Majestic Prince Anime Reveals Space Robot Mecha Designs

The official website for the Ginga Kikōtai Majestic Prince anime revealed on Tuesday the designs for the robot mecha that the five-member "Team Rabbits" group will pilot in the series.



AHSMB-005 Red Five - Forward Leader Type (piloted by the leader Izuru Hitachi)


AHSMB-001 Blue One - Forward Type (piloted by the arrogant pilot Toshikazu Asagi)


AHSMB-002 Purple Two - Control Type (piloted the self-assured but naive control officer Kei Kugimiya)


AHSMB-003 Rose Three - Booster Type (piloted by the airhead girl Tamaki Irie)


AHSMB-004 Gold Four - Gunner Type (piloted the chatty military otaku and gunner Ataru Suruga) The official website has posted three images of each mecha. Hiroshi Tani, the mecha designer for Team Rabbits, has also posted a comment on the website. The website has already posted the character designs for the five "Team Rabbits" members. The story follows humanity after it expanded its frontier into space in a quest for resources. Advances in genetic engineering research allow humans to adapt to the new frontier, leading to the advent of evolved children such as protagonist Izuru Hitachi. He enrolls in an academy city called Gurantseere to fulfill his mission of "protecting humanity" with robotic mecha against an unknown race. Rando Ayamine and Hikaru Niijima's Majestic Prince manga began its serialization in Monthly Hero's inaugural issue last year, and Shogakukan Creative published the second volume of the manga in December. The staff for the Majestic Prince anime includes director Keitaro Motonaga (Katanagatari, Jormungand), character designer Hisashi Hirai (Mobile Suit Gundam Seed), and script writer Reiko Yoshida (K-ON!). Studios Dogakobo and Orange are animating the series. The anime will premiere in Japan in April. [Via Yaraon!] Images © Sotsu, Fields, MJP Production Committee

Shota Sometani, Kaho to Star in Live-Action All Esper Dayo! Show

Actor Shota Sometani (xxxHOLiC) and actress and fashion model Kaho (Otomen) will star in the live-action television adaptation of Kiminori Wakasugi's All Esper Dayo! (Minna! Esper Dayo!) comedy manga.
The psychic comedy follows an ordinary (virgin) high school boy named Yoshirō "Yocchan" Kamogawa (Sometani). His life changes overnight when he wakes up with the ability to read other people's minds. Yoshirō is not the only one to gain powers in his town. Teru-oichan, an (apparently virgin) worker at a café near Yoshirō's school, gains telekinesis — but he uses it for sex toys. Yōsuke Enomoto, a (probably virgin) senior and former basketball player at Yoshirō's high school, gains teleportation — but only while naked. Kaho will play Miyuki Hirano, a strong-minded "yankee" and Yoshirō's classmate. Shion Sono (Suicide Circle, Himizu) is directing the series. The series of 12-minute episodes will air on TV Tokyo on Fridays starting in April. Wakasugi launched the manga in Weekly Young Magazine in 2009, shortly before he ended the popular comedy Detroit Metal City the following year. Kodansha has since published two compiled book volumes of All Esper Dayo! Wakasugi's other ongoing comedy manga is the Fist of the North Star spoof Kappei. Viz Media published Detroit Metal City in North America, and New Pictures released Toshio Li's live-action film adaptation with Ken'ichi Matsuyama (Gantz, Death Note, NANA) in the lead role.

Hello Kitty Can Battle DC/Marvel Heroes in HeroClix Game

WizKids' parent company National Entertainment Collectibles Association Inc. (NECA) signed an agreement with Sanrio to produce a line of Hello Kitty goods, including having the iconic character in WizKids' HeroClix miniatures game. The game already includes comic book heroes like Spider-Man and Batman, as well as other franchises such as HALO and The Lord of the Rings. In the game, figures are put on a grid map and fight one another in turn-based combat and deal "damage" measured on a dial ("clicks").
NECA announced the agreement at the New York Toy Fair this week, but the miniatures' appearance are still under wraps. The company will also release home good items, action figures, statues, and calendars. The famous cat is getting her own graphic novels by Viz Media this fall, got a clothing line from Forever 21, and was also featured in a number of franchise cross-overs like Street Fighter, Vocaloids, the rock band KISS, The Ring film, One Piece, and Evangelion over the last year.

