There is one title that I would very much like Manga UK to release, which I am very surprised that they have not released it beforehand, and that is Robot Carnival. It is one of my all time favourite anime titles which shows various robot short stories featuring different character design and...

Interestingly, the UK voice actor Daniel Flynn, who played Benton in Cyber City Oedo 808, Narsus in The Heroic Legend Of Arislan (Part 1-3) and Asura in Angel Cop is also the same actor who played Superindendant John Heaton (the ginger haired guy) in the now canned ITV1 live action TV series The...

Bought this the other day from one of the charity shops at my local town on Manga Video UK VHS for only 99p. This is one VHS title from Manga Video UK that I never got round to seeing when this 1992 45 minute Anime OVA got released in the UK back in 1996. I must admit that I really enjoyed...

Actually, The Guyver old series (1989 - 1992 series) has been released on Region 1 DVD by Manga Entertainment along with Devil Man (Both episodes - The Birth and The Demon Bird on one DVD.), Angel Cop (Episodes 1-6 on one DVD - Fully Uncut.) and Bounty Dog (In a 2 part version on one DVD with...

Some re-releases of Manga UK's back catalogue of titles that were released on VHS back in the 90's to be re-released on DVD or even Blu-Ray at a budget price would be nice. There is alot of decent back catalogue Manga UK titles that were released back then that are very difficult or expensive...

I picked up a couple of episodes of Inspector Gadget on DVD for £2 the other day. I've noticed on the ending credits at the end of each episode that there are alot of Japanese names for the artwork, animation, storyboards etc. Is Inspector Gadget really anime disguised as an american cartoon...

Apparantly, both parts of the movie is going to be 3 hours long and apparantly both parts of the movie is going to have a massive huge budget.

I must admit that I am put off by the person who is going to direct both parts of this movie, who is spanish director Jaume Collet-Serra. This was the same director who made the rather awful american remake of the horror movie House Of Wax starring Paris Hilton who won a rasperry award for the...

I bought a Region 2 Phillips Blu-Ray player back in Jan 2010 from Asda for £70 which I thought was an absolute steal. You need a HDMI Cable to watch your Blu-Rays though which you can buy a HDMI Cable from Asda for £5.

I've always wondered though, as to whether it is actually the real Gaddaffi that has been killed or a body double that has been killed in which the real Gaddaffi has secretly escaped?

I had Roujin-Z on VHS years back when it got released in the UK by Manga Video back in 1994 and it was dubbed in English in the UK by Manga Video. Roujin-Z also very briefly had a theatrical run in the UK back in 1994 in the same english dubbed format by Manga Video before it got released on...

Apparantly, Kaneda and Tetsuo's ages have been moved up to the mid 20's range, hence the reason why Kaneda was offered to Leonard DiCaprio, Michael Fassbender, Garrett Hedlund, Justin Timberlake, Joaquin Phoenix, Chris Pine and even Keanu Reeves (who apparantly turned it down). Whilst Tetsuo...

The thing about the Live-Action version of Akira that is keeping me interested for the moment is that the movie is going to be completely based on all 6 Volumes of the Manga. The film is going to be split into 2 parts, the 1st part based on the Volumes 1-3 of the Manga and the 2nd part based on...

To me, I only liked the 1983 Golgo 13 The Professional anime movie because I really like the character designs and animation in that movie. Also the soundtrack is much much better. The story is alot more straightforward to understand with loads of pretty cool action scenes and interesting...

Does anyone remember reading the Eagle Comics and Battle Comics? I know this may not be officially classed as Manga but the different variety of character designs in the different variety of stories in the two comics are just as interesting and influencial. What was everyone's favourite...
