    Manga Entertainment to Release FMA: Brotherhood Boxset

    DVD only.... I'd been holding off until this announcement. Guess I will be importing the Blu-ray boxset from the US then.

    The Times does an article on anime and piracy

    There were pirate tapes long before DVDs and the internet was in mainstream use and it is only one of their distribution networks, I was offered pirate DVDs while sat in a McDonalds a few months ago...

    Manga you wish were liscensed in the UK

    City Hunter, it too reached France but not the UK. For something more recent, I'd love Shin Mazinger Zero

    They're already re-editing Dragonball Z - it's called Dragonball Kai

    Sympathy for the Western Anime Industry

    Seconded. I'm often too impatient for UK releases because I know that if I wait that extra 3 months from the US release, there's a good chance I'll be on to the next big thing.

    Worst Anime EVER

    Can't say I have seen any of the others so I can't comment on those but I have to agree with Tank SWAT. It took a previously great show and made it into the ugliest mess I have eve forced myself to sit through. Everything was horrible from the looks of characters and backgrounds to the little...

    The lack of manga with fully coloured artwork

    Full colour Dragon Ball or Slam Dunk, yes please, I'd happily re-buy both of those at a premium if they were coloured in nicely. I don't ever see it happening though and if it did it would probably be a US production to milk DB or Kenshin further. The Japanese seem happy with their art books...

    VIZ & Manga Ent announce Mar, Buso Renkin UK distro deal

    Buso Renkin, now there's a series that I'll pre-order as soon as it can be. Awesome series, now if they just released the soundtrack too...

    Lupin III : Green VS Red

    That looks awesome. Lupin movie packs are the way forwards, I had 4 of the films in the First Haul box but it was still cheaper to get the box than the remaining dvd. Until they release The First Contact on DVD I doubt I'll buy another single Lupin film again. It burns too badly.

    bleach vs naruto vs one piece

    Wow that's tough, Up until the end of the Soul Society ark I would have said Bleach but I struggle to watch it at the moment, most annoying sidekick characters EVER! Seriously the show did not need them at all. Once they are gone that will probably climb back higher in my rankings. Naruto...

    Elfen Lied vs Dragonball Z

    Goku's relatively indestructible by normal standards, I mean beams that blow up mountains don't even scruff up his clothes later in the series! You can compare him with Gundams and he still has more power easily... That said she might stand a chance against Dragonball Goku as she could...

    3D-CG Appleseed TV anime coming soon

    There was one episode made of Dominion Tank S.W.A.T. and if you were lucky enough to not watch it, then consider yourself lucky. Don't get me wrong, I love the Tank Police but that was a show that casts a blight on the franchise. There are a million ways to describe it but you can sum it up...

    Appleseed 2; Buso Renkin anime; Genshiken 2 cancelled

    Awww, the first time I saw the post all my optimistic eyes saw was Genshiken 2, response a loud wohooo only afterwards did I see the cancelled, much louder noooooooooooooooooooooo. More Appleseed is always a good thing, I'm still hoping the game of the last one comes out over here.

    The London Anime Club?

    Fort Max is that after the Transformer of the same name? nice choice if it is, awesome toy. Anyway for the London Anime Club just turn up on the day and pay the £2.50 entry fee. The main reasons for showing up would be meeting more anime fans in person and the dealers selling region 1 dvds...

    Tanoshimi (Del Ray) UK manga release dates

    I long for and dread the day when manga can be brought from places like Tesco, for then I shall truely have to learn the fabled art of self control. Having to catch a train into London is a good way of limiting the amount I spend but it's a real pain if you only want one manga but have to spend...

    Anime vs Live action

    I love anime but even though Akira and the original Appleseed movie got me into anime, I wouldn't put them in my top ten. No anime movie has ever had me watch it so many times that I know half the script like Spaceballs, Star Wars or the Princess Bride. That said, if they were to ever...

    What was your first manga?

    First manga, a couple of random issues of Area 88 because I knew it was what the game UN Squadron was based on. That was back in 90-91ish and it took me till a couple of years ago to track down any more of it. Twas only after that I then realised Viz never finished releasing it and the last...

    Importing / subscribing to US manga anthologies

    Last time I checked (admittedly a few years back) it was cheaper to get your comic shop to get them in and reserve you a copy than it was to pay the incredible shipping fee for a subscription.
