Looks great looking forward to this muchly- and surprised they went with a prequel rather than Atraxia or a continuation/re-telling of FSN/Bladeworks - is that Illya's mother as one of the main charas?

Nichijou 6 Best comedic scene of the season this far - The principal's battle with the deer had me in hysterics, and Yuuko's reactions were priceless - but the consistency is still an issue. Up and down. Like a yo-yo. Hanasku Iroha 6 Said this a few times, but I almost didn't watch...

Nostalgia plays a big part - one of the first region 1 imports I got a hold of was the Outlaw Star collection. And who can argue with the OP? Always end up comparing it with Cowboy Bebop - very different shows plot-wise, but both sci-fi and originally released about the same time. Outlaw star...

...I bought both on PS3 - for exactly the reasons described above - that and the ongoing release of some decent anime on blu ray (might as well stick to the one console for the time being). Honestly had no idea the possible buying of a videogame could spark such a discussion. Been an...

Just to let everyone know - I've picked up copies of Bayonetta and Uncharted 2 - thanks for the recommendations, really appreciate it. To gaming!

Have spent a productive day at the Christchurch food festival - sampling goat cheese, wasabi peanuts and 6 types of beer. Also got rained on in great quantities. But I had sampled 6 different types of beer, so this was OK.

Aria the Scarlett Ammo 4 Wasn't hoping for much but this episode completely blind-sided me. Certainly going to keep watching. No doubt. Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko 4 Really enjoying this series - animation is slick and I'm a massive fan of the voice acting and narrrative. Continues to...

what in the what? Damn - idiot here could have sworn Ergo Proxy and Black Lagoon were both gonners (this is what comes of using amazon availability as a basis for knowing what series are still about)- you will soon see a new post in the 'what anime have you bought today?' thread...black lagoon...

Re-watch of samurai champloo eps 6-10

So, so many...Ergo Proxy, Azumanga Daioh, Black Lagoon etc etc- all victims of anime seller deaths - found some reasonable region 1 box sets but I'm going to wait to see what happens at expo (someone needs to pick up these titles!) - that and I'd love to see a complete genshiken s1/2 and ova box...

@Reaper gI I agree with you, I mentioned her work on Gintama in a later post: It's just that a large proportion of the characters she voices, and the ones I tend to associate with her, are of a kind. When you read a preview and see her as the voice of the main female lead you could...

I tried to like that show, I really did, and watched the first six eps...but yeah, there were many reasons it was not so great - the voice acting for Rose being among them. In the right place it works (thought Toradora's entire cast was pretty good for example, and Taiga espeacially), but it...

wow, wish I had found this out sooner - the flatmate's PS3 is the 160gb slim version, so apparently can't deal with PS2 games.

Welcome to the forum! (Bleach had its moments...)

In terms of japanese television the Gaki no tsukai batsu game series is great (comedy) but I'd agree that more generally its just as bad as here. Having said that, jdramas are not 100% awful and a low budget doesn't necessarily mean low quailty - if you have a decent storyline and good...
