Charlotte Airs the Same Day as Japan on Animax Asia

Wazzup Pilipinas!

An original anime production by prolific writer Jun Maeda is premiering first and exclusively on Animax – Asia’s first 24-hour Japanese anime channel.

Renowned Japanese visual studio Key has come together with Progressive Animation (P.A.) Works for Charlotte, which will air on the same day as its Japan telecast on Animax Asia, in July. Boasting local subtitles including English, Bahasa Indonesia, Mandarin and Thai, the anime was written by Key’s co-founder Jun Maeda, who is also contributing to the musical score. The anime will also feature character designs by fellow Key colleague Na-Ge. The two had worked with the same producers on popular 2010 anime Angel Beats! and together, the dream team promises to conjure up the same magic in Charlotte. 

Charlotte, rumoured to have been based on Maeda’s own early life, is set in an alternate world where a few children come into unusual superpowers upon puberty. One of the colouful characters is Jōjirō Takajyō, who can move so fast he appears to be teleporting. There’s also student singer Yusa Nishimori, who can communicate with the dead. The children are enrolled into Houshinomi Academy, which has its own student council for guiding those who encounter problems with their newfound abilities. 

A Big Bravo for a Triumphant Preview of The Normal Heart

HIV, usually labelled as God’s punishment upon homosexuals, is now infecting us at a rate of 22 people a day but is still largely ignored because it is looked upon as a “fringe” disease that affects only gay people.

What are we doing about it?

Commendable are the people behind the Actor's Actors Inc.'s The Necessary Theater for coming up with the critically acclaimed masterpiece such as activist Larry Kramer's The Normal Heart. Bart Guingona, it's director and lead actor, cannot deny that it is sensitive and timely material that is not easily accepted by the masses since many are still closeted and are fearful of coming put and be prosecuted.

Can love remain resilient even in the face of something as permanent as death? Should love be the one to initiate a strengthen effort to pursue our rights to receive immediate health care and solution from the government.

Do we deserve the engagement and cooperation of every journalist out there? Or is this disease still considered as marginalized to the community of queers, that it is forever downplayed.

SevenFriday Swiss Watches: Substance and Sophistication for Every Dapper Man

Wazzup Pilipinas!

We're sharing to you the official press release from SevenFriday fresh from the recent media event held at the SM Fashion Hall Megamall branch last June 30, 2015 where we had a chance to interview the founder, Daniel Niederer.

I'm still transcribing the interview which was so hard to comprehend because of the ambient noise during the event so it will just be released at a later time soon.

The Swiss watch brand is remarkably impressive in both form and function that it is a huge disappointment if you miss this one as a must have for every lifestyle trend follower. At a price of 84k as the most expensive, the brand is a lot more affordable than its few counterparts.

With 12 models to choose from for both men and women, there is bound to be a design that you will fall in love with.

Sincerely, I would have bought one already right there and then if only I had the budget. I may have to settle for the meantime with my current timepiece, and buy one of the SevenFriday's on the next pay time.

Daniel was so very accommodating, and looks really good even while wearing two watches. When asked if he regularly wears a pair, he jokingly said it's best when you want to sneak fast through airport security. Lol.

The two watches he was wearing had some difference in design and features, so why
 not if you want to wear two at the same time.
