Furikiru ze!
So if you weren't paying attention, the W series got two spinoff direct-to-DVD movies. Kamen Rider Accel was released in April and chronologically takes place after the OOO/W movie that is released this month (so don't watch it unless you're comfortable with some spoilers). The next one is in July and features Kamen Rider Eternal. This movie was pretty awesome, and it's more story featuring the characters from W. The guest stars were pretty good too.

So I kind of picked this up without knowing what it was. Going through it, it appears to be a home DVD version of the Data Carddass game. Obviously it's not interactive in the same way, but they do use DVD menu tricks to give you some options and customize your "game" somewhat. As such, there's footage of the opening and ending for HeartCatch several times throughout the video. But there's some footage featuring other Precures and songs from the other series, so it was still a pretty interesting watch. Guess that'll be it for Precure, just this and DX3 which comes out this summer.

If I may have a moment of your time, I'd like to talk a bit about dog breed discrimination. Where I work, there's a pet kiosk for the city dog shelter. Most if not all of them are pit bull or pit bull hybrids, which is really sad, since statistically half of dogs in shelters end up dying there. Anyway, a friend wanted to point out some links for you all to see:

Thanks for your time

There will be some server downtime tonight as I transfer everything over to the new server. The process will take a couple hours. Once this is done, the site will be up for most people fairly quickly; however, for some it may take up to 24 hours for the site to come back up.
Edit: By tonight, I mean the early morning of 5/21 in the central daylight timezone.

Tori daaaa!
The word:
Kayui 痒い 【かゆい】 (adj) itchy, itching, (P)
This kanji is funny. The outer part on the upper and left side is a radical for illness, the inside kanji... the kanji for sheep.

Transcript 11 A new year's episode. There's a Net lingo corner and a life counseling corner. They talk briefly about the game coming out and the anime ending.
If you follow the thread, you'll note that there are some corrections coming up. I'll post that on the front page as soon as I get a chance to review them and fix the scripts.

One is a 14 year old girl who has excellent hearing and the power to mimic seven voices, the other is a robot otaku. The two of them are spies!
So I finally got around to rebatching this series. I've always loved this series despite it being one of #TV-Nihon's least popular shows. The stories are funny but also heartful and sincere in a way that is kind of sad. There are a lot of quirky bits and quite often the story is unpredictable. It was just a really thoughtful and unique experience.
The actors are recognizable too. Nico is the young girl from Memoirs of a Geisha. Kazumi (correct spelling) is the manager from the drama Rookies. The father's been in stuff. Robo is from Death Note and Detroit Metal City.
Anyway, I need people to seed this new torrent. It includes the DVD versions for 1, 2, and 7 while omitting the original TV broadcast versions. Please seed this for people interested in checking out this wonderful hidden gem. If you need the files for initial seeding, please get them off the DDL forums.
