Note: We now have three entries in for this idol but more entries are definitely welcome. Here’s your reminder to pass us your entries because it’s an excellent chance to showcase your writing and just have fun. We will start putting up the entries after April 1st or 2nd, so a “on-the-dot” entry will work fine. I cannot wait to see more entries by everyone. Cheers! To add a bit of feedback given by Alkanphel, when you submit your entry, make sure the entry is a length where you can maintain writing for 2 times per week.
Regards, Impz
The first question you probably ask is: Why bother to join the anime blogging team in THAT Anime Blog? You want one reason? We give you six good ones.
-
1. T.H.A.T Anime Blog is an excellent blog (*cough*) that has a good readership for your views to be shared onto the world.
-
2. Experience the challenge of tightly scheduling your own posts among a jungle of wild posts from the other co-bloggers!
-
3. Which other blog offers you the chance to post alongside a green haired loliphile who has legions of stalkers?
4. You might even be a personality in the wired world. A webcomic shrine worshiping you? The sky’s the limit.
-
5. Insightful commentors who will discuss intellectually with you on everything…yes, everything.
-
6. Lastly, not forgetting a blog owner with the weirdest sense of humor.
Will you become the first THAT Blogging Idol??
T.H.A.T Anime Blog is currently looking for the next victim writer that will be able to write prolifically in the anime blog to share his or her views to the wired world. There will only be only one, the chosen one, to be selected into our team. The steps are simple. First, email us at thatblog@gmail.com and send us an entry that you will blog in T.H.A.T Anime Blog.
At the end of March, we will gather all the entries and post it up on the blog. Provide screenshots if you want or anything you think will help your entry. Do whatever necessary it is to gather eyeballs. After posting it, we will factor in how many comments each entry will get. If your entry gets the most comments and the judges (who will be much worse than Simon Cowell) votes for you too, you will be the inaugural winner of T.H.A.T Blogging Idol.
Do you think you have what it takes to make it? Read on for the terms and conditions.
Terms and conditions
1. We will hope that the writer will be able to at least have two to three entries every week, of any length. On a more serious note, Impz does need someone to write with him due to his increasingly busy schedule.
2. No prior experience is required and all genres of manga/anime/merchandise/news (other than Hentai and ecchi) are allowed.
3. The writer can be the writer of another blog as long as he/she churns out original entries on T.H.A.T Anime Blog.
4. A basic standard of English will be imposed. If the entry has significant problematic grammatical mistakes, T.H.A.T Anime Blog reserves the right to consider the entry to be a void entry.
5. The closing date of entry acceptance will be March 30th, 12am, GMT +8.
6. The authors of T.H.A.T Anime Blog reserves the right to withdraw an offer of a blogger place if circumstances beyond its control prevent it from accepting the eventual winner.

*shifty eyes* Did I ruin anything by being too early?
nothing ^^….EVERYONE JOIN AND SEND US DESU~
Oh Schnap! I missed out on being the first commenter!
But here’s to wishing Impz and the rest of THIS crew the best of luck in finding their new blood.
I pray Impz will be friendly with fresh meat and not introduce him to the chair of infinite pain early on in his writing care-I’ve said too much.
All in all, best of luck to all applicants…and bring some protection.
Cheerio.
Good luck with the search, Impz.
amusing….
I’m assuming you want “real” anime blogging on your anime blog, impz? In which case my skills are useless here?
iDOLBLOGG3R Xenoglossia
Blog anime. Save the world.
first time wandering around a blog….
Lol.
Can I be part of the IMPZ Harbour Protection Front? Then we can eat pizza and smoked cheese all day.
LOL is this some idol contest?
A wish of good luck to you.
Hmmm. Oh, why not? I might as well do this for kicks.
Darkshaunz
Don’t worry. I got my Zenkai Kiaidan set should Impz do anything weird to the applicants, especially those that are suitable of being a green hair loli. Ha ha ha!
LOL, I’d enter but I really don’t think I’d be any good at it.
But if she enters I vote for 13sugars! I think she’d be a great blogger.
