Thriller Blanka Plus Alpha

The ST monitor is on the fritz, and it's given start-color Blanka a wonderfully ghoulish look. Pictures — and the name — courtesy of Riz0ne. Some new videos over here. GreenTea's team took first place in a 3rd Strike 2on that same evening.

Here are some tournaments going down this weekend. The times listed are for Japan.

Street Fighter IV - Nagoya Street Battle 11 3on3
12pm on November 28th
Stream TBA — maybe here

Last time they had 55 teams. ARG (@Claw) teamed up with Henboku and Kubo — SBO champs on Super Turbo, Arcana Heart and Melty Blood, respectively — but they lost first round.

Super Turbo - Thunder Beast Cup 3on3
1:30pm on November 29th
Stream

Raijuhai in Japanese. Akashachi Kancho probably came up with the name. He wrote that the idea is to have a big 3on3 in Chubu since Kanto has X-Mania and Kansai has Rekku Cup.

Vampire Savior - Baba Mikado Singles
3pm on November 28th (VH at 5)
Stream

I can't say with certainty that this event will be streamed live. They used to show all Mikado events but I'm not sure if that's still going on.

Akiman Exhibit

Last month a gallery in Akihabara ran an exhibition of some of Akiman's artwork.
