Manga or manhwa, if it’s lucky enough, lives on beyond the pages and onto the small or the big screen. If it’s even luckier, manga/manhwa makes it to my list of top 5 manga turned live action. More »


Hayao Miyazaki’s Kiki’s Delivery Service does indeed deliver. What, you might ask? 105 minutes of a great animated film that’s a coming-of-age story for a young witch named Kiki. Kiki isn’t a witch like you’d imagine witches to be. She’s more of a kind-hearted, Glenda from the Wizard of Oz type of witch. More »

In anticipation of Bong Joon-Ho’s Mother opening in theaters this Friday, we’re giving away three The Host (2-disc collector’s edition) DVDs to three lucky people.

Ponyo is to Hayao Miyazaki as Little Mermaid is to Disney. Growing up it’s always been a childhood dream of mine to become Ariel from The Little Mermaid — red hair, sea shell bra and all. There wasn’t a pool in sight that I didn’t reenact Ariel emerging from the water to do the famous, fierce Ariel hair-toss-out-of-the-water move. Having just seen Ponyo, I feel like I ought to take back all those embarrassing childhood memories. More »

Before writing this, I swore I’d stay away from using cliches like “March Madness” but then realized, I can’t. I just wrote it, and you just read it. So read this: Wow, March Madness! Not just in the world of college basketball, but in the world of Ningin. This week in the world of Ningin, we’ve gone absolutely mad. First there’s this week’s Manga Mania. It’s a special, all about manga. Even madder, we’re giving away an FT Island MBC Collection DVD + photobook set to one lucky user. More »


Ever wonder how you measure up when it comes to flash games? This week’s pin challenge will tell you. The pin challenge game in question is Accumetry. Accumetry is a simple game that uses geometric shapes to test the accuracy of your eyes without using geometry instruments. When I think of geometry instruments, I think of CBS’ The Big Bang Theory. Nerds in a nutshell. More »

His mother in the film is determined to prove him innocent. More »

The best things in life are for free. By “best things in life,” I mean a screening of Bong Joon-ho’s Mother movie in LA on Tuesday, March 9 at 7 p.m. Oh, but Jinra, nothing in life is for free! Wrong. If you’re in LA and want to watch Mother before it officially hits theaters next month, you may want to consider the following details. More »


If Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro was medicine, I’d say it’d be the cure for old age. Sure, I’m only 25 but a lot of things remind me of my old age on a daily basis. Justin Bieber, body aches and pains in places never before and the constant urge to fight every possible chance to leave home to name a few. Staying in one night to watch the special edition DVD of My Neighbor Totoro was like having the fountain of youth in front of me, in DVD format. More »
