It's time for some more otaku culture craziness!Main translation by 黄金ファット, with some polishing up and editing by me, and a lot of help from htsuji and mogura on language and references!
And now, a quick guide to the references contained, for those who aren't hardcore enough to get them all. Feel free to add anything I missed of forgot.* The "Red Quad-Stars" is a reference to the "Black Tri-Stars" team from Gundam.* "Lum" is a reference to Ursuei Yatsura (that one's pretty obvious, I guess).* "Giren" is another Gundam reference.* "Uguu~" is a Kanon reference.* "Tomino and Anno" are Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hideaki Anno, directors of Gundam and Evangelion, respectively.* Panda! Go Panda! is a very old show that Hayao Miyazaki worked on.* Kimba the White Lion is a sixties anime by Osamu Tezuka. The Lion King is often accused of being a ripoff of it.* Nadia is Gainax's and Hideaki Anno's first TV show. Atlantis is similarly accused of being a ripoff of this.* Tsutomu Miyazaki is an otaku turned serial killer, which predictably caused a big backlash against anime and otaku: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsutomu_Miyazaki
* Sazae-san, Crayon Shin-chan and Chibi Maruko-chan are all very popular children's anime that aren't very well-known outside Japan.* Ojamajo Doremi is a children's show popular with otaku. The second version is originally titled Mo~tto! Ojamajo Doremi, which translates as in the comic.* Nobuyo Oyama is the voice actor of Doreamon, in the show of the same name. It is immensely popular in Japan, but not much outside it.* Masako Nozawa is, obviously, the person who does Son Goku in Dragonball.* Megumi Hayashibara should be known to all otaku. She is a very popular voice actress (Rei in Evangelion, for instance)and idol singer.* Miina Tominaga's name is written "Mi~na Tominaga", because it's cute.* Explaining that the final page is a reference to DiGi Charat just seems dumb.
