I was googling when I came across this post that I believe perfectly encapsulates a horrifying mentality among many anime fans. The post is a few years old, but it is essentially someone ranting about why they shouldn't have to pay for anime for nitpicky reasons (i.e. crappy excuses). But what...

To be honest, the faster every unique show in their catalogue gets a home release, the sooner we can pretend Animax doesn't exist. That can only be a good thing.

Just saw A Silent Voice, and Kyoto Ani have freaking outdone themselves! Such a good movie, and I'm really glad it got cinema screenings, because it's definitely something that deserves the big screen. I actually came out and immediately wanted to watch it again. I just hope that the home...

It's really funny to me that things like a single frame of animation get cut by the BBFC, but say...the entire Karen toothbrush scene in Nisemonogatari, and the Shinobu bath scene in Nisemonogatari went completely uncut. When MVM announced the release of Nisemonogatari a few years ago I was...

Those poor defenceless animu, they never stood a chance. I don't understand why Netflix has one Persona 3 movie, but it's the second one. It would surely make more sense to only have the first one rather than have watchers jump right in the middle of something with no clue what's going on (if...

Oh yes, the Persona 3 movies, I forgot about those. I suppose since the trend has always been that anime streaming services in the UK that aren't Netflix never get movies, I overlooked movies as a factor (I know Funimation has a lot now, but historically speaking). Still, if I really wanna see...

I suppose it is lucky that the vast majority of the shows on their service are also on one of the much better services too. The only things they have that no other services have are a couple of older anime like Samurai Champloo and Trigun, but frankly I've had hard copies of those for so long...

Yes come to think of it I have noticed Anime Limited stuff cropping up on there occasionally. Of course it is usually rendered moot because it goes up on Viewster as well, so it makes their premium service angle all the more baffling when the same content is being injected into a free service...

The thing is though, if they were targeting specifically PS4/PS3 owners, you would think they would make an app that was halfway usable. Considering that Crunchyroll is on both of those platforms, and Funimation are in the process of bringing their app over to the UK, I can't see who these...

I am genuinely curious. They've been around a number of years now, but they have the worst selection, the worst site, and the worst customer service of any anime streaming provider in the UK. The amount of anime they have is pitiful for a premium service, especially when you consider how many of...

I've noticed that with most non-sentai releases the subs are locked in theory (in that you can't select to watch it raw from the main menu), but if you start it with subs enabled you can usually turn them off in the subtitle menu. I haven't noticed as many which outright lock it even in the...

For Funimation you can access the PS4/PS3 apps with all of their UK licensed shows by signing in to a US PSN account and downloading it. Once it's downloaded you can just use your regular PSN account to view it (much the same as using the Crunchyroll app before they finally gave it a UK...

If we're listing things that have hard coded subs, then 'The Comic Artist and His Assistants' (Blu-ray) also has them. It's another Animatsu one authored by Sentai. Is hard coding the subs a trend within Sentai releases, or just ones that don't have an English dub like this one?

Thank you for this useful information!

I just really didn't like that the idea of the powers and their implications were rarely touched upon. Half of the series was just typical slice of life high school fare (albeit with a huge chuuni), and I felt like the powers weren't really important to the plot except in the one or two episodes...

Studio Shaft with Akiyuki Shinbo at the helm, make a psychological horror. I know they've done things with dark themes before like Monogatari series and Madoka, but I want a full tilt psychological horror film (complete with lots of existential dread) done in Shinbo's style.
