However, we have the distraction that will take your mind off the weather and keep your eyeballs burning with action and charm. If action is what you want, catch 3x3 Eyes, as the our kids battle their way to the sacred land (they're getting close!), or check out Shadow Star, where the shadow dragon kids are still wreaking havoc in the skies.

In Club 9 "Hello" is knocking men's wallets loose unintentionally, to huge excess, and these guys have money (and influence) to spare. And don't forget your weekly dose of technical notes from Appleseed Hypernote. Remember, winter is cold, Super Manga Blast! Is hot.
