I’m not sure if I should be excited or terrified…
 

 

 

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?

My main computer had it’s motherboard go poof.  I’m in the midst of getting it replaced, but it’s gonna take awhile.
 
I’m going to try and do a review or two this weekend, but any extra stuff regarding the last contest will be delayed a bit (and if I do any Blu-ray reviews there won’t be screenshots.)
 
Thanks for being understanding, and hopefully when everything is back I’ll have some good news.
