This is pretty unfortuante, I really enjoyed her writing. In case some of you didn't know, the Ghibli anime Howl's Moving Castle was based on a British writer. I highly recommend reading the book if you enjoyed the anime, since it makes more sense and is just overall a lot better than the movie (Don't get me wrong, I love the movie too).
Howl's Moving Castle was also followed by two indirect sequels that take place in the world. Castle in the Air and House of Many Ways. I highly recommend that people check them out. You can probably find them at your local library.
Edit: Shadowneko has set up a forum thread about the matter

So someone took the fansubs that we put out there with no strings attached, and cut them up to make a Kamen Rider show that has no present day stuff. This is infuriating!
No wait, I mean, this is hilarious. Good job to that guy!

Over the next week, I will be upgrading and moving around various things on the server, so the website may go down unexpectedly for a few minutes or so at times. I will try to keep the downtime to a minimum and I will do upgrades that noticeably affect the website early in the morning (roughly 2-3 AM CDT (GMT - 5?)).
As with the forums, they will be going down for maintenance between 2-3 AM CDT on Sunday, March 27 for anywhere up to an hour or two depending on how well things go.

Yup, they're back. But let's just keep in mind that it's still a country in recovery (For example, they still had five aftershocks in the last six hours). Also, some other fansubbing things might be affected, like Amazon Japan had to delay shipping my Precure Movie because of the damage to their shipping node.
But let's try to keep thinigs in perspective. Sure, it's an inconvenience for us, but what they're going through is really terrible. I couldn't begin to imagine how I'd cope if I were in one of the affected areas right now, y'know? If stuff gets delayed or they need to cancel some things, let's show some understanding for what they're going through.
On our part, I think the best thing we can do is to just not take the good things we have in life for granted. That stuff won't always be there, after all.

So Cheetah and SilentWolfDog had a fun idea for the Net movies. In one segment, the actors draw something from memory and they have a contest to see who does the best (and worst) job. SilentWolfDog took a hand at it, and you guys can too.
So the rules are simple. Just draw the thing from your memory. Don't look it up, cause that'd be cheating. When we release the Net movies, just post the thumbnail and link to your picture in that thread. It'll just be for fun to see how well people do.
The drawing subjects are: [Money Dopant, Gene Dopant, Revolgarry, W CyloneJokerXtreme, Terror Dopant]

Just a reminder that we don't allow Guest or default Mib_12345 type names in the IRC channel. Pick a real nick before joining.
While I'm at it, try not to use colored text since you can never tell what background color someone is using. And it's an English language channel, so don't have conversations in another language while there. Thanks

So we were playing a game in the channel. The game is, spot the girl among a bunch of Final Fantasy guys. It basically took 12 minutes for the channel to guess it. Good luck, you guys are going to need it. If you know the answer already from seeing this before, don't give it away. Cause that's just lame. It's more fun to see people fail at it

Hyper Clock Up please?
So I tried playing Climax Heroes OOO with the PSP over Adhoc with a couple people from the staff. It sucks, it's super slow. We tried it using both the American and Japanese adhoc party programs. Everything is just super laggy. Anyone have any idea on what can be done to make the play experience better?

The word:
Mukan 無冠 【むかん】 (n) uncrowned
Using the kanji for "no" and "crown". Knowing "mu" is handy just because it's always good to know the negative words in the language
