This 41-yr-old mf set fire with a grill lighter screaming “Die!” carrying bags of kitchen knives and hammers, ultimately killing 33 innocent victims. He had been sending death letters to Kyo-Ani for several years before this incident. And he’s still alive.
Sorry if I’m late on the bandwagon. I’m not a casting director but I produce many anime series and movies, and would love to discover new black and other POC talents if you’d like to DM me your resume and demo. Thank you and it would mean a lot if you could share this widely.
Here’s to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Ghost in the Shell without whom I wouldn’t be here today. 今のアニメ界があるのも私がIGに席を置かせて頂いているのも全ては攻殻機動隊のお陰と言っても過言ではありません。

This is actually a black and white photo. An artist drew color grid lines and your brain is filling the colors in.

To All of Those Enjoying Fena: Pirate Princess,
Thank you sincerely for continuing to watch the show. I am grateful beyond words. I hope you will see through the adventure of Fena and her team to the very end.
Kazuto Nakazawa - Director
Sorry I’m reposting. A letter from Nakazawa for all of us Fena fans for loving the show. I’m in tears… 😢😭 Be sure to stick with us as we share the final episode of
#FenaPiratePrincess
tonight.
中澤監督からこんな感動的なお手紙が。今夜最終回是非お見逃しなく。#海賊王女 #中澤一登
For FLCL: GRUNGE, FLCL: SHOEGAZE and UZUMAKI, do NOT believe or spread the info by none but myself and Jason DeMarco because most likely they’re all false. Please share this widely so that only the true information is spread.
It’s FLCL, so of course hyperbole is being flung about regarding FLCL Grunge, but just want to say for anyone who cares this is false information. The show was not written by anyone in LA or anyone from Adult Swim.
RIP Nemo. May you run free with Marbles. You were such a wonderful dog and I’m going to miss you more than words could ever describe.

UZUMAKI fans, we are working hard on the series and will have more updates for you soon. In the meantime, here’s a quick look at some storyboards for episode one. As you can see, we are using Ito-san’s manga as our guide! We can’t wait to terrify you all...
According to the FLCL character designer Sadamoto, Canti’s mouth was designed after Lambretta SX200 horn cover. I’m finding this out almost 2 decades after we worked on the show.

Hideaki Anno is 60 today. 60th birthday is one of the biggest birthdays in Japan called 'Kanreki (還暦)' which means Cycle of the Calendar, and you're supposed to celebrate with a red hat and vest, thus the reason for Anno's attire, except he's wearing an Ultraman shirt instead.
Regarding Uzumaki, please share this post widely and do not believe anything other than what I or
@Clarknova1
say. The project is definitely happening!
「うずまき」アニメは目下制作中でづので、現時点では私とJason以外の情報は一切信じないようにお願いします。

Rest In Peace Billy. Your performance as Kirisame on B: The Beginning was stunning and beautiful and you were always a pleasure to work with. My condolences to his family and loved ones. 英語版B: The Beginningのキリサメ(霧雨)を演じて下さったビリーさんご冥福をお祈り申し上げます。
We are sad to report the passing of Billy Kametz. Known for voicing Josuke Higashikata and so many others. His passion, talent, and his voice will be missed in this world.
We send our condolences to his family, friends, and loved ones. May he Rest in Peace.
This truly was just a coincidence, but my love and dedication for the show really shows, huh?

Aaron LaPlante, Doug Stone, Mona Marshall. Both the Jpnz and Eng dubs sound phenomenal. Thank you for giving these characters the most ideal voices a producer can dream of.
My dad who just turned 80 today is a survivor of spinal cord injury. 30 yrs ago, his Cadillac fell on top of him fracturing 17 bones and left him paralyzed. With intensive physical therapy and holistic treatments, he is back to his abled body. Never give up! Anything is possible.

finally launched on Netflix yesterday. This 6 episode series was made during the difficult times of the pandemic, but we all made it! Congrats to all the returning characters and welcome new characters to the B family.
There’s so much love around Fena: Pirate Princess and it tickles my heart to see some actors changing their Twitter names to pirates. I hope I can meet every one of you in person once the pandemic is over.

Is the flooor wood or linoleum? It may help to put a rug over it to absorb the noise. But again the sender of this letter sounds a bit neurotic.
I wish the whole world could listen to this new music by the pillows. The title will be revealed next week! Make sure you follow

Counterargument from Guillermo del Toro: “[A]nimation is not a genre for kids; it’s a medium. Animation is film. Animation is art. And it can tell stories that are gorgeous and complex that feel handmade by humans for humans.”
Hiroe and I co-produced the Eng version of Sakura Wars: The Movie in 2001. I got to see her for the last time about a month ago and she enjoyed my homemade flan. RIP Hiroe…
