    All three of my sets arrived. I have to say these wide boxsets are really making me regret my choice of a segmented bookshelf... (Also the TYBW box is nearly impossible to read until you get right up close to it. I guess hot pink with black writing is fine, the reverse is not...)

    Blimey, checked my emails when I got back from work and saw not one, not two but three dispatch emails with Naruto 1, Bleach 1 and Bleach: TYBW 1. My apologies to the post man!

    Autumn 2024 Anime Season Simulcast Line-up

    Hmmmm.... October 18th is one week AFTER the show debuts in Japan, the US and various other countries. Very annoying not being able to watch a new Dragon Ball property along with everyone else...

    Agreed. Great day to be a Dragon Ball fan (and Dragon Ball is celebrating its 40th just two weeks after I will too!)

    Ninja Scroll: The Series Review

    When anime first became a thing here in English-speaking countries there were three films that everyone, and I mean everyone, watched: Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Ninja Scroll, and while the latter may not have had the far and wide impact the first two had, it was still a big deal within anime...

    I'd happily re-buy Persona 4 just for a case that isn't DVD sized...

    As you might guess by the avatar Bleach is one of the only series I'm instantly willing to sink all that money into, the fact that I really like the visuals of the boxes (both original and TYBW) is the icing on the cake.

    You and me both! Nothing makes me happier than new Dragon Ball content.

    That Bleach box is much more like it, clean and pleasing to the eye instead of the overly-busy Naruto one. Looking forward to finally "retiring" my Bleach DVDs.

    I've plonked down my money on Naruto. Not actually sure if I'll like the big box, the spine looks a little too busy to the point where it's kind of hard to see the logo, but I'll wait until I see it in person. At the end of the day I could just put the four volumes in it and turn it around so...

    I'll be getting the Naruto blu-rays, it's not my favourite but it has its moments. Really hoping Bleach gets the same treatment in the future though, as that IS a favourite of mine!

    I'll probably buy the 4K singles at some point and put them in my original Movies box. It's not like the box has anything on it other than the series logo and some artwork, so that'll be a good work around as I just couldn't justify the 4K box at the moment...

    I knew it was coming, but still... my poor matching Gundam boxset collection :(

    Deep Sea Review

    Deep Sea is a Chinese animated film that tries its best to go after the Studio Ghibli market and story-wise it comes off as a film trying to be Spirited Away or Howl’s Moving Castle but not completely getting it. Visually though the film is quite unlike anything I’ve ever seen before… Continue...

    Oh man... do I want my collection to better match on the shelf or do I want a less compressed picture... A surprisingly hard choice!

    One Piece on UK TV!

    It's funny to think when this was posted we were interested in the first 30-odd episodes airing on UK TV and now twenty (?!) years later the 1100th episode is going to "air" (in a way) in the UK just a short time after its Japanese broadcast. It's a funny example of how technology has changed as...

    The News Thread (for news that does not need a thread)

    Heartbreaking, much like the poster above Dragon Ball has been a big part of my life (admittedly in my case since I was a teenager, but that's still a long time ago...) Given he was only in his late 60s I assumed he'd be around for many years to come, still penning weird and wonderful storylines...

    The News Thread (for news that does not need a thread)

    The dubbing of Dragon Ball here in the UK is an odd story, to be fair. We started with the super-censored Z and the early, heavily inaccurate FUNimation dub, then switched to the Ocean dub (which was pretty much the FUNimation script but with the Canadian voice actors returning from the censored...
