Thanks for this list Dai. All of the Ultra shows I've watched are earlier ones from the 60's to the 90's (haven't watched all of em from this period but have seen a few in each era) I actually got interested in the franchise as a teenager. I used to buy Manga Mania, a monthly magazine in the...

Just found out about a new Vampire Hunter D Kickstarter project today for a comic adapted from one of creator Hideyuki Kikuchi's short stories. The comic is called "Message from Mars" and is based on the short story "Message from Cecile". I'm really looking forward to this comic which...

@Girls with Guns I wish I had the space for a dedicated screening room. It'd be incredible. Seriously cool. I have a question though: Don't the posters get damaged from the snap frames? Or do you put something between them and the part of the frame that opens and closes to avoid that? Looks...

This year I didn't manage very many but I did get through some pretty good ones. 1: Streets of Rage 4 2: Batman Arkham Asylum Remaster 3: Yakuza: Like A Dragon 4: It Takes Two 5: Cotton (Original version) 6: Cotton Reboot 7: Panzer Dragoon Remake 8: Dark souls II: Scholar of the first sin...

I'd agree Blu ray is the way to go (if you can) as it's a beautiful looking series.

I think a large number of users here (me included) would reccommend Escaflowne. It's a really good series and mixes elements of fantasy/sword and sorcery, mecha and shoujo. Personally I love it. It's considered a classic by many and with good reason. The TV series is great and the movie is good...

New article! A primer on the City Hunter franchise (In collaboration with @Orgun and Retro Anime Podcast) - Check out Episode 29 for reviews of the first 3 City Hunter films. Of Magnums and Mokkori: 36 years of CITY HUNTER

@HellCat Please keep us, the poor January crowd up to date for our vicarious enjoyment. :D God damn I can't wait to get my hands on this thing, thanks to recent assurances my excitement is restored (hums Eva score music around the house).

@fabio de lunatico @Dai @NormanicGrav Guess we should hold onto older editions of Urusei Yatsura: Only You for those extra scenes.

Now that Miura-san's death has stopped stinging as much as it did (though it'll never completely stop) I've decided to switch back to a Valkyrie-related profile pic (Kind of suits the account name more after all).

As a fan of Garo I salute you on your efforts to snap up as much as possible, it's such a sad state of affairs that for one brief shining moment we had of the most wonderful Toku shows in decades liscenced only for it to crumble and turn to dust in our hands. I know that sounds over-dramatic but...

Quite glad I didn't get round to buying the last Angel Cop Blu ray now there's a true remaster on the way! The Lupin Part 1 remaster is such a nice surprise and it sounds from Discotek's livestream as if they've blown the Japanese release (which had some serious issues) out of the water...

Welcome! Hope you enjoy your time on the forum.

Glad to see we finally got a response on the Eva Ultimate edition issue. Will keep my pre-order now we've had sufficient reassurance it shouldn't be an issue. It's kind of sad though that the delay in responding has already cost them pre-orders. Now begins the long wait till January (or whenever...

Has anyone picked up any the UK Region B Yu Yu Hakusho release? If so what's the audio/video/subtitle quality like? I love the series but have never actually owned it so I'm looking to get the best version, any difference between the Region A and B Funimation releases? They're probably the same...

Oh yeah, me too. Just a shame it's after these issues rather than notifying us there was a fault ahead of time and trying to temper expectations. Oh well, not long to wait now to see what they say. Let's hope they can make some better revised packaging (I imagine it'll cost too much though)...

Yeah I've got to agree there. As much as I think they've been a great company thus far I can't help but feel a little bitter about the radio silence. If it was a regular set that was about £50-£60 I wouldn't get too worked up about it and just let it slide but I feel like it's a bit of a slap...

@Girls with Guns I'd be interested to know how the disc contents differ from the Anime Ltd/Gkids releases on the HK set if you have the time to compare at some point. I'd assume there would be no dub but does it have any different features? Would also be curious to know if it uses the same subs...

Surely though the UK packaging design will be exactly the same as the german one? Can't see them having higher quality disc holders. I'm a bit concerned that even if my UE is received in good condition that once the discs are removed a few times it'll be damaged which considering its supposed to...

Extremely dissapointed in AL and the fact they didn't even mention the massive concerns many people have over the quality and durability of the Eva Ultimate edition sets in their email sent out this morning. Really, how hard would it have been to at least ACKNOWLEDGE there's an issue and...
