    4k Anime & Dolby Atmos

    I’m curious, people with Dolby Atmos and 4k bluray set ups: do you notice a large difference with 4k discs to normal discs? I’m talking specifically for anime releases rather than Hollywood films. I can imagine classics/blockbuster films like Akira and Ghost in the Shell would be worth it, but...

    Interesting anime editorials & essays

    I happened across this editorial today while going into a wiki hole about Wicked City. I thought it made some interesting points about representation and gender in the 80s OVA Wicked City. Thought I’d share for others to push into their brain boxes if they wished. Any other interesting...

    Must own 80s anime

    I’m curious what everyone’s must own movies/series are from this decade. Some guidelines to make it more interesting: No Akira and Ghibli properties (a bit too obvious) Must be available to buy (or stream legally) with English subs or dubs

    Mondo Japan - Book

    I was wondering if anyone has picked up the new book by Patrick Macias, Mondo Tokyo: Dispatches from a Secret Japan? From what I’ve found, it’s only available in the UK digitally (Kobo and Kindle is where I’ve seen it) currently but should be out over here mid April. More info here.

    Thinking of buying a Panasonic DP-UB450EB UHD multi-region player

    Before I drop some money on this player (£199 on John Lewis), I was wondering if anyone had any experience with it. I’m keen on this one for the following reasons: • Dolby Atmos • HDR 10+ (matches my TV, Sony X700 has Dolby Vision instead) • Multi region (there is some Discotek releases I’m...

    Grandblue Fantasy Versus

    As Demelza reviewed the first volume of the manga, it reminded me of Grandblue Fantasy Versus which should be coming out next year. Is anyone excited for this? I'm personally quite into 2D fighters and despite having an arcade stick, I'm still below average at them 😅 As with Dragon Ball...

    My small manga blog

    I've recently started a small manga blog, Manga Worth Reading. I'm pretty much a manga noob but I thought I'd put my thoughts out into the world. Mostly reviews at the moment but a few articles on collecting too. Hopefuly it'll feature some guest posts by friends more in the know soon. Would...

    Sword Art Online - Aincrad

    I managed to find Sword Art Online - Aincrad in a charity shop the other day. I've done a little research into it but couldn't conclusively find out if this is the first SAO manga. I think it is but can't say for certain. I'm new to the IP so didn't want to jump in mid way through by accident.

    Hi all!

    Hi all, I'm fairly new to Manga. Just trying to get through the MUST READS at the moment as well as picking up a few newer things. I'm a freelance graphic designer in London. I used to do a Nintendo Switch YouTube channel but life / work has got in the way of that recently. To quench my content...
