    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    I decided to secure a pre-order for the Nintendo Switch 2. What we know the machine is capable of so far makes it worth it for me, I was pleasantly surprised with the fact it supports 4K resolution when docked, and also has HDR and VRR capabilities, as well as support for 120hz in handheld mode...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    That's rather annoying. I feel like we've gone back in time in regards to attitudes toward censorship - at least in this instance it's "only" a couple of subtitles/audio being changed, rather than whole scenes being removed or altered; it's still not great though. If it is the author/artist's...

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    Yeah, the Log Horizon releases are pretty steep at £40-£45 per season for a standard release. If you're okay with used - CEX has both S2 parts for a combined cost of £7+£5.9 postage. MVM's season 1 is a little harder to find on the second hand market, granted. It's still great to see them...

    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    Certainly an interesting picture to choose to advertise a series/release. I can't imagine many children have liked a page for a small, British anime distributor on Facebook, and if they have, they've likely seen worse than a still-image of 'cartoon' blood and a decapitated head. But perhaps I...

    A Zavvi exclusive: The First Slam Dunk 4K+BD Steelbook. It survived Zavvi and the postal service, thankfully!

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    The issue for me is that most of Anime Limited's collector editions seem to be very "copy and paste" these days (i.e., chipboard box, amaray case, art cards + poster/booklet). I understand that what they can put out is largely directed by the licensor, but some of AL's older releases look much...

    Yeah, it was published a good while ago - I just had no idea it even existed until recently 🤣

    From SciFier: The Art of Makoto Shinkai: a sky longing for memories. This is a really nice book that not only displays some of Shinkai's gorgeous artwork, but also goes into a bit of detail on how Shinkai creates his art (largely his landscapes and cityscapes) and also includes some interviews...
