Detroit Metal City (Live-Action) Movie – Review

Detroit Metal City (Live-Action) Movie – Review

I’m convinced that Kenichi Matsuyama is the most dynamic young Japanese actor alive at the moment. Seriously this guy is a chameleon, meaning you notice his roles, not the actor…which is how it should be in movies (I’m looking at you Hollywood).

Saved By The Anime

Saved By The Anime

Up until this month, I had been living without using Netflix to fill the void of on demand entertainment.

Blue Exorcist Volume 1 – Review

Sometimes reading a new manga, especially the first volume, can be somewhat difficult. This week’s release of Blue Exorcist (青の祓魔師 – Ao no Ekusoshisuto) by Kazue Kato almost became one of them. Thank goodness that the somewhat slow beginning led to some great characters and locations.

Watch Sunrise’s Tiger and Bunny on April 2nd

Growing up as an anime fan has been a double edged sword. The good side is that the art style and animation that I love so dearly is finally being noticed as a great medium, the bad side is that we’ve had to deal with some bad stuff over the years like Pokemon (it WAS […]

Death Note Collection (Blu-ray) – Review

Until this weekend, I was a complete virgin to the whole Death Note series, I had no clue what the hell a Death Note was, how it worked, and the entire series that came from the relatively short manga series. It turns out that I’ve really been missing out on some great stuff, I’m just […]

Toriko: Gourmet Survival Screenshots Make Me Hungry Like A MAN

Thanks to our benevolent dictator, I’ve just recently become aware that Toriko is a thing. If you’re not aware of it, Toriko is an anime about the baddest MotherEffer to ever live, and his goal to kill and eat the most dangerous and delicious monsters in existence.

Viz Media iPad App – Review

Viz Media iPad App – Review

I’ve read manga for what seems like 20 years now. I’ve read it in both English and Japanese and for some reason, I’ve enjoyed reading manga much more than reading comic books here in America. This may be because I’m a stark raving mad weeaboo when it comes to Japanese culture, but for me it’s […]

Weeaboo Wednesday: Learning The Ways of Super Robot Wars

Weeaboo Wednesday: Learning The Ways of Super Robot Wars

Though there is many different genres of anime, the one I’ve always been most attracted to has been mecha. I love giant humanoid robots fighting each other, whether it’s the hardcore scientific side like Armored Troopers Votoms, or the insane fighting-spirit powered robots of GaoGaiGar. So when I learned there was a Japan-only video game […]
