Anime: Donate to Japan

Due to the earthquake and tsunami that has hit Japan, Hawaii, California and many other locations within the Pacific there will be no new One Piece episode this week.

This is a horrible event that has hit the people of Japan and other places of the world. I am sure that everybody on the blog wishes the people of Japan the best and hope that they are able to stay strong in this moment of pain and suffering. Being in a disaster area is never a good thing and people are suffering. This is the time where we should be coming together to help other people.


Surely you have heard from the news that Japan and other places was recently hit by a earthquake and tsunami. An 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit Japan and because of that caused a tsunami that has affected other parts of the world. There are several people who have been hurt by this event because of this earthquake and tsunami.

The people of Japan is in need of help and maybe one of the best ways to help is to donate. Many other sites are taking donations to help Japan. The One Piece Podcast and other podcasts are going to conduct a 24 hr podcast to raise money for relief. Podcasts that are taking part in this includes: The Unofficial One Podcast, SSAA Podcast, Jammer AniMovie Podcast, The Fullmetal Podcast, Kohaha Podcast, That Anime Show, Chainsaw Buffet, and Not Another Cartoon Podcast. All this fun podcasting donation drive will start on Saturday 19th at 6 pm and will go to Sunday the 20th. See Anime Fans Give Back to Japan Podcast for more details on this podcast.

At least smile since there is always a positive side

Please take the time to donate to one of the sites below. Right now is a time to pray and help the people around us in some form or way. We shouldn't be caring about whatever or not a certain Japanese voice actors and stars are alive. Nor should we be worrying about if our favorite animes and mangas are going to be coming out with new material this coming week. Right now we need to come together and help out our fellow human beings. We need to worry about the people of Japan and everybody affected by this disaster as a whole. So please take the time to help out and donate.
