the latest iteration
Aug. 11th, 2010 11:30 amOne of the attractions of Otakon was the booth for "Super Kawaii Magazine", the publishers of which apparently have determined people are willing to shell out $15 for a magazine full of photos of cosplayers.
Something about the feverish worship of attention-whore culture and the barely-there editorial content about 'cutest websites' and 'cosplay tips' reminds me of something... what could it be... oh yeah.
Will "Super Kawaii Magazine" be as charmingly typo-filled as "Anime Iku"? Will the prospects of a second issue vanish into an accusatory mist of blog posts and unkept promises? Will the curse of the Canadian anime-lifestyle magazine never be broken? Only the space-age dollar bins of the future will answer these questions!!
Yeah, "Super Kawaii" is Canadian. You can tell by the blurb for "Storm Hawks." A stunningly ugly YTV show, "Storm Hawks" is one of those wannabe fake anime series that features jet planes that AMAZINGLY transform into... different jet planes. Our tax dollars at work!!
