Regrettably, we must announce the loss of a close friend and dear member. Ryan, the fanboy, no longer wishes to be part of aniRAGE.
Of course, there is no animosity or ill will with us and Ryan. He is still a close friend of ours, and I am sure we will continue to run into him at conventions.
We wish Ryan the best of luck in all his future endevours. We are sure he is going to be a most kick-ass teacher.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge fan of all this Dragonball and Dragonball Z (we don’t talk about Gt). So despite knowing that it was going to be the worst thing ever, I had still planned on going to see the new live-action movie: Dragonball: Evolution.
However, when 4chan linked me to a stream of the movie online, I took advantage of the situation. I immediately was happy I did not spend upwards of ten bucks to watch this horrid piece of crap.
I’m not even going to pull any punches here: this movie is THE worst movie I have ever watched. And I’ve seen Glitter and Honey and Gigli (don’t judge me, blame cable television).
If I walked into this movie never seeing dragonball before, I would have zero idea what the plot of the movie was. I knew he each of the characters was, and that prior knowledge was the only thing that made the “character pairings” mak any sense. Chichi hates Goku, then is madly in love with him. Bulma falls down a hole due to Yamcha, and immediately they are a couple.
And Yamcha talks like a surfer? What the fuck?
Bulma is threatening to shoot people with guns? Granted, in the show she does shoot Goku with a tommy gun or something crazy like that, but she doesn’t run around the entire time blowing bullets into everyone. And to top it all off, she talks like she’s been a 12-pack-a-day smoker since she was in the womb.
There is one redeeming quality of this movie: Chichi is hot. Bulma is quasi, and Mai is pretty good..but Chichi is fine.
But the storyline? No. Just…no. It’s like the creators opened up a book of dragonball, randomly grabbed names and saw character pairings, and then wrote the movie from there. The storyline is chopped up. Characters are enemies at one point and allies the next, at each other’s throats and then madly in love, are completely ignorant of a situation and all of a sudden know everything….
Do not see this movie. Don’t even go to the cheap seats. Avoid it like the plague.

My girlfriend is bored a lot. But also awesome. She made a bunch of pokemon sprites of our Eevee Trainer group from AEXI. They are based on the pokemon trainers of the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum trainers.
Hey guys,
I just got finished uploading 2.13 GBs of Pictures and Videos loaded onto the aniRAGE Gallery. Just follow this link to check them out.
Much thanks to Kayla (my wonderful girlfriend) for manning the camera while I was off ADDing away doing stuff.

Our good friends over at EXP Con finally have their website up and running.
Well..sort of. It’s just a splash page at the moment, but they do have a link to their forums. Check them out in the sidebar…or at this convenient link!
Lots of big things happening here! First off, our good buddy Jeshua (aka Miroku) has gotten himself a nicer place to live! Congrats on him! And soon he’s going to have a car to his name and a fresh license to drive it around. Congrats!
Secondly, we welcome in Shaggy to the crew. He is our new Camera Whore Man! We are happy to have him aboard.
Anime Express 11 is coming up soon, and we are happy to report that we have some great stuff planned. Not only do we have our Whose Line is it aniRAGE show, but we have some new stuff planned for you guys (and it’s a lot better than the “new stuff” we unveiled last year).
We can’t wait to see all of our friends again…from the Animebelle gang, to Eevee, to Veggies…and not to mention Meredith!
We’ll see you guys there!

Since we all fell in love with the This Is Sportcenter type of commercials, we decided to do an homage to them, with our This Is aniRAGE series!
Guest Starring:
aniRAGE is proud to officially announce that we will be returning to EXP Con, October 9-11 in St. Augustine, Florida.
We had a great time there last year, and can’t wait to see what they have planned for everyone.
(Normally, we would link to their website right here, but at the moment it’s currently down).
Check out our videos from last year’s EXP Con at our youtube page! Here are some links to our videos about EXP Con.
