Ranking of Top thirty Japanese Emoticons
I found some interesting fact on net. In the middle of June, 2006 goo Ranking surveyed its readers by means of a public internet questionnaire on what emoticons, or smilies, they often used in mail from their personal computers. The following table presents the top thirty results. As usual for goo Ranking, number one slot gets ranked with 100 points, and all the rest with the proportion of votes relative to the top vote. Can use those emoticons for yourself too in your email or messenger applications to liven up your chat a little!

Bakuman/ 食夢者/ バクマン。
New shōnen manga by the creators of Death Note, Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata. The manga is about two boys in 9th grade who wish to be mangaka, or manga artists. The two main characters are accomplished artist Moritaka Mashiro (真城最高, Mashiro Moritaka) and aspiring writer Akito Takagi (高木秋人, Takagi Akito). The first chapter was released in Japan on August 11, 2008 serialized in the mass-market Weekly Shōnen Jump. I like the storyline that is about everything about mangaka, what is the steps to becoming a good mangaka and hardship they endure. ^^

Cyborg She/ 我的机械人女友/ 僕の彼女はサイボーグ
This is a Japanese movie. Watched the trailer of the movie and it seems nice from the romance and action packed.. ^^
One day, a beautiful cyborg girl appears in front of a dull university student. Even though the cyborg starts to like him, she can't truly feel emotions, so the boy has no choice but to say goodbye to her inhuman power and 'violence'. Missing her, he continues his lonely existence. Some time thereafter, a disastrous earthquake hits Tokyo and the cyborg girl saves his life. In that moment, she starts to have feelings like a real human being.
Starring: Haruka Ayase,Koide Keisuke, Kenichi Endo, Naoto Takenaka, Masato Ibu
Directed by: Jae-young Kwak

20th Century Boys/ 20世紀少年 Movie
Wow.. It's finally here.. The Movie is finally out in Japan today!! This film, which is called one of the most expensive ever made in Japanese cinema, is just the first film of a planned trilogy. Apparently, this installment only covers volumes 1 through 5 of the 24-volume series. Daily Yomiuri posted an article talking about the film and the casting. The second film in the trilogy is set to debut in January 2009.
