animediet's Feed Releases for July 2010

Melancholy Of Occult Academy, オカルト学院の憂鬱。 Yes, this is great! And I will tell you why this anime is great! Concept First, the concept is pretty interesting. It’s about NostraDamus Prophesy, which predicted un gran Roy d’effrayeur (a great Ki...

These are just the best of the photos we took this year at San Diego Comic Con! Includes some exclusive pics of the Marvel/Madhouse collaboration and some character designs for the upcoming Iron Man anime, as well as some excellent pictures of Yoshit...

1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its ow...

The San Diego Comic Con has been around for years, but nothing draws in the media like scandal. So it is unsurprising that the media flocked to rumors on Twitter of a stabbing, complete with (entirely fabricated) gory details like blood-drenched shi...

2:02 PM—Talking about Priest. Saw the Hall H movie preview for this yesterday. I find it interesting that a manhwa is the first potential breakout for TP. The same artist, Min-Woo Hyung, is doing another one called Ghost Face which TP is also publish...

8:04 PM – we are in front row. I’m going to have great pictures up on this article soon. Panel has not yet started. 8:07 PM – today’s presenters (according to the signs up front): Kristin Adams and John Rieber from G4. Jeph Loeb from Marvel. Masao Ma...

New License Announcements 1:08 PM – Highschool of the Dead manga licensed. 1:08 PM – Higurashi manga (sidestory). 1:10 PM – Betrayal Knows My Name. It seems they are focusing on licensing shows that are either very recent or currently on anime… 1;11...

See our last panel report from AX and the licensing bonanza. 6:01 PM – Funi and the anime industry: it’s not as bad as it looks. The bad economy is a big factor. After all, AX was huge…recall the “DON’T PANIC” theme from 2008. They are committed to c...

What I saw in the first 7 minutes of the show totally blew my mind. I thought this was going to be your average love dramady… What? A Guns-blazing, mecha suit wearing chick that can call up weapons out of thin air? A sequence of gun fights and weapo...

Nabeshin Interview – AX 2010 Press Junket from Anime Diet on Vimeo. The hilarious anime director Nabeshin (aka Shinichi Watanabe)–who made such titles as Excel Saga, Puni Puni Poemi, and The Wallflower–talks to Anime Diet for the second time since PM...

Didn’t get to go to Anime Expo this year?   Wish you had been there to check out all the cool cosplay costumes?   Well, ask and you shall receive!  Here is just a sampling of what you missed… (NOTE:  These pictures vary in quality due to most of the...

…And in the center of the front of the front, too! Of course, I had the press badge on. But if you thought I pushed/forced/yelled my way to the front, you would be dead wrong, man. It’s a strange story, so read on if you want… I can’t even remember w...

Oh my God I must be getting old. I’m finding Kazehana so fucking hot damn! and her drinks a ton, too! Just like me. I don’t know why I didn’t notice her in season 1, I guess it’s because she didn’t have much time. Here, finally, Yukana’s character is...

So what’s with anime lately? Girls’ (yes I said girls, cause no realistic depiction of women have been featured) hygene, feminine bodily issues, fluids (you wish) and all that other stuff that make fetish films so popular in Japan are being ported on...

May’N in Concert (Excerpt) – Anime Expo 2010 from Anime Diet on Vimeo. May’N did a concert at Anime Expo 2010 this year, along with Megumi Nakajima and special guest Yoko Kanno. Here’s a ten minute excerpt from the beginning of the concert, with just...

Ooh, plots, intrigue, funny characters (though admittedly, a little bit one-dimenional), interesting though rather shallow and easily constructed backstory and world view,  this one is gaining my favor so far. Am I the only one that think Sion looks...

We met 3 people from Japan who were purely fans of May’N’s singing (lol) and told us them were not otakus. Well, they would know that, eh? In case, below are some of their wares and a couple of them even wored some wares. 61Sf6Q1q5uL_SS500_ May'N f...

May’n Interview – AX 2010 Press Junket from Anime Diet on Vimeo. Here’s one of our biggest interviews–with May’n, the singing voice of Sheryl Nome in “Macross Frontier”! We ask her about her influences, and also what it was like with the legendary co...

We at Anime Diet were fortunate enough to be part of a wide-ranging press conference with seiyuus Horie Yui and Kitamura Eri! Our staff got to ask many questions along with others about Toradora! as well as their roles in shows like Kanon, Angel Beat...

Mornin' Go watch this show. I am a total Zombie fan, and this show is amazing. From the very beginning the action grabs you in the bowels and rips them out.  Everyone needs to learn that in a zombie apocalypse, you have to destroy the head.  We lear...

EDIT, 11:36 PM: corrected video now up. Sorry for the confusion. Michael Lattanzio Interview – AX 2010 Press Junket from Anime Diet on Vimeo. Here’s a no-holds-barred interview with the CEO of the SPJA, Michael Lattanzio, about the promise and the ch...

Kyle Hebert Interview – AX 2010 Press Junket from Anime Diet on Vimeo. An interview with English voice actor Kyle Hebert, who has done much voice acting work in dubbed anime and in video games. He’s a very down-to-earth and funny man, and talks about...

So I met this gal online and then she decided to come to this year’s AX. So I wanted to interview her and on the last day. we hooked up and I interviewed her. Her mandarin was perfect (not in the video, sorry)! Enjoy her Nino-san costume and be sure...
