Toonami Jetstream launched today, three days early. I was really looking forward to it because I wanted to check out the dub for Prince of Tennis. It’s only available in the United States, but I mean when you think about it, if the show were airing on Toonami itself then people outside the US wouldn’t be able to see it either. It all has to do with licensing and stuff like that and people are making much too big of a deal out of it… besides if you know where to look you can find them ripped (at least PoT). (more…)

Manga Shopping, Shojo Beat and Angel Diary 3 June 26, 2006

I went to Borders today and bought the July issue of Shojo Beat, Angel Diary 3, Bleach 13, Kaze Hikaru 2 and the Blood novel (maybe there’s more then one? I got the first one I saw). It was really crowded and there were a whole bunch of kids in the manga section. The lady at the cash register was the same person who was there the last time I bought a bunch of manga, which was only two weeks ago, it was kind of embarrassing. She said she was up to episode 62 of Bleach, I told her I stopped watching it when the fillers started (which was around then actually I think). She also mentioned that it was coming to Adult Swim but that it wouldn’t be the same because it was dubbed and I told her that I already knew and that I was really looking forward to it. Oh and when I was looking at the manga I saw that Viz is changing some of their spines. I noticed it on volume 8 of Fullmetal Alchemist, ack it’s like the biggest, ugliest V I’ve ever seen in my life. It made me want to buy that volume even less; they’ve changed the way FMA looks twice now.
