All Things ANIME

[Alice Adrenochrome]

I recently watched Witchblade on Blu-Ray and really enjoyed it! There are so many good anime series out there, it is hard to make any recommendations!

Ehhh... now that it's been mentioned a few times, Witchblade... ain't that American?

 

[minivader]

Ehhh... now that you mention it, Witchblade... ain't that American?

the comic and live tv show are american, the cartoon is done in anime featuring totally different characters and story.

Yeah, they just took the concept of the Witchblade being passed on and set the anime around the year 2100 in Japan.

Thats because your not a real man.

Once "high school of the dead" is available for purchase = it's gonna be mine. Only seen a few bits and pieces on youtube, but like it. Still have to check out witchblade.

lonnie, this is for you:









I think you haven't made it to my photo thread lately, but I figured, you'd like to see this. I have been bugging' you about this version of Rei (and Asuka) for years, haven't I?

In a way, it's a pity that Medicom decided to release these new variations, but, the way I see it, the originals aren't less exclusive because of it. Just a bit less desired, by me anyway, since I now have this one, and soon, Asuka will come too - hopefully closely followed by TETSUO!

ditto...I've seen the first 5 episodes & I'm already waiting for the set

 

[lcummins]

Yeah, I can't wait for that to be released either! In the meantime, I've pre-ordered the manga to tie me over!
