Are you *fucking* kidding me? They call him Captain Marvel in a Marvel-published webcomic?

DC! For all that is fucking holy, call him Captain Marvel in the comics! You can do this! Stop with this "The Captain" nonsense.

Model Kits & Chill workshop at Anime Los Angeles returns! I grabbed a bunch of kits this last week when I visited Gunpla Style & Neohappyland, and then Mecha Warehouse had to offer a great sale as well.

(Though I should add some kits with a mono-eye along with some non-mecha)

Today's anime #wcw is Aina Sahalin from Mobile Suit #Gundam: The #08thMSTeam. She's a Zeon pilot who wants to help her brother end the One Year War, but a chance encounter with a Federation pilot gives her another perspective. 🍷 #VintageAnime #Bandai #Sunrise #NozomiEntertainment #Kanpai
Aina wearing casual clothes is delighted to see someone. Aina wearing her Zeon normal suit inside a cockpit. The hatch is open because you can see snow on the controls. Aina with Norris Packard on her right, wearing a fancy dress for a ball. Aina wearing a black dress, and staring angrily at someone.

Today's anime #mcm is Shiro Amada from Mobile Suit #Gundam: The #08thMSTeam. This ensign becomes commander of the 08th Team after some thrilling heroics, but will his world view change after a chance encounter with a Zeon soldier? 🍷 #VintageAnime #Bandai #Sunrise #NozomiEntertainment #Kanpai
Shiro with a slight grin after a mission to save a village. A wounded Shiro has a stern look while standing on a frozen mountain. His hands are wrapped in bandages due to frostbite. Shiro casually draping his shirt over his shoulder during a mission briefing. Shiro in the cockpit of his Gundam.

Densha Otoko, 20 Years Later: Why the TV Drama is Still Great in an Ever-Changing Otaku Landscape: Kaylyn Saucedo, explores Densha Otoko, with a focus on the TV drama. She examines the work and why it remains a valuable work within the greater otaku subculture today.
Densha Otoko, 20 Years Later: Why the TV Drama is Still Great in an Ever-Changing Otaku Landscape
Twenty years later, the TV drama adaptation of Densha Otoko remains undefeated in the realm of Japanese drama shows. It’s a wonderful depiction of real anime otaku and their interests that manages to humanize geeks and nerds for normies who might not always understand where we’re coming from and builds a realistic, meaningful love story fueled by the power of pure camaraderie and friendship.

Today's anime #mcm is D from #VampireHunterDBloodlust. This dhampir/dunpeal is the best vampire hunter you can hire, even though common villagers aren't able to fully trust him. But he's very capable of holding his own against full-blooded vampires. 🍷 #VintageAnime #Madhouse #DiscotekMedia #Kanpai
Dressed in all black, wearing a large hat and wielding a long sword, it's D from Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. D meeting with the men who hired him for his current job. Being a dhampir allows him to walk in the sunlight, but too much exposure will weaken him. D seated atop his trusty horse. Unfortunately, the horses never get named. Close-up of D attacking with his sword.

Today's anime #mcm is Mephisto from #DemonCityShinjuku. This mysterious man helps out Kyoya & Sayaka, but he has no hope for humanity as a whole. 🍷 #VintageAnime #Madhouse #DiscotekMedia #Kanpai
Mephisto as very pale skin, long black hair, and a long, red trench coat. Mephisto sitting casually in his gothic office. Close up of Mephisto in a stairwell. Sign behind him says Pool along with a few billiard pool balls, with the rest of the words cut off. Mephisto brandishing his weapons: scalpels that explode.

Today's anime #wcw is Sayaka Rama from #DemonCityShinjuku. The president's daughter will need a lot of help from Kyoya to rescue her father and save the world. But at least she's a fast runner and has a laser ring. 🍷 #VintageAnime #Madhouse #DiscotekMedia #Kanpai
Sayaka, with her wind swept hair, about to enter Shinjuku. Sayaka's default facial expression: shocked & disturbed. Sayaka calms down the two-headed dog Kuro. Sayaka standing next to a cracked wall.

OK, one more: Between Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro (Toriko), Nobuhiro Watsuki (Kenshin), and now Kenya Suzuki (Oshiete Galko-chan), the greater Japanese anime and manga industries have made it clear that they're eager to go to bat for pedophiles so long as they're profitable.

That's... fucked up.

A bit of a retread, but I'll probably never forgive MAPPA for what they did to Sayo Yamamoto.

The studio ground up one of the most brilliant minds the anime world has seen in a generation, and discarded her, while having a big mad over her signature work because THEY misjudged its potential.
