holy shit... I had my first experience with Korean Ramen today and DAMN was it good. It was Nong Shim brand of the hot/spicy variety and it was both the best brand ramen I have had and the spiciest freaking thing I have eaten in my entire life! (but that's a good thing for me ;) ) I made a...
Eric, episodes 5-8 (disc 2) was where I REALLY began LOVING the series. The cliffhanger on disc 1 kinda sucks (especially because we have to wait till February for more episodes :frowning: ) Anyone get their R2 Nausicaa yet? Mine is still in the mail and I am interested in seeing some more...
Jez Tony, I'm just kidding man... no harm meant :). I was just pointing out that because you tend to prefer dubs, that the DTS version probably wouldn't be as good as a value for ya . Had no idea that it would put you over the proverbial "edge". Gomen! Gomen! ^_^;; Ya probably don't...
Picked up the Last Exile limited edition box at Best Buy. If you are gonna pick it up there, make sure to use in-store pickup because the DVDs were marked (and rang up) $49.99 (I am gonna take a printout back and get my $7 back, probably use it towards Someday's Dreamers). The box is GORGEOUS...
Nausicaa: Valley of the Wind shipped from YesAsia. Also, it shipped from their US warehouse (as opposed to Japan)... so it should come even quicker! :D:emoji_thumbsup:
You gotta tell me what you think about Someday's Dreamers, I have been thinking about getting that series. ;) Yes, you will find most retailers breaking street on anime because, mostly, they are soft dates and not hard (as in "Don't sell before x" is not on the side of the shipping box). I know...
Have any of you guys seen this R2 DVD? http://club.buenavista.jp/ghibli/pro...ex.jsp?cid=402 I have confirmed that it has english subs, so I am just wondering about the content. My 2 GODS of animation talking for 155 minutes is very appealing to me. EDIT: Uh, nevermind... the release date...
Jez, I am pretty easy to make cry with a number of things. Classical music sometimes makes me cry... especially in D-minor ("it's the saddest key of them all... it just makes people weep when they hear it"). The episode when Dr. Green died on ER gets me everytime, along with Grave of the...
Art books generally have nice pics of the characters. I don't have the Bebop one, but the Onegai Teacher artbook I got at Otakon has high quality pics of the entire cast (along with character designs, publicity shots, pics of OSTS/DVDs, and interviews [in Japanese]). I need to get more (have...
For $109, it better come with the very pretty Memorial Box. I got both seasons of Magic Knight Rayearth while TRSI was having a sale for $120 (all 12 discs). Not sure if that deal will ever come back though... it was around for about 3 weeks in their weekly advertisement.
I don't think they will release any more... I believe that the set is more meant to give as a present, ya know, to encourage your friends to start collecting the individual releases. I am waiting for Ranma-like season sets myself... the series is just too damned long (and still going!) for...
Heh, I've only got 1 anime titles in a snapper.... The Animatrix. Damn you Warner Bros. :D You're not gonna find me converting to thinpacks, uh uh, no no no, I've got enough room here in Florida to store a bunch more ;)
It's a great series, but it does drop off after Hideaki Anno was forced off the helm by the mangaka, Tsubasa. After that the series goes from mediocre to below-average in the last 2 discs. And yes... there is no real "ending" (heck, the manga series is STILL going in Japan!). I would get the...
Got my anime club tonight... anyone interested in seeing 2 subbed Battle Royale II trailers I found on www.battleroyalefilm.net? :) Note: wouldn't watch these if you haven't seen the first one, as they kinda give away the winner of the last Battle Royale. :) Trailer 1 Trailer 2 Looks...
Most of the people in my high school were idiots, Tony. Don't take what they say too hard. I just found my little nerd group of about 10 people and bonded with them (we were all in the theatre program together). Don't worry... people in college are MUCH more open-minded.
