Cat + Bunny = Batsu!
Alanna's let me in on two funny, adorable Korean animations. The actual animation work is great as well. I wonder what whoever made these things is up to animation-job-wise.

Richard Linklater: Sci-Fi Savior?
There's a new trailer out for the latest effort from Richard Linklater (Waking Life), which employs his signature rotoscope animation. It's, surprisingly, a serious science fiction film based on a Philip K. Dick story: A Scanner Darkly, and it stars Keanu Reeves, Robert Downey Jr., Wynona Ryder and a few other people you wouldn't expect. The animation looks like its used very, very well, and having an actual story will be a step up for Linklater. The effort has more potential than any science fiction film I've seen the past several years. Hopefully it will turn out well.

Pokemon and Cancer
POKEMON apparantly causes cancer. No, it's not what you're thinking.
Someone on TZ pointed out this quote from the research team:
"Pokemon works by controlling the pathways that are required to transform normal cells to cancerous ones. The researchers found that when they 'knocked out' the Pokemon gene in mice, that transformation was blocked and cells do not become cancerous."
If Pokemon gets "knocked out" cells don't "evolve" into cancer. I love scientists with sense of humor.

New TZ Design; Review
Toon Zone News has a brand new super-spiffy design. Also, read my review of Gregory Horror Show Vol. 1, one of the oddest things I've seen in a while.

Pre-Comiket Purchases
Quite a big haul from Kyoto today in the manga department:
Yokohama Kaidaishi Kikou Vol. 1
Ichigo Mashomaro Vol. 1
NieA_7 Vol. 2 (w00t)
Genshiken Vol. 3
and
Rule by Range Murata, which turned out to be a bit of a disappointment-- it's more pictures of merchandise than art (except for a short manga by him and ABe in the back starring the Pinky:St characters he designed).
By the way, Karl, if you're reading this, Pinky:Cos has been discontinued. But I'll keep my eyes open at Comiket.