I just like the part about Impzy having legions of stalkers. From what I’ve seen of some of the posts, its true, its so true.
Good Luck all!
Good luck finding a sucker for the ‘shrine’ bit; I don’t think that IMPZ Comics counts as the type of worship I’d enjoy….
For all who are thinking how egoistic Impz is when he writes this, it’s meant to be extremely sarcastic and idiotic (aka, very exaggerated and probably untrue).
However, the request for a writer is real and I do need someone, so if you are interested, just write an entry and send it to us ^^
I’d join if there was a post for “Impz comic artist” LOL
Don’t forget the occupational hazards too.
Kuro: Like tj_han, who is currently running for his life after saying that his male Dolfies had bigger breasts than 90% of Singaporean girls?
Tempting, very tempting. Since my blog is widely syndicated across primarily Open Source / Free Software geekdom, I hear mutterings sometimes that anime is off-topic and why don’t I take it, you know… _elsewhere_. On the other hand, I don’t even like yuri! I don’t see myself as a good match…
Wait, wha?
No prize? No money? No, uh… … … … …
Oh look there’s a chair.
~DJ~ You should enter! I’d love to read the things you’ll be writing. I’d say go for it! ^^
“I just like the part about Impzy having legions of stalkers. From what I’ve seen of some of the posts, its true, its so true.” Really? Where are they? I wanna read these posts too. (lol)
As for me, I’m not sure if I should join knowing my talents (ehem) are best served being a commentator. Plus, my articles would be probably more like anime blog reviews with titles such as “The 10 Adorable Things Anime Bloggers Say/Do in Their Anime Blogs,
So tempted….but since I cant understand Japanese and or Chinese subs which seem to be the faster out Id always have to wait for subs…so Ill leave it up to you guys
@ThirteenSugars, you are too kind! Actually I think your proposed articles sound like they could be a lot of fun.
Hehe I was referring to Na2niet asking Impzy out.
We’re harem ladies? LOL! So does this mean we have to start calling Impzy Master?
“(rofwlmao Just for that->)Watashi no goshujin-sama, aji ga nai! Amai sugiru”
Kya!
I sense some nosebleeds…
And here I thought that THAT won’t be getting anymore writers.
Good luck in your search and good luck to all who partcipate. Can’t wait to see what new personality shall be added to this quirky bunch xD
~Impz,Me too,(13sugars) I think is the best!
~13sugars,go go go go!13sugars!
I’d have voted for 13 Sugars as well
Her topics sounds like the topics we need to provide a variety of subjects besides all the usual anime summaries here.
*Decides to see if the auditions are sabotagable…*
To clarify some things
1. Yes, you can be an existing blogger. Just make sure you write original stuff on this blog when you do.
2. Any content is fine. Seriously, as long as it’s related to anime/manga (no hentai), it is fine by me. I do not bind any restrictions and contradictory to expectations, I am hardly a tyrant in controlling the blog with an iron fist. Iron fist…hmmm.
3. If you have anything to ask me, you can either email us with the email given above, or you can request for my IM case by case for a clearer picture desu~
4. Some people had concerns that they cannot blog the entry like instantly when it comes out. I promise you that I honestly do not mind it. It’s simply up to you what you want to do. Blog older series? Blog new series? Blog this or that? I will give advice of course on what to do, but it’s just an opinion from me, that’s all ^^
@13sugars:….*nosebleeds and turns dizzy*
…(blushes to a plum red color)…
~DJ, Na2niet & Alkanphel~ Goodness! A cotton candy seems to wrap up around my heart again making me feel all warm and giddy. I’ll have trouble sleeping again. (sighs) ^^ The flattering supports are truly blush-inducing compliments. But I really doubt I’ll compete for the honor of being the next THAT anime blogger. But like most of the others here, I too can’t wait to see who the applicants are and what will be the dishes they’ll serve to us blog viewers. ^^ I can’t wait to see their entries. This is going to be fun! I do hope that some of the good-commentors here also compete since most of them seem to have a potential to be a wonderful blogger. It’s a pity only one will be chosen.
