News Sock Monkey Loves You Book Gets TV Anime
posted on 2010-02-10 03:18 EST
The exhibitor notes at the Tokyo International Anime Fair (TAF) 2010 website have revealed on Monday that a television anime adaptation of Waka Sakamoto and L.A. Tomari's Sock Monkey Loves You. (Sock Monkey wa Kimi ga Suki) hobby craft book has been green-lit for this summer. The 2007 book teaches Japanese people about the century-old Western tradition of making stuffed monkey toys from socks. Iyasakadō Film is producing the anime project.
Iyasakadō's previous projects include last year's anime adaptation of the live-action Kotatsu Neko science-fiction/fantasy romance film and the Unko-san scatological comedy, which just launched its second anime series last month.

Review: Final Fantasy XIII-2
"Rather than reinvent its predecessor, Final Fantasy XIII-2 just improves its ideas in smaller ways. It's more casually enjoyable than Final Fantasy XIII, but it's still unsatisfying in the long run." Check out Todd Ciolek's verdict on the latest in the long-running franchise now.

Only Serious About You GN 2The strength of Only Serious About You lies in its depiction of not just two men coming together, but in the formation of a family.

Ouran High School Host Club GN 17There is but one volume remaining to Ouran High School Host Club, and it has been a fun ride. While this book doesn't quite live up the earlier ones in terms of pure, lighthearted enjoyment, it is still solidly entertaining.
Cage of Eden GN 2 & 3Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.
Heaven's Lost Property Blu-Ray + DVD
A perverted young man becomes the master to a sexy, emotionally stunted, angel-like android with frightening power in this 2009 harem series. Though occasionally good, the series much more often wallows in crass stupidity.
Blue Exorcist DVD 2
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
