Comic Site Rant: We’ll meet back here in a week

Original Post Yes, for the first time in god knows how long, I will not use the internet. I’ll be away from internet land for a week due to a couple of reasons: 1) because it’s finals week, and this semester I actually have finals I need to study...

Shuffle! US release to get a box

So apparently after a lot of fan yelling FUNi’s going to put out a box for The Best Series Ever. I was kind of bothered that DVD 1 lacked a box, but I had other things to be angry about so it didn’t phase me too much. A box...

Hahaha, what

Oh man, I just had a dream where Golgo 13 was fighting Lupin III. It was far more bizarre than that, but I can’t even begin to describe just how batshit this all was. For starters tough, Golgo had emotions. Maybe this is because I watched an episode of...

Kaiji’s ending was more down to earth than I expected. For all its JUST AS PLANNED nonsense and general detachment...

Bandai saves Gurren Lagann from the depths of license hell

Subbed only, first DVD hits in July. Dub release in 09. Man, I wish I could’ve been there for this announcement. Not like I could’ve possibly been at the NYCC, but it would’ve been neat. I like how they’re doing a sub-only release just to get it out there...

Spring 08 Impressions PART IV

I watched all these a couple of days ago so these aren’t immediate reactions like the last few posts. Kamen no Maid Guy This was a real disappointment. I expected quality gags in the vein of Hayate, but instead I got some really badly designed and poorly scripted bunk....