~DJ~ “We’re harem ladies? LOL! So does this mean we have to start calling Impzy Master?
@ThirteenSugars, hmm yes this is true, we should get clarfication as to the rules of the harem ^-^
And if you keep calling Impzy Master he’s going to need a transfusion! ..just don’t tell him about the maids outfit…
I think that could easily be added as an incentive!
Awww Impz is feeling lonely. Even though we have 7 writers, Impz is the only one who actually does anything with any sort of regularity here heheh.
Hopefully you’ll have more luck this time and find someone who writes well and often. <_<
@DJ: Meido @_@ ?
*FAINTS from loss of blood*
^_^;;; And well, it might not be only one person. If i get really good writers, why not two
~DJ~ Oh, look what happened? He fainted. I guess it’s a good thing you didn’t say about the apron, bunny and kitty outfits. Meow! Meow!
And soon you’ll make a football (soccer) team out of THAT blog
Good luck everyone. This is much better than American Idol, that’s for sure (as long as no singing).
Heh. It’s a unique idea at least. I’m not interested in doing it, as I don’t think my blogging skills/interest are up to the level probably needed here, but it will be intriguing to see what happens at the end of the contest.
And I didn’t even realize that more than one person wrote on this blog…
-snicker- I wanna see who’s gonna be the newest addition to THAT, The Happy Association of Traps~ XDDD
At any rate, I really should finish the entry I’m doing so I can show that I still live >.
@ThirteenSugars, poor Impzy he’s going to be anemic by the end of this.
T_T;;; This is evil. Anyway, for anyone keen on applying, please go ahead! ^+^
~Impz-sama, your gonna have gray hair heh!
~13sugars,I do like you,to be in this blog!I wonder? I think your one of the best!you can do it…..go 13sugars…go go go!
~D.J,hello!you can do it as well,I’m sure….!
@na2niet, thank you!
Hmm well if I were to do it one problem I would have is what to blog that isn’t already being blogged.
I think about the only thing I am following that you don’t hear much about anymore is the InuYasha manga and I really don’t know if there is much interest for that any more.
And Takahashi is supposedly going to end it at around 500 chapters, which is coming up fairly soon. Although considering how far she’s dragged it so far it wouldn’t surprise me to see her drag it a little further.
Although I swear if she resurrects Kikyou again, or gives Tetsusaiga or Tensaiga yet another upgrade. I will be catching the first plane to Japan, to personally lay the smack down on her.
I also like the manga Koukou debut, but it seems like its been forever since there was an update for that. And my other favourite Hana Kimi has actually finished in Japan.
LOL there’s more manga here than anime!!
no ecchi blogging? WTF lol j/k hope you get some good bloggers impz!
Quick! Someone sign up and blog MECHA in impz’s blog and defile it!
:D:D
Have you guys had many entries yet?
0 actually for now. We welcome as many entries as possible ^_^;;; A few have expressed interest though.
I have sent an entry! Check teh e-mail. Of course, that will be my entrance entry. =P
hmmm, i didn’t see any entry as yet. Did you send it right @_@ ?
*edits* found it, FIRST ENTRY, come 1, come all ^^
My first reaction when I saw this post was to lose my jaw. Posted today, with 47 comments within 15 minutes of my RSS reader grabbing it? I was in shock. And then I saw that it was an updated post. Hmm.
Ok, less weirded out now @_@
@lolikit: haha, yeah. That’s what I thought when I saw the entry as well. Didn’t think a comment boom would happen so fast XD
Oh, updated post… Sorry, there, in that case I’ve already commented, lolz. Not much to say except that I’m still a bit too attached to my blog to consider this sort of thing…
OMG. I just read this post today… been too busy, lol. Anyways, I still read Inuyasha manga and its going on pretty nicely ^^ haha. But the only manga I read are Naruto, Bleach (both yay!), Inuyasha, Tsubasa Chronicles and Dear boys. N if I write it soon enough… will it be still within the deadline? oo.
