Kanata no Astra out in blu-ray:

Thank goodness.  Something has come out to watch.  Dimension W and Kiniro Mosaic's manga volumes were delayed to the 31st and 24th respectively so there was nothing left to do.  Now I can fulfill my pledge to rewatch all great anime and fill in the gap left by the lack of March Madness.

As a bonus, the newest episode of One Pace was also released.  I guess we didn't have to wait another five months after all.

Also, 'A World Divided' by Russel Brower was determined to be a remix and cut.  The new music hall of fame total is 5469 songs.  Once I listen to them all 100 times, I plan on rating them on a curve.  So the lowest 1/5 get a 1 star rating, the top 1/5 get a 5 star rating.  Points will be distributed on a quality x quantity basis, where 1 star gets 1 point, 2 stars 2 points, 3 stars 4 points, 4 stars 8 points, and 5 stars 16 points.  An exponential scale, because the few songs that really blow you away are worth 16 mediocre songs easy.

Once I re-rate my composers on quality x quantity, instead of the current quantity only basis, I'll re-list my top 200 eminent composers based on their points scale order.  I can't wait!  Only, that dream is still at least 2 years away.  There's still a lot of music left to listen to, and inevitably more will come before I clear out my current slate.  Getting rid of the dead flesh like these remixes will at least hasten the process though.
