    The Gundam Thread

    Was coming to post that translated trailer, after it popped up in my feed. I know nothing of what's to come bar being spoiled on the very end - watching Hathaway blind, with only Gundamu Origins (manga) for context - but as far as "Neuroticism" goes, Gigi like many-a-woman can see plunging his...

    The News Thread (for news that does not need a thread)

    I enjoyed Yona too! 'Tis rare for males/beefcafes to appreciate shoujo. It just so happened I really liked the author's other work, 'NG Life'. Gave it a go, and the squirrel/pukkyu! sounding like something else excited me greatly. That and Twelve Kingdoms composer OST. Wonderful news it's...

    Ah, a man of culture. I did chuckle once the reference clicked. Personally though, I would go with this reference instead: Just for the record: I confess to being soulless - I am after all an atheist - and 'tis human nature to be hypocritical; turning a blind eye to one's inherent...

    Mr Wolf's Rain, many of us have been through this cycle before, many times. And that was when the company wasn't quite so corporate/soulless. It's like a long term relationship: one grows weary of of the other over time, and more resentful as lessons are not learned. Without AL, I'd be able to...

    Mine was sent RM48. Going on your Devilman woes and proximity final post, it might take awhile yet~ I take it Devil did arrive? My friend still waiting for his copy to be sent, although that's stuck in xmas backlog vs preorder lottery.

    Wasn't trying to steal Hanners ⚡/NTR: seems unlikely they'll restock in time given logistics, and wanted you to get a copy if a rush. I'll leave you sort it out with him. I wish you good fortune in the battlesto come~ AoL stock depleted since posted link, anyway. Had I not looked at AUKN, I'd...

    Nein, and I got in swiftly; first day. Didn't see any of the 4 Bleach vols go out of stock during the sale, either. My ETA remains Feb 2026/7 atm. Will post if they ship as likely means go time for most others. Question: did AL not switch to a third-party middleman to handle shipping, rather...

    Crunchyroll Announce Winter 2026 Anime Season

    Frieren and Fern are all I, and any man/possibly woman needs. That is, if into autistic 2D waifus, and high budget actual medieval fantasy. Sod off, isekai Fate might be worth a gander if the presentation matches the trailer-teaser thing from ages ago. But I will not so easily be swayed away...

    Approximately 96.69% of AL's stock was thieved by the villainous Amazon and their co-conspirators. Last update was they'd try reacquire said stock. It's still sold out. We're one-ish week out from last post. Since iirc it wasn't inc in early bird redux, you're prob better off...

    You'd need a bigger 🪣 if I started emailing you~ Where is everyone at with their orders? I know Cid had Devilman AWOL, with Cyber yet to ship. And Titan had a combined order for PB/Cyber in stasis. But I'm curious if any movement has been had for Christmas orders. As of yet, my day1/2 orders...

    What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

    Nein, and worse yet t'would appear part 2 is only getting a standard edition, ie vanilla plastic case + a slipcover. 'Tis a very nice release somewhat ruined by CR's bizarre design choice, as it stands. The only solution seemingly is DIY: buy a new case that holds 4 discs, and discard pt2...

    Rate the last anime you watched out of 10

    Going from the last few pages of Dai and Vash bravely battling to keep the thread alive... to ShoBitch 2-3/10. Maybe the less said about it, the better? When I saw 'ShoBitchu', I knew anime was surely dead. The final nail in the coffin if THAT is deemed worthy of being released outside Japan. No...

    UK Anime Distributor Crunchyroll/Funimation/Manga UK Discussion Thread

    Unless you mean the US branch, why not just order from AOL/MVM? Bar the unfortunate abbreviation to chatting of yesteryear (I have always been baffled why MVM's store is not... MVM), they stock CR items at excellent prices, and you can be assured of prompt delivery/professional packaging. The...

    Today, to my astonishment, a Royal Mail van approached - on Sunday, of all days - as I was setting off with my (un)loyal hound (that tried to attack the driver)... and a most sweet yet spicy surprise was given, for none other than Howo the Wisewolf was handed to me! 'Tis truly a pity the set...

    I feel very strongly this email - sent after my PayPal order was cockblocked by AL, no less - was a taunt that should read 'Did WE(e) forget something?'... like every xmas order that isn't a pre-order. Funnily enough, I had that same Royal Mail email ??? conundrum: my Cyberpunk delivery was...

    Snippy, I do not doubt that cost cutting and efficiency were the true reasons behind universal books of steel. When has artistic merit ever won out over cost cutting, after all? It would however have been nice had there truly been an unspoken rule between countries, to preserve steelbooks, but...

    'Tis said a picture is worth a thousand words. HOWEVER, a picture (with words inc) + perhaps less than 1000 words is more alluring to me, personally~ Added Seraph + Scummy Wishes/Princess after my PayPal checkout attempt(s) borked. Seraph like Arslan AL stock overload but £9.99 worth a retry...

    Since this thread/the OP has gone a tad dead, I thought I'd link to an active thread on another forum that is updated: Japanese Anime Releases with English Subs/Dubs There's some new 4k transfers coming out next year for Jin-Roh/Memories. Last update of relevance to me was Vampire Hunter D...

    That Spice & Wolfy release looks lovely. Just a pity it's not a box befitting Howo the Wisewolf as it is not big enough for pt2. 'Tis vexing... Cyberpunk finally arrived. Much too yellow for my tastes, until can get rid the slipcover. Alas, not sure if putting up for xmas, so sealed it remains...
