News Anime Boston to Host Female Rock Band Stereopony
posted on 2011-02-09 03:01 EST
The Anime Boston convention announced on Tuesday that the all-female Japanese rock band Stereopony will perform at the April 22-24 event in Massachusetts.
The trio of Aimi (vocal/guitar), Nohana (bass), and Shino (drums) first formed in 2007 and gained fame when their debut single, "Hitohira no Hanabira," was featured as the 17th ending theme to Bleach. Their second single, "Namida no Mukō," then became the second opening theme to the second season of Mobile Suit Gundam 00, and it debuted at #2 on Oricon's weekly singles charts.
Since then, Stereopony has made its American performance debut at SXSW 2009, released its second album under Sony Records entitled Over the Border and released "Chisana Mahō," the opening theme to the ongoing anime Letter Bee Reverse. They were also put into anime themselves to promote "Sumairaifu," the theme song to the 2009 anime film Yatterman: Shin Yatter Mecha Daishūgō! Omocha no Kuni de Daikessen da Koron!
Stereopony will join by fellow Japanese musical guests Girugamesh at Anime Boston 2011. The convention had previously announced voice actors Brina Palencia, Christopher Ayres, Greg Ayres, J. Michael Tatum, and Richard Epcar as guests of honor.

Thermae Romae GN 2With its large size, glossy pages, and unusual subject matter, Thermae Romae is certainly one of the best looking manga on the market, to say nothing of one of the more interesting.

La Corda d'Oro GN 17For reverse harem fans or even those leery of the genre, La Corda d'Oro has consistently been an enjoyable story about both music and romance, and maybe even the romance of music. If its ending is not as conclusive as one might have wished, it is still a good one.
Sleeping Moon GN 1If you're looking for hardcore yaoi romance, this is not the series for you, but if you enjoy a supernatural tale with ominous overtones and the possibility of more serious romance in the next volume, give Sleeping Moon a chance.
Toriko GN 16As with most Toriko volumes, this is a book to gulped down rather than savored.
If you always thought about picking this title up but never got around to it then this is the version that you want. Newcomers will find a fun couple of fantasy adventure hours that will consistently entertain without straining your brain.
With this omnibus, we find ourselves caring a lot more about what happens, not just in terms of the story, but to the characters as well.
Tragicomedy is not unknown in the manga realm, and Sankarea just may be a very good entry into that genre, and this introductory volume offers us sadness, hope, and humor with a dollop of fanservice to top it off.
