We’ve got X-Men First Class to look forward to and worry about at the same time. There’s also another new X-Men franchise on the way. That’s Madhouse‘s anime version of X-Men for Animax. This is the same pair that produced the anime Ironman and Wolverine. The anime starts on April the 4th. We’re expecting to […]

Bleach anime to be cancelled?
There’s growing concern that the popular Bleach anime will be cancelled. Rumours started when the Japanese rock group ROOKiEZ is PUNK’D published a blog post that said their song “Song for…” was a “fitting” end theme for Bleach anime’s final season. To make matters worse, ROOKiEZ is PUNK’D then deleted the post. The deletion, I […]
Project Ninja revealed: It’ll be an anime MMO
We’ve been hearing a bit about a secret “Project Ninja” with blogs speculating what it might be about. At the end of last year Geek Native published the first set of character illustrations and noticed how much like Naruto and Bleach they were. Now we know the truth. Project Ninja will be an anime MMO. […]
Hollow mask makeup
Would other Bleach fans agree with me when I suggest this is Hollow inspired makeup? Yeah, sure, we can start to debate if half-a-mask counts as something else but in terms of inspiration – this is Bleach tribute? Or is there another series I need to track down and start watching?
Watch before it’s YouTube Yanked: English Dub Iron Man anime
The Madhouse production of an anime version of Iron Man has been long teased. We’ve seen snippets and trailers. Now we’ve got the whole first episode, in two parts, available on YouTube.

The festival will be taking place from the 8th to 10th of October in Glasgow and the 15th […]
The Supernatural anime trailer
The CW‘s Supernatural starting Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles is to go anime. The anime will be produced by Mad House for Warner Bros. There’s a website up already but it’s in Japanese except for the pages which say “Coming Soon” – which is about all of them. Of note is the low low price […]
Summer time lapse of a life-sized Gundam
Anime heroes tend to come and go. Sure, the likes of Bleach, Dragonball Z or even Pokemon have been around for years – but compare that to Batman or Superman. Compare those to the likes of the Phantom or the Shadow. I’m no expert but my gut feeling is that Gundam is one of the […]
Silly looking Sengoku Basara samurais come to PlayStation and Blu-ray
Funimation and CapCom have got their hands on (some of) the Sengoku Basara license. The anime is coming out on blu-ray on October 12 and so is the computer game. In Europe the computer game will be out just a few days later. The problem here is that Funimation doens’t appear to have the anime […]
Iron Man anime airs in 2011 – teaser video available now
This anime-inspired version of Iron Man won’t reach US TV any time soon. We’re looking at the last three months of 2011. Grok knows how long/if it’ll be before it appears on UK TV. This is a Warren Ellis scripted production – I mean; it’s really his thing, isn’t it. Mr Transhumanist. He’s the guy […]