Zetsuen no Tempest Manga's Main Story to End Next Month

Manga artist Ren Saizaki announced on Wednesday that the Zetsuen no Tempest: The Civilization Blaster manga's main story is ending in the April issue of Square Enix's Monthly Shonen Gangan magazine on March 12. However, Saizaki with writer Kyo Shirodaira and story collaborator Arihide Sano are continuing with a spinoff story.
The main story centers around Yoshino Takigawa, an ordinary high school student with a mysterious friend named Mahiro Fuwa. Mahiro made a deal with a witch named Hakaze to hunt down the killers of his parents and sister. Now Mahiro is missing, and Hakaze confronts Yoshino. Yoshino finds himself involved in a crisis that may doom the entire world. The manga debuted in Monthly Shonen Gangan in 2009, and Square Enix published the eighth book volume last month. The fantasy mystery manga inspired a television anime series last Fall that is still ongoing. Aniplex of America is streaming the anime on Crunchyroll under the title Blast of Tempest.

عزاء متأخر

الي صديقي باسل اعلم بان علاقة الصداقة بيننا ليست بالقوية ولكن اسمح لي بان ادعوك صديقي
وقفت يوم وفاة والدك مع نفسي وقلت يا تري ماذا لو توفي والدي ولكني سرعان ما ازحت الفكرة من راسي فلم استطع حتي تحمل فكرة الفقدان لكن كان هناك صراع في داخلي وانا اراك واقول من اين له هذا القدرة علي التحمل والصبر ،انا لم اكن اعرف عن والدك شئ ولكني بحثت ونظرت الي ما قدم من انجازات لهذا الشعب المكلوم فصرت انظر الي والدك بانه الطبيب البطل الثائر هذا ما جعلني اقول بأنه"تشي جيفارا فلسطين".
ومضت الايام وانتهينا من مرحلة الثانوية وكل منا ينظر الي مستقبله ،وفجأة وبدون مقدمات علمتُ من بعض الاصدقاء بان والدتك السيدة الفاضلة قد توفاها الله فقمنا بكتابة عبارات الدعوة بالمغفرة والرحمة لها ، ولكن ها انت تعود من جديد وترسم صورة اخرى للصبر لم اعهدها من قبل وكلي امل بان تبقي ذلك الشاب المؤمن بالله الراضي بقضائه
اعلم بأن المصاب جلل وبان الكلمات لن ترُجع الاحبة لكن هذه طريقتي في مواساتك ادعوك ان تدعو لهما وان يرزقك الله لُقياهما في الجنة آمين

ماذا سأستفيد؟

نعم ،هذا السؤال يتبادر الي  ذهني كلما هممت وامسكت كتاباً وقضيت  معه فترة من الزمن اقول في قرارة نفسي لماذا لا أفعل كالباقين واقول الكتب مملة وتشعرك بالصداع وكل هذا الهراء-للعلم انا كنت اؤيد هذا الكلام ولست من المولودين علي حب الكتب- لكن لا ادري، اشعر بعد قراءة كل كتاب اني اضيف لعمري عمراً اخر واشعر باني قد حزت علي ميدالية ذهبية في الاولمبياد-مع العلم ان وزني لا يسمح اصلاً بالمشاركة في الاولمبياد-لذلك ايها القارئ الرائي لكلماتي انصحك بان تمسك كتاب ولو لبرهة وليكن فكرك ليس القراءة من اجل الدراسة والامتحان بل القراء لتكتسب شئ جديداً
ومع ذلك من انا لانصح واوجه وانا الوافد الجديد علي هذا العالم الرائع.

من اين انت؟

انا من هناك , من بلد الالف بطل وبطل انا من بلاد لا تعرفوا اسمها انا من بعيد,من مكان لا تري لاحد سلطة علي رايك تكلم وعبر وخذ شهيق وازفر لن يعد عليك احد الكلمات ولا الانفاس اصرخ اضحك ابكي المهم ان لا تبت في نفسك المشاعر لانها سرعان ما تنفجر
