seemingly endless flow of idiots with an opinion on Cowboy Bebop.
