Japanese clothing brand galaxxxy is collaborating with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and '80s sci-fi anime series Dirty Pair (respectively) in two new apparel collections.
In honor of the 20th anniversary of Sailor Moon, Bandai's cosmetics line Creer Beaute announced the release of cosmetics inspired by Usagi Tsukino (aka Serena, if you grew up with the dubbed series). Creer Beaute's Miracle Romance Shining Moon Powder appears to be both a blush and an illuminating powder, and is encased in a compact that closely resembles Sailor Moon's Crystal Star Transformation Brooch. The compact also doubles as a necklace for those of you who want to channel your inner magical girl without having to sacrifice $100+ on vintage Sailor Moon toys on eBay. The compact is currently available for pre-order for ¥3980 (approximately $41) on Bandai, and will ship in Fall 2013.

It doesn't matter if you study Akira Toriyama's original manga, re-watch hundreds of subtitled Japanese episodes or spend every night at a local pub sobbing into pint glass after empty pint glass, fate dealt you 53 episodes and three animated features worth of highly localized and arguably sorta goofy DBZ circa the mid-late '90s and, by Kami, FUNimation is going to cater to your sentimentality with a new $99.98 box set collecting all that biz this August.

I assume they're still around (especially now that you don't have to spend all night downloading them on Usenet), but on the off chance that you're not familiar, the idea was that people would edit together scenes from anime to one of the popular tunes of the day. My p

One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda's manga illustrations lend themselves to plenty of awesome body art and tattoo ideas, but Reddit user Dre2k has uploaded what may be the raddest on-skin representation of series protagonist Monkey D. Luffy I've ever laid
Normally, when you see a news story that's focusing on an alarming new trend among high school students, it's almost always someone trying to terrify adults with the knowledge that children are, I don't know, texting. Toda
I've never been a huge fan of DragonBall Z, Akira Toriyama's long-running story of landscape shots, shouting and occasional super ultimate planet-destroying martial arts attacks. Admittedly, that sounds like something I'd be totally into, so I'm starting to think that it's not the st
