Cowboy Bebop Remix: Anime Legends

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Anime and Manga
from: Paradox Entertainment Group

February 05, 2008
First of all, the series itself is beautifully mastered in the animation, dub, and music. Composer Yoko Kanno is an absolute genius! Remix's 5.1 sound is absolutely wonderful, and this is a total bargain for a series of this quality. The english dub is absolutely superb. For once I recommend it over watching in the japanese, since the subtitles give the language a stilted feel, and the dub keeps that edgy tone going.
The characters are outstanding, and Bebop gives the viewer enough credit to use their own brains to draw conclusions, instead of narrating everything out. Without a doubt this is one of the most poignant stories in anime.
This is not a series for kids - it was made for adults, and the first episode is so adult that ... Read More:

DragonBall Z: Season 1 - Vegeta Saga

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Anime and Manga
from: Funimation Prod

February 06, 2007
This is a fantastic Box Set! The remastered visuals, both English and Japanese voice tracks respectively and the revised English all come together nicely! This is a fantastic tribute to Dragon Ball Z and it's definitely the right way to watch it! And for the price, it's a steal! Watching Dragon Ball Z in widescreen is fantastic and simply more thrilling. And I shared the concern of many fans about losing some footage at the top and bottom although when I watched it, I realized that you don't even miss very much on the top or bottom from the widescreen aspect ratio change! So just sit back, relax and get ready for the most heart pumping anime out there!

INTRODUCTION:Season 2 DVD of the lengendary Dragon Ball Z series contains the interresting Namek and Captain Ginyu Sagas in 6 discs DVD set containing all 35 episodes of the second DBZ season.As popular and influential as this great anime can be,its DVD treatment so far left something to be desired,DVDs with only three episodes for over 20$ and others.Finally the
show based on the manga gets a fair treatment as it is released in boxed sets containing full seasons(one is already ainvailable,and more will be).

THE DVD SET ITSELF:With those DBZ sets they did good and bad things.The good things they did is that they released full seasons,updated the picture quality,its at a decent price and the booklet that gives a brief summary of each episodes ... Read More:

J'adore la série 'Instant Star' ou 'Ma vie de star', mais je recherche les DVD des 2 premières saisons en français, comme j'ai regardé la série à la télévision, je me demandais s'il n'y aurait pas possibilité d'avoir toute la série de DVD en français.

Merci d'avance de votre compréhension.

DragonBall Z: Season Three

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Anime and Manga
from: Funimation Prod

September 18, 2007
Yet again Funimation has graced us with another Season of uncut Dragon Ball Z. The quality continues to amaze me even in Season 3 although there are a few problems to be found although to some they might not be considered very large. Most characters in the English dub have revised lines such as Krillin, Frieza, Vegeta and Captain Ginyu although it's rather upsetting to see that characters such as Goku, Jeice and Gohan only receive partial revisions and it's mostly re-used diologue. The first two seasons were completely revised and it was near-perfect although it seems as though Funimation got lazy. I truly hope that the main character Goku can at least have revised lines for season 4 and 5 which I have yet to see.

Other than a few nit picks here and ... Read More:

Spirited Away

Childrens Toy Shop > DVD > Anime and Manga
starring: Michael Chiklis, Lauren Holly, Jason Marsden, Suzanne Pleshette, John Ratzenberger
directed by: Hayao Miyazaki, Kirk Wise

April 15, 2003
I will keep this short and sweet. This is a fantastic movie. So good that I wish there was a sequel, (even though we all know that that would never happen) because this movie was so special. I loved it. It's just one of those movies that makes you happy every time you watch it. Girls and guys alike will thoroughly enjoy it. I am generally very easy to please when it comes to movies, but the Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli movies are sure to please any movie critics out there. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes anime, or just likes to have fun.
