Well, I finally have all of the nominations for the Otakubowl. I'm going to start the competition on March 20. I changed my profile section above so that the Otakubowl info appears instead of my usual info. I have added some new stuff to it, including a list of all of the contenders. When the competition begins I will put the match up grids at the top.

I already have the match ups lined up. However, I'm not going to post them because I don't want votes on match ups until they take place. And there will only be one match up per category each day. So no one will know what the match ups will be until I post them for each day. Also, the easiest way for me to put the match ups together was to just draw them randomly. So, I had no part in deciding them. That would have been very hard for me to do. And as it is, with the random drawing, there are some match ups that are tough ones.

I think that about covers what's going on with the Otakubowl.



There has been, and will be, some exciting stuff going on in anime. Or atleast in my opinion. Many of you may or may not know about Cartoon Network airing some Hayao Miyazaki movies later this month. What's really cool is that the airing dates correspond with the Otakubowl. ^_^
There was an article written on otaku.com about the Miyazaki movies on Cartoon Network on February 25. Some of you may have read it. If not, and you hadn't heard the news. Spirited Away will air March 18, followed by Princess Mononoke on March 25. Castle in the Sky will air April 1, and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind will air April 8. All four films will air at 7:30 p.m.

I had seen Spirited Away last month when it was on Cartoon Network. But I had not seen any other of his films. So, recently I decided to check some out. I have now seen Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, and my favorite, Howl's Moving Castle. Next I will be watching Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind today or tomorrow. I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with these movies. I'm anxious to see more of them. I highly recommend seeing them to anyone who has not.

Also, Turner Classic Movies has aired his movies off and on as well. I know that on March 25 they will be airing Spirited Away at 2:00 pm Eastern. So, I guess if one misses it on Cartoon Network on the 18th, they can catch it the next weekend. Then they will be airing Castle In The Sky and Porco Rosso on May 5. Though, they will be on in the middle of the night.



Now even more spectacular news. Cartoon Network has started showing Trigun again. I know, they have showed it many times. But Trigun is my favorite anime and I can never get tired of watching it. ^_^



Well, I think that's all for now. I'll be off to visit sites now. Take care.

Catcha later...
