Japan is always coming up with awesome things. Here's a really good example:

Assault Girl: Hinako The Kentucky

You're probably thinking, "Wait WHAT?". This short movie (part of a compilation of other movies) consists of giant robots, machine guns, Japanese girls, Sand Whales, explosions, and you guessed it, Kentucky Fried Chicken. It's quite obvious, the director said "let's make a movie for Tony Nguyen, because he's awesome". I friggin' love giant robots, whales, and fried chicken!

So what, you want to see it? Here it is!

Pretty awesome right? It gets better. The guy who directed it is turning it into some epic theatrical feature. That's right THEATRICAL FEATURE.

And if I'm not mistaken, KOTOKO is doing the theme song? I LOVE KOTOKO!

It's friggin' AMAZING. I can't wait for this to come out.



In other news, another amazing movie called GOEMON was released onto DVD not to long ago.

Though I would pay big money for the "Ultimate Edition Collector's Box Set", turns out, it's not subtitled in English. So now I have to wait for it to be released internationally or be fansubbed. That's quite disappointing.



But yeah, I think that's all I had on my mind. School is keeping me very busy.
