Collecting Shitajiki is a step forward in becoming an Otaku for life. Anime enthusiasts usually collect figurines created based on original or existing characters. For me, however, I take a different approach to collecting anime memorabilia. Shitajiki are pencil boards, like a clipboard–but without a clip, and with graphics. They are just like trading cards, but twice in size!

Author’s Note: This post was originally published in April 2008. I decided to give this post another life for anyone who is interested in collecting these. However, it’s been a minute since I’ve invested in them, but with having to republish this post, I just might give it another shot! Enjoy!

As we finally catch a break from all the excitement in the previous two episodes, we talk about the Life-sized Freedom Gundam being built in China, a mysterious Dragon Quest title to be announced in Shonen Jump, and fans of a globally popular (and probably obvious) K-Pop group appear to be defending their group a little too much. Sanjo-chan also talks about the results of the Community Poll for the next anime series to watch for a future podcast episode.

This entry is part 7 of 8 in the series Commentary - Pokémon: Twilight Wings

Episode 6 of Pokémon: Twilight Wings has been out for a few of weeks, but I finally managed to catch up on what’s going on–and considering this is usually the time a new episode is released, if it weren’t for the production delay. And with this episode, there are signs that this series will wrap up in the upcoming August episode. But before we bid farewell, let’s check out what the episode “Moonlight” has in store.
