Word on the street is that Iron Chef will be returning to the air waves in Japan this October. This is totally fantastic news! I am a HUGE Iron Chef fan. It’s so much fun to watch. Although I’m sure our campy English dub helps to make it as entertaining as it is. The American series of Iron Chef I can do with out. It just doesn’t do it for me. I guess it’s not as over the top enough. Anyway, I did some searching and haven’t found any early trailers or commercials for it yet so I’ll just put up the original opening. I wonder if they’ll bring back any of the original chefs or have all news ones. I hope Chairman Kaga hosts it. It wouldn’t be the same with out him.
Man, if there are new Iron Chefs next month and a new Sailor Moon next spring/summer…Â I’m going to be all kinds of happy for the next year. ^_^
Tissues, ice cream and energy drinks. What do these things have in common? They’re all products that have used as promotional tie ins with 3DS game Senran Kagura Burst. The energy drink is the newest one… sort of. Apparently when the first Senran Kagura came out the energy drink was also a promo item one could buy. But this isn’t any energy drink. It’s claim is that it’ll help you get a boner after your first “victory” so you’re ready for round two.

I’ve made more than a few posts about Senran Kagura Burst. The sequel to the 3DS fighting game which focuses on… well… boobs. 3D boobs. First there was the tissue box promotional item, now there is the double ice cream dessert. This ample treat will be at Akihabara’s Cafe Euro from the 10th to the 19th. I need to scoop my ice cream with more cleavage.
Last month Phantasy Star Online 2 went open beta in Japan. The fun part about open beta is that players get to see issues that would normally be fixed by the time the game is released. Issues like boobs going totally bananas. It’s hard enough not to stare sometimes, and this isn’t helping at all.
In the game industry beta can mean many different things to different studios, but generally it means that all the main features are in the game and it’s time for polish, balance and bug fixes. I imagine that this poor girls boob spasms will get fixed by the time it goes gold.
Senran Kagura 2, that busty 3DS game that we all love to hate because no one will bring it over to North America has released a new trailer. Sigh… I don’t know why I tease myself with this game, but I can’t just ignore it. I mean… holy crap! boobs and butts galore! I wish North America wasn’t so uptight with sex… and yet we can have uncensored porn. Go figure. o_O
I read this article today regarding a man in Japan that drew some smutty drawings on commission and then got arrested for them. Why? Did he get busted on drawing parody characters? Was he drawing loli drawings? No, that’s not why he found himself in hot water. What did it was the drawings where not censored. As many of you may know, in Japan it is illegal to sell or distribute uncensored pornography. It’s not illegal to own it, just to sell it. That’s gotta suck. Being in the business of smutty drawings myself, I feel for the guy.
How much was he selling his drawings for? $19 bucks. That it, he’s got himself arrested for $19 of uncensored porn that he drew himself. I realize that the law is the law and he broke a rule, but the censorship of art and free speech is just wrong. To tell someone what they can and can’t draw or write frees draconian to me. I don’t care what the subject is. Could you imagine if all my work had to be censored? I don’t think would even bother to be honest.
I wonder what the pictures where of… (no, the drawing above is not one of those drawings)
