News Update: 100 Posts, Massive TF list, and a Request to Readers

Huzzah! Male Transformations has passed the 100 post mark! To be honest, it should have passed that years ago, but I feel that only in the past year have I really hit my stride. To celebrate, two very large posts are planned for next month, one involving an Argentinian soap opera and the other four versions of a classic anime series.

In the meantime, I've come across the motherlode of Transformation alerts--a Japanese TF site has put up a massive list of anime episodes that feature transformation scenes. Even better, most of the entries have video links! See it all here. The only problem is that it's all in Japanese and there's a huge amount of material to plow through. I've started work with google translate and I'm a tenth of the way through.

So, I have a request for any readers who happen to know Japanese. If you have free time, please take a look at the list, and if you see anything good, let me know! By "good" I mean any transformation involving male characters that are not of the "poof!" or instant variety. And just to warn you, it looks like most of the TFs on that page are instant. Additionally, I'd prefer not to post any TF videos that can be found on Dutch Bull or Stonegate's sites. So, now that that's out of the way, have fun!

Gokudo (Age Progression Transformation)

 Here's an age progression scene from episode 24 of the comedic fantasy anime Gokudo. It's quick but features some nice clothes-bursting...

News Update: Update at Dutchbull's!

Drop what you're doing and head on over to Dutchbull's site, because he's updated! Make sure to check out his videos from the latest seasons of the British and American Being Human. The latter is still inferior to the original, though it did have one good idea: introducing purebreed werewolves (i.e., who have been born that way). And unlike that mopey bore Josh, the purebreds are quite happy being amoral superbeasts. One was played by an actor who looked like a depraved Adonis and gave an ample demonstration why evil is sexier than good. Instead of keeping him around, the show got rid of him of course. Let's hope the new season of Teen Wolf does better on the televised lycanthropy front. In the meantime, mark your calendars for Dutchbull's next update in July.

Fantaghiro: The Cave of the Golden Rose (Monster Transformation)

From what I can tell, Fantaghiro: The Cave of the Golden Rose is a fantasy miniseries. Its antihero is in love with the heroine but has nasty problem--every time he tries to kiss her he turns into a monster. (He looks something like a cross between an ogre and the wolfman.) The TF is mostly facial but relatively detailed.

Here's the first TF:



 And here's the second:
 

The Regular Show (Skunk Transformation)

In the episode "Skunked" Rigby the Racoon runs afoul of a wereskunk...and then starts transforming into one. The TF is spread out across the whole episode. At first he just hulks out (2:42 and 3:22), then gets even bigger (5:45 and 7:24), then his fur starts turning black (7:49 and 8:45), though he doesn't transform all the way.
