Trigun - The Complete Boxed Set from Pioneer Video Price: $149.99 Customer Review:  Trigun, in my opinion, is THE best and most original anime series to date. It has a certain flair of action, adventure, comedy and even drama and romance. Its the story of Vash the Stampede, a man who the whole world fears. They call him the Humanoid Typhoon. Trouble lurks everywhere he goes and he... |

Cowboy Bebop - The Perfect Sessions (Limited Edition Complete Series Boxed Set) from Pioneer Video Customer Review:  Cowboy Bebop is a great anime series. It takes place in a futuristic sci-fi setting and focuses on a group of bounty hunters trying to make ends meat and come to terms with their pasts at the same time. The series can be screamingly funny at times, heartfelt and touching at other and mind-bendingly... |

Serial Experiments Lain - Boxed Set from Pioneer Video Price: $95.98 Customer Review: How do I even begin reviewing a show like "Serial Experiments: Lain?" To start with, this is one of the most visually amazing, compelling, twisted, sci-fi-ish, dramatic, different and confusing anime series I've ever seen. It all centers on Lain, who, in all respects, appears to be a normal, if... |

Princess Mononoke from Miramax Price: $28.04 Customer Review: This movie has to get through a lot of barriers to American audiences: it's animated, they think "kid's stuff," and so they automatically think it's stupid and/or are dismayed by the violence (which really isn't all that bad, it's really glossed over, considering the warfare going on). And there's... |

Ranma 1/2 - The Digital Dojo - The Complete First Season (Box Set) from Pioneer Video Price: $79.98 Customer Review: When I first heard of Ranma 1/2, the premise alone made me steer clear. A boy, cursed in an ancient Chinese spring, turns into a girl whenever splashed with cold water. Hot water undoes the curse, but only until the next time. I wanted nothing to do with this gender bender series billed as a martial... |

Tenchi Universe - The Complete Boxed Set (Vols. 1-8) from Pioneer Video Price: $179.98 Customer Review: This DVD set features all 8 volumes of Tenchi Universe. Tenchi fans have mixed opinions on this seris. Some say its better than Tenchi Muyo!, but I say its pretty much equal because its longer. The drawing quality has decreased quite a bit from the original series, but once you get into Tenchi... |

Fushigi Yugi - The Mysterious Play - (Boxed Set 2, Seiryu) from Pioneer Video Price: $179.08 Customer Review: The second half was definitely better than the first but it still had a lot of problems (what else would you expect from Fushigi Yugi?). First the good things. The animation was better for the most part (there were a some poorly and lazily done episodes), but I guess they made up for it with the... |

My Neighbor Totoro from Twentieth Century Fox Home Video Price: $9.98 Customer Review: Given that I've already given a rave review of MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO for the recently released FOX DVD version, I won't be going too much into detail about the film on this page. However, I will say that the only thing which will be missing from Disney's long-delayed but finally evitable DVD release... |

Sailor Moon - The Movies Dream Boxed Set from Pioneer Video Customer Review: Instead of purchasing each dvd why not just get this boxset version, it's exactly the same. Plus it comes with a box (thus calling it boxset =^_^=) to keep these sailor moon movies in place. Each movie are from a specific season. "Promise of the Rose" was from the Sailor Moon R season.

Along the way she and her parents stop at what seems to be an old, abandoned amusement park. Her parents, who smell delicious food in the air, unwisely decide to follow the scent.

Ghost in the Shell from Palm Pictures/Manga Video Price: $22.46 Customer Review:  An extremely stylish film with great production values, but far too abridged in movie form. It only runs 78 minutes (a far cry from the 115 minutes listed in the specifications here as of this review!), and the story's depth and scope suffers quite obviously in its adaptation to this media because... |

Record of Lodoss War - Chronicles of the Heroic Knight (Complete Series) from CENTRAL PARK MEDIA Price: $62.99 Customer Review: I was thoroughly impressed when I saw the Record of Lodoss War OAV series. It was like being in a totally fantastic RPG. I've just watched all 27 episodes of the Lodoss TV series, and all I can say is... wow. I've always considered the Lodoss OAV series as ultimate anime RPG, but I think it's just... |

Samurai X - The Motion Picture (Rurouni Kenshin) from A.D. Vision Price: $26.98 Customer Review: In my opinion, Rurouni Kenshin is in my top 3 anime series of all time. Filled with humor, action, lovable characters, great storylines(although the sumo wrestler from season 1 was odd). So hearing of this movie, having watched the pre tv-OVA's, decided to watch this. Despite certain things that... |

Cowboy Bebop - The Movie from Columbia Tri-Star Price: $21.56 Customer Review: This movie has been described as an extended-length episode of the clever and well-shot Cowboy Bebop series; an unfair comparison. Knockin' On Heaven's Door, which assuredly takes place somewhere in the middle of the series, follows bounty hunters (or cowboys) Spike, Faye, Jet, Ed and Ein in pursuit... |
