Natalia Poklonskaya - 3D or 2D?
It seems that the new 33 year old Crimean attorney general and immortal empress Natalia Poklonskaya has developed quite a following among Anime fans worldwide, who seem to be obsessed with her kawaii appearance and are duplicating her form and figure in 2D just about everywhere:
So which Japanese studio will be first to develop a Tsundere themed 12 episode Anime series around her? Or perhaps it will be one of those obligatory 'prosecutor by day, BDSM queen by night' shows?
Please guys, no cries of "please come and annex my heart" or how "she's Putin the cute in prosecute", OK?

Taiga Aisaka is a notorious hothead with the nickname ""Palm-top Tiger."" She also happens to be Minorin's best friend, and what's more, Taiga has a crush on Ryuji's closest friend. This unlikely duo strikes a tenuous agreement to assist one another in stealing the hearts of the ones they love.

Socked in Again - Winter Storm Titan
Just when we thought it was safe to start unpacking the deck chairs, yet another winter storm mixed with another blast of arctic cold air is coming through our area today laying down 1/4" of ice under several more inches of snow. We don't know how much just yet, looks like it will be 6 or 8 inches total this time. It's not so much the snow as the ice with this one.
Anyway, we're going to be running on a delayed schedule today (3/3) and unless the snow stops pretty early we'll more than likely have to close the warehouse for the day, and I doubt any of the carriers (UPS, FX, USPS) will be running today in any case. So please be patient with us and give us a little extra time to get your orders shipped over the next couple of days - we'll get into the warehouse and get to work on them as soon as possible!
