What’s up! So I got here looking for a new Anime to watch, but I’m lost…. does anyone have any suggestions? I’m into Adventure Anime, and I just can’t seem to find any that are good at the moment…

[...] Over on my friend’s Anime London (that’s London, Canada) Blog, he posted an interesting article about his encounter with some fans of Japanese dolls of the more modern variety. Interesting to see another facet of Japanese fandom slowly slipping into our own anime fandom culture, especially one that resonnates with already existing non anime fandom groups! Make sure you read the comments that go with the article. [...]

I managed to fix the videos page to now play both Youtube and Dailymotion on site. I will further tweak the page system for the upcoming convention season. This will mean that video can now be posted as they are posted on Youtube and/or Dailymotion.

I will also be tweaking it so thecoding is more uniformed so I don’t need to rewrite the pages for each con.

I was going to suggest setting up a section in our forums but it looks like Den of Angels has that covered. There used to be a doll store on Picadilly Street but I walked by today and it\'s long gone. You might want to check out The Smallest Bento which also has links to MET which hosts a doll and miniature show every year at the JCCC. From their site, you might be able to find some stores and shows locally. I just wonder how many other people in London are into this hobby?

Actually, ABJD are getting semi-regular coverage in a doll magazine called Haute Doll, which covers current doll trends. So yes, I’m sure they’ve noticed.

I also wouldn’t consider the BJD community to be a corner of the anime community; some come from an anime background, yes, but there are still a fair number that come from the general doll collecting community as well.

VOLKS is the only Japanese maker of these dolls; the rest are Korean or Chinese (with the majority being Korean).

If anyone would like more information, I suggest going to http://www.denofangels.com/forums

Hi there, I live in London and own 4 ball joint dolls. Even though 3 are from Japan, the majority of ball joint dolls are made/come from Korea. There are a few US distributors of bjd such as denverdoll, dollfair, junkyspot and VolksUSA, just to name a few. I have never walked into or seen a doll store; I wouldn’t consider the ball-joint doll community to be a segment off of the anime community, but more a segment off of Asian-culture or something of that sort.
