    Tokyotosho Hijacked - April Fools?

    I visited it and it said that my IP was logged or something to that effect, by some uh, security thingy. I don't know. I don't know if it's the real deal or not but I doubt it - seeing as it's this date, among other things.

    Man I logged on to a metal site which I usually frequent and today of all days that one seemed to be hijacked too. At first I thought that my entire intranet was defeated.

    I fucking hate april fools.

    If you highlight the full page, right underneath the DoJ logo is a link to the site.

    The other gag is that everything is labeled as a hentai. LOL

    Hehe, that reminds me of what K-F did once. I wonder how can they make it so that the person's country is shown?

    It looks pretty fake though. And if you keep the page open for awhile. It goes right back to normal.

    No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

    I wanted to make a thread for people to post April Fools gags they ran into online, but since there's already a thread vaguely about April Fools I'll just go with that.

    I didn't realize Tokyotosho had a history of this nonsense. It seems this year they're claiming that because China is taking over the internet they're renaming themselves Běijīng Túshūguǎn and dedicating themselves to Chinese media. And the site is now all done up in (extremely ugly) shades of red.

    Japanese website Akiba Blog has run a post saying that Dragon Quest IX went on sale.

    According to Akiba Blog, over two-thousand people lined up at midnight today for DQIX. Midnight. Today. Today is April 1, and Dragon Quest IX is slated for release this July.

    That is just mean spirited . You don't make an April fool joke about something important like that.

    yeah, on youtube add &flip=1 to the end of the url to flip it upside down. likewise, remove it from the address to view normally.

    http://www.youtube.com/t/new_viewing_experience

    also ANN has a nice article about anime studios doing april fools jokes.

    http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...april-fool-day

    i downloaded the KotonohasamaDays. i wonder if it'll get subs xD.
    it makes me want to download the Magical Heart Kokoro-chan schooldays ova to get an idea of how much of that was reused...

    Ah....excuse the double post (or not), but I just read Manga Trader's "serious" issue:

    http://forums.mangatraders.com/index.php?topic=4539

    I was completely into it until halfway through the second paragraph, after which I read it with a grin .....

    Edit: Yuki must be having fun.

    That particular text would have been slightly more believable if Wilik's "true" indentity had been a tad closer to earth. A babushka was a bit on the unlikely side.

    Still, it might be better this way: People intending to donate would stop themselves if it was too believable.

    Happy April Fool's Day everyone! I liked the YouTube link.
