I've been meaning to hook up with last.fm for a while now. Does it link and pick up on all that I have been listening to through my ipod/itunes, can anyone tell me? Not that I really listen to any typical chart/radio music but I'm not convinced my rating will be that obscure - there isn't...

I'm still on my first way into it, and also first read of the manga too. It's not had any major wow-factor on me as yet but I do get the feeling it slowly builds on you the more of it you watch and get into it. Maybe a second viewing will be in order - might catch a bit more of the stream of...

Stem-ginger cookie, cuppa tea, episode of GITS-SAC-1st-Gig.

Been mopping-up and finishing a few series I started about a year ago - Chobits Tenjou Tenge Mid way into ‘mopping-up’ Gunslinger Girl & GITS-1st-Gig. Aside from the cleaning, been getting into Honey & Clover (ep.14 or so)...liking it...just can't decide quite how much yet. Seems...

Watched the second episode the other day - things look to be juicing-up nicely now that the situation and main characters are established. Caught glimpses of the Aaron Sorkin magic with some of the snappy dialogue typical of the Westwing. Have a feeling this series could turn out to be more...

Ghost In The Shell. A recent reshuffle of the city library resulted in me finally finding the fabled ‘Manga Section’ – there must have been 10, maybe even 15 whole volumes filling the shelf! GITS happened to be one of the few so thought I’d be a fool not to borrow it, especially since...

Finishing my Lotte japanese-chocolate-filled-koala-biscuits-things with a cup of tea and wondering what i might watch next - could be some GITS or some Honey&Clover...can't decide...

Sounds like a bit of fun. I wonder if its worth the 400+ miles round-trip under the pretence of visiting my brother in London for an extended weekend? Hmmm....

I have this half-baked theory, based on not a lot of evidence, that the Shounen genre is best enjoyed via Anime where as Shojo is best when read in a Manga. The thinking is along the lines of a typical action/fighting based shounen clearly benefits from the visuals of full animation along...

Watched this a few years ago, probably when it first came out on dvd; really loved the subtle atmosphere of the whole film, enjoying the fact that nothing that earth-shattering actually happens, but there is a certain magic to it. Just found it fascinating watching these two disparate...

The closer is a good tune but its the opener that's the more incessantly catchy. Also, below that fluffy pop tune, if you listen a bit closer there's a right fretboard-workout going on in the bassline. Respect to the Bass player!

Wondering why the Chobits theme tune is stuck in my head. Its been a whole 9 hours since I watched it - why now?

Listening to my trusty internet radio I stumbled across a tune by Aoki Takamasa + Tujiko Noriko - sounded interesting – kind of spacey-electronic-experimental sort of stuff. Noriko is main artist as far as I can make out. As usual the Wiki entry provides some useful bits of info -...

Yeah – it’s refreshing to see him in something other than the endless Friends repeats (was a big fan about 10 years ago, its getting a bit old and tired now) Read a quote from him recently on how he had to tell the directors of this new show: “If you see any Chandler…tell me to stop.â€

This new series is due tonight on More4 at 10pm Anyone else anticipating this? Anyone else even know what it is? Few reasons why I have high hopes for it: Its got two of the more appealing characters/actors from two completely different shows - Matthew Perry (Chandler from Friends) and...

That's tragic news. I've been following the proper manga, so perhaps not so tragic for me really :wink: Perhaps a good thing for a *mature* reader....more *juicey*?? Not doing alot - staring at currency charts pondering on the strength of the dollar... Btw - Hurray for ParaKiss!

After running through the thrills and spills of the Death Note series in the last 2-3 weeks I thought I’d contrast that nicely with the fluff of Chobits. This was one of the first shows that I had a peak at on Youtube nearly a year ago whilst I was still trying to get my head around what...

If I were to sign my real name in your Death Note, would that not be suicide? I forget all the rules, but wouldn’t I then be the new owner, but then I’d be dead shortly afterwards – :shock: :? ...confusing... I thought I saw somebody else with bright red hair wondering around – just...

Hey MG, I was there on the Saturday for a while - think I spotted a likely L & Kira duo I thought might be you and Apple-Bun, couldn't be too sure – perhaps lacked the conviction (or was it courage?) to say hello :? Oh well, not to worry. (I’m never too great with big crowds of people...

Yes, that would have been me. :) Good meeting up, had an interesting chat about various things – still pondering over how we managed to get on to the topic of Hitler and how he should have played the game Risk and known better than to invade Russia. Was my first venture to an expo –...
