How about a story about the protagonist who prevents ppl from dying and getting isekai'd and it's meant to be a commentary/allegory about the excessiveness of isekai anime lol.
I'd love to see an anime set in a retirement home where ex-heroes and villains live out their days, telling stories no one believes and occasionally getting into hilarious old...
I'd totally forgotten about those. They look like premium rate prefixes too, so they would have cost a fortune. Maybe the main VA from The Gigolo was running a phone sex line...
A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin (1971)
Obsessed with her Bohemian nuisance-neighbour, Julia (Anita Strindberg), wealthy London socialite Carol (Florinda Bolkan) dreams alternately...
So earlier today my mother and I got to see the photos and videos that my daughter and my ex took while on their overseas trip to Ireland last month. They showed us areas of...
The Hunted (1995)

SLA Day 3
Lupin the IIIrd the Movie: The Immortal Bloodline - some odd scheduling meant this, the latest piece of Lupin lore that caps off a story started with four OVAs (more...
I've got back onto GTO again after being sidetracked for a while, I'm still only maybe fifteen or so episodes in but still loving it. It is one of those shows though that when...

In the 90s, Manga Video took a medium that was barely recognised in the west and marketed it as a genre of adult-oriented SF and fantasy. The late 90s and early 00s saw a shift...
Exciting developments, though, for 2026 on the shojo/josei front (I mustn't get too excited but...) with josei manga Ikkoku Nikki by Tomoko Yamashita getting an anime series in...
Shoujo/josei is weird because the former always seems to do really well in the manga market, with strong titles performing very well indeed, yet life as a josei fan has always...
I have an amazing boyfriend now he's so cute and lovely and makes me laugh (we already have hilarious in-jokes!) and feel really really safe and secure, he's giving and...
This is more from a publishing perspective than anime, but I think it perhaps feeds into it all the same. In Japan, while isekai is of course still popular, they've actually...
Genuinely awesome post there, @Rui! I think that might be my favourite anime related AUKN forum post of the year, it's deserving of professional publication! A fascinating...
