SegaShiro: Pure SEGA HARDCORE!

Archive for the ‘Anime’ Category

The last minute and 22 seconds of the video is dedicated to Miku and her new but classic costume. I gotta say I do dig the cell-shaded graphics for the vocaloids – I wonder if SEGA will go that route for the PSVita version. Read the rest of this entry »

There is a new Sonic fan comic inbound and it will debut in February. The series is already set to span across 22 issues in its first saga and will cover Sonic’s classic era and games.

_{“This web comic will be a very light read, each issue 4-5 pages in length. The characters will not do much talking at all as the comic will rely mainly on the pictures to tell the story. Eggman will be the only character with longer talking points.”}

The ultimate goal of the series is to eventually create an anime based on the sagas and stories of the series. You can check out the facebook page and the web portal to find out more.

SEGA will be appreciating the virtual pop idol in Japan with an event that seems to include a performance!

_{“The Appreciation Festival event will be held at Tokyo Dome City Hall. The first day is the Hatsune Miku Live Party 2012 event. The second day is the Hatsune Miku concert event. Both days have afternoon and night showings. Tickets for each show run ¥6,300.”}

I would think with tickets running in the US$80 range that it should be a concert that rivals the 39′s Giving Day event. SEGA of Japan has launched a website in support of the event.

Good Smile is known around these parts for crafting those cute Miku Nendoroid’s but now they have given the “big-head” treatment to Sonic. The results?

It looks like classic Sonic! But with green eyes! Andriasang.com stated:

_{“The Nendoroid Sonic the Hedgehog figure will be released in April 2012 at ¥3,500. The Item Box, Chaos Emerald and Point Marker obejct parts shown in the pics are all included. Sonic himself has running and standing poses.”}

The price tag seems a little high to me at roughly US$45 but it does look quite nice. Check it out: here.

Metal Sally Acorn? Uh-oh Sonic’s screwed (You can take that however you want).Seeing and hearing this panel makes me wonder why it was so hard for the Fob Fresh to give away an autographed copy of Sonic-the-Comic!

Also, the dude with the Sonic hoodie – I just saw him on the SEGA blogs!

I am not quite sure what this is other than an 8-bit rendition of Miku and one of her songs. Enjoy!
