X-Men Goes Anime

Animax, Madhouse, G4, and Marvel Anime has released this year the Wolverine and Iron Man Anime series. Many of you may already be aware that there will also be an X-MEN Anime series!

According to Animax and Marvel, the storyline of the X-Men series is set one year after the death of Jean Grey and after the X-Men organization has effectively disbanded. However, Hisako Ichiki (Armor) — a mutant middle school girl living in northeastern Japan — has gone missing. An emergency call for help is sent, and the founder of the X-Men, Professor X, summons his team from all over the globe. The reunited X-Men travel to Japan where they encounter a supremacist cult called the U-Men.

The series will premiere on Animax on April 1. Animax already launched an Iron Man and Wolverine anime, and it is also planning an anime for Marvel's Blade character this summer. The American network G4 plans to begin running these four titles this year. For the rest of us who dont have these channels, you know where to look for it *wink* *wink* HERE IS THE TRAILER:

The New THUNDERCATS

Warner Bros. Animation is producing a new ThunderCats animated series scheduled for release in 2011 by Cartoon Network. Japanese animation studio Studio 4°C, which provided animation for Warner Bros. films The Animatrix and Batman: Gotham Knight, will be working on the artwork and animation for the new series. Sam Register (Teen Titans, Ben 10) will be the executive producer and is joined by Michael Jelenic (Wonder Woman, Batman: The Brave and the Bold) and Ethan Spaulding (Avatar: The Last Airbender) as the producers for the series. The show will explain Lion-O's ascension to the Thunderean throne with a more original feel and darker style than the 1980s series. In early November 2010, former Lion-O voice actor Larry Kenney revealed that he would be playing the role of Lion-O and Tygra's father Claudius in the opening three-part episode of the new series.

In January 2011, A promotional poster featuring re-imagined designs for Lion-O, Cheetara, Panthro and Tygra as well as design for the Sword of Omens and vehicles were shown at the London Toy Fair.

Cartoon Network aired an 80 second-long trailer during the After Party Special of the "Hall of Game Awards" sports award show (on February 25, 2011), giving the viewers peaks at all the previously confirmed characters: as well as Jaga, Wilykit/Wilykat, and King Claudus.

ATUN KAWSA

If I was to be asked what I wanted from Iloilo. It’s not more bars, cafes or clubs. I don’t really want another mall or another new nightspot. No, no. I think we’ve had our fill of those things. Because if we ever do add malls or nightspots for our city, yes our city does grow in some way, but a bigger city runs the risk of higher crimes. Just look at our city’s current nightspot. It seems to have become a breeding ground for a new generation of morons who resort to cowardice crimes of hostilities. The ignorant arrogant thug generation. Of course, there’s also drugs and prostitution.

What Iloilo needs is not to expand structurally. But culturally. Notice how IMBALANCED Iloilo is. There is an overflowing community and power of Pop Culture. Pop Culture that is very much associated with commercial culture.
And commercial culture is controlled by powers interested in profit. On the other hand, on the opposite side, we find the art community, the world of creative artists, rockers, metalheads, and misfits. This is the community is where Art & Creativity generally comes from. And there is a really awful imbalance here in Iloilo wherein the Pop Culture is too enormous in magnitude that it never gives much chance for an independent artistic and creative community to thrive.

Now is the time for us to gather strength and grow. Let our numbers be known and let our tribes be heard. Our wild howls should be heard when they have their little fucking balls over at their nightspots. Let us march. March of Misfits. March of Weirdos. March of Punks, Metalheads, Freaks, and Nerds. Poets, Writers, Painters, and Sketchers alike. Dreamers and Nightmarewalkers. Geeks and Goths, Hippies and Techies. We March. We March and our flag is Iloilo and Panay in general.

In a year’s time, Panay should be known as a Cradle of the Arts Scene. It should be just like Seattle in the 1990’s when it was a cradle of the Alternative & Grunge Rock Scene and also that of the Art Scene, as it was a hub for poetry and the other arts. It should be like SoHo, which is also a landmark because it is a hub for the American Art scene and also the Film Community. Metro Manila has always been associated with being the capital, Cebu has always been associated with business and also its Pop lifestyle. Iloilo? Our Pop nightlife (although it is active) there is nothing really distinct about it to make it more special… I’ll give you “special” for Iloilo to be associated with…. Iloilo as a hub of rock n’ Roll, Creativity, Poetry, and the Arts! THAT, my friends, is identity we want Iloilo to be associated with.

One of the things that have been holding Iloilo back is that it has been very difficult for organizations, production groups, art groups to be united and co-exist. There were very many attempts to unite some groups into one integrated organization, but that obviously has failed because what I have noticed in Iloilo's groups is that it tends to be very “tribal”. You cannot force a group to give up their power to a higher leader. No. What we should do, in my opinion, is work together for a common end but acknowledge each other's borders and each other's power. You will have your group, and we will have ours, we should not force to integrate it....but we can agree to a common goal. I know that sometimes we can have the tendency to be very competitive. But try not to think of it as a reason to have some kind of hate for each other. You can compete with each other---but that does not mean you have to hate each other… and that does not mean you cant share a common goal. Kita-kita manlang di sa Iloilo, sure, magkumpetensyahanay ta, but in one way or another, we could find ourselves working with each other somehow. Kumpetensyahanay lang kamo sa iban na pagkabutang, pero hinde lang kamo mag suya-ay, wala lang personalan, wala lang badtripay, wala lang halitay… ISA LANG ATUN KAWSA --- ILOILO’s Rock, Arts, Counter-Culture,
Subculture, Alternative Culture!
