» resources
It is important to give credit where it's due and, while this site is pretty much a one-woman show, various resources have been utilised in order to create the product you see now. The following works have either been cited on this web site or have been invaluable in creation of this site.
- The various official Dragonaut websites. These include: Dragonaut.com, Konami Visual's Dragonaut, and ISDA Operation Room.
- Dengeki Online for its various Dragonaut reports and press releases (from which several Asano Mayumi quotes have been obtained). See here and here.
- FUNimation for their licensed release of the series, directed at the English language market. Not only have these DVDs provided high quality images for this shrine, the sub/dub tracks have been particularly handy as well.
- Infinite-Zero Fansubs are the group responsible for subbing dragonaut in English. As the series is so awful, the fact that I-Z stuck with it is particularly admirable. Thanks for putting up with dragonaut and giving idiots like me a weekly Gonzo fix.
- Flicker, Eva. Between brains and breasts—women scientists in fiction film: on the marginalization and sexualization of scientific competence. Public Understanding of Science. 12.
- Frayling, Christopher. Mad, bad and dangerous? the scientist and the cinema.
- Haynes, Roslynn. From alchemy to artificial intelligence: stereotypes of
the scientist in Western literature. Public Understanding of Science. 12 (2003).
- Huge thanks go out to Meimi, Whitney and Janice for taking the time to translate Asano Mayumi's various comments for me. Your contribution to this shrine has been invaluable — cheers, guys!
- Thanks to Jessica for listening to my Dragonaut-related rambling. Oh you.

» awards won
As noted above, OSMJ was an Amassment ("animanga") Site-of-the-Month for January 2009 (see here). It has additionally received an A-grade review at the now defunct Disco Sambo Reviews. In late 2010 it was awarded two unexpected honours in the peer nominated/voted Fansite Pageant Awards. OSMJ was voted Favourite Fansite For Essays in addition to winning the coveted Favourite Fansite Overall: First Place award. Thanks to everyone who voted for OSMJ, it is amazing to think people actually visit/enjoy a shrine about some random boob scientist from a horrible Gonzo anime.
On top of these honours, OSMJ has also been a feature link on fated.nu's treasure page, a gift shop link at pacific dusk, a favourite shrine at iris-noire, a shrine wall shrine at dragonzord and an awesome shrine at Auldrant. Many thanks to Lore, Airi, Varen, Todd and Ivy for these shout-outs!
