Wolf's Rain - Final Encounters (Vol. 7)

Arisa Ogasawara, Unshô Ishizuka

Bandai, 2005

can't help but wonder what the original vision was for this series...
...if the writers intended to have a reset-style ending all along, or if they were forced to compress and compromise their original vision. Would be very interested to hear about the "original" ending envisioned (and I don't mean that of ep 26) by the writers... ...

Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon

Masako Nozawa, Takeshi Kusao

FUNimation Productions, 2006

Probably the best DBZ movie for effects and storyline.
Wrath of the Dragon is definitely an alternate storyline. However this is the case because it is directly linked to the Trunks storyline. Without giving a spoiler, you find out the origin of the sword that Trunks carries in the series. In the manga which gives more ...

Castle in the Sky

Mayumi Tanaka, James Van Der Beek

Walt Disney Video, 2003

One of Miyazaki's more adventure-based films...
I love almost all of Miyazaki's works (with the exception of Porco Rosso), and Castle in the Sky is no different. Miyazaki's story-telling style tends to be rather slow-paced, which is fine, but I really enjoyed this movie for its faster, more energetic pacing. ...

Dragon Ball - The Saga of Goku - Boxed Set

Masako Nozawa, Hiromi Tsuru

Trimark, 2000

Come On People!!!
A lot of these people writing these reviews must be sickos. This is the edited version but what is the big deal. The parts that are edited ain't even that serious. So they edited Bulma naked or whatever it may be what do you want to see it so bad. It's not like it's a ...

Dragonball Z Movie

Wolf's Rain: Anime Legends Complete Collection Vol. 1

Mamoru Miyano, Kenta Miyake

Bandai, 2006

One of my all time favorites
Not much I can say that hasn't already been said about this masterpiece of an anime. Sure, people get confused by the fact this is only Part 1 of the Complete Collection, but I still loved this anime so much that I didn't mind having to buy both parts. If you don't ...

Dragon Ball Z - Bojack Unbound (Uncut)

Jôji Yanami, Masako Nozawa

Funimation Prod, 2004

Not the same as other movies.
I brought this movie and thought that it would be like the other ones but it was not. Don't get me wrong this is a great movie but I realzied some things they did that they didn't do in the other movies. First of all I was surprised to see Hurcules skin darker normaly ...

One Piece - Season 1, First Voyage (Uncut)

Mayumi Tanaka, Kazuya Nakai

Funimation Prod, 2008

Excellent, except for one major issue
Totally awesome show. I don't own the dvd and will explain why shortly. However I have seen every episode aired so far in japan via fansubs online. This show starts out good and stays good throughout. Now is the problem part. This show is almost 400 episodes long so ...

Wolf's Rain - Leader of the Pack (Vol. 1)

Arisa Ogasawara, Unshô Ishizuka

Bandai, 2004

Will Leave You Howling for More
Wolf's Rain is the best anime series I have seen since The Vision of Escaflowne. The story, animation, and production values are far superior to any anime series or movie to come down the pike in recent years. Wolf's Rain is deep and meaningful. Anything else pales ...
