21 Prophets of Anime

Alright gang, the 21 prophets of anime article/interview is complete. I will be posting it this afternoon. Pass it around, shout out at the rooftops and share. Really interesting to see the perspective of where anime is going circa 1985 by a lot of the heavyweights from the industry. I will queue it up around 12pm today. Thank you everyone and PLEASE share.

Hey gang, sorry no posts this week. The 21 prophets of anime article is almost done and I really want to get that out first. In the mean time enjoy some Japanese funk/R&B from the 80’s. I can’t get enough of this music. I hear influences from all of the artists I grew up listening to. Ms.Booogieee has one of the best YouTube channels bar none for Japanese 80’s funk/R&B. Take care of yourselves and I promise it will be on and poppin next week with Newtype goodness.

For those who are curious. Some 98’s and early 2000’s.

Vacation is over and it’s back to business. What’s good family? I hope all is well with you and yours. I have not tallied any votes for the next issue so you still have time to vote. But I am excited to say that I am getting the 21 prophets of anime article translated and will be posted next followed by whatever you all picked for the next issue.

Jamaica was nice and I think I was sober for about an hour the whole time I was there. I missed talking to you all though ^_^. See you all later and thanks for reading.
