January 1, 2012

Happy-New-Year-bleach-anime-3322578-800-542

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Well let me be the first to say welcome to the year 2012!!!!! Hopefully you all had a great 2011, but while I had some interesting moments this past year, their were some not so great moments in my life as well. However, I feel that this year is going to be the year of great success not only for me but for Anime Full Circle as well. But before I go into what I have in store for you guys this year, let me take just a moment to look back at AFC in 2011.

One thing to mention is that just this past month, we had manage to reach over 75,000 visitors on AFC. For me this is another great accomplishment that shows many of you are still loyal to us and that you find us an interesting source for the latest information about the world of Japanese Animation and Otaku Culture. But while I wasn’t able to post much this past year, one of my new year’s resolutions is going to be to post more often and come up with new and innovative ideas for the site.

But were not stopping at just new posts, I am also going to bring you tons of new anime, manga and video game reviews along with a look in the world of popular graphic novels including works from Marvel and DC Comics. This will bring a new meaning to AFC in which we will go full circle and beyond. So get ready guys for the release of Anime Full Circle 2.0, the rebirth of AFC!!!!!

So until next time, remember that there is a ton of great anime and manga out there. All you have to do is find it. Ltrs.

Misc Stuff-In Memorandum: Steve Jobs 1955-2011!!!!

October 5, 2011

jobs_macworld1984

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Well we have a bit of breaking news that just came forth just about forty-five minutes ago that I would like to bring to your attention. For those of you who haven’t heard yet, For Apple CEO and Founder Steve Jobs passed away this evening after a long battle of Pancreatic Cancer.

As the current CEO Tim Cook stated to Apple employees earlier today,

“ Team,

I have some very sad news to share with all of you. Steve passed away earlier today.

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

We are planning a celebration of Steve’s extraordinary life for Apple employees that will take place soon. If you would like to share your thoughts, memories and condolences in the interim, you can simply email rememberingsteve@apple.com.

No words can adequately express our sadness at Steve’s death or our gratitude for the opportunity to work with him. We will honor his memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work he loved so much.

Tim”.

Source-huffingtonpost.com

Overall, I am sadden to hear that such a great visionary had his life cut tragically short. Steve was one of the greatest visionaries of the twentieth century.  May his legacy live on now and well into the future.

For those of you who would like to send your memories, thoughts, prayers and condolences to Mr. Jobs family, you can send them to rememberingsteve@apple.com

So until next time, remember that there is a ton of great anime and manga out there. All you have to do is find it. Ltrs.

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Well after two long months without creating a new post, I am happy to say that we are back baby!!!!! But not only that,

Kaiba Winning-Ninjabridge

I’M WINNING!!!!!!!

Well not exactly, but it sure feels like it. So your probably wondering what the heck happened to me these last two months? Well with the liquidation of Borders going into the last two weeks along with my continued job hunting escapades, I had to put some of my blogging on hold. However, I am happy to announce that we are back and I will be blogging at full force in the coming weeks.

Along with that, I will also be covering Catherine and also King of Fighters 13 for Xbox. Unfortunately, their will be a slight delay since I had to use the money that I was saving up for my Xbox 360 to take care of other business in my life. Along with that, this year we will be turning three years old. And I am very happy that I have been brining you the latest news and commentary relating to the anime industry and everything in between. Thus as we start our fourth year in anime journalism, I feel that this will be one of the best years for the industry yet.

So until next time, remember that there is a ton of great anime and manga out there. All you have to do is find it. Ltrs.

Everyday when I check the stats, I see that we are gaining new and new readers all the time. We are well over the hundred hits mark and we just recently reached over two hundred and fifty hits in one single day.

This means that there are many of you out there who care about blogs that give a personal touch on the anime industry. Overall, I do keep the site interesting by brining you interesting features such as AFC Adults Only, Anime Remix and AFC First Looks just to name a few. I always like to come up with new ideas for the site and I can assure you guys that there is more coming down the pipeline as we speak.

Misc Stuff-Under A Bit Of Stress At The Moment!!!!! Will Resume Regular Posting Soon :)

March 24, 2011

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Now for those of you loyal readers out there know, for over the last few months I have been trying to find full time work. But so far, I have been having some bad luck with my search with either companies that are not hiring or I end up getting an interview but I didn’t get the job. Overall this has been affecting me personally in which I have been under a lot of stress.

