From now onwards by letting me know that you have donated to Japan disaster, I will be posting to you a small postcard as gratidude for your donation!

So I really hope those who claim they have donated are genuine with their feelings!
One of the channel I have donated through, Red Cross Singapore

Easiest way is to make donation via sms to 75772. For every sms, S$50 will be donated to the “Japan Disaster 2011” appeal fund.
(You can double check this at Red Cross Singapore website if you are worried about scams)

Japan trip 20 March ~ 29 March 2011
Nyahoo~
Will be away during 20 March ~ 29 March to the anime kingdom! ^_^
In fact, tueac and kenneth will away around that period too! But I am on different itinerary with them.. (;_;)
Is there anything in specific anyone would like to see or for me to cover on? Feel free to drop your comment here!Will be covering TAF and ACE though…
Will be doing giveaway during end March to early April, stay tuned! (That is if I managed to squeeze some illustration from Reine Hibiki and Kazuki Yone or find something nice to bring back!)
Oh ya, will be also catch a concert there during my stay on the 21st, or rather, I changed my whole Japan trip plan and bleeded alot moolah to squeeze in this concert into my original confirmed trip, which was 23 March ~ 29 March. Because of this concert, I have to give up my original air ticket and purchase a set of tickets as they don’t allow me to change upon issued air ticket. So yeah, basically had a very bad experience in my first oversea trip in tickets booking.
Here’s the concert I am attending!

It’s a Sakura Wars event! Seiyuu Yokoyama Chisa (seiyuu of Shinguji Sakura) is going to sing 200 songs at this event! Kind of crazy but yes! (^_^)
Well, since it’s a Sakura Wars event, I definately have to die die drag myself there to experience the powaahh of Sakura Wars live!
Special guest of the live will be Takano Urara, the seiyuu of Maria Tachibana in Sakura Wars. I actually very much look forward to meet Takano Urara as I am a fan of hers for quite a while! Hurray~^^
Anime Contents Expo 2011
If you still remembered that the publishers made an ACE event out of the TAF boycott, their site is up! (In fact for quite awhile)
http://animecontentsexpo.jp/
I will be heading to both events if eveything goes smoothly, will cover these 2 events when I am in Japan! (^_^)v
Most likely will bring my laptop over and do updates… hehe…
Reine Hibiki in Facebook!
Finally here we have, the illustrator of Maria Sama ga Miteru joining facebook!
As you know, japanese are rather skeptic about joining other social site other than their own mixi. Sites like twitter also took awhile before their acceptance. She had a mixi account but since I was unable to get a working japanese keitai bango(mobile number), I could not create an account to join mixi. (T_T)
Since she just created the account nothing really much is updated, besides a photo of her illustration and a small photo of herself.
Catch her on

Konnichiwa~ Kaede desu~
This is Kaede, your new writer of Ani-Culture~
Been thinking of what to write as first post in here, thus, here it is! A self introduction… ^^;; A rather informal one too… Gomen ne~
Working as an exhibition designer, my aim is to hold my own anime exhibition in the future! I do illustration on my free time, but still a novice in illustration on wacom though…
The all time favourite anime/game of mine is Sakura Wars, a fan of it for more than a decade! ^^ I am always on the look-out for latest news on Sakura Wars and the seiyuu! However, only the Tokyo Hanagumi captured my heart… ~_~;
Feel free to talk with me if you love Sakura Wars!
I love yuri/yaoi titles! ^^ Pretty off track of yaoi nowadays though.. Mystery and heartwarming anime are my cuppa tea!
Current loves are; Sakura Wars, Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai, Maria sama ga Miteru, Hakuouki, Vocaloids, K-on!, Aa! Megami sama! Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni… etc. (too much to list out…^^;;)
Current Seiyuu list are, Orikasa Ai, Takano Urara, Yokoyama Chisa, Itou Miki, Hanazawa Kana…
Current illustrators/mangaka are, Reine Hibiki (Maria sama ga Miteru), Kazuki Yone (Hakuouki), Fujishima Kousuke (Aa! Megami Sama!, Sakura Wars), Hidenori Matsubara (Aa! Megami Sama!, Sakura Wars)…
The areas of anime I am going to cover will mostly revolve around illustrators, seiyuu, yuri/shoujo ai.
Stay tuned ne! ^^
