And to tie it all together, we have the inconspicuous White Castle sign.

And I didn't know F3 was released on DVD!

Don't blame him. We were all young and naive once, bootlegging and downloading all day long. Heck, I used to be the largest pirater of anime at my school. Then I graduated and found the wonderful world of disposable income.

What a shelf of contrasts. Beast Wars lying but a few titles away from Beat Angel Escalayer. My sympathies go out to Bamboo for eating Dwayne Johnson's fist.

I want to like Tweeny Witches. I've rented it not once, but twice on Netflix. It seems like I show I should like, but I just can't get into it...

Is this a Shelf Life article, or a very odd marketing campaign from White Castle? First, a strong warning against a certain kind of WC food, but then a conveniently placed White Castle poster in one of the photos. The plot thickens.....

Anyway, this week will be just a buy of Naruto movie 2. I'll be watching TTGL on Sci-Fi tonight and will wait for the bilingual DVD. xxxHolic can wait for a boxset release.

That guy has a pretty interesting collection, with or without the H titles. After all, the thing that's neat about seeing other people's collections is not only showing off loot, but seeing others' tastes. Cool

Plus, the Gurran review came almost just in time. I was actually thinking of giving the show a shot; the show looks very attractive and unique. I'm hesitant because robot-esque anime never clicked with me well, but it looks like the show is a helluva lot more than that. I'll go on Netflix at some point and check out the first episode.

Anyone else laugh at the White Castle sign in the first picture after Bamboo's rant?

Glad to see you love GL, Bamboo! Fantastic series!

which is similar to the Naruto series

Fixed.

Gurren Lagann is directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, who's leant his talents to works like FLCL and Dead Leaves, and it totally shows.

I suddenly find myself much more interested in this series (once they start releasing the dub) than after the VOD teaser ep.

but what the hell is wrong with that picture?

Somebody watching One Piece through a fish-eyed lense is my guess.

On the collection: hmmm ... points off for lack of alphabetizing, yet must issue annother pass for having the first three Pinky & The Brain seasons.

Deep Fried Burgers? Reading that made my heart whimper. Is there anything they won't fry?
