Otaku News: 16th May!

The city of Beppu, in Kyūshū, known as one of Japan's major hot spring resorts, has been collaborating with Tokyo-based anime studio, Tatsunoko Production Co. to promote tourism and overnight stays at its resorts. 

The city will display such things as life-sized panels and figures of characters from varous Tatsunoko poperties.

Tatsunoko Production is also creating an original anime featuring characters from Beppu and various Tatsunoko characters. 

The promotion is set to continue year-round, with features such as a stamp print collecting event, a screening of the live-action feature film adaptation of "Gatchaman", the unveiling of an original Beppu character, and a video clip of Hatsune Miku!

Anime/Manga News(14th May): Learn Japanese The Yaoi Way!

And now for a quick news update!

Okay friends, how many of you ever wanted to learn Japanese, but just couldn't bring yourself to do it due to the severe lack of Yaoi motivation?
Well, there's no need to curse your unfortunate luck, because now a way has been made for you!

The Japanese company "Otome's Way" has just announced the release of "A Fujoshi's Guide to Japanese Book 1"! This text book uses yaoi (boys-love) scenarios and themes to teach beginners Japanese.
This e-book is in full colour, features flash animation, sound clips and is the first in a series of boys-love learning experiences! ("Oh myyy", as Gerorge Takei would say).

This exceptional book is available through the Otome's Way Online Store for a mere $20USD, and will soon be released in Apple's iBook Store for $29.99 on May 20th!

So why not learn Japanese the fun and flirty way? ;)

And in case you weren't quite convinced, here are some sample pages:

Now don't say you don't want it! ;)
