On the side of the box it say that it made under licence from Ezaki Gilco which is the company that makes Pocky. So this...

    most annoying anime character?

    Me too, no Shinji-bashing from me, it was Asuka I really wanted to slap. However, the characters I find particular irritating are: Chi-Chi, in the Dragon Ball series, particularly Dragon Ball Z and GT. She seems to be wining and complaining in virtually evey scene she in which she appeared...

    New US anime licenses; Manga is "over in Japan"; X-Men shojo

    Whether his right or wrong, probably right from his perspective but wrong in terms of the bigger picture, if it means 4Kids will leaving manga/anime alone I won't be unhappy. I didn't like the sound of that at first (Xavier School Fruit Club?) but then I remembered that it wasn't too different...

    Real Drive - Ghost Hound - Ghost in the Shell live-action?

    Ghost Hound and Real Drive both sound interesting. Looking at the description of Real Drive on the IG website it seems to take the concepts of the GITS/GITS:SAC series and advance them to the next level. Like the earlier posters I'm not enthusiastic about a live action Ghost In the Shell. I'm...

    Hunter X Hunter Licensed

    I hope it is true but it does seem to be a rumour of a rumour and even if true I fear the R2 English licence is still a long way off. For some reason I thought there already was a R1 licence for the anime.
