I quite like the opening music. I think some anime fans see Yoko Kanno as the best thing since sliced bread, and refuse to consider that other artists or styles of music could be enjoyable. Changing the music will help give Arise its own mood and identity from the rest of the franchise. I am...

I don't mind Flashbacks when they show a dramatic bit of back story that we haven't actually seen before. The one that immediately springs to mind here is Cowboy Bebop that tells a lot of the vicious/Julia/Spike back story as a flashback. I don't like extended flashbacks to things that only...

It's been a while since Manga announced something I actually wanted :D Lupin and Last Exile are a thumbs up from me :thumb:

Planetes ( 1 -26) I really enjoyed this, its nice to see a) a proper sci-fi series, and b) a show about adults. Madoka ( 1-3) Madoka on Blue-ray = £24.99 Blue-ray player £70.00 My boyfriends face when at end of episode 3 = Priceless.

I got a lovely Fossil Handbag from my Mum. Its so lovely I'm scared to take it to work so I will now need to buy another bag for everyday use, and keep that one for best. I got a brand new Ipod from the Boyfriend to replace my old broken one. I also have more new socks, pants, scarfs and...

Re: Anime Limited Announce First Release: Cowboy Bebop DVD & I just squeeed so loud that the cat jumped off me in surprise. :D Where do I sign up for the Blu-ray?

Is there a stigma in Japanese society towards illness and death? I have noticed that when anime/manga creators become ill or pass away the details are often very vague about what happened. Sometimes a Manga will go on hiatus because the creator has been 'hospitalized' and may stay on hiatus...

I think its only natural to get burnt out after a few years. Every so often I will just run out of stuff that interests me and I stop for a while. I think its good to mix up what you are watching and look at other genres or mediums, no matter if its games, anime, western animation or live...

Nana episode 21 -25

Since I last posted I have watched Nana 1- 15. I am really getting sucked in by the characters, its nice to see romance and drama with slightly older people who have lives and ambitions beyond high school. Planetes1- 4 I have been enjoying this so far, I want to watch some more asap, but i...

In my house the TV license is known as the 'Doctor Who' tax. :P I don't really like paying it, but its nice to be able some channels that don't show an advert break every few minutes. Also you don't get the same sort of fantastic wildlife documentaries on ITV/4/5.

I'm not to fussed on Geass, not happy with how the 2nd series played out compared to the first. I am super excited about Penguindrum. I was worried it would end up being forever unlicensed you to how odd it is. I wonder if it will be dubbed or sub only?

Last week I finished the last few episodes of Brother, Dear Brother. I have really enjoyed watching this show. I have been hearing how great it was for years, but I have never had thechance until recently. There is only one bit I was not to happy with which was the way [spoiler] Saint...

Princess Tutu 18 -End Brother, Dear Brother - 21 -28. I cant get enough of this show. I've not seen such complex female characters in anime for a long time.

Brother, Dear Brother... Episode 8 - 21 I am loving this show so much, its such a shame that its never been properly available. I am streaming it through Viki and am worried that soon I will catch up and have to wait a while between episodes :( The characters are so much more complex...
