TV anime trailer for AKB0048
Since the anime AKB0048 is based on the girl group AKB48, I figured I’d throw this trailer up. Enjoy! It looks cute and space agey and girly all at the same time. Read more about the anime at the AKB0048 official website. Also take time to check out the character page, where you can see [...]
RAM RIDER- “HELLO starring Orange Range” PV
Slap my face! We get a poorly animated video of the new RAM RIDER single “HELLO” which features sumo wrestlers dressed up in mascot uniforms. The whole video is just a series of drawings that are just slightly animated in motion. Barely. Is it still awesome? Abso-friggin-lutely. Heck you have Orange Range on board and [...]
nano.RIPE- “Esoragoto” clip
Everyone’s favorite anime theme song band nano.RIPE is back with their own darkly animated video for “Esoragoto.” Stuck in a world of picture frames, there is some very cool cartooning going on. Nano.RIPE’s single sounds pretty good too. It’s the OP to the anime Sankarea. Read about it here and see a boy with cat [...]
Akai Kutsu- 書を持ち僕は旅に出る MV
Check out the adorable stop motion paper doll parade MV by Akai Kutsu for the single “書を持ち僕は旅に出る.” What an excellent way to start the day. Very cute, and an excellent plucky folk song that will keep you marching along. Find this track on the new album Sarab Toge no Machi slated for 4.4.2012. Preorder from [...]
Aki Akane- “FlashBack” PV
You know if Aki Akane has returned, you’re getting more animated goodness. The song “FlashBack” is a bit pitchy, dawg, and the animation is one of those WTF anime deals. It also just cuts off for no reason, so I don’t know if we are getting the full PV or not. Eh? Anyhoo, I’m guessing [...]
twill- “Stand Up” PV clip
Wanna go on a blimp ride with twins? Of course you do! Use the force of twin will. Wonder twin powers activate the form of “TWILL.” So the girls have a new single “Stand Up” which actually has them standing up on their hot air balloon blimp ride, because there is no where to sit. [...]
Sakura Merry-Men- “Wonderland” Extended Clip
Explore a wonderland with a kind old hitchhiker in the PV for Sakura Merry-Men’s “Wonderland.” This is an extended clip of about a minute or so, but we get a look at some very cool animation with a style that reminds me of a fantasy version of Professor Layton. Neato. The song ain’t half bad [...]
Onso9line- “kokoronomamani” anime MV
This video is for the birds. Make friends with a green onion and fall in love with the cute “kokoronomamani” anime MV from the group Onso9line or Onsoku Line. I try my best never to say this… but Kawaii. This is on Onso9line’s new album Alternative slated for 2.22.2012. Preorder from Yesasia or CDJapan. Take [...]