Thus my performance here at AFC has been lacking some of its luster. I haven’t been able to post as much as I wanted to or watch as much anime as I wanted to along with other feature segments such as Anime Remix, Anime March Madness and my Pokémon Game Play coverage as I wanted to. But please keep in mind that AFC will not be shutting down any time soon and that I do from time to time suffer from these periods of Bloggers Block, but I have been able to get over it and improve my performance overall.

So to all you loyal readers out there, please be patient!!!!! I am trying to do the best I can to get back on track, and once I do, I can assure you that AFC will be better than ever. Thanks you guys with your cooperation and until next time, remember that there is a ton of great anime and manga out there. All you have to do is find it. Ltrs.

Misc. Stuff-Anime March Madness 2011 Round One Update

March 17, 2011

Friendship

*Sports Center theme plays* VO: “This Is Anime Center”

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Well the first round of AMM 2011 is well underway, and from what we have been hearing from insiders, it has been a real grudge match. Here are some of the highlights.

In the first half we see Yomi giving Tomo a very excruciating facial after Tomo saying that she was “BAKA” for not  recording her favorite tv show last night. Hey Tomo, there is a brand new invention called “TiVo” ever heard of it???? But the action does not stop there, later on we see Tomo sneaking into Yomi’s room in which she makes fun of her pen name “Tearful Little Diet Girl” on a live radio show.  That really had to hurt Yomi, but it does give Tomo the edge at the end of the first half.

As for the second half, it gets really ugly, and I mean really ugly. Unfortunately the producers  have declined to air the footage from the second half since it is absolutely too raw for TV. But at the end of the second half, it is a split contest in which each competitor has gotten equal opportunity over the other.

So at this point we are heading into overtime for this match. What will happen, check back tomorrow for all the exciting action plus exclusive commentary and previews of match-ups two and three right here on Anime Center. So until then, remember that there is a ton of great anime and manga out there. All you have to do is find it. Ltrs.

*Hugs and Hand pounds All-around Everybody!!!!*

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Well it is time once again for one of AFC most popular traditions, so get ready because it is time to get ready for the second annual Anime March Madness tournament. And for those of you who though last years tournament was a real grudge match, well hang on to your seats because this year it is going to get ugly!!!!!

Now for those of you who who did not follow last years tournament, here’s  how it all goes down. Twenty-two anime, manga and video game characters will go toe to toe to determine who is the best in the world of otaku culture. Over the next few weeks, we will be brining you live coverage of each matchup with all the highlights, press conferences, trash talking and much more. But in the end, only one character will be victorious and he or she will claim the title of Anime March Madness champion of 2011. So let’s not waste anymore time, let get right to the first matchup.

Round 1- Yomi Vs. Tomo

And for round one of the tournament, we have a re-match of sorts of last years tournament. Well actually, these two haven’t had a chance to compete last year due to the tournament being canceled. So let get ready for two best friends with different personalities to put their friendship aside and take their personalities to the battle field. It’s Yomi Mizuhara and Tomo Takino from Azumanga Daioh.

Now I am not going into much details about the tale of the tape for this match-up, but if you would like to check out the background for the match, check out my post from last years tournament to get up to speed. And don’t forget to check back on Tuesday for all the highlights from this match and a preview of round two action.

Misc Stuff-The 9th Anniversary Of September 11,2001:May We Never Forget!!!!!!

September 11, 2010

9-11-anime-pic

Hello and greetings fellow otaku,

Now as most of you know, today is a day that changed not only the world, but the way we live our lives forever. Today is the ninth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks.

Now how many of you readers out there remember where you were on this very sad moment in our nations history. Were you spending time with your family? Were you at your job doing your normal routine? Or were you just starting your day and realize something was completely out of place? Well wherever you were, you will probably remember it with this tragic event.

So I would like to take just a moment to honor those who managed to risk their lives to save those who were trapped in the debris of the World Trade Center, and to those who are in the armed forces who are currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan who are fighting to protect our freedoms that we cherish everyday. And to those who lost loved ones on this tragic day, we keep you in our thoughts and in our prayers. Take care and God bless!!!!! Ltrs.
