nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Thu, 29 May 2008 21:06:44 +1000

Love-ru - New AWESOME anime series , this series ROCKS !!

Its one of these series I like for the echhi level and bit of fanservice

So basicly you have this poor guy thats not good with girls
stuff keeps happening when he is about to confess ,
suddently a cute cosplay young alien girl with a tail
comes into his life and house (naked at first in the bathtub then
his bedroom) and he is the attention of the whole school.

Of course theirs a love triangle and all sorts of wacky stuff
about to happen to this poor bastard .

Ive only watched ep 01 , cant wait to watch more ,
I highly recommend everyone to watch this one

Ohh its another one of these series that has a transformation sequence
which when watching it she seems to be ultra sensitve around the tail
area and gets her self off a bit (not that I am complaining !)

nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Thu, 22 May 2008 18:04:20 +1000

Whats the point of buying (legit) Hentai when its censored ?

Browsing EzyDVD (DVD online store for Video EZY chain stores
and I see they have Hentai .

I am like COOOL , clicky clicky on link to get this:

Please note: All Adult product has been censored in order to meet the R18+ rating
defined by the Office of Film and Literature Classification. It is illegal for us to sell product rated X.

Thats really CRAP , whats the point of Hentai with censorship.

At least its in 4:3 full screen format and not WS with half the screen black.

Anime fansubs turn for the BAD - WS H264 sucks

nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Wed, 07 May 2008 21:43:50 +1000

To my huge disapointment both Flomp and DB have droped AVI XVID
and now using bloody h264 which doesnt work on dvd players like ROWA
or my new little usb tv out gadget .

Ohh BTW H264 sucks the big time

Looks like theirs a niche market for a new fansub group to pickup
the slack and offer AVI XVID fansubs of bleach and Naturo
in 175 meg FULL SCREEN 4:3 format.

Cross fingers and toes in hope that SD can come to the rescue

nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 19:07:48 +1000

Rave Master ( also Called Groove Adventure Rave) is an anime series that is based off manga
it came out in Asian in 2001 to 2002 . USA redub Release (2004) , UK gets USA redub (2004)
Australia . Who knows if its even going to be aired/sold here in ASIAN content format not
crapy USA english redubs. I checked Madman they dont even list it .

The Asian Studio behind this anime is Studio_Deen , the same company that did
Amaenaideyo! , Fruits Basket , Getbackers , Read or Die (OAV) ,
Samurai Deeper Kyo and Yumeria and Cowboy beop Movie (not the series)

Info:
This anime is about a 16 year old boy named Haru Glory

and his snow-dog/animal named Plue.
One day, Haru was fishing and he pulled Plue out of the water.
Plue becomes his guide as he goes on a journey to become a Rave Master!
Haru fights his first enemy and his sword, Ten Powers, gets broken.

So he and Plue goes from Garage island to Hip Hop Town and Punk Street
in search of Galein Musica, the legendary blacksmith.
Plue gets kidnapped by Georco, a thug from a gang called Demon Card in
Hip Hop Town.

Plue is than entered in a dog race. Elie, a girl they meet who has no memories,
helps Haru rescue him without knowing it. Then she takes the two to Punk Street
where they meet Musica. Many adventures will start from there.

Note:
The series ends at episode 51 even though the story is left hanging.
This is simply because Studio Deen never finished it.
The manga went longer and finished the story .

New April 2007 Anime - Sola , Heroic Age , Gigantic Formura

nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 00:00:02 +1000

Found some new good anime series to watch this month (April 2007) , also
came across some new CRAP series that I wont mention since I have seen lots of blogs
talk about them instead . As always I am getting the XVID AVI Fansub encodes with
Asian AUDIO and english fansubs built into the file . So onto the new cool anime ....

Sola
Sola is another manga to anime series , its another one of these 12 ep series which I try to avoid
since its too short . Sola only started airing in Japan in early April 2007 , so its pretty new.

Sola is about a single school guy who has a weird camera fetish with taking pictures of the sky
He has a childhood female friend , sick sister in hospital which has red eyes and blue hair
.Then he comes across a new girl that he only see's at night time and she is violent towards
electrical goods and vending machines and admits to him , that she isnt human but infact undead
Now im not 100% sure she is a vampire , but she maybe something else since she hasn't sucked
anyones blood , but shes cute and hates daylight . Of course the childhood friend can smell other
female getting his attention as does the sister and things get good at this point .

Lunaranime are doing the fansub encodes , they did the Bleach encodes until a while ago
now DB do the Bleach ones and they dont work on the ROWA dvd player (BOO) .
They are in AVI XVID codec format , in Wide screen (boo give me Full Screen dammt)

If this series was AU$25 to AU$55 in asian format WITH OUT american audio added
in DVD boxset I would consider getting it legit . But as it is I cant find any legit anime retailer
that license's anime off the asian companys direct in Australia without american audio.

Here is some pics from other reviews on it :

Heroic Age

TBA .... Stay tuned

Gigantic Formura

TBA ... stay tuned ...

Japan Night life style - What is it like ?

nobody@vox.com(Charliebrownau) — Mon, 11 Sep 2006 03:42:33 +1000

I have been thinking about what life would be like in Japan .
In Australia , geeks and nerds often will visit each other at night time ,
we like to watch Anime and tv shows at night time .

Some people like to do chores at night time , like clothes washing , cooking , cleaning , etc

Do they have 24 hour 7-11 type shops open at night time , or do they even have a shop like
coles or woolies that is open at night ??

Do their trains and bus's still go at night time ...

So many questions
