    The Q & A Thread (for questions that do not need a thread)

    I've always used the 'GB Eye' frames from Amazon for standard size posters. They seem to be a good mix of price/quality. For weirder sizes I've used frames.co.uk, they've always turned out great.

    Funimation Now Joins Amazon Prime Video Channels

    So this is just a convenience for anyone who happens to already be subbed to both? I don't even understand why you'd want to suffer Prime's interface to get to the Funimation stuff even if you were.

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

    I read the first part of the tweet and thought wow that's great, then read the second part where it's actually just a subscription within my subscription. So went back to not caring.

    Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai - Episode 6

    I'd like it a lot more if I'd not already seen Monogatari in it's entirety.

    You can never spend too much on a micro, they're awesome. Also finding an official leaf green cart is a hell of a task, 90% of eBay is bootlegs, people selling them don't tend to realise. For reference an official one should look like the below: The indented sticker, and the text on the...

    I'm super pleased you gave it a go at least, sorry it wasn't your bag!

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Didn't feel like a moe show to me, but maybe I've been corrupted! Dunno what a recommendation from me is worth, but s'good.

    UK Anime Distributor Anime Limited Discussion Thread

    Nope, I have a number of art books. If anything I find the softbacks a bit easier to flick through. I think the flight case is pretty awesome personally, I'll finally have somewhere appropriate to store my cowboy bebop laser disc set now. What sort of stuff are we expecting in the artbook if...

    Anyone else going to watch the Showcase 'Flashback' release of Cowboy Bebop - The Movie this evening?

    Crunchyroll Details Upcoming Anime Simulcasts

    Hey, Joan of Arc, that sounds interesting. After watching the trailer, nope! Ahh, Kinema Citrus, that might be interesting. 'Naofumi Iwatani, an uncharismatic otaku who spends his days on games and manga, suddenly finds himself summoned to a parallel universe!', nope! Ooh, something with...

    Crunchyroll: HTML5 Coming This September

    I've been using the unofficial HTML5 plugin for a few months now, and it's mostly solved my issues with the player not loading/choppy playback. Hopefully their 'Official' player will be much the same. As for their originals, I really don't mind, they don't seem to be aimed at me, but so long as...

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    I wanted to place an order for Nizo Yamamoto's Laputa and other settings artbook, but at £700 I chickened out and decided I'd rather be able to eat for the next few months instead.

    Is Crunchyroll worth a subscription?

    I've had massive problems with their flash player, support is useless too. I've since been using the firefox plugin for the HTML5 player on their site and the whole viewing experience is a lot better now. For the simulcasts and the backlog (there's not a lot of older stuff here though) £40 a...

    Favourite anime set in WW2 Japan?

    Fix this! Giovanni's Island is worth adding to the poll if you can, though it doesn't stand up to most of the ones you have listed in my opinion, it's still very much worth the watch. Also I'd have voted for Millennium Actress if you'd put it up, even though WW2 is only a part of that film...

    The Q & A Thread (for questions that do not need a thread)

    I'm starting to question the point in streaming, someone change my mind! Crunchyroll is an unusable dumpster fire currently, the desktop player has just ceased to function for me. I'm also subscribed to hidive, but their offering is very weak compared to the US. I can't really justify giving...
