    Bookshelf OCD

    I can understand that they had no idea they were going to release obscure, mid-nineties stuff like Ocean Waves which would have been reflected in the numbering if absent, but if they felt they absolutely had to have numbers, there were themes or directors they could at least have attempted to...

    Bookshelf OCD

    This kind of thing bugs me, but I actually get over it quite easy. I have the old Buena Vista Ghibli releases mixed in with the Optimum ones (though since the numbers on the spines don't make an ounce of sense anyway...). My mid-teen Fruits Basket volumes have been nuclear-burned to near...

    Studio Ghibli possibly closing?

    With less banning of filth, obviously.

    Studio Ghibli possibly closing?

    Closure isn't really what they're saying will happen though. They're just being realistic about the kind of contingencies that need to be created for a film studio whose core output is dependent on several retirement-age film makers. Mind you, if Ghibli didn't have Miyazaki, would it really...

    video game

    Then anything Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil spring to mind, but FF games tend to be a little too long for that purpose. Though you did ask for good stories. And you've already played two of the few games that phrase can even remotely be applied to. Maybe Mass Effect...

    Gundam Unicorn UK Release?

    £2 a minute. The whole thing has been a utter farce really. And I feel sorry for anyone buying this volume or the next. This level of ridiculous decision making requires a special level of executive power. The kind that pulls the plug due to "disappointing performance" two fifths of the way...

    Satoshi Kon has passed away

    I made a slightly illogical, academic observation on another forum, but I think it gets bluntly to the reason why this is horrible. If animation lost Miyazaki at 46, he would have been in production of My Neighbour Totoro. No Kiki, Porco, Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl, Ponyo... I can't help but...

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Playing a mix of Ikaruga (yes, still. No I can't one credit clear the game on Easy yet) and Seiken Densetsu 3 whilst waiting for Starcraft to appear in the post (the first one. Back in 1998, the demo seemed fun, but like every other RTS game on the market. Funny that.)

    anime questions

    Almost odd to see people come out in full support of Escaflowne. Always struck me as a series that everyone liked, but no-one specifically loved. Still, not enough Mecha / Fantasy hybrids (there's what... Aura Battler Dunbine?)

    Beckii: Schoolgirl Superstar at 14

    My entire exposure to Idol culture is basically Perfect Blue, so I can't say I expect this to end well.

    Nausicaä coming to Blu-ray in October!

    Movie Nausicaa is ok... I'll need to see a Blu-Ray / DVD combo though.

    What the hell happened to you, Youtube (Rant)

    Maybe you're getting older, not Youtube getting more immature? Because Youtube has always been full of ****, and the kinds of creatures that snack on it.

    YOU DONE GOOFD

    This got to Good Morning America already, didn't it? As funny as hearing a distressed father saying 'The consequences will never be the same!' is, the whole thing is pretty ******* stupid because at 11 Years old, she's actually got an excuse for being the vapid prick that everyone else on...

    The All Purpose Mobile Suit Gundam Thread

    There's a whole load of Gundam I think most fans would buy on Anime Legends. Turn-A is a definite yes for me. A Gundam thread on anime website being the least biased cross-section.

    XBLA: LIMBO

    Been a little buzz around this on the more pretentious games sites. When it follows Braid to PC, I may get back to you.
