K-On episode 10 is out and all I can say is “MOE OVERLOAD!”
Kyo-Ani seems to be pushing the moe envelope a lot this season with the addition of Azu-Nyan. In this weeks episode we see her with a super kawaii tan, they even gave her an outfit to extenuate the tan line. SUPA MOE. Altogether today’s episode was another cute look into the world and free time of the light music club girls, nothing spectacular but fun to watch. This and Haruhi have become my most anticipated shows this season. Thank you Kyo-Ani.

Ive added some new friends to my friends list. The guys over at Clockwork Machina! are very skilled artists and ninjas! I find that by going to their site, I learn about things that most otaku blogs dont talk about.

I have been conflicted as of late. Conflicted to what I am supposed to do with my life, and where my life is going. At first I thought that by following certain figures I could find a path to take. I would sit and wait for Danny Choo to post one of his motivational essays on the net and read it passionately in order to find my faults. Soon after that I realized that all I was doing was reading, I wasn’t acting. I have enrolled in college and done a bang up job of that thus far, yet I am still failing at becoming something more. I feed my depression with Anime goods and with rubbish on the net. This has become a problem. I will not make any attempt to lie here but I am a Proud Otaku. The only problem is that my depression has taken advantage of my hobby and used it against me. I used to keep a box of precious anime and various items from japan, this box happened to weigh a mere 40 pounds. Now this box has multiplied and become 3 boxes. Together weighing a disgusting 150 to 180 pounds. I have lost the meaning of presious. I used to keep only my favorite anime from childhood and art books in that box in order to keep them safe and to use them for inspiration. There were a few figures in that box too. Now there are tons of things that are not that important to me. It would appear that I have just been buying things to feed my boredom and depression. I have become a recluse and an unhealthy person. Recently I have started a workout regiment to relive the stress and problems. The workout has a flaw thou. I am hurting myself over and over again, this makes me more lazy from recovery. I become so lazy that i don’t do anything productive. This stops now! Starting this week I am putting a plan into action. This plan I speak of has been in my mind for quite some time but I have been to scared to use it, correction I have been to self absorbed and greedy to use it. I shall update daily on my site what I do. Tomorrow I start with clothing.
I read in a book not to long ago that the best thing to so to change your outlook on life and your life altogether is to start a workout regiment, I have already done this. I have also started doing my school so that I am prepared to live in Japan in the next few years, and so I can get a better job. The next thing is to change your wardrobe. Do this in a way that reflects you. In the book “The Game” Style changed his entire wardrobe. A friend of Style, Mystery, wore things that stood out to women and things he enjoyed. I have decided to get rid of clothes that do not represent me. I will only wear suits and aristocratic things for important social gatherings and I will have only a punk rock wardrobe. I will do this because I have gone down a path I did not wish for myself in my younger years. I will now get back on that path. I will be who I want to be and not who anyone else wants. Suits are a great thing to have because they can be used for any occasion. Punky clothes are great for everything that isn’t formal. It stands out and if you know how to dress you can look good and not like a bum.
This change starts tomorrow. I will keep everyone up to date on my plans progression as it happens. Note, I am not getting rid of the Otaku in me. I am making him better. I don’t want to be that otaku that sits and degrades his life. I will make it to higher places. Like Danny Choo says, nothing will come to you and nothing comes from just sitting. You have to go get it. I will get it!
If you would like to join me in this little Otaku Project please leave a comment on what you would like to gain or what you are doing to reach your dreams.

To commemorate the release of the Second Season of Haruhi, here is the lovely Yuki Nagato.

I preordered the new Dir En grey dvd just recently. I will start to do review on different J-pop and J-rock on my site in the coming weeks. I really hope that this dvd is worth the insane price tag lol.

I’m going on another Trip to Tokyo soon. I cant wait. The only problem I`m having is finding nice restaurants. Does anyone know of any?

Babeland the #1 adult goods store in the states is now part of Production-ga`s affiliates. Please check them out.

So Ive decided to partner with a few friends to hopefully, no finally fund my hobbies. This is my second big step towards working in the Anime/ Manga/ Otaku industry.

So far my good friends at J-list and Amazon have joined with me.
Be sure to hit them up. In fact J-List just got a great new Hentai manga called The Elder Sister, and Disguising as a Woman and Comic Artist. 
Im waiting till payday to get mine since I decided to order my Haruhi volume one hardcover book from Amazon… Finally It came out.
