  • Tetsujin 28

    —

    There’s something I really like about this teaser poster for the live-adaptation of TETSUJIN 28 (also known as Gigantor in the North America), which comes out next Spring. The official site for the film also has a teaser trailer, but you don’t really see much. Update (16/08/23): The image is no longer available.

  • Massage 2

    —

    Seems like the second issue of MASSAGE (and some info in English here) came out last month, but I haven’t spotted it anywhere yet. I’ll have a look this week at Tower Records in Shibuya (where I picked up the first issue).

  • Superslave

    —

    You’ll notice a new logo in the sidebar. I’ve always been a big fan of the Superfuture site, and as of now I’m writing reviews for them, as well as news bits. My first review, of Pause Cafe, is up. And a big public thanks to Wayne, co-creator of the site, for the excellent Superfuture…

  • NADiff Versus Kuhaku

    —

    Craig of Chin Music Press describes his experience with NADiff: Finally he put it down and said. “This book doesn’t fit in this store… but it’s interesting. And very handsome. So I want to try it out.” NADiff is, for all purposes, a strictly fine-arts-related store. We at CMP just happen to love it and…
