    Winners of the Anime UK News banner competition

    It's possible you've got some ad blocking programme on your computer(probably integrated into security software). That was the problem I had, Norton blocked both the banners and the links to the banners in the original post.

    Winners of the Anime UK News banner competition

    for some unknown reason I can't see the new banner when using windows. could be Norton thinking it's an AD though. Looks good from the Ubuntu end of the scale. Nice work, beats my graphically challenged piece anyday. :)

    Manga Force - UK anime magazine hits national TV

    Spotted this ad on RTÉ which is Ireland's BBC so to speak. Must really be pushing it if they paid to advertise it there(seeing as if you have the choice you watch UK television).

    Merry Christmas from Anime UK News

    sadly only things which cause an ethical crisis. ohh! how I loathe this bloody month. Although the three musketeers isn't that questionable as it's only 3EUR.

    Editorial: Naruto and The Future of the UK Anime Industry

    Even so, 15 Episodes is alot to get started. Being blunt i guess i've just moved on from this kind of anime. Reminds me of those old days of Dragonball Z, but that was some time ago and you can only stay ten for so long...

    Editorial: Naruto and The Future of the UK Anime Industry

    Having seen this for the first time i'm a little disappointed, hearing the drones of the fans i would have thought it would be more than just generic non-sence. i'm sure it will rope in more people but will it capture them or will they all treat it like another Pokémon and personally thats what...

    ADV UK screenings of The Places Promised In Our Early Days

    You know an art house really is the best place for it, do you really want it in a Cinema? Face it, it isn't the right stuff for a cinema. All the class films go to art houses.

    Oshii encourages Goro Miyazaki to succeed

    Nietzsche is without doubt one of the best, although to understand you really need to read it more than once. A forerunner to existentialism which in my own opinion is one of only two philosophies worth talking about, the only being Marxism. I wouldn't say it gets in the way of the story...

    Oshii encourages Goro Miyazaki to succeed

    Ah! Conflicting opinions, brings a smile to my face. Nietzsche hasn't failed me yet with his interesting take on good and evil. I think it's pointless really to continue on with this trend of conversation since it really is a matter of conflicting opinions and in thoses conflicts no-one wins...

    Oshii encourages Goro Miyazaki to succeed

    But isn't that the problem i'm pointing out? It's actually because they are aimed at a younger audience that causes the problem, It doesn't allow you the room to introduce themes which work to make a point. All you end up with is a stereotyped movie with all the cliché's of good and evil attached.

    Oshii encourages Goro Miyazaki to succeed

    That might be your opinion but there are some among us anime fans that actually like something that is more than just a happy "Please the kids" theme. I have not seen anything like that come from Studio Ghibli or their directors.

    Eurovision 2006

    Germany's entry wasn't even european! how can you win with a song too american to be liked in mainstream europe? The UK! All i will say is that you can't win a song contest with a rapper and four schoolgirls that can't sing.

    Eurovision 2006

    Still thats not the point i'm trying to make. I mean Lordi himself has spent ten years staying in character. Until march no-one had seen him outside costume. I actually liked it, She's won a new fan here.

    Eurovision 2006

    Star trek? You know i don't think i've every seen a Demonic Heavy metal act in star trek? Personally i'd have chosen Belgium but unfortunatly they didn't get out of the semi-final.
