    The Grand Final

    I must vote for Yomiko, much as I like Spike he just can't measure up to the 1337 Paper Master (and Ichigo is no competition :P).

    What manga are you reading now?

    Technically it's not manga, but today I've been reading Van Von Hunter vol 1 (from the winners of the first Rising Stars... competition. It's just the kind of thing that appeals to my sense of humour, so I've also been catching up on the online webcomic version.

    Review: Outlaw Star

    Depends what you mean by cheap; Otaku have it for about £33 which imo is good value for 26 episodes (with free delivery, and they're based in this country so no customs), I doubt you'll find a legit copy much cheaper than that. Rewatching the series has actually left me wanting to check out...

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    My Tsubasa Chronicle OSTs arrived today...the "Japan mini" that came with them was a bit disappointing though, I thought it would be an anime-related gashapon but it just looks like a Kinder egg toy. Also went to the local bookshop and got Lament of the Lamb vol 1 and Van Von Hunter vol 1.

    Jak And Daxter or Ratchet And Clank

    Racthet and Clank was number one for me from the first time I played it, and the next two games only improved on it- I love the arrays of weapons and gadgets, even on the tougher sections it remains fun. The Jak series on the other hand was a bit hit and miss for me, Jak 2 was too frustratingly...

    ~The avatar thread~

    In light of my latest 'obsession', I've changed my avatar to Layla Ashley from Avenger.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Having temporarily got fed up with all of my unfinished RPGs, over the past few days I've been replaying Ratchet and Clank (on a gold weapons save). I've just finished that, so now it's time to try R&C2 in Challenge Mode and upgrade all the weapons I didn't bother with first time around.

    Semi Finals - Battle Three: Ichigo vs Guts

    Even though I haven't seen Berserk yet (I'll order it once the evil moneymaking schemes come to fruition) and so only know Guts 'by reputation', I still feel he's worthy of my vote this time around.

    Press: Manga UK in 2006

    As I said the other day, I'm quite interested in Heat Guy J, and on closer inspection I think I'll give Karas a go too. As for 2nd GIG, I'll probably rent the singles as they come out and wait for the hopefully inevitable boxset.

    Opinions on these series please...

    Haibane Renmei is an excellent series from start to finish; I really can't recommend it enough (but there's no point me typing a long spiel seeing as you can just check the positive reviews on this site). Madlax has been a bit hit and miss for me so far, there are points where I've felt...

    November's UK anime DVD releases

    The thing is, Bebop is only a six disc release, so a seventh disc shouldn't exist (unless it's a previously unannounced bonus disc with extras on it or something). As far as I knew, Collection 1 is discs 1-3, and Collection 2 is 4-6. Of this month's releases, the main one I'm interested in...

    Anime UK News Halloween specials

    The banner and wallpapers are excellent; I was just getting bored with my old desktop so I've changed it to Pumpkinseed (maybe I'll put Neo Plasma on my mum's computer for the best of both worlds ;) ) Given that the Cyber City R1 DVD (the 'Final Collection' release) can be got for about a...

    Admittedly there are still a handful of October releases to come tomorrow, but with November so close it's time to cast your votes on your most anticipated release of the new month (including, as always, a few titles delayed from last month). Ironically, despite topping last month's poll, the...

    News from London Expo

    I can't say I'm the biggest fan of the FMA dub myself, but I'll probably watch it anyway once it gets to the episodes I haven't seen. Of the other things announced, I'm interested in Saikano and also Heat Guy J, although admittedly the latter is mainly because I hear Yuki Kajiura did the music ;)

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    I just ordered the two Tsubasa Chronicle OSTs (unfortunately the Limited Editions have just gone out of print, so no notebook and pen for me)- initially hadn't planned to buy them both but I wanted to take advantage of yesasia's free delivery.

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    My Aquarian Age thinpack and Avenger collection arrived today. The Avenger set is different to say the least, the DVD holders are in the lid and bottom of the tin they come in, with a piece of foam stuff separating them. Still, it also comes with four mini-cells and the tin itself looks good.
