Happy New Year! I hope everyone enjoyed their holidays! I had an interesting swerve in my life a couple weeks ago, but probably for the better in the long run. Still enjoyed the holidays with my family regardless, and ready to start anew in 2011 in a lot more ways than I had originally planned. With a new year also comes new comparisons, so we'll kick off 2011 here at SMU with the posting of episode 52!
Also, I've been getting involved in other parts of the SMOC. As I'm sure it's no secret by now that I'm good friends with a few of the staff members over at Miss Dream, I've managed to slightly break into the site by joining them in their semi-regular audio podcast sessions. They cover various topics around the Sailor Moon world and its fandom, which end up being a good combination of being insightful and entertaining. I can start being heard on the latest one, and will also be in ones to follow. I'm guessing we'll be on a more regular schedule with them fairly soon with the holidays being over, we'll see. The other ones from last year are worth a listen as well, as is seeing everything else on their site, especially the start of the manga translation project. Yes, a much better translation of the manga than Mixx did over a decade ago, and the first group to use scans of the reprint manga!
So that's it for now. Expect 2011 to have more comparisons than 2010, and who knows what I'll do next outside of them, keep your eyes peeled.
