OP: “Future Stream” by sphere – Eh, I don’t really like the OP. It’s really standard, and there’s just nothing that particularly stands out about it. I also wonder what it is with this new fad of creating group names for anime singles that are actually just sung by their seiyu. Read more

OP: “Falling Down” by Oasis – Wow. Just wow. I absolutely love the OP. Contemporary rock track paired with modern graphic design influenced animation makes this easy on the ears and eyes. Read more

OP: “Atashi dake ni kakete” by Omokage Lucky Hole – Is this going to be the first Shaft OP that I don’t absolutely love? While I don’t think it’s particularly terrible, I just feel like both the song and animation are a couple decades behind. This is probably intentional, but still…. Read more

OP: “Cagayake! GIRLS” by Aki Toyosaki with Yoko Hikasa, Satomi Satou and Minako Kotobuki – Huh…..cute high school girls and a really bad, yet slightly catchy song by the voice actresses. Where have I seen this formula before? Read more

Thanks, Moyism! – Nana Mizuki LIVE FIGHTER (part 1?)
First epic raws, and now this!? Moyism (aka Santa Clause) recently held a giveaway on his blog that offered his extra copies of Nana Mizuki’s LIVE FIGHTER to lucky contestants. I entered at last minute just for fun, but to my surprise, I ended up winning the Blue Side of the dvd!
For those actually unfamiliar with the popular idol, Nana Mizuki is a renown and talented seiyu singer. Some of you may recognize her roles as:
- Oboro in Basilisk
- Fate in the Nanoha series
- Tsugumi in Jigoku Shoujo
- Hinata in Naruto
- Touma in Minami-ke
- Moka in Rosario + Vampire
And among several others, she also plays Rin in one of my recent favorites, Rideback, as well as Rina in the seemingly popular White Album this season. Aside from her impressive amount of voice acting roles, she is a spectacular singer to boot! Mizuki is easily among my top favorite seiyu because of this, and I listen to all of her albums on a fairly regular basis.
You can read the winning entries here, and to my knowledge, there should be a part 2 to tie things up in the near future!
(….I’ve also heard that if you act quickly, Moy will be giving away his entire figure collection!!!)
