Toon Disney to become DisneyXD

According to LA Times, Disney is planning on shaking up its Toon Disney Channel by appealing to boys more. The new name for the channel will be DisneyXD and will showcase new live action and anime shows. The change will take place February 2009.
One of DisneyXD's first new series will be a joint effort between Disney and Japanese studio "Toei-Animation" called RoboDz. The story revolves around three humanoid robots that protect mankind and earth from invading aliens. Looks interesting and might be fun. You can see a video preview of this new anime on RoboDz's site. I know the website is in Japanese but all you need to do is find the picture on the left with the three characters lined up with the video play button over them. Click on the play button to download the link to buffer the video and then click on the downloaded link on you desktop. Your video player will then start playing the preview. Enjoy!

Yeah! *Clap*Clap*Clap* How wonderful for you. Take in a Panchinko parlor, Ginza (food & shopping) especially spectacular at night.
There's the imperial palace and Asakusa for a historic look of Tokyo (The Sensoji Temple)
