Well, I'm back. Yeah, hooray, etc. So, to start; WHAT THE FUCK TOKYOPOP? I'm most likely late with this news, but it turns out Japanese manga publisher Kodansha expired their contract with Tokyopop, which means they can no longer publish ANY of their stuff, AT ALL. Why? I don't know. But this pisses me off to the extreme. This means Rave Master, one of the first manga I ever discovered (thanks to a friend, but that's another story), is NOT going to be finished by Tokyopop. Thanks to much better American publisher Del Rey, they've been given the rights to several of Tokyopop's lost titles, most importantly, Rave Master. While that makes the situation better for me, it turns out the last THREE volumes, count 'em THREE, are going to be publishing as one Omnibus volume in SEPTEMBER of next year. Yeah. What the fuck guys? This better not happen to Del Rey, because if they lose Fairy Tail, I'm going to be pissed...well, more pissed than I am now.

As for updates:

~ Well, I'm back in school (last year), so I'm gonna be kinda busy. But, I'll still update as much as possible.

~ The 150th deviation has been officially canceled. Mainly because I forgot some of the owners of some of the characters that were requested, because my journals were mysteriously erased.

~ I still have a ton of stuff to upload. Mainly just random stuff I drew over the summer and beginning of the school year.

~ I'm currently working on my 5th MMV (on Youtube). My personal deadline is October 12th. I don't plan on revealing the subject nor the song. If you're interested, just follow along.

~ I've been sucked into the phenomenon that is Twitter. Right here.

~ I still plan on rewriting my Sonic Unleashed review, along with the Legendary Starfy. I plan on making Journal 7 the Starfy review, because I made a really goofy title: Lucky Star. See? Lucky, 'cus it's a seven? And Starfy's a star? And Lucky Star is an anime? See? Haha!

~ I plan on interviewing random artists here on dA for no reason. I thought it'd be fun. It's most likely gonna be people on my watchlist, though.

That's all for now.
