Hollow mask makeup

October 16, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

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

October 6, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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. You’ve got to figure that these two vids will be yanked under YouTube’s Claim Your Content policy fairly quickly. So? Watch them now […]

Scotland Loves Anime

August 22, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here’s a charity worth supporting: Scotland Loves Anime.  They’re coordinating a festival/series of anime screenings in Scotland and it seems like  an absolute age since  the last one so these screenings are likely to be  popular indeed. The festival will be taking place from the 8th to 10th of October in Glasgow and the 15th […]

The Supernatural anime trailer

August 9, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

August 7, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

July 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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

July 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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 […]

Bleach 280

July 19, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Since very popular Bleach fansite Bleach7.com is down for the count I thought it might be a good idea to put a placeholder live for Bleach 280. Why? For many fans this will be the first Bleach they’ve had to go looking for without Bleach7.com. Let’s hope 280 is a good episode! This isn’t a […]

What happened to Bleach7.com? It’s down, dead and gone!

July 17, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 23 Comments

Scanlation is not popular with the anime and manga license holders. They see it as an enhanced form of piracy. They may or may not be right. The debates remind me, very much, of the debates going on in the music industry. Fan site Bleach7.com has been caught up in the drama. It was once […]

Manga for sale – all of it – the whole company

July 9, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Variety are reporting that Starz wants out of movies. This means that Starz Media is for sale. Starz owns Overture, Anchor Bay Entertainment, Film Roman and Starz Animation. They also own Manga. Starz also has stakes in companies like POW! ENtertainment (That’s Stan Lee’s company) and Archie Comics as well as been part of funding […]
