I just purchased the latest issue of Shonen Jump’s Naruto Fall 2008 Posterzine, and with it includes a iTunes download code for a free episode of the first episode of Naruto–Uncut!

FaceYourManga is a new service where you can make your own avatar for popular online services, such as Twitter, Facebook, and others. Instead of copyrighted characters, you get to have your own avatar based on a fictional manga character! Neat, eh? ^_^
