News about Nakamura Yuuichi (Zeronos in Den-O, Akio in Wangan Nights, Kiriya from Hibiki):

It looks like he's leaving the entertainment industry. I'm not sure if people knew, but he had taken a leave of absence to recover from some sickness. Apparently he has recovered, but he has decided to pursue something besides acting. Anyway, good luck to that guy. Hope we see him again someday.

Sen-chan comments on Gokaiger 5 released

a

Gokaiger 5 March 20, 2011 Commentary by Sen-chan (Itou Yousuke)

So this is an interesting release for us. Ever since we found the footage for this, we've known that we wanted to do it. (I believe it's just from Itou Yousuke's ustream archive, so you might be able to downloads/stream the full thing still)

The thing is... there was a large technical hurdle. We knew we wanted to overlay Sen's video onto the actual episode itself, but we didn't know how. We thought we'd need some crazy video editing software or something. (Turns out it's actual a very simple filter in avisynth.)

The other problem we had is that we didn't know how long the commercial breaks were (they're not included in our raws). So I had to kind of guess on that based on Sen's comments. Not a bad job, eh? The actual sub is from the Blu-ray rip, but the 199 Heroes promo at the end is from the original release. You have no idea how convoluted my setup was at the end XD

Sorry for the sloppy composition for the first few clips. As you may have gathered, Sen-chan (Itou Yousuke) started his video feed nearly 40 minutes before the show started. So I wanted to sub some stuff, but cut out the hundreds of "Good morning!" "Here's the number of people watching the feed now!" filler that was the first 37 minutes.

Other random things to take into consideration was where to position's Sen's commentary lines during the actual show and where to put his video. Originally Sen's video covered up the bottom subtitles, but I was able to clip it so that it's visible now.
 

Live Action movie "Rebellions"

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-10-06/toei-streams-2nd-mak...

This looks like an interesting movie in the making. Not only is there veteran tokusatsu director Koichi Sakamoto, but mah waifu Nao Nagasawa of Hurricanger, who has been making recent cameos in W and Gokai, and Minami Tsukui, who played the Hopper Dopant in W (she was in Den-O but it was a non-speaking role).

Give the video a look, see what you think. Might be an interesting future project if it turns out.

Rebellions Trailer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_7uFVVTII8&feature=player_embedded

So this is a trailer for a movie that would star Nagasawa Nao (HurricaneBlue) and the goth loli Hopper Dopant from W (no typecasting there). Honestly, I think I got what I needed from the trailer itself. It's sexy and violent, it looks like a video game. Why ruin that with what would probably be a bad story that would just take away from this? Just make a music video out of it or something.

It's been a while since I heard about this, but apparently the live Rurouni Kenshin thing is happening. Starring Den-O! Sweet.

The only way this would be better is if his epic rival, Tendou Souji appeared in this feature as well.

Look who visited the last Rescue Fire live show. It's the original R1 himself (and Ryou's actor). That expression he has in the first pic is priceless, what a cool dude even now

Dance contest ends in six days!

Have you ever wondered what are TN's active projects? Wonder no more, we have an active project forum section devoted to what we ostensibly will get to sooner or (more likely) later. Unless we outright cancel it or it was pulled because it was licensed, we probably still have every intention of continuing with it.
