I too wouldn't mind giving Blue Gender a long overdue look, I've seen the movie -which is, in my humble opinion, an extremely underrated slice of contemporary horror science fiction and well worth checking out - so it'd be nice to see how the two stack up. I do believe FUNi recently released...

Same here. It is a bit of a shock to the ole system, but a pleasant one at that. There are more than a few good licenses amongst those announced, Saikano in particular, a title that's been picking up a lot of buzz stateside and one I've been particularly looking forward to - kudos to Manga...

Today I received my long awaited Avenger Collection, housed in a nifty metal tin it's quite the handsome set, and the cels included just sweeten the deal. I also got the first volume of Zeta Gundam - I still haven't got round to watching the original trilogy yet, but I'm getting there, slowly...

A large percentage of the anime fans I converse with seem to suffer from insomnia in one form or another , so perhaps that 4.15am time slot proves CH4 know their target audience better than we think. ;) In all seriousness that scheduling does leave alot to be desired, still Metropolis is a...

My tax rebate finally came through today, and what better way to use that hard earned cash than on a well deserved splurge, thus I treated myself to the following: RahXephon Thinpak Azumanga Daioh Thinpak Big 0 II Collection S-cry-ed Collection Jubei Chan Collection Gundam Movie Boxset...

Just begun reading Death Note, a title, I'm happy to say, is as good as the hype suggests. Mixing thought provoking themes of life and death, a central conceit not too far removed from Honk-Kong smash, Infernal Affairs, and a gritty, macabre edge reminiscent of Se7en, it really is a breath of...

Great opener, mite disappointed it didn't shed much light on the preceding feature film, but that's to be expected seeing as this is the first episode in a proposed 50 episode run. Visually it was top notch, the blood splattered intro in particular was a grisly highlight. I also liked the fact...

In the post this morning I received my Devil Lady Collection from Otaku, and my order from Caiman USA that included, Paranoia Agent vol.2, Aquarian Age vol.2, ROD the TV vol.3 and Chrono Crusade vol.4.

Guts gets my vote, he's one of the most compelling anime characters to ever grace the genre, and he's well 'ard ;).

With no thinpaks, boxsets or new series I desperately want released until late October, and with a nice wodge of monies burning a hole in my pocket, I decided to splurge out on The Devil Lady Collection. I've fond memories of the 80's Devilman OVA, and I've wanted to see this entry in the...

I decided to change my avatar to this shot of Naota, as seen in the forthcoming FLCL artbook.

After something of a hiatus I've decided pick up Baiten Kaitos again. So far I'm enjoying it, the battle system feels a little off at first, but once you get to grips with it, it's quite intuitive. The only gripe I have so far is the voice acting, which is terribly wooden and really doesn't suit...

I'dd certainly have to give Black Cat, Hell Girl, Mai-Otome and Blood+ a quick look... maybe Paradise Kiss, even if it is just for the novelty of hearing Franz Ferdinand playing over the ending credits. ;)

I'm quite looking forward to the Casshan OAV, I'm interested to see how this original incarantion compares to the recent feature film. The movie was something of a mixed bag - amazing visuals and action, but the storyline and characters left a lot to be desired. It's certainly worth a rent...

Having heard no shortage of positive things about the latest entry in the SJ series, I decided to pre-order Death Note. The premise is intriguing to say the least, sounds like real high concept stuff, not to mention a bit more twisted than your usual SJ fare.

To celebration its release I've changed my avatar to Jin, from Samurai Champloo.

This morning I received the third and seventh instalments of Madlax and Gantz respectively. Four whole episodes of Gantz on one disc! It's like Christmas ;)

Has to be Spike, after Lupin the III, he's the epitome of anime cool.

As a rule I've never placed too much stock in anime of the Shonen Jump variety, alongside Bleach however, HxH is the exception. It's a sweetly amusing tale, that combines a well worn yet heartfelt tale with some endearing visuals. It's also a series that will prompt pangs of nostalgia from...

I have to admit that due to the delays I've already picked up a fair few of these titles on import. I will however be picking up the next vols of Chrono Crusade and Aquarian Age. Appleseed looks mighty tempting and I'll perhaps snap up the LE when I have the chance. I'd plump for Spriggan from...
