Few small updates for everyone. First, some Canadian anime fans have wondered what Best Buy would be doing with anime, and we have a quote from Best Buy Canada. “The feedback that I received was that Anime titles don’t have the same market penetration here in Canada, mostly due to less TV exposure.

Got a stack of early news that may interest people. Let’s start with the least interesting stuff first. Dragonball Z TV Blu-rays are being worked on (or at least in the higher side of planning stages, I’m not 100% sure on that). Beyond that, I know nothing (minus a hint of maybe a pack in [...]

A show I’ve heard people talk about for awhile. Darker Than Black is probably one of the better shows in recent memory. Hard review to write for alot of reasons, but the main one is this show is complex, and very deep. So let’s take a look at Darker Than Black and see what’s what.

Am I the only person curious how Funimation will do Nerima Daikon Brothers? ADV’s three volume release had quite a few really good extras (I don’t think anything would beat the live action NDB). ADV’s 3 disk thinpak had none. What will Funimation’s version have? I hope they keep all the extras in what will [...]

After going over ADV’s changing boxart, I realized another company is doing something in regards to their packaging. Funimation has been emulating DVD packaging styles. Let’s take a look at what they’ve done.
