I Would definitely be up for some group buys.

I got back from seeing Gundam Doan's island about an hour ago and I had a similar experience to @Loris There were 5 people total including my wife and I! My wife hadn't seen much Gundam either (just parts of it when I'd been watching it) and she really enjoyed it as well and said similar...

Just got back from the cinema where I saw Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Though my partner regularly watches anime with me she hasn't watched any Gundam previously (well she's seen the odd scene when I've been watching it) and she really liked it too. In my...

Hey everyone, haven't found much time to post lately. Just popping my head in to say...someone mentioned Machine Robo possibly going out of print and I'm sure Discotek mentioned that on Twitter as one of their soon to be discontinued titles so I'd definitely get on that. This whole situation...

Hey Grav. A question regarding Future Boy Conan (If you've been able to watch any of it yet) do you reckon the 4K restoration is worth the price tag? Also curious if you own the Gkids Blu ray for comparison. There's probably a few people like me who are wondering whether to spring for the 4K or...

I've used UP1 and toys and films on ebay before and have found them both to be very reliable. Hello again by the way everyone, reports of my death have obviously been greatly exaggerated. Just been very busy. Was floored that Phantom flying ship is getting a release from Discotek, really fun...

Thanks for this list Dai. All of the Ultra shows I've watched are earlier ones from the 60's to the 90's (haven't watched all of em from this period but have seen a few in each era) I actually got interested in the franchise as a teenager. I used to buy Manga Mania, a monthly magazine in the...

Just found out about a new Vampire Hunter D Kickstarter project today for a comic adapted from one of creator Hideyuki Kikuchi's short stories. The comic is called "Message from Mars" and is based on the short story "Message from Cecile". I'm really looking forward to this comic which...

@Girls with Guns I wish I had the space for a dedicated screening room. It'd be incredible. Seriously cool. I have a question though: Don't the posters get damaged from the snap frames? Or do you put something between them and the part of the frame that opens and closes to avoid that? Looks...

This year I didn't manage very many but I did get through some pretty good ones. 1: Streets of Rage 4 2: Batman Arkham Asylum Remaster 3: Yakuza: Like A Dragon 4: It Takes Two 5: Cotton (Original version) 6: Cotton Reboot 7: Panzer Dragoon Remake 8: Dark souls II: Scholar of the first sin...

I'd agree Blu ray is the way to go (if you can) as it's a beautiful looking series.

I think a large number of users here (me included) would reccommend Escaflowne. It's a really good series and mixes elements of fantasy/sword and sorcery, mecha and shoujo. Personally I love it. It's considered a classic by many and with good reason. The TV series is great and the movie is good...

@HellCat Please keep us, the poor January crowd up to date for our vicarious enjoyment. :D God damn I can't wait to get my hands on this thing, thanks to recent assurances my excitement is restored (hums Eva score music around the house).

@fabio de lunatico @Dai @NormanicGrav Guess we should hold onto older editions of Urusei Yatsura: Only You for those extra scenes.
