    Your viewing journal

    I've just sat through all of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood on Netflix. Didn't see the first series, so coming in with a fresh pair of eyes. Goddamn that's a good show. Really enjoyed it, great set of character - nice quick pace to everything. Would heartily recommend.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Metal Gear Solid V arrived. It isn't even out until next week. Hell, Gears of War is out tomorrow and that still isn't here despite shipping days ago. The world is chaos.

    What manga are you reading now?

    I've just finished reading the first volume of Akira. Jesus Christ. I remember reading Domu in my school library when I was about 12 years old, and being blown away by the level of detail and the story. So I definitely knew, going into Akira, that Otomo was pretty damn good. But goddamn, that...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Zavvi is listing the Mobile Suit Gundam boxsets at 37.99 and 38.99 respectively - so they're already nearly 20 quid cheaper than Amazon. So, that's some better news!

    What Games Are You Playing?

    I'm working my way through Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes again, as it was on games with gold for Xbox one. Looking forward to the Phantom Pain, but I must admit I suck at stealth. Give me a rocket launcher!

    The General Conversation Area

    Good luck, IncidenaryLemon! Also, Lutga, I know how it feels. I've been out of work for two years, and I've only had a couple of interviews in that time. It's completely disheartening, but I do hope you find something soon!

    Manga entertainment early 90's

    Aye, I had to import Cyber City on dvd years back, which is how I saw it for the first time. I really enjoyed it - not a surprise, due to it being a Yoshiaki Kawajiri work. That guy just has a beautiful style... Anyone remember Madox-01? Just a short and cheerful OVA, but it was one of the...

    Manga entertainment early 90's

    First of all, glad to see fifteening getting a mention - as much as we've become more sophisticated, I can't help but love the old Cyber City Oedo 808 dub and all the lovely terms used for the robot. And I suggest a group watch of Psychic Wars, if only for a group drinking game - do a shot...

    Roddy Piper passed away. The guy was a true legend of wrasslin' - without Piper, there would be no Hulk Hogan or Wrestlemania. A couple of months after losing Dusty Rhodes... sad times for wrestling fans. :(

    Do you blind buy Anime?

    When I was a youngster. I was more prone to blind buying - and paid the price for it. Note to everyone, ever: Psychic Wars is one of the worst things to have ever existed. I nearly ruined a friendship because of it. I did blind buy First Squad more recently, and once again, regretted it...
