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?

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 [...]

Update: Funimation has confirmed with me via e-mail that they are NOT dubbing either show, nor do they have the rights to. So both of these are bunk.
 
I’ve gotten a bit of news about both of these lately.  Neither are confirmed, but we will see.
 

 
First up we have Shaman King, which 4kids previously had. [...]

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 [...]

It’s time to announce the winners of the Dragon Ball contest.
 

 
This was actually a really tough one, because quite a few of the entries were really good stories. I ended up picking two stories, and one amusing little aspect that has always made me smile myself.
 
First place is Joe Ricard.
 
Second place is Jack Bass.
 
Third [...]

Contest closed a few days ago. I will be going over all entries over the weekend and get in contact with the winners, and I’ll be sure to post the winners and some of my personal favorites.
 
And based on if I’m able to get out to where I need to be to make it [...]

Just thought I’d remind anyone who wanted to enter that our contest ends tomorrow night.
 

 
The main prize is Dragon Ball Season 1 on DVD, but there are a few other prizes that aren’t being revealed.
 
Contest article is here.
 

It appears Seifer misread.  Thanks to A PR rep from Funimation who checked the trailer frame by frame Digimon Frontier definately does not appear in it.  Fanboy Review regrets the error, and Seifer is currently getting his 12 lashings.
 
It appears when ShoDojo launches it will launch with a few new shows (or it’s possible they [...]

Wow, it’s been a long trek to get this on DVD.  It’s kinda ironic that the last bit of all the original Dragon Ball/Z/GT related animations we finally get uncut are the first few episodes of the series (not including the 2008 special or Kai in that, purely all the originally released stuff.)
 

 
This is where [...]

So I sat down to start watching Gonzo’s “Gad Guard”, not knowing much about the series, except that it was a mecha anime.  Now I know what you’re thinking (I thought it too); if you’ve seen one mecha anime, you’ve seen ‘em all.  But don’t count out “Gad Guard”; it may surprise you, a little.
 

 
I [...]
