A Little Bit On The Live Action Akira Side: While the Warner Bros. adaptation may be on hold, French director Fabien Dubois has taken it upon himself to slaughter the classic by casting a generic white dude as a version of Tetsuo who wears a bootleg version of Kaneda’s jacket. Does no one get this movie?

Each month, Kaiyodo puts out a new super-articulated toy for its Yamaguchi series, usually based on a giant robot. This month’s giant robot is Eva Unit 04 from the Rebuild of Evangelion movie series.

A Little Bit on the Char CD Player Side: If you need to go all out after buying that Char helmet, check out this CD player, designed after his Zaku mobile suit. It’s originally from a mail-in-your-points-type program from Bandai, but one is on eBay right now. I was going to bid, but now it’s up to $35 plus $15 shipping. But it is a great collector’s item.

A Little Bit On The Tokusatsu Side: I didn’t think last summer’s Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle could be topped, and yet here we are with the trailer for this upcoming summer’s Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen. For the most part of 35 years, Toei has kept its Kamen Rider and Super Sentai franchises separate from each other. So not only will they be crossing over in this movie, but it will most likely include the largest gathering of Japanese superheroes up until this date.

A Little Bit On The Fooly Cooly Side: Although David Arseneau (a.k.a. DarkHarry) is taking a break from his Endless City webcomic, that doesn’t mean he’ll be taking a break from making kick ass art like this FLCL poster. You can buy it HERE.
