    Congratulations to Zonz, who is the sole survivor of this week’s first GtA, which was Ragnarok the Animation, anime inspired by the popular MMORPG “Ragnarok Online” (one of the best, if you ask me). As I said, you had two ways of finding the answer : Either you had seen the anime previously and remembered this part, or you’ve played the mmo and found out about the anime after hearing the awesome Zephel-Sensei in action !
    New GtA on the sidebar.

    Anyway.. It’s been pretty calm for quite some time, but I’ve found a few things I want to write about, so expect several articles in the next few days!
    Will be working (and the usual live streaming) on the anime chart this weekend.

    Got a few pending mails to answer too, sorry for the delay :/

Nyaruko-san.

    A new GtA is now on the sidebar. There are two ways of finding the correct answer ! Good luck.

    Changing the Beat of the Week to “Stay away from blood money!”. Haven’t chosen that kind of style for a while now. Can you recognize from which anime this soundtrack is from?
    Of course, looking it up is a no no.

    I’ve written this before, but the v3 of the summer 2012 anime chart is planned for this weekend.
    It’s important, so I said it twice! (© Nyaruko).

    Speaking about Nyaruko, you must be aware of a currently spreading meme originating from this anime ((」・ω・)」うー!(/・ω・)/にゃー!). If you were unaware of it, here’s a simple explanation :

    Now, do this movement 50 times every morning, and you’re good to go.
    Start with one hand, and when you’ve become a pro, try it with both hands.

    v3 of the Summer 2012 Anime chart is planned for the coming weekend. It’s been quite some time since the v2, so a lot of new content is to be expected.

    Welcoming a new website to the blogroll.

    Japanese Artists – Mikebosi


    Guess what, painting style.

    Mikebosi (mikebosi)

    Mikebosi is a rather discreet Pixiv artist. Truth is, he/she doesn’t make a lot of Pixiv publications, so this explains that. Still, Regulars might remember a recent PotD that featured this artist !
    While I like what he/she does, I think Mikeboshi doesn’t make full use of his/her potential : Artworks look a bit “unfinished” on some parts, and would’ve been much better with a little more effort. For example, some strong lines remain in some places while all the rest blends very well with the background.


    I feel like the artist draws & colors “on a whim” rather than focusing too intensively on an artwork each time.
    Well, Mikebosi is still a student (20-year-old) so he/she probably has other preoccupations. If you’ve followed other JA posts featuring painting styles, you’ll probably agree that this one has nothing too “special” about it (but it’s still very good!). I find characters quite fashionable, with stylish gothic dresses and stuff. Imo, Mikebosi is an artist with a lot of latent potential, and I can’t wait to see what he/she will bring us with some more practice.

    As a general rule, I’ll never post more than 5 pictures of an artist when I feature him/her.
