Otaku Magazine closes

Otaku Magazine


Sad times my friends L

Anime and manga is a major part of my life and I do my best to keep up to date with what is kicking bum in the world of Japanese animation.
South Africa had but one leg to stand on when it came to having the inside scoop on the whole scene, which came in the form of our very own home brewed Otaku Magazine.

Recently the bad news reached my ears that the magazine was being forced into closure and I was truly shocked.
It seems that Otaku magazine has fallen prey to the economic downturn, lack of advertisers and the evil actions of Chronos Corporation (that last one was for the fans).
But in all seriousness, it is a sad day for South African otaku’s who as it is are starved of full force manga and anime culture.

Springleap- the poet! ‘DESIGN, WIN, FAMOUS’

Creative expression is a means to provide strength and understanding to change how we feel and interact with forces existing in us and all works of art made by others can remodel our inner realities. Today I found myself looking at all the Springleap tees designs and like the poetic power of Shakespeare I was moved by its awesomeness!!!

Each of the tees has a message straight from the designers fingers and I gathered if I were to comprehend their inner imaginations and emotions and style at the time of their designing this could possibly be their disposition… So on the designers behalf I write this poem… It’s called

‘DESIGN, WIN, FAMOUS’

Animation mix, angel glow

I, your creator smile at you

Inner me, breathing free

I devised your creation, prized

Outer colour, creative will

Oh, beautiful Tee dress your love all over me

Timeless warps, your master calls

To tears and songs you moved my soul

Hard-hitting effects, our special moments

Oh, I am proud of my precious tee!

Thou art perfect in chronicle, concept and design,

And so you instill your enlightened gifts in all!

This is the effect that makes art and designing worthwhile. You need to feel it with all in you. Experience it with all of you. And create it with a kind of a lofty inner reality that represents you!

For you are the master of this world, you control it and thus you have the power to transform all of you into the real world! This is the goal to reflect your way of thinking and seeing and experiencing and feeling in a t-shirt design. Now that’s something to think about!
