The author who introduced me to Anime and Manga was Katsuhiro Otomo with Akira. So I guess his works will always have a special place in my heart. I know he is quite violent but the depth of his stories and drawing quite simply leave me in awe! On the subject of Anime I would have to say Hayao Miyaz...

Kusa mura ya: Na mo shiranu, Shiroku saku. Entre las hierbas, una flor desconocida blanca. A friend sent me this haiku, she found it in a book on Zen and Japanese culture. Haiku is my favorite type of poetry. I used to always flunk Poetry in high school except when we were studying Haiku. :oops: Hey...

U.Y. RPG Minature Color Schemes.

Hi all! I just got the Usagi Yojimbo RPG book and I am starting to collect and paint the minatures that go with the game. I actually found a Gen minature in one of the Madrid comic book stores, but no others anywhere else. So while I'm waiting for the rest of the minatures to arrive from the US, I'v...

Ever get the feeling you were born a few centuries too late? I do, especially when I'm wearing my hakama. I got it for Aikido and Iaido but now I cannot go to class, I still try and wear it whenever I get the chance. Makes a great costume piece for parties! I've never been good at the traditional wa...

Okay so I thought of adding in my own 2 cents worth to this Topic. In Madrid there are quite a few Japanese restaurants, most are top dollar joints and I do not know anyone who has dined at one so I cannot judge them. But my fiance and I have discovered this wonderful little restaurant near the cent...

Although I missed about of a third of the film, (I fell asleep :oops: ), and thus completely lost the thread of the story, what I did see was quite beautiful. But it still didn't live up to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Wo hu cang long). (Okay so I admit it I'm a big Chow Yun Fat fan) I do like a ...

Me cachis en todo!!!! Darn it all to heck!!! I went to the Expo Comic Madrid a couple of years ago and it was so pathetic that I was quite dissatisfied. So when I saw the posters for this year, I thought that the Usagi Yojimbo poster would probably be the coolest thing about the whole Expo. I never ...
