Mobile Suite Gundam: Cucuruz Doan’s Island Film I must have slept through this going up on Crunchyroll. Damn son, this has everything I want from a Gundam movie, Zakus, Zakus and Zakus. Oh and the little things like a human element to the story, an anti war message and minimal moody teenagers...

It’s such a great show, I need to get round to buying it soon. My daughter likes it too, although pretty sure the subtext is lost on her at this point. Hopefully she’ll be happy to rewatch it as she grows older and pick up on it on her own 🥰

@Puringa I assume you got hit with import tax on that lot? I foresee a lot of Lupin in your future 😂

Somali and the Forest Spirit is DotW on Anime Limited.

Yeah I’m trying my hardest to finish one series before I start another. Kaiba has ruined that because I’m finding it tough to watch more than one episode at a time. Probably why I’m working through my films instead.

Summer Wars Film Yeah more films. I think the concept of the film is pretty great considering it was made 15(?) years ago now. However the downside is, no visual medium ever makes VRish social media look cool, same for hacking. It’s cool to see the seeds for Belle her though which I thinks...

How is IWS series? I’ve had my eye on it for a while but I keep getting distracted with anime releases.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Film Another rewatch of a film that I thought I remembered pretty well and it turned out I didn’t. I do remember that when it came out it was the first anime I watched that wasn’t about blowing things up 🤣 then I realised that anime could be about more than that...

Just wanted to say thanks again. I’ve been really enjoying the AWO podcast. I’ve gone back and cherry picked episodes of interest and then just started listening from episode 200. According to Apple I’ve listened to 29 episodes, so nearly one a day 🤣

@Birdie Num Num The Initial D omnibus looks nice! Love the bigger size. I might have to pick them up sometime as I really enjoy the anime.

Another batch of 2nd hand stuff arrived today (although Hal and Lu over the Wall are both sealed). Hoping I can watch Lu and Momo with my daughter 🥰 Hal was a bit of an impulse as it was the same seller and the price was good. Just two more things to arrive from the US now and that’s me good for...

Akira Film So I’m in a film club where we have a theme picked each week (by the person that watched “the best film” from the week before) and this theme was dystopia. I’ve been wanting to watch Akira again for a while and kept putting it off for some reason. This is actually my first rewatch...

Millennium Actress UHD, Ghost in the Shell UHD & Sailor Suit & Machine Gun from HMV and a few 2nd hand pick ups.

Loving the artwork 🤣 will buy it for that alone…

Kaiju No. 8 Episode 1 Fun romp with nice animation. Good blend of over the top shōnen action with some (actually humorous) humour thrown in. Brain off and enjoy 👍 Memories Film anthology Magnetic Rose From the synopsis, I thought this would be really creepy. It wasn’t as much as I thought but...

Kids on the Slope Complete What a fantastic series. I’m not crying, you’re crying! 😭 Just about the perfect series where you wish there was more but at the same time glad that it the perfect length. Two salty tears of joy out of two 💧💧

More gap filling. I should stop buying stuff though…

Where is better to buy discotek releases from, Amazon US or Crunchyroll? I’m assuming with CR, I’ll have to pay additional import duty where as Amazon it’s a part of the price?

Oh nice, I’ll check it out.

I didn’t realise that one of the region free mod places was in my town so I went in today and chatted with them. Ended up walking out with this which is perfect for my current setup. Also saved myself some money so ordered Millennium Actress and Ghost in the Shell on UHD.
