Any kaiju fans get their Gamera limited edition Blu ray boxsets from Arrow yet? Looks like the release date was supposed to be Aug 17 however I've heard some people have been getting theirs early.

Glad I'm not the only one clamouring for those on Blu Ray. Cool. Let's hope a certain someone who browses the forums sees the hunger for em, :)

I tend to recognise actors who played memorable characters but honestly I never actually realised that was Gendo's VA until you said. Having said that it's been a long time since I watched Eva. Interesting! Thanks for pointing that out. As for your question....that's pretty funny. :DHonestly I...

It's been a bit of a weird time since I last posted so I haven't gotten through much but I'm still watching Cosmic Devil Daikengo (Episodes 5-10) and I've also watched some more Gungrave (Episodes 4-8). Won't say much about Daikengo since it's for Retro Mecha Podcast. As for Gungrave I'm still...

Really good episode this one. Some really good points raised and even though I'd spoken to you about your Japan visit directly and you'd told me how you felt upon visiting Hiroshima it was still interesting to hear about how you and Lewis's experience there tied in with how The cockpit captured...

Last week I started to watch Cosmic Devil Daikengo (1978) along with Orgun for the next episode of Retro Mecha Podcast. I've watched the first 4 episodes. Also started a rewatch of Yashuhiro Nightow's Gungrave (2002) Episodes 1-3. I'm enjoying it a lot. If I remember rightly some people hated...

Finished Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! last night (got through Episodes 6-12 over the last week or so) I thoroughly enjoyed it. Might have to check out the manga. I love the way it trails off into Asakusa and Mizusaki's imaginations as they come up with ideas and explore the worlds they've...

I mean I was going to watch it anyway, I guess after enjoying the story of the game I was just nervous that the anime would be quite disposable and wouldn't add much. I'm going to review the game for Retro Mecha Podcast's companion blog once I'm done with it.

HWR Would you recommend the new Sakura wars? I'm hoping it's good as I'm playing the 2019 Sakura Wars game at the moment (my introduction to the series) and I've heard this ties in with it.

Late to the party on this one but I started Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! (Episodes 1-5) this week. Thoroughly enjoying it. I'm finding the enthusiasm of the characters infectious, really makes you want to create something, it's helping me get back into my writing. Also doing a rewatch of...

Not seen B: The Beginning or Bartender but I'm definitely all in for the Eva ultimate set and Planetes. Both really nice surprises! I was kind of expecting the US to get the Evangelion TV first in HD.

Merry Christmas to all.....and to all a good night!!!

Hi everyone! I haven't been very active on ANUK lately. If anyone enjoys my content be sure to visit the site and see a few new articles since I last posted here. In the last few months I've posted reviews of Baoh The Visitor, Project A-ko and Laughing Target as well as an update post (since I...

I agree you'd be much better sticking off with the Dragon Boxes. They look to be much better quality if the trailer Funimation put out for the US version is representative of the final product. More than likely it is since there's been a lot of people contacting them to ask if it is and their...

I guess it'll just make the finished product even more sweet!

Ah yes I do. Didn't realise you were on here. Thanks again. Cheers, yes it's crazy that I've been blogging 2 years now. Doesn't really feel like it but I guess it's cause I don't post stuff as regularly as I'd like. My last 2 articles have had a lot less time between them than recent ones and...

Currently re-reading the rather wonderful Ranma 1/2 by Rumiko Takahashi. Never gets old for me. Such a fun series.

I'm glad. There's so much info on Gundam and general plastic model building online and so many different guides and stuff it can be a bit overwhelming. When I started I struggled to find a concise, easy to follow beginners guide purely about building and not painting. To be honest I still...

I've posted about this elsewhere but in case anyone else finds it useful here's a link. Last year I wrote an article about starting off building robot models including Gundam (among others) for the companion blog for Retro Mecha Podcast. It has a few tips and observations about coming to the...

Haven't shared anything from my blog for a while but here's an article people might be interested in. My own "anime origin story". Had been meaning to write this one for a while and only just got round to it. If you're like me and you find people's tales of how they became an anime fan...
