@Otomo was the original Batman: Ninja any good? I never got round to it. Have been watching Iria: Zeiram The animation. Just finished Episodes 1-3. Haven't seen it for ages and remember it being great, it didn't disappoint upon a rewatch. What a stunning looking and thoroughly entertaining OVA...

Picked up some rare bargains in HMV this afternoon. Got the Dragon Ball Super: Super hero 4k/blu ray steelbook for £12.99 (reduced from £24.99). I guess it pays to be behind on collecting stuff at times. The real surprise though was finding a cool Doraemon T-shirt that was £9.99 (reduced from...

Nice to see you've taken the first steps to sorting your collection. Strangely enough I just got a Kallax delivered today from Ikea. My other shelves are older ones from all kinds of different places. Annoyingly none of them are deep enough for big, tall and wide artbooks or weird blu ray...

The son of a friend of mine has a giant creeper plush from Minecraft and it takes up a good portion of his bedroom. It's absolutely nuts. I think it's scaled on how big one would be in real life.

Glad to help @Spark_Heal

The only info I could really find on it was in a reddit thread where someone said they tried it on a region free player in the dedicated Region B mode and it worked but depends if you want to trust some random reddit user. Considering the amount of physical media content on Youtube there...

@HellCat I thought that's what you meant but just wanted to double check just in case. I've got the Discotek release of Project A-ko but I kinda want the AL one as a big retro anime guy for the artbox and the Jonathan Clements article. It's a lot to pay for an artbox and a 12 page booklet...

@HellCat Wasn't exactly sure what you were getting at in regards to A-ko. Were you saying you picked up AL's release of A-ko to illustrate the point you don't enjoy being negative about AL? Just felt I missed some context. @Dave1988 It's incredibly annoying when 2 separate companies release...

@RedundantSquash That's sad to hear your favourite store is closing. Sadly there's nowhere like that in Newcastle where I live. We have an independent record store but nowhere that's not a large chain for other kinds of physical media like Blu ray or games. I just got back from the Tyneside...

It's incredibly annoying that the UK One Piece sets miss out some of the HD episodes because of that. I wonder why that happened exactly. 6 volumes seems a lot to miss out. That's a lot of episodes! A while back I thought maybe I'd replace the ones I had already bought with the UK sets for...

Yeah I agree with this. It does seem they're biting off more than they can chew. They'd get far more of my money if they'd release more retro shows as well but alas we seem to get only a handful of pre 2000's anime every few years and meanwhile the US has stuff that's not even on disc in Japan...

I don't think the D movie is too bad on this front either. Hideyuki Kikuchi's novels definitely have their fair share of eyebrow raising moments and as you say Wicked City in both the novel and Anime is definitely a lot more off-putting for today's audiences. It's probably a lot to do with...

Minutes after posting that did occur to me. I'd previously liked the post about the lanyard and somehow missed that could have been the reason they were wearing the gloves. Nice that they have a way to feel comfortable at the con while also helping with promotion and having fun. I'm such a...

MCM Expo looked like a lot of fun. Why does the Machu cosplayer promoting Gundam need gloves to complete the costume though? couldn't they just....you know....use their real hands? :) Interesting trivia about the origin of the name of the show. Thanks @zappi

Have never played these two but every other Shin Megami Tensei game I've played has been excellent. I hope we get more re-releases of the older ones like we did with SMT III Nocturne and the upcoming Devil Summoner remasters.

@HellCat and @Scavenger Damn. I was hoping Anime Ltd would change their mind on that after seeing some of the feedback on here and elsewhere. Yeah I knew that typically it's not exactly easy to get in other territories as well but I can't help but be a little disappointed. Guess I might have to...

@Spark_Heal The original novel is available in English via the Vampire Hunter D omnibus Vol 1 from Dark Horse (contains 3 novels. The third one in that collection is the one bloodlust is based on). It seems to still be in print as the omnibus releases are still ongoing and places online still...

Just got Panzer World Galient on blu ray from sentai. A title I'm really pleased to own. Love Ryosuke Takahashi's mecha shows. I have a special attachment to this one because @Orgun and I reviewed it for the 2nd episide of Retro Mecha Podcast. When we reviewed it in 2018 it had only ever been...

Probably a long shot since some of these are very sought after out of print titles but might as well give it a try. I'm after the following region A Blu ray releases. Discotek:- Cat's Eye: complete first season Cat's Eye: complete second season Dancouga: Super Beast Machine God Urusei...

It's fine for me to import Region A as I've got a multi region player. Thanks for the heads up @sniper_samurai and @Magical Senshi I take it the Funimation subs are decent overall then? No glaring issues anyone has noticed?
