Despite the major anime fan I am, I only buy anime DVDs once in a while. Most of my money goes towards other anime products, such as posters, calendars, keychains, plushies, etc,. I think this is because I only like to buy box sets and they can be pretty expensive. And I’ll usually only buy DVDs of a series if I’m sure I’ll like it(if I’m gonna spend that much of my hard-earned money, I want it to be worth it =P) But every now and then I’ll treat myself to an anime box set, so when I found out about this awesome holiday deal at AnimeNation, I just couldn’t pass it up!

Grave of the Fireflies on TCM
November 14, 2006 by 1 Comment
Isao Takahata’s acclaimed Ghibli film, Grave of the Fireflies, aired last night on the Turner Classic Movie channel. But unlike other Ghibli films that have aired on TCM in the past, only the English dub version of this one was shown. This is one of the few Ghibli films I hadn’t seen before; I was avoiding it because I knew it would be extremely depressing and the kind of movie I would have to psyche myself for. But I finally watched it, and I liked it, though it isn’t one I would want to watch over and over, not because I don’t think it’s a masterpiece, which it is, but because it’s such a tragically sad story.

With Inuyasha being my most favorite series of all, this is something that’s been on my mind for a while now. And now that all the episodes have aired on Adult Swim, I feel even more obliged to get my point across…
New Bleach dub+rant: “Give English VAs a break”

Well, Bleach has finally been officially released in America. And even though it didn’t seem to create quite a reaction as when Naruto was officially released, it’s still a pretty big deal for Bleach fans. As of my writing this, I’ve watched Bleach fansubs up to episode 98 and I’ve watched the 5 dubbed episodes that have aired on Adult Swim so far…and I’m happy to report that I’m pleased with the dub.
