Anybody else notice that Bandai channel website is denying access to the clips/anime episodes shown there?I am bummed.
This japanese website showed some compete first episodes of shows such as Solty Rei, Higurashi and 3pokahn.There was no subs,of course,but it was great seeing some recently released unlicensed ( as yet) shows.

Maybe it is only available to those whom live in Japan. Much like Jetstream is only available to those who live in North America.

Exactly I'll give you a different example but sorta the same. I have a friend who went to London this Summer and is gone till March 07. Her favorite series is Grey's Anatomy, but since the series hasn't air at all in London she can't watch it. Yet in America the series is available online, it's block in London.....so she ended up ordering it off Itunes.

Oh yes, if you want to check out this site,first go back to the ANN home page,in the left hand column under 'encyclopedia' click 'companies'. then click the 'B'.then go down the column to bandai channel and click it. then click 'official website'. when you're on the bandai website,there is a header across the top of the entire page. under it are three columns.left hand box is what is playing,center box is the screen and the right hand box is what is available.maybe you'll have better luck than me.pls try it and let me know if you have any results,thanks from the rag.

It still plays a movie. The movie says, in English no less, "sorry, but you're screwed". Well, sort of. This is just yet another example of how the great "global equalizer" that so many liberals hoped the internet was going to herald was in reality nothing more than a silly pipe dream. The internet will eventually stop at all the same borders as any other medium which came before it; it's just taking governments and companies time to catch up.
