HITLER.

Yes, I ‘Hitler-ed’ a post, pre-comment.

Our TG presidente turns up in the damnedest places, such as 38 seconds into this video from Wondercon 2009.

It’s like he’s his own walking Player Hater’s ball.

Hey all…

I know a lot of you are Gundam fans (nerds!) and don’t like to pass up free stuff, and I know a lot of you are into old-school 8 bit games, so catch the fever and check out this 8 bit remix jam made up of various choice Gundam themes:

Operation British has been completed! Master Hatchet carried out the operation successfully, covering every UC Gundam theme in a chiptune style, and even a few other mecha shows, like Gurren Lagann or Macross. 14 chiptunes all at once! Can the Federation handle such a monstrous force? Download now and find out. Sieg Zeon!

It is available for download at this page.

Please note that it also includes some of the stuff we’re selling here at the store. *hint hint*

Have fun!!

Despite the strong inference of staff members and fan sites, Gintama will be continuing with a fourth season.

I know I’m chuffed. Pants are tightening a bit, actually…

Anyway, fans shall receive more Gintama goodness in the Fall. Keep in mind that a certain site that you’re already on happens to have A LOT OF GINTAMA DOUJIN FOR SALE AT 30% OFF WHEN YOU ENTER THE COUPON CODE* right now.

I think that it’s going to be a hell of a Spring and Summer for 2009 between this, Full Metal Alchemist’s new show, and the high-anticipated Haruhi sequel.

RAR!

* = recession is the coupon code. Because, um, we’re in a damned recession.

Too bad it kinda sucks it.

This new 4 min. 30 second video was posted today on Kadokawa’s animation channel on youtube, much to the delight and anticipation of many dedicated (read: BATSHIT INSANE) Haruhi fans.

How do we feel about it at TG headquarters?

MEH.

As Big Worm taught us oh so many Fridays ago, messing with a fan’s love of Haruhi is like messing with their emotions. Come on Kyoani, you have the plot and should have the resources to get rolling on this. Don’t act like you don’t want to build a MONSTER franchise, either. You need it, we want it… simple math, baby!

Perhaps it’s the post-con tiredness that is making me say this, but If this second season doesn’t rule a lot of folks will be taking their balls, piling ‘em into the Civic, and going home.

Don’t blow it, Kyoani.

Hello!

Happy 2009! Can you believe it?!? We’re now in the space-age years! I’m kind of bummed that I don’t have a floating car or anything, but it’s still an exciting time for me. Hopefully it is for you, too.

TG the website has been lying low recently. For the most part we’ve just been dealing with custom orders and having occasional sales. Our plans for the year are to basically provide a more streamlined, simpler service for you.  We are currently using two buyers overseas and fulfilling orders on a commission basis. These orders are separate from the web store we operate here, but we still fill them with the same joyful sarcasm that you’ve come to expect.

On a personal note, we understand what a hard year it’s been for a lot of you. I do too, actually, as my day job just went ‘kaput’ and I’m back in the world of semi-professional student-dom whilst I run this site.

Frankly, I took it as a sign. I’m a good general computing guy, a good writer, and an OK logistics person, but I’m a HELL of an ambassador for extreme culture and societal extremity, and that’s what I want to focus on right now whilst I learn programming and whatnot.

I hope to serve up many a slab to you in 2009.

明けまして　おめでとう　ございます！

(akemashite omedetou gozaimasu…. ‘happy new year!’, or literally ‘congratulations on the beginning!’)

Hey there! Everybody here at TG would like to wish all of you out there a very happy holidays. Hang out with your family, eat a bunch of good food, and remember what this season is about: not having to go to work for a couple of days.

With that said, the holiday sale is still on. Please see the last post here for more info. Later skaters.

“Haruhi sucks and so does Lucky Star. Crappiest anime ever made.

Hokuto no Ken owns this shit.”
