Weekly Bunshun estimates Eiichiro Oda earned 1.29 billion from manga alone
The December 30/January 6 issue of Bungei Shunju's Weekly Bunshun magazine calculated that One Piece manga creator Eiichiro Oda's annual income is 2 billion yen (about US$24 million). The magazine took the number of One Piece manga volumes sold this year (32,343,809), multiplied that by the average cover price (400 yen), and multipled the result by Oda's estimated royalty percentage (10%) to get the tally of 1.29 billion yen (US$15.5 million).
Weekly Bunshun then estimated that Oda earned 749 million yen (US$8.97 million) in royalties for character goods to reach the final total of 2 billion yen.

Sailor Moon GN 4While the story still has its logical flaws, it remains an engaging read that holds up well despite the passing of years and this volume continues to keep up both the promise and nostalgia of Takeuchi's masterwork.
Pokemon Movie: Black Dub.DVDOverall, neither Pokemon the Movie: Black or its White counterpart really stands out from the already packed herd. While not terrible, these are films that can be safely left alone unless you or your child have a compulsion to truly catch 'em all.
Medaka Box Episodes 1-6 Streaming
It turns out that the great NisiOisin/Gainax collaboration is just another mission-of-the-week comedy. Sad, that. And boring.
Hiiro no Kakera Episodes 1-6 Streaming
Hiiro no Kakera is by no means a terrible show...it just isn't a very good one, either. With a stilted script and a team of heroes who feel incompetent, not to mention cookie cutter characters who do little to make themselves endearing or unusual, it does nothing to elevate itself above the masses.
Bodacious Space Pirates Episodes 7-12 Streaming
Like the pirate she is, Marika is chasing space treasure this time around. At six episodes this arc is twice the size of any previous arc, but it fairly flies by. Not great, but darned fun.
Space Brothers Episodes 1-6 Streaming
As much a series about having dreams and struggling to fulfill them as it is about the wonder of space and the human urge to explore the unknown.

A young man embarks on adventure when he saves a fleeing woman in this post-apocalyptic tale from the mind of Leiji Matsumoto. Despite strong production values, its lack of originality and time for proper development help prevent it from being memorable.

Tales of Phantasia DVD 1Spreading the story out over a couple more episodes might have allowed for a smoother flow and greater character development, but this console game adaptation packs enough action and pleasing visuals to keep a viewer's interest. An entertaining, if forgettable, production.
