After nearly 2 years since its initial inceptions, Four Leaf Studios has finally launched a site for Katawa Shoujo that isn’t a forum for game development and discussion!! It has a nice clean layout and all the usual things you would expect from a professional game site included a short description of the story, character bios, samples, downloads and staff credits.
The front page has links to the forums and dev blog of course but the coolest thing is the rotating quotes that come up which link to all the different characters. For example “Can you see what I see?” links to Lilly’s section of the character page.

According to my blog statistics, 5 of the top 10 queries that lead readers to my blog is either some combination of “Rosario” and “Vampire” or Mizore, one of the main characters of Rosario to Vampire. I’m not quite sure why it is so prominent since I have not blogged about it much compared to a lot of other things. Although I often make fun of it, I finally admit it—I FUCKING LOVE ROSARIO TO VAMPIRE!! I’m not even sure why I like it so much.
Anyways, just so that potential readers can find the pictures they originally googled for, here are 40 high-resolution Rosario to Vampire pictures. Enjoy!

With this year’s SaiMoe tournament at an end, it looks as if Kagami is the superior Hiiragi twin. Although I am happy that Kagami beat Tsukasa I am a little bit disappointed with this year’s event as a whole. For one the top eight consisted of characters from only a total of 4 series; CLANNAD (3), Lucky Star (2), Bamboo Blade (2), and Hayate no Gotoku. Don’t get me wrong as I like all these series but some variety would have been nice like in 2006 when there were 8 series represented.

A few weeks ago, while I was in the middle of finishing Macross Frontier, Honya mentioned to me that DarkMirage was hosting an e-mail interview with May’n (the singing voice of Sheryl Nome) to commemorate her upcoming performance at AFA ’08 in Singapore. Anyone was invited to submit a question for the interview, and as a fan, I figured, “Why not?”
The interview was posted on the AFA website this afternoon, and to my surprise, my question was there! Considering the popularity of Macross F and May’n right now, I feel like I defied the odds here. It may be just one little question, but I’m glad that I was able to “say” something to May’n, somehow. It’s kind of like that one time I got to meet the members of JAM Project…
Anyway, the whole interview is pretty interesting. I’ve posted my question and May’n’s response above, and you can check it out the rest here.
P.S. It’s my birthday today! Happy birthday to meeee…
