THAT Animeblog

For those who haven’t heard already (or didn’t read the tiny hint I gave in my previous Soul Eater post), Soul Eater is set to air on two different days each week. On Mondays, the regular daytime version is released, and on Thursdays a “Late Night” (LN) version will be released. Although everyone kept calling it an “unedited” version (which has been pissing me off soooo bad), this is not the case. The LN version features additional content. Now you’ve all read what I thought about Soul Eater episode one (it’s was awesome!), and I just finished watching the RAW of the LN version. So how do the two add up and what differences are there? As of right now, not many.

Most of you will be wondering what I was doing when I’m absent from THAT for the past few weeks. Well, I’m like Kon at the picture below:

School has not been always the most favourite place to go, but I’m ‘forced’ to because it’s for my sake and future. I’m quite busy with school, music lessons, school, writing fanfictions, projects, school, school…wait a minute, did I say school 4 times? You know how school is like, someday I’ll rename school into an Overload. I should announce that school is making my everyday life miserable, especially when it rains every single Wednesday. (Ok, that was a lame joke. It’s something personal.) and my back is aching.

Yeah, you read it right. THREE-POINT-OHHHHH! Lols. So Impz (despite numerous threats about me disappearing in 2 months due to laziness or alien kidnappings) has allowed me to run rampant all over the site. That’s half the reason I wanted to write here (the other half being our fantastic readers…duh!). To make things short, part of that rampant running has lead to the development of…

A NEW THEME!!!

Honestly, there couldn’t be a more perfect time for it. Spring is here and Shinigami-sama is busy hauling away all manner of dead things, while fresh ideas and innovation are rolling around the brains of bloggers and readers alike. With no further ado, here’s a preview of the theme along with a couple of pics to stir up a bit of excitement and maybe create some new ideas.

NOTE: I’m writing this both for the bloggers AND the readers. Everything may not apply to you, but it applies to THAT, so I guess in the end, it still matters. What I want to ask you, the reader, as you dive into this new theme is: what do you want out of THAT? What features do you always wish we would get, and which ones do you never even bother with?

Rawr.

Here’s a quick news update for those who read the FR: I got so pissed at Bleach and Narutard this week that I didn’t even bother writing a Friday Ramble…would’ve been more or a Friday Whine ‘n’ Complain. Even though it just started, there will be no FR during the month of April. I’m devoting all of my time April to check out the new shows, sort out my subbers, find (subbed) air dates, and figure out how I’m going to handle the series I’ll be covering. Also, if things get weekend heavy, I may change the FR to a different day. Who knows? We’ll have to wait for April to see. Also, as far as what would have been the final one for this month, it won’t be showing on account of no more Bleach until April 9th, and no more Naruto until April 3rd (bastards…well, not so much you Naruto). I’ll be posting my first ONE-Shot War sometime this week instead, and then…Spring 2008!

Speaking of Spring 2008, that’s what this post is all about! I’ve been checking every 2-3 days for new trailers and PVs and just general media on the animes debuting in April, and there’s finally enough promotional material out to make a decent “visual preview” post. This includes the “best” pv/trailer I could find for each anime (best = contains animated footage from the anime) as well as the updated air dates. Dates and times are Japanese based and taken from the FansubWiki. I only included new animes series, not sequels (with the exception of Code Geass R2 so you’d all STFU), and I included a quick thought of mine pertaining to each trailer. Nothing crazy, just a little something to, as always, show you I *kinda* care.

Videos and comments are linked/embeded within the spoiler tags under the titles (you can figure it out!). I invite the other THAT bloggers to post their two cents, just make sure you don’t edit anything in the Visual Editor or you’ll f*** stuff up (I found out the hard way).

AHHHHHHHH!! I’M MEGA-EXCITED ABOUT SPRING 2008!
