The Melancholy of Konata Izumi

by Jason

Otaku News

Just a couple little things I wanted to mention. Things I thought were pretty cool in anime news lately.

The Melancholy of Konata Izumi

As a bonus for the folk that buy the Lucky Star DVD sets in Japan one store is giving away a phone card with the Lucky Star cast cosplaying Haruhi. Freaky. I hope we get something like that over here when it’s released.

Go Speed Racer

Yahoo! has the first few minutes of the Speed Racer movie online. Here it is, but I’d suggest checking it out on the Yahoo! page in full size.

Better yet, see the movie.

Yeah, I need to go see that one. I’m really looking forward to it, but I just couldn’t go this weekend. Maybe I can see it before it comes out on DVD. I’d really like to see it on the big screen.
