I'm not even sure where to begin. There's quite a few things I would like to talk about. I should have been updating this section a lot more often, but I've been busy. Watched quite a few movies just to get some material for the new Movie Review section. I've been socializing with family and friends a lot more, so I'm not just doing Otaku related things. I also went to a Pokemon card tournament. Made it to the semi-finals, but got my butt handed to me by a water deck. Anyway, quite a few things were happening in the Otaku world, and some of this news might be "old" to you, but I'll talk about it anyway. Never know when someone reading this might have missed out on one of them and actually would be happy to learn about it.
Persona 4 Anime
Some of you might have heard by now, but a Persona 4 anime has been announced. Yes, this teaser trailer is real. For those of you who are a big fan of the Persona games, I'm sure most of you are interested in this announcement. I own Persona 4 and loved playing it. I'm pretty excited to see an anime version of it. Mixed feelings come to play when I heard it was going to cover the same storyline as the game and not be set after the game like Persona: Trinity Soul (Based 10 years after Persona 3). However, I still like the idea of seeing the game come alive as an anime. The game already feels like an anime with all the cut scenes and artwork anyway. What are your opinions on this?

Gamer's Heaven
This next one goes out to my friend, Xero, who originally shared the link with me. As a gamer, I've always dreamed of having an awesome room filled with a ton of games and all the systems. The room would be game related in decorations and all my other gamer friends would be jealous. However, this guy actually did it. He even made a website to brag about it. You can find all the pictures here: GIBBY'S GAME ROOM
How To, Batman!
Credit for this one goes to my UK buddy, H4Z4RD5, for introducing me to this genius. How To, Batman! is basically a heavier set guy dressed up as the classic Batman who does a verity of videos that teaches you something. He covers many different topics such as how to handle a bully, how to do wine tasting, how to do your laundry, and even how to communicate with the dead. Each video has certain humor to it that just makes you wanna watch the others. I'll admit that not all the videos are as great as the others, but they seem to be getting better as he does it. It's educational AND entertaining, which is a rare find these days. You can find all there videos here: How To, Batman!
Artistic Friends
I have quite a few artistic friends from around the world. However, Kindra is probably one of the most talented due to her range of media and styles. She seems to change styles every few years, but quickly masters each and everyone. I'm sure quite a few of you have artistic friends, or are artist yourselves and don't really care about my friend Kindra. Why would I talk about her on here? Well, I recently found out that she got hired as a Cinematics Illustrator for 38 Studios. Some of you know them from their work on Everquest and Warhammer. I, being the type of friend I am, love to promote my friends whenever they do something amazing. I find that this is amazing and also wanted to use the excuse to show off some of her artwork.

A Musical Boba Fett
As much as I love a good trolling, I love amazing things people do even better. There's not enough going around, but when something like this pops up online, I have to promote it by sending it to everyone I know who would understand how great it truly is. For anyone who enjoys Star Wars and/or Zelda, this video should hold your attention for the entire one minute. I know it's not really news, but I felt the need to share it and would like YOU to post links in the comments section below to other great videos that deserve to be promoted. I have a feeling quite a few trolls will be posting the usual links, but keep in mind, most of us have seen it all so many times, it no longer phases us. We just click and move on.
