Hey gang, Does anyone have any idea when the remaining Ghibli UK steelbook blurays will be released? Of the ones released so far, I've got Totoro and Nausicaa and I'm planning on getting Howl's moving Castle. The ones I'm really waiting for are Porco Rosso and Spirited Away, but I can't find...

Hi there, I bought these items on my last trip to Japan in 2007. They might be of interest to someone here and as I don't have the room for them any more I've decided to try and sell them. I'm not looking for huuuuge amounts, just PM me what it would be worth to you and don't forget delivery...

Hey guys, I've recently gotten into a couple of Japanese artists via Sky.fm radio on iTunes. I've picked up albums from Perfume, Capsule and Genki Rockets. Are there any other artists in this vein that I might enjoy? Something with lots of singing would be good for helping with my Japanese...

Hi there, AUKNers. I know a few of you have travelled to Japan before (Rui, I'm looking at you) and I'd like to ask for some advice for a trip I'm thinking of taking next year. My initial plan is to book flights in the new year sales, get a JR rail pass and travel around Japan in a loop...

Anyone else here taking the JLPT test this weekend? It's my first go sitting the N5 level and I'm rather nervous. Would be great if there is someone here who has sat the exam could let me know what to expect. Cheers K

I've just finished the original Gundam series and really enjoyed it. I'm in the mood for something similar (but not Gundam AGAIN) and fancy checking this out. From the clips I've seen on Youtube it's got some pretty great 80s animation going on and apparently has a great soundtrack. However...

Is it still getting a re-release? I seem to remember someone on here saying it was being re-released in the US and possibly the UK, but since then I've heard nothing. Cheers, K

I know you lot have probably moved onto Marvel Vs Capcom but I've just got back into this after spending most of this year playing Deathsmiles and Vanquish. So if anyone is up for arranging some casual, friendly games that aren't endless Ryu, Ken, Akuma spam fests, please reply here...

Checked out volume #1 of this at a comic shop over the weekend. The premise sounds awesome, it features some seriously cool violence and I was loving the art style. Before I jump in and start buying volumes though, has the series been released in it's entirety? I don't want to make the same...

Can anyone tell me what the dealio is with this series of manga? I fancy checking it out as it's supposedly the inspiration for Tarantino's Kill Bill. I can only find 4 volumes which confusingly seem to be numbered: vol.1 vol. 2, lady snowblood: Retribution vol. 2 lady snowblood...

Years and years back, I remember catching a scene of an anime film on cable TV which I think was Fist of the North Star. In this paticular bit, all I remember was a 50ft giant walking through a valley whilst being attacked by hundreds and hundreds of Ninjas. It was hilarious. Is this...

Hi there, bit of a long shot but I wonder if anyone can help me... I've decided to start a Japanese course and I was looking at taking one at the IIEL: http://www.iiel.org.uk/english/e_aboutiiel.html and despite what it says on the website evening courses aren't available at the moment...

Unfortunately I got two copies of this for my birthday (turns out people know me too well). So my plan is to sell one and buy The Art of Howl's Moving Castle with the money. I'm only asking for £12 delivered or £10 collection, which is cheaper than Amazon and the item is in as new...

Anyone here have any experience in converting their DVDs to MP4 format? I'd like to be able to watch some of my anime series on my ipod or mobile during my commute. It all looks a bit tricky. Ideally I'd be looking for some free software but if I have to pay a few quid for decent software to...
