Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles
—
Remember Robotech (the US adaptation of the Japanese MACROSS series)? Marxy does, and you can view a trailer for the new sequel series, THE SHADOW CHRONICLES, here. AICN has more info on this new follow-up series. Is it just me, or is there a Battlestar Galactica (the new series) vibe to the space battle scenes…

Moriyama House
Momus on Ryue Nishizawa’s Moriyama House (which also gets a write-up in the latest issue of CASA BRUTUS). Also, why are Japanese homes so cold? (One of my only peeves about living here.)

Marxy and the Studio
—
Marxy, Sound Studio Noah, and his follow-up album (NEOMARXISME II – DE LA SOUL IS DEAD). Update: And a canned coffee review for good measure.

New DS Feature!
—
Sorry, had to share this, it made me laugh (you know, cause it’s sort of true). Good to see Miyamato and Iwata in such good moods! Found at DS Fanboy.
