Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers (Blu-ray), Early Look/Review

Eureka Seven is back… in movie form.  Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers (long enough title I think) is a new adventure with Renton, Eureka, and the crew of the Gekko.
 

 
I’m sure all the Eureka Seven (I certainly won’t be using the full title every time in the review…) fans already ran off [...]

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 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?

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 [...]

Naruto Shippuden The Movie, Early Look/Review

Another year, another Naruto movie on DVD.  This time it’s based on Shippuden though, so everyone is a little older and a little wiser (well not really wiser…)
 

 
Shonen movies are always stuck in that loop of wanting to be ‘the big movie’ version of a show, and then having to reset to point zero at [...]

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 [...]

Escaflowne: The Movie (Blu-ray), Early Look/Review

Time for another early review.  This time we have the Escaflowne movie, now having over half a dozen American releases.
 

 
Having had over a dozen releases, and the Ultimate Edition from day one still being the preferred version, is Escaflowne on Blu-ray a great release?  Or should it go in the pile of disks that few [...]

Naruto Shippuden: Volume 1, Early Look/Review

It’s time for more Naruto.  Last time we left the precocious ninja children, Naruto was leaving the village to spend a few years training to prepare to fight the villains everyone knows is coming.
 

 
The characters are a little bit older, so does a few years skipped lead to anything good? (For anyone who wants to [...]

Bleach The Movie 2: The DiamondDust Rebellion, Early Look/Review

The second Bleach movie is getting it’s American release almost a year after the first.  This time around the movie sticks it’s focus on a known character.
 

 
Does this two disk package hold the Bleach name up high?  Or does Bleach The Movie 2: The DiamondDust Rebellion need a good bit of white out (ah, back [...]
