The promised time has come. Soul Eater 31 came with a new OP sequence and, as the rumors said, with the epic Tommy Heavenly6 song Paper Moon, which we first heard on episode 28.
Great animation, but Resonance will still be missed.
The full single isn’t out yet, but you can grab a tv rip from gendou.
edit : Had to try it at work along with some other files to realize volume was way low XD. I made my own rip now, from AAC audio, normalized and cleaner at the beginning and end of track. Take this one or gendou’s :p

Nice :D. November 4th is over and now it’s time for change!
/me grabs remote and changes channel
So, this month I decided to not fail the season and start a good number of new series. A few caught my eye and this post is about the first two. Both promising comedies.

Hyakko is the story of a shy girl who starts in a new school and meets 3 other girls, one of them just plain crazy (XD and I predict will pretty much steal the show). Together, they’ll create hilarious events out of simple situations.

Toradora seems like an awesome mix of series now… It includes a guy with scary eyes (Karin?) and a little aggressive girl (Shana?) that’s a bit sloppy (Nodame Cantabile?) and will end up hanging together as strange friends, under her dominance, of course (Zero no Tsukaima?). It’s actually a very promising formula, so I’m looking forward to it.
Hyakko is currently being subbed by Himatsubushi (ayako?) and Toradora by gg.
A change of look, for the lulz (hit ctrl+F5 if you must XD). Thanks to Esco for the header design. Some new season anime posts coming up soon ;D

The first thing to remember is, this is still beta. That said, the browser seems decent. It holds true to Google’s pursuit of starting with minimalistic features and building up from there. The interface is clean and responds fast. Threw an acid2 test on it for the hell of it. Passed it fine (as any other nowadays browser worth mentioning). A few issues I’ve noticed would be the noticeable lack of an ad-blocking feature (much needed in today’s internet browsing), and the fact that the installer was not proxy-friendly. Not an issue for me at home, but at work I had to resort to an offline setup file (not provided by Google yet).
And from what I’ve read around, there’s already a new security bug for it (or rather an old bug that resurrected due to Google Chrome being based on an old version of WebKit. Nothing to worry about if you’re smart enough not to fall for silly social engineering tricks.
All in all, this is a good first step for Google into the browser world, but there’s still a long way to make it a viable alternative to Firefox, Opera, and that other browser that once hogged almost all the market. 
A third season of the anime adaptation of Coharu Sakuraba’s Minami-ke manga series has been reportedly green-lit in Japan. Minami-ke tells the story of three sisters who live on their own and depend on each other to solve whatever problems may arise. Sakuraba has been drawing Minami-ke in Kodansha’s Weekly Young Magazine since 2004. The first season of Minami-ke (pictured at right) ran on TV Tokyo in 2007, while a second season ended wrapped up in March. Another Sakuraba title, Kyo no Gononi (Today in Class 5-2), has been made into a video series and is being animated for television this October as well.

Can’t wait for this… no, seriously. I need it now!
According to the store window advertisement of the first volume of “Black Lagoon” novel, the production of its third season was announced. The advertisement only tells the decision of the production. The airing schedule is unknown.

Hell yeah
Hope we get to see more Roberta ;D
So, in one of the fastest buying decisions recorded in Oso’s history for expensive products, I bought a 32″ LCD TV; a Samsung LN32A450 to be precise.

All specs on link, but bottom line, it’s big, it’s awesome, and I’m currently typing this from it, for the hell of it 
Finally, FireFox 3 is out. Links haven’t updated on their site yet, only the banners, though.
An officially unofficial europe site has them in Spain Spanish and British English (the bizarro languages of their american counterparts XD)
I’ll wait till I get home to see if the official site has them by then. And probably a few days to install, until there are available add-ons for the new version.
UPDATE : Just as I finished this, the official site brought the links up.
