Via Pete<\/a>, here’s a look at a deluxe Russian edition<\/a> of Haibane Renmei<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Many in the otakusphere have been writing about the decade in anime. Uh, guys, you’re jumping the gun. Just as 2000 was the last year of the 20th century, 2010 is the tenth year of the first decade of the no-longer-new century, not the first of the second decade.<\/p>\n

Disappointing musical news: Kayo is leaving Polysics<\/a>. The band apparently will continue to tour and record, but it won’t be the same without her robotic persona and bleepy synths. Who else can possibly shake the pompons in “Peach Pie on the Beach”?<\/p>\n

I bought myself a Christmas present, the basic edition of Filter Forge<\/a>. It’s something like Reaktor<\/a> for graphic artists: you can download thousands of filters made by other users, or you can roll your own from the tools provided (if you get a fuller version).
