Someone on the Guyver!! facebook group posted an image from this, which made me curious. Found more images and it clearly was inspired by Guyver... And it turns out, it was available on Book Walker... So I bought both volumes, and ripped them. Still completely raw in Japanese sadly. "A clan of monsters that have existed since the Asuka period and protects the emperor from evil beasts called "monsters". Until now, they have continued to secretly fight fierce battles with monsters. The demonic beasts that resisted the Youbu clan evolved by absorbing human knowledge, and some of the demonic beasts that acquired cunning created an organization called the Grudges and trie…

The dark tokusatsu series Garo will be getting a new season which starts April 5th of this year. Unfortunately Kouga will not be in this season, instead a new Garo by the name of Ryuga Dogai will take his place along side 2 new Makai Knights, here is hoping this third season is a success, I leave you with a trailer of the new season. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rhh_k9c2zAs&feature=player_embedded

The anime adaptation looks like it's probably never gonna be finished, and I heard online that it's been fully translated. However, when I tried reading it on dynastyscans, mangadex, and vymanga, but none of them had the whole series. So anybody know where I can find it?

Happy Godzilla Day Everyone!

Looks to be VF-31 "Sigfried" vs Sv-26 "Draken III" with a group of idols this time. Though, apparently it was said that despite the VF-31's all being a different color and such, and the promo images have the idols with them, that the Idols are not piloting them.

Ok so for years I've put off getting into Gundam for several reasons. Mainly this was because I found the entire franchise so... daunting. Gundam is considered to be one of the biggest names in anime, if not the biggest, it's also a colossal franchise with tones of series, timelines and spin-offs. It seemed like a pure headache to get into but I'd like to try. But there are a few things I want to know. 1) I was going to start with the original gundam and work my way from there, is that the best idea? 2) Are there any parts of the franchise that's hard to come by for us western audiences. 3) Is there a lot of manga tie in stuff I'd have to hunt down? I'…

This might be old news to most of you guys, but I just learned that they are making a reboot of the last Showa Kamen Rider. Reboot of Classic Franchise: Kamen Rider Black Sun!｜Kamen Rider WEB[Official]｜Toei Company, Ltd. (kamen-rider-official.com) Big stars signed for ‘Kamen Rider Black Sun’ series in 2022 | The Asahi Shimbun: Breaking News, Japan News and Analysis To be honest, I'm not an avid Kamen Rider fan. I've seen a handful of series, but not hooked to every iteration (actually stopped following after Decade). This particular news caught my attention as Kamen Rider Black was my first official introduction to the Kamen Rider franchise (if you excl…

So, anybody following this? I've known for a long time that this came from a light novel, but actively chose to ignore it as I know I'll love it. They adopted this into Manga and eventually an anime series was created. Well, I'm currently reading the manga and the light novels, but have yet to see the anime. So far, I liked the first story arc where the main protagonist was treated poorly, that was the fun part. It started getting predictable when the status of the protagonist started improving. What do you guys think about this series?

BASTARD‼ -Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy- is based on the long running manga of the same name by Kazushi Hagiwara. Started in 1987 Bastard!! Is famous for its jaw dropping art work and long hiatuses. Bastard!! Has been on hiatus since 2010 and now the franchise is seemingly back from the dead with a new anime covering the complete manga run up to this point and a new figurine set. This is truly an exciting prospect! If Bastard!! Could have an exciting resurgence out of nowhere...then why not Guyver? If you are unfamiliar with Bastard!! I highly recommend giving it a go! It was one of the pioneers of the Dark Fantasy genre along side Berserk.

Entire first season is out on Netflix! I just finished the first episode ( which was the length of 3 episodes) and really liked it. If i didn't have to work tomorrow I'd plow through the entire series right now.

It's a pretty eclectic bunch I think. What did you watch last year, if any?

So, I've kinda been on a Digimon V-pet kick lately, and Bandai made an announcement regarding both Digimon and Kamen Rider.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Berserk/comments/ngp0dd/kentaro_miura_has_passed_away_on_may_6/ Kentaro Miura the author of Berserk passed away on May 6th.

Berserk consists of 363 chapters, currently volumes 40 have been collected. Chapters 358-363 will be collected into volume 41. Total volume sales have exceeded 50 million.

So, what do you reckon to this story? I personally really like it , second only to the guy very. Does anybody read the manga? On this month's volume ,86, we found out the secret behind the titans and the walls. What did you think to it, if you've been following it?

Ok whats your faviort piece of badly dubbed anime dialog. Be it a bad performance, writing etc. For me it's this little gem. Please note that this is THE English dub, as in people got payed to wright and perform this for western localisation. From what I hear this series, Ghost Stories, did so badly in Japan that it's creators pretty much told the English staff that they could do what the hell they liked with the dialog as long is it didn't change the over all story. How that led to this I'll never know.
