Remember when Google Street View came out and it was all the rage? Like how you see where you are going without ever leaving your home? Since then the service has brought to the mobile market as well. Whats next for Google you ask? STORE VIEW. Google has started take pictures of stores who have signed up in a bunch of handful of cities. I have no idea how this is going to get maintained but Google has started in about 30 cities around the world. So now we can all do our window shopping from our very own homes. Imagine watching it in 3D! Wow, how far will we go to not move?

For those who are interested in take part in this program head over to: http://maps.google.com/businessphotos

Make sure your city is one that Google is starting the trial in though: http://maps.google.com/help/maps/businessphotos/faq.html

That’s right people, Pokemon is finally ending. Well, not really, but the series that stars Ash Ketchup and that amazing strong Pikachu is finally ending to make way for a totally new Pokemon Series that is coming out this fall, Pokemon Black and White. This series has been on since 1997 and with the total number of Pokemons ever growing when at first it was “only” 150 and now it is who knows what, I think this extension of the series has been long over due.

So, 4Kids TV called it “localization”, I think this is CLEARLY censorship. Cigarettes to Lollipops, Rifles to Waterguns, Pistols to Shovels, thats what gets replaced. Things that are missing: Blood, Guns, Cigars, Tattoos.

I know that since Fundamation has taking over it has been saved. Its honestly not that bad now, which makes me happier. But to think that its America debut was completely destroyed, that makes me sad. One Piece was suppose to be the series that replaced Dragonball Z. *sigh

Check out the Fundamation site if you don’t know of it yet:

Five More Years of the One Piece Manga April 14, 2010

It has been confirmed. Eiichiro Oda has confirmed on the series’s 13th year that in about 5 years this amazing irreplaceable manga will come to an end and although the anime will probably go on a few more years after that. Oda says that he’s had an image of the ending for the series for a long time now but creating the arcs that lead up to the ending has taken more time than he has expected, he said that he’d like to be 9/10th of the way there but acknowledges that he is only about half-way. So lets just hope that this “5″ year is: A, not set in stone and B, changed to a number much larger.

I am MUCH more excited about this movie. I loved the manga, was blown away by the anime and have been dying for a sequel. This will have to do.

Cool to see more and more anime’s getting their live-action remakes. Seeing how Ninomiya Kazunari is in it, my guess is that one of the theme songs will be song by Arashi, as usual, just like every other movie/drama any of the band members are in.
