    What manga are you reading now?

    I'm currently catching up with my backlog Hunter x Hunter. In the last week I've gone through volumes 5,6,7 and have just started reading volume 9 [Edit: That should have been vol 8 not vol 9 although I've finished it and am reading volume 9]. However, they got put aside twice while I read Law...

    Toonami closed down by Turner UK; replaced by pre-school TV

    Re: Toonami closed down by Turner UK; replaced by pre-school I wonder if Five are doing themselves any favours with this decision. The pre-school channel arena is already getting pretty crowded. I just checked the "Kids" (hears voice of nephew insisting he isn't a baby goat) band on the Sky...

    Worst voices in Anime...

    None of the voices in the DBZ movies seem to fit the characters to my ears. Not sure what a gay american body builder should sound like but Goku seems to have the same voice as Yami Yugi in Yu-Gi-Oh. I'm usually fairly tolerant of dub voices but this a rare occaision when it has put me off...

    What manga are you reading now?

    I was reading Naruto volume 6 but that was put aside yesterday to read Bleach 18 when it arrived in the post yesterday, and it has been put aside again while I read Case Closed 16 which arrived today.

    Case Closed

    According to Wikipedia there are 57 volumes of the Detective Conan manga and counting. As for the Case Closed, the English translation, Gollanz should be publishing volume 13 on Monday (March 24th) but, if, like me you can't wait, Viz are up to volume 16 which you can get from places like...

    What manga are you reading now?

    Yesterday a train journey gave me the chance to read Bleach 16 and 17, which makes me fully up to date with the English version of the manga.

    WTFDM checks out his banner prize, 'Get Backers'.

    Even with full padding neither, even if put together, come anyway near the long drawn-out battles in DBZ The third disc starts off the 15 episode "IL" arc, the longest in the series, which continues onto the fourth and fifth disc. However, I consider the "Venus de Milo" arc (eps 29-33...

    WTFDM checks out his banner prize, 'Get Backers'.

    By anime standards the battles in GetBackers aren't particularly long. If anything some fights are all build-up an over before they begin or defered until later. (As a general point I wonder if the fights, in any series, just go on without the pointless dialogue how watchable are they?) The...

    WTFDM checks out his banner prize, 'Get Backers'.

    The first two episodes of GetBackers are hardly the best and not very representative as practically none of the rest of the cast have been introduced and the only single episode stories in the first half of the anime. At this point in the series you don't really need any backstory but we do get...

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    Rather to my surprise Naruto Unleashed 1.2 arrived in the post this morning. Actually the real surprise came a couple of days ago when I got the email from Play telling me they had been posted as I didn't expect to see it until well after Christmas. Also, by coincidence, volume 12 of Naruto...
