    ,

    Writer Joseph Badtke-Berkow covers the arts and Tokyo (and has contributed extensively to PAPER SKY), and he has a rather nice (I love the pared down design) site with some of his work.

Also in attendance was staff from TOKION, as…

    I haven’t read the DEATH NOTE manga — or seen the live-action adaptation that came out earlier this year — but I’ve heard good things, and October 3 (at 00:55) sees the start of an animated series on NTV. You can get a quick peak at what the show will look like from the official…

    ,

    According to the latest newsletter from GAS, they have just launched a blog for their ATMOSPHERE magazine, which should be here (it’s not loading for me though). Also, issue 4 of ATMOSPHERE should be out before the end of the year. Update: The problem with the blog is that it doesn’t load in Firefox/Camino. Loads fine…
