It's only 30 hours until the end of this years "Cutest Anime Girl" contest. Your last chance to  register ,  log in and  vote for the full possible 24 points.

The contest ends at midnight 24th December 2011. The winning girl will be announced about 12 hours later.

Don't forget to check out last years winners. We have a  list.

Really? Have you? I know most of you haven't even bought them.

But this time you're in luck: Our long-time forum member and  star doujinshi-artist Hiki a.k.a. Kaigara a.k.a. Gyaruru has added some x-mas cards (size: 11x14 cm) to  her shop with some cute artworks for a very reasonable price.

She also has a  very cute T-shirt for only € 10 (approx. US$ 13.50)...

Enough advertising Meowww~~ ^.^

Most of you have noticed already: The ' Cutest Anime Girl 2011' contest has started. Here are some hints for you to vote for your favorite girl. In case you have voted last year, please go directly to the  voting booth, the rules have not changed in 11 years.

If you happen to own a registered account here at AAW you should make sure to  log on before voting. This way you will save a lot of work: the site will proxy-vote for you every day so your one vote will count 24 times an unregistered members vote. (Of course you can vote once only)  We'll try to delete any double votes (people voting registered, then logging off and voting another 24 unregistered votes)

If you chose not to register here it's fine but you need to come back every day and vote for your favorite girl. Plus you cannot win the DVD. Why? It's a real physical DVD so we need to ask you for your address to send the DVD to, a thing we cannot ask you without having a valid email address of yours, truly.

Direct any contest related questions to sakura (at) allanime (dot) org. Any technical questions should be directed to olray (at) allanime (dot) org. If you have purrroblems voting please take our  cookie test and send the results with your email.

 Now go and vote!

Thanks for waiting for our forum member's Oldwrench sci-fi story "5 minutes." He sent a full dozen of new chapters (72 to 84) increasing the size from 163 to 194 pages of reading fun.. The story is based on one of our forum role playing games. The story is still unfinished. Please do not print or distribute!

The pdf file is  available here for free download.

We really could use help with illustrations which are included when the book is in print. Please read the following box:

We're looking for artists to provide us with unique, original doodles ("line-art") or even colored works for inclusion with both the pdf and the printed book. These works may not depict any existing mecha (Gundam, Neon Genesis Evangelion, or any other!) No professional work needed. Credit is given. If you think you can do it please send email to  Sakura-chan.
