    Starting back to work after being off for two months never ceases to wear me out (and kills my forum stalking energy reserves). @_@

    Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad Review

    Welp, after reading this review and being jabbed to give Beck a watch I gave episodes 1 through 5 a go. Sadly I was amazed by how much I agreed with this review. The Beck anime is just surprisingly slow, and it feels like very little of consequence has actually been happening. For the most part...

    Pokemon OT: For all your Pokemon needs

    The latest Japanese Sun & Moon trailer is kinda glorious. The hype is so real. I could virtually not read/see another piece of news between now and November and still be crazy excited to play these games.

    Funimation and Crunchyroll Working Together

    This is certainly interesting and, for the most part, positive news. I feel a bit cynical when reading through Funi's very noble-sounding statements about the partnership being for the fans (which likely is true to a degree, just not nearly as much as they boast it to be) but hey, I'm not going...

    Your anime viewing journal

    Holidays are great, but lord does it always leave me with loads to catch up with. Over the past three days I've watched... FLCL - Episodes 1-6 (Complete) This one has been a very long time coming. Years ago, a good 10+ years when I was still attending university, I watched episodes 1 through 3...

    Your anime viewing journal

    I admit, I felt that same way when I first watched Free!. I was expecting a fanservice heavy series with little quality otherwise and was instead surprised by how much I enjoyed the humour and, for the most part, the characters/character dynamics. It's a simple plotline but it serves the tone of...

    Akira returns to UK Cinema for Manga UK’s 25th Anniversary this September

    I say ignore the stigma and go for it if you're interested. ^^ The way I see it, anyone who'd make judgements is worth ignoring anyhow (and the likelihood of someone recognizing you is slim in general). When it's something you're interested in seeing at the cinema then it's always worth it for...

    Pokemon OT: For all your Pokemon needs

    Me too! Which are your favourites thus far? ^^ I'm finding that I really like all three of the new starters, as well as Tapu Koko, Wishiwashi's school form (adore that thing), Grubbin's line, Salandit, Rockruff, Pikipek and Mimikyu. Many of the other brand new Pokemon are quite cool too, mind -...

    Akira returns to UK Cinema for Manga UK’s 25th Anniversary this September

    I'm likely just incredibly blind, but is it known yet if the movie will be aired with Japanese subtitles or with the dubbed version (or both options)? Regardless, that's pretty nifty. Akira played a heavy hand in my introduction to the world of anime so I'm always happy to see it getting some...

    Pokemon OT: For all your Pokemon needs

    This may interest anyone who's been following the Sun & Moon news: Nintendo's gamescom 2016 plans: Pokemon live gameplay, Paper Mario, Splatoon, more - Nintendo Everything I'm curious if we'll see any new features or Pokemon during the stream, but even if it's just more of the same from E3...

    The PlayStation Vita Thread

    While I've never been able to get into the Digimon World series the way that I did with Cyber Sleuth, I'd definitely be excited if Digimon World: Next Order received a localization. Thanks for sharing the image! I honestly had no idea that Vita had so many potential goodies on the horizon... :x

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Pokémon Alpha Sapphire - While I've been slowly plugging away at the game for months, I recently started playing it again on a semi-regular basis and making decent progress. Just hit Fortree City. ^^ Tales of Zesteria (PS4) - While my playthrough has been on hold for a month and a half due to...

    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    I'd been toying with buying the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime series on bluray (from Walmart.ca) for sometime now and finally caved today. Sadly it's not one of the fancy LE or CE sets, just Funimation's Complete Series collection, but it will be nice to finally have it in my collection...

    Rate the last anime you watched out of 10

    Ooo... I tend to be very indecisive when it comes to numeric ratings, but I'll give it a shot. Baccano! + OVA Specials I recently had the opportunity to watch Baccano! on bluray, a series that had long intrigued me after being absorbed by the world of Durarara!!. When I first started into...

    What was your first manga?

    While the very first manga that I read was a random chapter of No Need For Tenchi, the first that I properly cared for and collected was Pokémon Adventures (starting with chapter 1 of the original saga). Back then they weren't releasing the series in bound volumes, instead opting for individual...

    What manga are you reading now?

    Fairy Tail: Chapters 437 - 497 Over the past month or so (since I began summer vacation) I'd been feverishly trying to catch up with Fairy Tail's manga via the CR manga app. Usually it takes me an age just to read one volume of manga, but once I started into chapter 437 there was no looking...

    Will finally stop lurking and say hello!

    Thank you very much for the warm welcomes! It's really appreciated. I'm looking forward to joining in some of the various discussions here, too. :) @Rena Ryuugu @Rui - I salute you both! For better or worse the Slayers series stole my heart years ago and has yet to give up that #1 spot. ^^...

    Will finally stop lurking and say hello!

    Hello! I've been lurking Anime UK News for some time now and finally wanted to properly introduce myself. :) My name is Katie and I'm close friends/work with @Demelza and @Teapot on another website. While I don't live in the UK, my country of residence being Canada, I've long enjoyed reading...

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    Wasn't sure what to go with and finally settled on Lina Inverse from the Slayers series. ^^
