Too Much Awesome

As the devastating affects of a Great War between the World Government, the Shichibukai, and the Whitebeard Pirates comes to a bitter end, Straw Hat Captain Monkey D. Luffy realizes that he and his crew are not yet ready to face the enemies that will be waiting for them in the second half of the [...]

Two weeks ago, I set sail on a voyage to find the perfect flesh and blood actors who would be suitable to play live action adaptations of One Piece‘s central protagonists, the Straw Hat Pirates. As fun as it was, it was also quite a daunting task. So much so that I was yet to [...]

A great and wonderful thing has just recently happened. I took a risk and made an attempt to get my wife to watch an anime with me. Normally, this would not work, as I’ve attempted it with Dragonball Z in the past, but to no effect. However this time I found great favor in some [...]

So this was me last September: “Ugh… I cannot believe I let my friend goad me into watching a 400+ episode anime series. What does he expect me to do? Not have a life? At the very least, this will kill time before the new Avatar series comes out next year. Alright let’s get this [...]

Before I begin today’s Triple A, I feel it is only right that I give my regards to Japan and all the people struggling in the wake of the earthquake/ tsunami disaster. It is devastating to see so many people’s lives uprooted by something so natural and out of our control. I do not wish [...]

Gus started a very cool new feature, Authentically Awesome Anime, just last month with one of his current obsessions, Gurren Lagann. While I’ve talked about Dragonball Z quite enough, and gone toe-to-toe with Gus regarding Avatar, I don’t want to paint this picture of myself as a complete anime fool. Therefore, it’s about time I [...]

I would like to thank Chris Pranger for being such a good sport lately. And not just for giving me full position here at Toy-TMA, this goes way beyond that. Back as a guest writer, I never thought he’d actually approve of my DBZ article, as it was so long and unexpected. Not only that, [...]

Christmas is over and the end of the year festivities are about to hit, meaning everyone else is going to be covering the Best Of and Worst Of 2010 lists like they just remembered they had a final paper to write. Me, I decided I haven’t talked about Dragonball Z in quite a while and [...]
