Transmission: Hello World

Since every online venture remotely related to blogging appears to require an introductory post, here is ours… or at least mine.

What is Animenauts?

We are a new anime site that you’ve probably seen before a million times, by other names, in other forms. A blog, a review site, a news site… surely it’s been done to death?

But I aim to present the world of Japanese animation, its cultural norms, and the subcultures of its myriad fandoms to those unfamiliar with its jargon, its habits, and its memes. There are plenty of other like-minded blogs out there; we can try to be different, or we can try to be ourselves.

We may not succeed, but while we’re still online, we hope you’ll have a pleasant ride.

Welcome aboard.

Who are the Animenauts?

We are just two bloggers who happen to be interested in an anime blog as the above.

I’m DKellis. You can find my anime-related ramblings at Moe Check, or my life-in-general ramblings at my Livejournal. This blog will be a more formal repository of my commentaries and reviews of all things anime.
