    What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

    One of the great things about the Urusei Yatsura remake is it's meant a fresh round of merchandise for the OG waifu. I've been on the lookout for a good Lum figure for decades, but always either missed the boat, didn't like the sculpts, or didn't want to pay £100+. I was very close to buying...

    Game documentaries

    I figured this would make a good companion to the anime documentaries thread. Post links to any interesting game documentaries you find. Thorgi's Arcade This channel does massively detailed retrospectives of fighting game series, helped along by the presenter's sense of humour. They also do...

    Street Fighter 6 A massive improvement over SF5, especially considering the barebones state the previous game launched in. SF6 has an RPG-length story mode that's a great place to learn its systems. While its main plotline is weak, it's fun getting to know all the classic SF characters and...

    Probably doesn't help that it's on a crowdfunding plaftorm I've never heard of. That site's Trustpilot rating is pretty yikes too.

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    It's good to see Captain Harlock back in print. I'll have to check the quality on the DVDs to see if an upscale is worth double-dipping, but I'm tempted to buy the BD just to have a back-up copy of this classic. It's easily one of the best Leiji Matsumoto anime.

    UK Anime Distributor MVM Entertainment Discussion Thread

    I'm surprised that Executioner hasn't had a second season announced yet, considering that it's one of the best isekai shows of the last...ever.

    Godzilla Minus One/Minus Colour The Minus Colour version of Minus One is now on Netflix. G-1.0/C didn't get a UK cinema release, so this was my first chance to watch it. It's a testament to the lighting and cinematography that it works so well; most of the time it looks like it was shot with...

    Rate the last anime you watched out of 10

    Thankfully it was only 45 minutes. The other two Fatal Fury anime are a bit longer, but those have Mai Shiranui, so I'll probably watch them for reasons.

    Fatal Fury: Legend of the Hungry Wolf Yikes, this sure was a fighting game anime from the 90s, and all that that implies. I struggle to think of a single element of this TV special that I wouldn't describe as inept. The opening scenes were especially nonsensical, as we see the Bogard boys (with...

    I presume the explanation would be something like, "I want to become stronger. Stronger. Stronger. Hard work and guts. Some people can only communicate with their fists. ROCKETO PANCH!!"

    This thread would be a good starting place if you want to see what kind of videos people on the forum are watching about anime. Bear in mind that the membership on this forum tends to skew older than the average for anime fans, hence why a lot of the videos in that thread are about older shows...

    Dune: Part 2 I have conflicting feelings about this movie. That's not down to any particular flaws, though I don't think it reaches the same heights as part 1, but rather because it makes me drastically reassess a story that I've known in various forms for decades. The 1984 movie is how I've...

    Civil War A solid movie in the vein of Apocalypse Now, where a group of journalists travel across the wartorn US to interview its president on what seems to be the eve of his defeat. It's received some criticism for being vague about the reasons for a second US civil war, but that's pretty well...
