Very entertaining but also extremely creepy. It pretty much has every camera movement replicated. One thing though - it's a lot less fluid than the original Razz

I don't even want to ponder how much time that must have taken...

That...is kind of creepy. I mean it's neat and whatnot, but the fact they look so...strange makes it...well..strange. Anime smile

Wow, that is incredible. It must have taken so much time....

I saw a version with FMA action figures....I'll have to dig it up, as it was quite funny.

Actually, that kinda stuff doesn't take that long. Me and my friend made a lego movie like that (and yeah, it had to be shot frame by frame then animated and junk), and it probably only took that person like 1-2 hours, tops (and considering people spend like 5+ hours on AMVs, I'd consider that not much time).

Did anyone else catch this in the source code? Fairly normal keywords, until the end:

Google has always ignored meta tags.

they just posted torrents for the two ASOS "episodes" on Txxxx Txxxx.

They have their own tracker, and I'd say it was definitely a third party who submitted the torrents links to TT (but I do wonder what percentage referrals came from there similar sites)

Most recent page source comments now say:

Code:
<!-- It may still live... but will it bind? -->
<!-- IT IS DESIRABLE -->
<!-- What... what is this image? -->
<!-- IT MUST BE FED! MORE DATA! -->
<!-- What is it that you seek? -->
<!-- WE COME TO RULE YOUR WORLD -->
<!-- Let us be slightly more subtle in our ways -->
<!-- IT IS ALL OR NOTHING -->
<!-- Next month will be quite fascinating -->
<!-- RELEASE THE NEWS! LET THE WORLD HEAR OF HER GREATNESS! -->
<!-- We need a stage -->


I wonder if they're going to announce it in a upcoming con this February. I hope it's the cast list.

Been wondering about this as well. More specifically, it's the fact that one of the old source code comments, "We must send a delegation to the east coast," hasn't exactly been fulfilled yet. There are two possible cons I have in mind that would make sense in light of all this, but I shall wait and see.

That bridal image (whatever sort of item it is, pencil board?) is so pretty! I'm a sucker for anime characters in wedding gowns--I love all the pictures Takeuchi Naoko did of the Sailor Senshi in gowns, they're some of my favorites.

I'd love to get my hands on something like that.

Agreed with the bridal image. They're just so damn gorgeous along with the gothic lolita outfits! Embarassed

Though I'm really not fond of the tan lines picture. Heck, I'm not a fan of tan lines; there's just something unnatural about girls having them.

It's an L-style file folder (two sides sealed, two sides opened). In fact this is my second item with this picture. The other is an pencil board came with Megami magazine.

The list price is NT$ 90 (US$ 2.80) for one set of two (Set 1: bridal gown + bunny suit; Set 2: Haruhi alone and Haruhi + Mikuru; Haruhi + Kyon is a separate item). If there were enough orders...

The one with Kyon & Haruhi in kimonos is kawaii Anime catgrin. Maybe I can find some of at my anime shop one day.

PS: Note to Bandai: Nix the idea to post LED SOS signs all over the country. Apparently my city can't tell an ad from a dangerous device Rolling Eyes.

That was pretty well done with the dolls and all for the sequence. So when are real people going to perform this? Laughing
