Changes To The Layout

I'm currently working on a new layout for the site. Expect it to be implemented shortly. In the meantime please continue to support us in our endeavors. I know I've been fairly inactive over the past few weeks, but trust me, just wait to you see what I roll out in the next couple of weeks, you should love it.

Crunchyroll Rolling In Investment Dollars

[url="http://www.crunchyroll.com/"]Crunchyroll[/url], an online anime and video streaming site, has announced that TV Tokyo has purchased minority stake in the company, for a total amounting to $750,000. Also according to Crunchyroll, there are negotiations with an undisclosed major book publisher as well. It's what the company refers to as "strategic investments."

In all honesty, I'm not sure how I feel about something like this. On one hand, it's a company offering a good service in a smart way furthering their profits and collaborating with a major company. On the other hand, "major company" is almost always synonymous with "profit margin." The problem there lies in how companies do business. Smaller businesses tend to play their cards closer to the consumer, keeping business by maintaining an unmatched customer service reputation. Larger businesses, which offer so much service, can squeeze profits out of every conceivable venture (or cut the venture if it's not profitable). Which means that if more money's to be made selling user subscriptions than on free viewing, ad-profited, then it may just happen.

Either way, that's just speculation. But any time there are big-dollar investments and "minority stakes" involved, it's a safe assuming to bet on there being a little more litigation in your leisure time.

What I've Been Up To Lately

I've been working behind the scenes a lot lately, I know I haven't really generated a lot of content but I'm working on it. A couple of new things we have here though:

[list][*]New light theme is available, it's called glass in the drop down if you're interested.[*]New header for the default theme made especially for us. [*]I replaced an inactive mod with a new mod. Welcome Endokun to the staff.[*]Added a staff page and it's almost finished.[/list]
Here are a few things you can expect to see some work done on soon:

[list][*]More content (downloads, wallpapers, articles and reviews)[*]A full featured about us page.[*]More activity in the forums.[/list]
So keep your eyes peeled as we keep rolling out the works.

Maplestory To Offer Equivalent Exchange

In Japan, the Korean-made MMORPG [i]MapleStory[/i] will be getting a tie-in with the [i]Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood[/i] anime. The update will include weapons, armor, character skins, and special items, and start on March 31[sup]st[/sup].

The idea of anime co-existing with online games isn't too absurd, especially since a number of MMORPG titles from Korea are anime-inspired and stylized to begin with. Although I'm not sure whether or not this should be news worthy, it's worth mentioning that the hobbies of online gaming and anime fanbases is starting to blur just that little bit more.

I'm not all that surprised.

14Th Detective Conan Movie Trailer Live

When it was originally released in 1994, anime [i]Detective Conan[/i] (known as [i]Case Closed[/i] state-side) involved a high-school detective genius. He's been turned into a seven year old child, robbing him of ten years. It's now 2010, with boy-prodigy "Conan Edigawa" - who would presently be 23 years old - is still seeking for a way to get his old (and now younger) body back. Instead, Japan is looking at the 14th movie in the [i]Detective Conan[/i] franchise, titled "The Lost Ship in the Sky." A [url="http://newcgi.toho-ad.com/asx/conan2010_toku2.asx"]half-minute[/url] and [url="http://newcgi.toho-ad.com/asx/conan2010_yokoku.asx"]minute-and-a-half[/url] trailers can be found on the official site.

I'm not too sure what else to say on the subject. Like any long-running show or anime, resolution is practically non-existent, so the watcher needs to be in it for the journey. Regardless of how time-warped the characters should be (but aren't), it's still a good series with enough drive behind it to keep making money. Regardless of my jaded look, I'm excited, so perhaps you will be as well.
