Victoria Secret Angel
Model’s Outfit Very Similar to Evangelion Suit
About a few weeks ago, many Eva fans found out that a model
had been wearing an outfit that looked unmistakably like Rei Ayanami’s
plugsuit. Many people were confused by this because the movie was scheduled to
be shown this week and many people were wondering if this was just a way to
promote the movie, but this week Gainax announced that they weren't contacted
by Victoria secret regarding the Evangelion outfit. They added that they only
learned about the lookalike outfit through the internet and the (angry) fans
talking about it. Gainax has yet to take any legal or official action regarding
the outfit, but they didn’t seem too happy about the outfit. Victoria Secret
has yet to make an official comment.
Dragon Ball Z Movie
There’s a new Dragon Ball Z movie coming out next year and
there have been a few ads popping out that are giving us clues to what the
movie is about. Many people have been speculating that many foes before Piccolo
and Freeza, will appear in this movie (maybe Pilaf, Mai, and Shu). The movie is
set to take place about ten years after Goku beats Buu in battle. I’m a big fan
of the Dragon Ball series and I’m looking forward to this awesome movie. The
Z-Fighters are back!
Nintendo Legend Turns
60
One of the world’s most influential Japanese video game
designer and producer, Shigeru Miyamoto, turned 60 this week. He is best known
as the creator of some of the most successful video game franchises of all
time, including Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda (one of my personal
favorites), Star Fox (again, another favorite of mine), F-Zero, and Pikmin. He
has won multiple awards including Game Developers Choice Awards, Lifetime
Achievement Award, Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences’ Hall of Fame, IGN’s
Top 100 Game Creators of All Time, and has been featured in Time Magazines Asia’s
“60 Years of Asian Heroes”. All of us from Midnight Anime Radio wish him a
happy birthday!
Favorite Fall 2012
Anime Heroine Tournament
Even though it’s somewhat early to name
the best female anime characters of the fall 2012 season, Biglobe decided to
hold a vote to name the best heroine. Over 20,000 votes were casted and here were
the top ten female characters:
- Hidmari Sketch x Honeycomb’s Yuno
- Chunibuyo Demo Koi ga Shitai’s Rikka Takanashi
- Chunibuyo Demo Koi ga Shitai’s Kumin Tsuyuri
- Medaka Box Abnormal’s Youka Naze
- To love-Ru Darkness’ Momo Belia Deviluke
- Hayate The Combat Butler: Can’t Take My Eyes of You’s Katsura Hinagiku
- To Love-Ru Darkness’ Yui Kotegawa
- Sword Art Online’s Fairy Asuna Yuki
- Pet Girl of Sakurasou’s Mashiro Shiina
- Medaka Box Abnormal’s Medaka Kurokami
I’m actually not a very big fan of most of these heroines
but it’s interesting to see what other people like in an anime character.
