    Would any of the main TV channels show anime series now?

    Someone asked this at an industry panel at the MCM Expo in London a year or so ago. The answer? No. I think it was even said that they couldn't give the stuff away as no-one wanted to advertise around it which isn't something you want if you're running a commercial channel. Outside of Anime...

    Blu Ray vs DVD: Does it make a big difference to anime?

    I'd say yes if you ignore the majority of Anime produced last decade which was a bit sketchy for Anime in HD. A lot of the cel Anime that's had a proper transfer from film to HD looks fantastic as well as new releases like Redline. You get less banding (those horrible looking colour gradients)...

    Re: Film4 - Studio Ghibli Season 26th March - 13th April 201 *Sigh* Ghibli again Film4? Well, it did get a dub by MGM many years ago, using the same voice actors as Astro Boy, Kimba, Gigantor (Tetsujin 28) and Speed Racer, it just wasn't put on the DVD over here, either for rights reasons or...

    The world of anime on VHS

    As someone who has had the pleasure *cough* of watching Odin, the 2 hour version as well, I'd say avoid, it's next to impossible to not sleep though it. That said, it's a good one to bring up in conversations, so DO IT! :D Hardly ever an issue with me for retail bought VHS tapes, Anime VHS or...

    Original Zenigata voice actor,Goro Naya sadly passes away.

    Re: Original Zenigata voice actor,Goro Naya sadly passes awa He is and always will be Zenigata to me, as much as the others Japanese voice actors do an admirable effort in the role, they just didn't quite get the mix of authority/humour right. RIP I think we'll be getting a bit more out of...

    The General Conversation Area

    Sometimes you just want to play music at times others call inhospitable. They use bad excuses such as "It's 1 in the morning", "I have a job to go to" and "You've woken up my baby", how likely are those excuses? :D Seriously though, I've plugged in my guitar or bass and started playing stuff...

    Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc And this is why I'll stick with my PC for the time being, I bought a PS3 and only have five games for it, might actually get around to buying some of the other PS3 exclusives now. One thing I don't like is that it looks like you won't...

    Neo Magazine Forums Closing

    Indeed, I remember being one of the first ten to sign up to the original forum in November 2004 before that was closed and replaced with the now currently dying one. And now you're stuck with us! :D

    The world of anime on VHS

    Yeah, it was very fractured, Manga got The Castle of Cagliostro, Secret of Mamo and Goodbye Lady Liberty and Western Connection got The Fuma Conspiracy and Legend of the Gold of Babylon. You'd be surprised, we still have VHS cassettes from the 80's (one has a sticker on saying £87 to buy!) and...
