    General Politics Thread

    America really seems to dislike women's rights & I think there was an element of sexism in the voting. It's a bizarre kind of stupid for them to vote in someone who wants to impose elements they've claimed to be against & even fought against in the past & who's a fawning superfan of despot...

    I don't think I can go over everything but here's some notes I made after viewing it for a short space of time (looking on mobile in vertical & on 1440p desktop) if anybody disagrees feel free to let me know as I'm slightly rusty on the web-dev front: Title wise too much padding round the...

    Kasso - Japanese Skateboarding Show

    This might be a bit niche but if you like skateboarding with a hint of Japanese craziness I recommend checking out Kasso on YouTube. It's made by the folks behind Ninja Warrior & Takeshi's Castle. I was going to post about it when the first 2 episodes came out & completely forgot. For series 2...

    They look good but steel books rarely look that good in reality. I have a fairly large collection from years ago when I had space to display them on the walls but not bought one since unless it was the only option or cheaper. I own all those films & don't see the need to upgrade but I'm all...

    He plays for Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) now. He's mentioned loving anime in quite a few interviews already & is still hitting up the anime celebrations. I'm a fan myself & really glad he's joined the team.

    Maybe not but he'll destroy the world for a bar of chocolate.

    AL really want to show the fans they're nothing to them but wallets. They should stop trying to hire a new community manager & instead hire a political spin doctor because, at this rate, they're going to need someone that can make a 💩 sandwich look like a Belgian chocolate cake!

    You're right I did miss the licensing in my calculation, though I also went high end of the scale for the production. There's also staff & design to take into account but some of that is offset by them selling their designs & operating out of multiple countries. The way I see it is that they're...

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Early on I was a big AL fan, willing to overlook & sometimes even defend the delays & ignore the pricey ultimates largely because they felt like passion projects but now I deeply regret that because it just feels like money grabbing & it's not good for the future of anime in the countries they...

    I've been waiting for AL's ultimate release of Macross Plus for years but I'm struggling to break down the value. If the film/ova disks will be about £35 for the standard (still pretty pricey) that means the rest of the package is an eye watering £115 for a few postcards (£5), a poster (£3)...

    I got the regular subscriber code. 10% off for orders over £50 (probably doesn't apply to bogof as usual) The code is: SPRINGSALESPARE

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    If I remember rightly Psycho Pass has the super lazy chapter markings manga used on a lot of releases (every few minutes rather than at natural breaks like after the opening music).

    I'm tempted to back Macross 2 but I'm wondering what's the point if you can't get the original series?

    If that were still the case, as it was during the early inception of Netflix, they wouldn't exist; giants like Amazon pleading poverty is just a joke. The reality is the constant growth that shareholders expect just isn't fast enough but I have zero sympathy for any company that goes public as...

    UK Anime Christmas Sales for 2023 [Anime Ltd's 12 Days of Xmas + More]

    The only downside is that international customers seeking free delivery can't really do that.

    Does anyone else have issues with AL's website? On mobile I can easily scale it by accident when trying to navigate the site & on mobile the basket/cart goes off the page horizontally & appears to be using tables for the cart layout ^_^;. On desktop I find that with any script blocking in...

    Is there much chance of macross plus being one of the early bird sale items? I'm kinda holding out on purchasing anything else to see if it comes up, as what I get depends on the price of it & I'd love to replace my Italian blu-ray copy; though it does depend on whether I think it's worth the...

    Evri are utter sh*te. Lately they have lost everything for me including Xmas gifts, they always claim delay but there's never any update or delivery attempt. @Denny Fisher A trick if you want to actually get through to a real person from that scummy company: Go on that stupid chat bot of...
