Lineart Attack by Chris 9:10 P.M. EST
It's time for another massive lineart update. Sir Red XIV sent in a tons of new SEED/DESTINY vehicles and weapons lineart. If you're curious what's new, see this thread for a list of what he sent in.

Mecha Musings Episode XI: Attack of the Space Toilets by Chris 5:40 P.M. EST Yes, I had to slip a Star Wars reference in here sometime this week. For more information about space toilets, check out Ben's latest Mecha Musings column.
Now it's time for some shameless self-promotion. In the five years I've been running this site, I've occasionally branched out in my writing for websites like About.com or magazines like Wizard Anime Insider. Now I've moved on to The Miami Herald. If you live in South Florida and are remotely interested in anything that happens there, you can read this story (free registration required).
Finally, another site-related note. I've said this before and I'll say it again as many times as it's necessary. DO NOT send me e-mails demanding SEED DESTINY reviews. If you're the type who is outraged by the fact that I haven't posted a review in three months, well, that's too bad. There's far more to life than griping about how you need, demand or expect your DESTINY reviews. Also, passing those gripes along to me will do nothing at all to speed up the reviewing process. I update this site when and how I see fit, not when people demand it.

The End of VOTOMS by Chris 7:10 P.M. EST As I stated recently, it's a special occasion when the reviews for a series are completed. This time, that occasion is marked with my reviews for episodes 50-52 of VOTOMS. Although the site's fastest review record was set by Brian for Dunbine, this is my personal fastest time for reviewing a series. For the record, the last time I completed a section was in September 2003 with the end of Gundam SEED. Now that VOTOMS is over, it's time to move on to other things. At this time I'd like to give special thanks to Corben for making it possible to review this series.

The Will of Wiseman by Chris 6:03 P.M. EST Today's update covers episodes 47-49 of VOTOMS. Normally, this would be the end of a series, but there's still three more to go this time. Also, I've made a few minor updates to the Dunbine mecha section.

Lineart is courtesy of Mark064, and specs are by RGZ-91. Finally, it's Friday, and this week we have a special fan mail edition of Ben's Mecha Musings. Speaking of mail, I've decided to set Thursday as the Mailbag day.
