For those interested, MVM have updated their website : http://www.anime-on-line.com/xcart/home.php

Well at least it won't suffer from slow-downs I hope (especially when sorting by like 50 items per page).

Hope they've fixed the slow check out process on there.

Its much better and easier to filter items. The old site looked like something from the 1990's

I thought their old site had a certain amount of kitsch appeal, but I am also happy to see they have updated it somewhat. Their choice of image for the Outbreak Company banner reminds me that I never did watch that.

D.Gray-man has been spotted for an upcoming stage event at AnimeJapan 2016.

All for this, even if more attention towards D-Gray could prompt a potential license for the rest of the show (I'm clearly still butthurt ...)

So it's Shingeki no Corpses. Okay then, seems legit.

This is perhaps the best and most accurate description of the series I've seen so far.

Wow thins looks really promising and finally something to look forward to in the spring anime season

 

[NormanicGrav]

A new Fate project is supposedly going to be announced for 2016. Just like D.Gray-man, it's coming from AnimeJapan 2016.

 

[thedoctor2016]

FHA PLEASE OR fate extra but FHA FHA FHA FHA

 

[Professor Irony]

My first reaction on hearing about this Kabaneri was that it sounded comically similar to AoT, but having now seen the trailer, I think I'm okay with that.

Re:Zero getting an anime adaptation in Spring.

 

[Buzz201]

Looks to me like Snowpiercer meets Attack on Titan.

However, I wouldn't be surprised to discover it was more about trains than monsters and the marketing is a bait and switch...

 

[ilmaestro]

I guess Re:Zero is as close as we'll get to an All You Need Is Kill anime.

 

[MVM]

For those that may have missed our tweet earlier, we'll be releasing Nyankoi and Sasami-San@Ganbaranai collections on both DVD & BD next February.

 

[Rui]

Thanks MVM, I might check out that Sasami-san@Ganbaranai release! Great to hear that you're doing a BD.

R

 

[ilmaestro]

Awesome, I will definitely be picking up Sasami-san.

 

[ConanThe3rd]

In "Yes, this **** actually happened" news: Ford put out an advert staring some characters you might recognise.

 

[IncendiaryLemon]

... Okay then. Is there a lot of crossover between DBZ and Ford?
