    Gotta ask this.

    I heard that Yukio Hatoyama has resigned as Prime Minister of Japan and Naoto Kan has now been elected as the new prime minister. From the way I'm hearing this, it seems he seems to be a good replacement to Hatoyama. Also, I'm intrigued about his idea of weakening the Japanese yen in order to stimulate the Japanese economy, which I've heard months before he became PM.

    So, how's the general feeling among the Japanese people with regards to Kan being elected as PM? Personally, what's your view on this? And can you explain his idea of how a weak yen can help the economy?

    On other stuff, it's a shame that this news piece isn't making its way in the anime news section, unlike in the past. Then again, I guess it's for the best. Japanese politics just got a bit interesting already to me.

    Wait, what? You didn't get the Pokemon reference? How do you not get a Pokemon reference!? It's even from the original series!

    Friends let friends read bad doujin.

    If it's women dressed as men, is it really going to count as yaoi? I don't know, maybe it's better to leave this one alone.

    Common sense is a rare superpower. I mean, look at our politicians and the media.

    Ichigo, you forgot to mention OB going offline for its big re-launch later this week. ;)

    Great show though. Keep up the good work.

    XD Sorry for commenting twice, but I have come up with an idea to get some more comments; which if you don't want to use, I won't be offended.

    Well, my idea is a question of the week. People could submit questions, or you could just make it up yourself.

    E.g: Who's your favorite anime/manga character, and why?

    See you next week!

    Another awesome show, Ichigo! (I fell off my chair laughing at he/she.)

    XD I'm sorry I couldn't find a word...I think inband should be a word...(I guess I can't think at 1 AM?)

    Hm...6 comments??? I'll have to do something about that...

    Can't wait for next week's show! ^^
