OK, Azumanga Daioh is in

miwasatoshi's top-∞, so I added it to my Netflix queue, and I watched episode 1 today.

I pressed "play" without looking and ended up playing it dubbed. I remember hearing about the Southern Osaka Voice, but I'll get used to it. I don't want to have to watch the whole episode again in Japanese. More annoying is how all the English has to be un-Englished when it comes up. So I might switch in a few episodes.

We'll see what else.

Anime got a rare mainstream media mention on Adam Carolla's talk show.

If you visit Adam's podcast page today, you'll see that segment, titled "Is Anime Sexy?" Apparently, Danny Bonaduce's daughter is a big otaku. And because of that, a big chunk of the segment is about his domestic difficulties, but it gets back into anime porn at about the 10:25 mark. Danny mishears "hentai" as "hand-tie".

Adam's take: he didn't like it at first; it was too abrasive to his senses... until he saw one with lots of big jugs, and then he turned the corner.

Might I say I really miss Dave Dameshek, for since he left, Adam's show has had no nerd representation. He almost had a show on KZON here in Phoenix, but they gave up on him after two weekends, and never gave him a chance, and that David Caruso game he did on his last name sounded like it would have been a lot of fun.
