Soul Eater: Part 1, Early Look/Review

Working for the Grim Reaper himself can’t be the easiest job now can it?  Which is why he founded a school to… wait… Death runs a school?  Sounds a bit iffy for my tastes.
 

 
In fact, when I first heard about this show a couple years ago, I wrote it off completely.  But having arrived [...]

Dragon Ball Kai Announced, Here’s Extra Info

Dragon Ball Kai was finally announced by Funi as Dragon Ball Z Kai.
 

 
Here’s a bit of extra info I’ve had on hand for awhile about the release.
 
The current plan is to have the first DVD and BD boxes in May.
 
The BD releases will have a five dollar premium.
 
Having talked to a few people, it appears [...]

Dragon Ball Z: Dragon Box 1 Review

 
In 1999, Pioneer began releasing the edited TV version of the first two dub seasons of Dragon Ball Z on DVD. In 2000, FUNimation began releasing their own uncut, bilingual DVDs of the series, starting with the third dub season. In 2005, after the rest of the series was finished, FUNimation began releasing bilingual, uncut [...]

Sands of Destruction: The Complete Series, Early Look/Review

 
Back with another anime DVD to review, this time we have a Funimation show, via a Sega game… Sands of Destruction.
 

 
Sega doesn’t normally get the high marks for quality they used to long ago, so can a Sega based anime work out?

Siege #1 Review

 

In the immediate aftermath of Dark Reign comes Marvel’s next big crossover event, Siege. This event is being hyped as perhaps the biggest, most important one in years for the Marvel Universe; a culmination of everything since Avengers Disassembled, and the end of an era. It’s an awful lot to live up to, and comic [...]

Linebarrels of Iron: Part 1, Early Look/Review

Back on a new computer with a new review.  This time we have Gonzo popping up with the story of a boy and a mech (a story no anime fan has ever heard before…)
 

 
So does Linebarrels of Iron and the story of a boy and a mech show us anything we haven’t seen in the [...]

Are We Getting Mega Man 10?

A little birdy who tends to give me good game related info has given me one I just couldn’t wait to tell everyone, so feel free to take this as ‘rumor’… for now.
 
Yes, the Blue Bomber returns.

Blackest Night Part 1 Review

After much build-up and hype, DC’s big Blackest Night event finally began this summer, and is roughly halfway over now. The Green Lanterns, as well as numerous other heroes, are put to the test by the appearance of Black Lanterns — fallen heroes revived to extinguish all light from the universe. One could call it [...]

Blassreiter: Part 1, Early Look/Review

Back again, and this time with a bloody treat, Blassreiter.  One of the original simulcasts is finally getting a DVD release. After the show was given out for free, does the DVD deserve a place on your shelf?
 

 
Instead of my normal comment, a small warning.  Look at the cover art.  If the cover art [...]

Red Dwarf: Back to Earth (Blu-ray), Review

Gone for a decade, but definitely not forgotten, the Red Dwarf crew return.
 

 
After a decade away, is one of Britian’s premier sitcoms as strong as ever, or in this case, does time erode all things? Let’s go “Back to Earth” to find out. (And yes, I’m aware how terrible that line is.)
