Michi: If only is was a suggestion that Viz was gonna bring out the manga here. I still haven't seen the anime, either. Went OOP before I could afford to get it. *sigh*

Megatokyo has been running on teh interwebs for 10 years now. 2001; ... Vols 1-3 were Dark Horse; 4 & 5 were CMX, while it was up, and 6 was by DC Comics (when I purchased it). I can't say for sure who has publishing rights to the later 3 volumes right now. <<;. but 2008 is grossly incorrect.

Bringing back good old Kimagure Orange Road. Too bad I won't be around for this year's convention though Sad

As for Maon Kurosaki, while I enjoyed her songs from Index II, she isn't exactly anyone "special" at this point in time. Her HOTD song wasn't exactly memorable since it was only 1 out of 13 themes in the show and not to mention that the show itself ended up being a disappointment overall. However, I do look forward to more of her songs in the future should she get further opportunities. She might not be the best signer out there given the already fierce competition, but maybe she'll find a niche that no one else can fill.

Wow, a couple of old skool stuff!

Izumi Matsumoto of KOR and its 1980's J-disco pop, and, even though it's still running, Megatokyo's Fred Gallagher, one of the original "but don't call it manga!" OELers.

Not many kiddies will know them. Laughing

I'm a big fan of Megatokyo, and I'm very happy to know that Fred will be there. I've been following the webcomic since it's original release.

Interesting to note that in the early chapters of Megatokyo they make several jokes at the expense of Duke Nukem Forever! How things have changed Laughing
