    Question about R1 Basilisk Artbox

    The answer is NO and YES. As you can see, they fit in terms of width, just. But some cases are are fraction too tall and jam. I guess you can always swap your DVD cases around to get a fit.

    The worst revenge ever?

    I don’t mean worst in diabolical terms but in terms of just plain crap. I’ve just read an article about people with stammers on the BBC News website. After the article people have posted some comments and the one I’ve pasted below is absolutely priceless. I’m just trying to picture...

    Best series of the 90's?

    Well, as they say ‘there’s no smoke without fire’.

    Best series of the 90's?

    Suppose so but I find it hard to see the 3rd series as continuation of the ova's on account of it looking so different. Outlaw Star, of course! Amazing series. Maybe that's pushed the Burn Up's into my 4th place.

    Best series of the 90's?

    I suppose it’d have to be Neon Genesis Evangelion for me. The Tenchi ova’s a close second and a very personal choice of the Burn Up’s in third. Didn't the 3rd series come in the 00's?

    Interested by Japan?

    Yeah, it’s a shame that it’s such a dear do to go there. It’s costing me just over £1600 for a ten day visit. That covers return economy flights from Manchester via Heathrow to Narita with BA, three nights in Tokyo at the Hilton, 2 nights in a Ryokan near Hakone, 3 nights in Kyoto at the...

    Interested by Japan?

    So are you interested in Japan in any respect beyond simply watching/reading anime/manga? Obviously, being interested in anime or manga does not mean that you must or should have any interest in Japan whatsoever but I guess it’s quite natural for one thing to lead to another. My interest...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    No one's forced to join in or even read it if they don't want to. If no subjects were ever revisited this would be a very very quite website. It would probably need to be renamed the 'Ever Enduring Forum Games' website. ps I really seem to have 'got one on me' at the moment. I'm sure it'll...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    True Ryo Chan. But older console games are rarely wanted by anyone, so it’s no surprise that they are virtually giving them away. Look at NGE. That’s now 12 years old but (a lot) people still think it’s excellent and many people are prepared to pay £70 to get it in a tin box. I know...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    It wasn’t meant to be logic. It was just a point that not all anime is expensive. I’m quite surprised that you’ve not even heard of Madlax or Kino’s Journey. Especially Kino’s Journey as it is pretty well thought of in the main and has been discussed on here once or twice in the not...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    Wow, it’s nice to see that I’ve triggered a good discussion on here. I’ve been a bit worried about the lack of good anime chat on here recently. When I first posted earlier I wasn’t in a particularly good mood as I was troubled by my football clubs insane dismissal of their manager...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    Reviews and trailers normally suffice for me when it comes to deciding whether to buy a DVD (not just anime ones). You can’t ‘taste’ everything before you buy it. Life doesn’t work like that. And if it does go wrong, flog it on here or e-bay. Plus, the vast majority of anime DVD’s are...

    Fan-subs; the root of all evil?

    So just how damaging are fansubs? I ask this after reading about the situation with Geneon at the moment. A lot of people who have commented on the ANN forum have pointed a finger at the fansubbers and their viewers for contributing to Geneon’s (possible) demise. Whilst I myself have no...

    Geneon in turmoil after deal with ADV Films is canceled

    Sorry Fudce but I'm gonna speculate away. If it does come to Geneon being liquidated, what does that mean for their recent back catalogue and current titles? Would these titles be unavailable to be picked up by any other companies? Mainly I’m worried about Black Lagoon.

    Geneon in turmoil after deal with ADV Films is canceled

    This does seem really bad news. Apart from the personal disappointment of 'Black Lagoon – The Second Barrage' maybe never getting released, will this eventually mean another kick in the balls for MVM? I hope someone is forthcoming with some concrete details of this situation soon.

    Blue Lotus Anime Cafe opening September 15th

    Sorry to hear it wasn’t a success but I too think you’re being a bit harsh by generally lashing out at the users of this forum. I’m sure you did plenty of research but I’ve got to say I’d be surprised if such a venture would survive in Manchester city centre, let alone seven miles...

    Japanese DVD's, English Subtitles?

    Does anyone know if Japanese DVD's have English subtitles? I can't really think why they would but you never know.

    What old anime is everyone currently watching?

    Making my way through Zeta Gundam at the mo. I love seeing all the characters from the original series popping up all over the place. Just now, that sneaky Four has appeared and is charming Kamile in his electro-car! Damn cyber-newtypes!!
