Couldn't find a better place for this (if any of the mods can please let me know). I put it here for the fact that Alita: Battle Angel seems based of the anime Trailer #1 The anime wasn't bad. In truth it is very watchable, but having read the manga it is sorely lacking in depth and a lot of...

I agree with Rui's initial response. Anime still isn't mainstream. Until it is fully taken in as part of the social norm it will forever be niche. It may be more accepted than it was, but you say anime to anyone and you'll get either a cheer or snorting derision. Football is mainstream as it is...

S Sounds like an instruction manual to me. Don't see the 'kids' reading it :p :D Isn't there an encyclopedia on this site?

I can't say I've knowingly got people into anime although I've learned there are more 'closet' fans out there than more open fans. It seems that people, by and large, get into anime and things in general as a matter of curiosity. I've actually come across about 5 or 6 'fans' (either open fans or...

Not really. Regardless of were the Slum King episode was put in (which would still have to come after the middle episode given a reference made in the episode and a character link) it was such a shoddy mess with no development at all, that from the very opening you are left with a hanging...

A Double Feature for you all Violence Jack 1/10 Where do I begin... The OVA from the Manga Collection really isn't worth the money unless you can find a copy for less than a couple of quid and even then it is little more than an exercise in general incompetence. Even if the excuse of time...

Hi Ian. Finally took the time to listen in (really should have listened in sooner. I tend to get into too many things at once so tend to miss things unfortunately). Really enjoyed your first pod cast and will listen in on the next few in the days to come. I'm really just dropping a response to...

Ditto. It is a classic of nearly all comics and cartoons. Any anime that follows the zany and slapstick comedy approach will likely have what your looking for. Excel Saga does and assuming your old enough Dead Leaves might (iirc) have as well.

Sounds painful. Hate to think you'd end up like some supervillain to rival Jim Carrey's Riddler :p :)

I second this. Add a year off work and plenty of caffine :p :)

Well Done. Please save us a piece :)

Thank you :) To make a start I'll drop some minimums for now Studio I.G 1 Gainax 1 Yoemex 1 Sunrise 1 Gonzo 1 Madhouse 1 Clamp 1 ...TBC...

Give me a week...[taking forever]... Seriously though does anyone know if My Anime List does a breakdown of Studios/Distributers and Staff? I really want to give and answer but 300+ titles kinda hurts. All help appreciated. :)

Pretty much this. If you need a cop out key ghibli characters like Totaro or Nausicaa would be acceptable, but they've been done to death. A ballsy option without prior knowledge would be one of these two Summer Wars Girl Who Leapt Through Time Please let us know what you decide and...

found a little trove of anime today. Was put onto a collecters store and went to see what they have. Picked up V iolence Jack (manga collection) for £2.50 and Golgo 13 Queen Bee for £4.00. Not epic titles but for the money, pretty good bargins.

If you'd asked this questionn about 12 years ago (Jesus I'm getting old) I'd give an answer akin to what you've heard, but now a day detoxes me and I move onto other things in general (my anime viewing has curtailed with more important issues and general life experiences so I haven't got to the...

United Publications for singular and small purchases (no added costs), but for orders of around £100 (less than £135) rightstuf will come in handy, but be ready to pay good money on Tax and Excise. Saying that Rightstuf has a larger range so you may have no choice. Also a good place for older...

No you may not Resurrect threads. Let them rest in peace :( :D Seriously though feel free. I agree that top tens are difficult to stick to, so I'll take your lead and give a current list in order of signifigance. 1 Cowboy Bebop 2 Akira 3 Bubblegum Crisis 4 Dragon Ball (Z) 5 Ghost...

What are your numbers out of curiousity? Do you have a list on My Anime List?

Venus Wars was a let down. Jumpy story and a character with screechy vocals (and a faux southern belle accent). I actually like Landlock (can't explain it).
