This year's annual Doraemon movie entitled "Nobita's New Great Adventure into the Underworld" (AKA "The Seven Mages" or "Shin Makai Daibouken"), is another remake just like last year's one. Premièred in cinemas back in March, this time it's a remake of the 1984 movie which had a similar name. Just like the first movie, the original...
The official Code Geass site has been updated with info about the final Sound Episode 6 and season one volume 9 DVD. Contents of the sound episode remains the same as previously reported and Nunnally's character song has yet to be determined. I wonder if she'll sing something like "Taisetsu na Onii-sama (My Precious Brother)" or...
The release date and tracks for the final Code Geass drama CD has been revealed on the Livedoor Anime News Blog. Nice cover too since it features the cast from the first season. Now why did I bother importing that July issue of Newtype? Well, guess I have the other 3 tracks that this CD won't have at least and it's good news for fans that...
An early post today since I already had this written up from last night. I decided to give the short story translation from yesterday a separate post because considering how long the post was, some people might end up missing this gem. I didn't like having it stuck in the centre. This is one of the 10 short stories that Shinkai came up with...
Yes, after watching a downloaded copy I liked the movie so much I decided to shell out for it. My limited edition of "Byousoku 5 Centimeters" arrived from Play-Asia safely this morning with no custom charges. The last time I tried ordering a Japanese DVD, they taxed me around £10 or so... Originally I was planning to order from the...

In fact, it's already being serialised in the Japanese novel magazine, "Da Vinci" since the May issue. According to the official "5cm Staff Blog", what happened was some of Shinkai's fans who...
Well, that's twice I've e-mailed Animegamers.com since receiving my order from them two weeks ago. Nothing. I was expecting an apology or an explanation as to why my limited edition of "GetBackers Vol. 39" was missing the postcards that were supposed to have come with it. As I mentioned in my last post, they were the whole reason why I...
The Asian DVD (both the regular and limited editions) came out about a week ago complete with English subtitles. The limited edition contained the English dub too as well as other languages. I didn't pre-order this one like I did when "Spirited Away" was due for release even though I'm a fan of Ghibili's movies because its trailers just...
Shinkai Makoto's latest work "5 Centimeters per Second" just came out on DVD this Thursday, both the regular version and limited edition package. I didn't really know anything about it until I saw many versions of the RAW floating around on several Anime sites so I decided to look it up. I've actually watched some of his previous work...
This sound drama CD just came out a few days ago on June 27th and contains the following tracks: Again, I have this posted on Animesuki if you want to go somewhere to discuss these filler sound episodes. Translations of the first track and others can be found here. Stage 15.447 “Playing Strangers" Shirley
Hmmm, your name was...
