Tenth Level Anime and Gaming

Welcome to our Anime/ DDR / Gaming web site!

The Dance Dance Revolution series is finally making its way to Xbox with Konami's new Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix. It comes as no surprise that DDR Ultramix looks and plays exactly like previous DDR titles. And, being successful requires a certain, bizarre, athletic ability that only the few gifted elite possess. But, even without any clue as to what you're doing or some innate natural ability, DDR Ultramix brings that level of fun to newbies that only horribly embarrassing yourself in front of strangers can provide. (Yes, it is wise to practice at home first).

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Konami's long-running rhythm series, Dance Dance Revolution is a game that is played with a flat dance mat that sits on your floor. It has four arrows on it. These arrows correspond to the onscreen action, which consists of arrows that rise to the top of the screen in time with the music. When the rising arrows hit a mark near the top of the screen, that's your cue to step on the proper arrow. It'll take a few hours for most people to really wrap their minds around the concept and to start reading the arrows with enough warning to really play properly. The game's training mode is helpful for those new players who can't seem to pick it up. The game can be played without a dance mat, but that really defeats the purpose.

Naruto, a ninja manga series by Kishimoto Masashi, began in Weekly Jump #43, 1999. Since then, it has become one of the most popular series in Jump, giving One Piece a run for its money in popularity. The story follows Naruto, a young ninja in training, who also happens to be the reincarnate of the Nine-Tails Fox Demon, his teacher, his teammates, and a large cast of other Ninjas. The series is still going strong today, with 21 volumes to date.
