Welcome to Dogasu's Backpack, a fansite for the Japanese franchise Pocket Monsters!  For eight years, this website is your guide for the Japanese version of Pokémon and contains content you can't find anywhere else, such as comparisons between the Japanese version and the English version of the anime, English-Japanese lists for all pokemon, information on the various manga, a lyrics database, and much more!  So whether you're a seasoned veteran or a newbie just getting into Pocket Monsters, this site has something for every fan to enjoy.




Pokemon Bashing
May 11th, 2008

Dogasu @ 23:31 JST -- So the Pokemon Bashing section's been converted.  I've also gone through pretty much all the pages and cleaned them up considerably, getting rid of my "witty" (i.e. lame) commentary and rewriting large portions of other articles.  I've also added a few screencaps from the DVDs to help liven some of the pages up. 

In other news, a list of games that will be accompanying the North American launch of the WiiWare service has been released, and Everyone's Pokemon Ranch does not appear.  At this point, nobody really knows when this thing will be released, so I updated the Wii Downloads page to reflect this.

I've also updated the List of Anime Episodes with a new Japanese title.

Next up will be a revamp of the Features section which will include a new feature.

Humor
May 8th, 2008

Dogasu @ 23:46 JST -- Humor section's been converted.  I've even gone through it and made sure all the links were up-to-date and everything!

I've also updated the List of Anime Episodes with new dub titles.  And speaking of the dub, it's actually been pretty amusing to watch the shitstorm being thrown up over Cartoon Network going a week without airing a new episode.  This fandom never ceases to amaze me.

Finally, I've added information about the Virtual Console release of Pokémon Puzzle League over in the Video Games Guide.  It's so nice when your predictions come true...

My goal is to have the Bashing section converted to the new layout within the next few days.

Manga Guide, Video Games Guide
May 3rd, 2008

Dogasu @ 12:27 JST -- So I finish out the "Guides" heading over on the left with work on converting the Manga Guide and the Video Games Guide to the new layout being complete.  When I get a scanner here in Japan, I'll be sure to make a better banner for the Manga section.  I've also made a few minor tweaks to the Video Games Guide; mainly, adding various American release dates and adding information about what was removed from the American version of Smash Bros. Brawl.

It's Golden Week here in Japan, so I'll be out of town visiting friends during the long holiday.  But since my updates come like a week apart anyway, I doubt you'll notice my absense :/

Here's a video I was sent to watch in the meantime!

Lyrics Archive
April 28th, 2008

Dogasu @ 07:43 JST -- So that whole thing about finishing the layout stuff by this weekend obviously isn't going to happen.  Sorry about that.

I did manage to get the Lyrics Archive converted to the new layout, though.  Unfortunately, I didn't take the time to redo each page (I have no idea why I thought it'd be a good idea to write each katakana word in ALL CAPS).  I also didn't get to get some better, DVD-quality screencaps for each page.  But someday...

I've also updated the List of Anime Episodes with the actual episode titles for DP 080 and DP 081.  Posting fake titles is embarrassing :(

Also...check out this web comic, Super Effective!  Apparently, the VG Cats comics, people (guy?) has all these ideas swirling around in their heads for Pokemon-themed comics, so instead of cluttering up the main site with these comics, they decided to post them all in a mini-site instead.  They'll apparently be working their way through the storyline of Pokemon FireRed, so they should be posting comics for quite a while.  I could make a really mean comment about the suckiness of some other web comic right now, but...naaah.  It's too easy.

Until next time!

No voice actor "debates" going on here!
April 23rd, 2008

Dogasu @ 23:53 JST -- I'm actually staying up later than I want to to have this up before the end of the day.  But I guess that's better than reneging on the promise I made to have this layout business done by the end of the week, isn't it?

So the Voice Actors Guide has been converted to the new layout.  The section, like the CD Guide, is one that is long overdue for a massive overhaul, but that won't happen right away.  I don't even think there's any information about the Advanced Generation characters on there!  I've also replaced some of the pictures with DVD screencaps since having crappy TV screencaps is sooooooooo 1998.

I know the banner doesn't look so great right now...I'll be sure to fix it in the morning.

I've also updated the List of Anime Episodes with new Japanese titles. 

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be busy with a Japanese lesson, so the next update may not come until Friday.
