I hate it when things are slow and there's little to nothing for me to do on the actual site. Well, things that everyone here actually sees and notices, I've cleaned up a bunch of code for the site and the admin center, as well as improving the admin center, but none of that will really be noticed by the casual user, though if you use the forums you can see I've made sure to add some nice goodies on them. I wish I could do more content updates, but with Toei slowly pulling the plug on Sailor Moon in America and PGSM ending shortly, the only things I can do now is just announce the Geneon Signature Series release dates for the SMSS re-releases, which is the content for today's update. If there's anyone buying these budget re-releases, be sure to read today's news article to mark new dates on your calendars.
Speaking of calendars, 2005 is pretty much around the corner, so you might want to start thinking of pre-ordering any calendars you want for the next year if you're gonna import any from Japan. Some stores have already taken some pre-orders, and if I remember correctly October is the month most of them ship out. If there's going to be a Sailormoon calendar for 2005 (I don't remember if there was one for 2004), someone let me know so I can get it and post the info on here for others to see too.
Other ranting and raving while I can, pretty soon the main reason that everyone comes here (or at least was the main reason in the past, I think the forums overtake this right now) will finally be getting some additions in the near future. Yes, I do mean comparisons. Bob and I have talked and plotted about how to get them done since he's having problems with the time and the lack of a working VCR, and have devised a plan. Sometime this week, I will be getting my tapes back from him (finally ^_^) and will semi-takeover the comparisons. It's only a semi-takeover since the two of us will share the work, meaning I'm gonna actually watch through them and take the notes and that fun stuff, whereas he will take my notes and his his own comments and such and add them into the database for everyone to enjoy. I get my tapes back, notes actually get taken, he writes all the witty stuff (I wouldn't be able to pull off the effect he can if I even tried ^^;;; ), you all have new comparisons to read, we all win. ^_^
So sometime within the next couple weeks, an episode comparison is guranteed. After I get a feel for it with how long it takes and such, I'll work my way into getting them done on a regular basis. While not much of a content update for today, I hope this instills excitement for the good things about to come.
