Here’s some actual singing…

You Are [Not] Alone did it again for a second week in a row in the Japanese Animation DVD Ranking. Meet the Robinsons, and Mobile Suit Gundam 00 #4 rounds up the top three respectively.
In the other news….
Have you ever wanted to know what an LCL tastes like? Well now you have the chance to have a glass of it.
The Cure Maid Café in Tokyo’s Akihabara otaku shopping district is updating and reviving its Eva Cafe menu until May 18 to mark the April 25 DVD release of the Evangelion: 1.0 You Are [Not] Alone film in Japan. One of the restored menu items is the LCL Drink orange juice served in a bonus Puka-Puka Rei-chan tumbler glass. It serves Sachiel Pasta (squid-ink pasta with a cheese angel head and a cherry tomato) and a Dialogue and Character Name Cheesecake (cake with random dialogue lines and character names written on top). It also offers an Asuka cocktail (orange juice with pomegranate syrup) and a Rei cocktail (grapefruit juice with Blue Hawaii syrup).
The Pasela chain of Japanese restauants is offering a partly different Evangelion menu until May 25. For the Eva Honey Toast, the cafe takes its house specialty (a stack of honey-soaked toast) and tops it with a crucified Lilith angel and NERV logo. It also offers Sachiel Pasta, Misato’s Curry Ramen, and a pitcher of draft beer with the bonus Rei tumbler glass. The Akihabara branch of the chain replaces Eva Honey Toast with White Wing Honey Toast and adds “dessert of Zaruel.”
I’m not a food critic so I don’t really know how to judge this, but the presentation of ‘Sachiel pasta’ is a big “No“. Also, if you can still remember in the original tv series, Shinji, Ritsuko, and Pen-pen had a taste of Misato’s Curry Ramen, and the result was ..well awful (I wonder what the real one tastes like).
This evangelion-influenced-menu will be available for a limited time only, so if you’re too curious then I guess it’s not bad to order one.

Evangelion: 1.01 You Are (Not) Alone: Limited Design Edition, was released today (04/25/08) in Japan. The number “1.01″ means that pictures, editings and sounds of Eva: 1.0 are finely tuned for DVD by Anno.
The “Normal Edition” is set on May 21, 2008.
I just checked out this online shopping site, and the dvd was already sold out!
I wonder which studio is going to get most of the money… Gainax or Studio Khara?
