    What anime are you watching/gonna watch this season?

    It's one of my favourite manga and, while I'm still looking forward to it, I'm a little disappointed they altered the protagonist to fit the current trend. The vulnerable straight-laced 'lovable nerd' (and oft-unwitting harem-master) stereotype is fine, and I realise the original was a product...

    What anime are you watching/gonna watch this season?

    I recently finished "Aldnoah.Zero", "Zankyo no Terror" and "Barakamon". Been meaning to watch the rest of "Psycho Pass: New Edit" before series 2. I believe I've only got as far as episode 5. ~Edit: Somehow managed to forget "Log Horizon" Series 2. I need sleep...~ Started "Love Stage"...

    Help me find an anime

    Good animé that is completely devoid of any and all fanservice might be a little difficult. First series that come to mind are "Hanasaku Iroha" (which I think is likely to be precisely what you are looking for), "Nagi no Asakura", and "K-On". Maybe "Non Non Byori"? "Toradora" is one of my...

    Batman v Superman's Batmobile Shown Off in New Pics

    Normally the 'rule of cool' would supersede the impracticality of something like the cockpit's split hatch but in my eyes it looks too silly for the rule to apply. Also the front end looks like a severely overweight bat clutching a pair of enormous Oreos and I can't un-see it. What's left...

    The Fantastic Four Reboot is Doomed

    *Clicks thinking the article is going to be one thing* *Sees that it's not anything of the sort (and a terrible pun)* *Swears profusely* It's always amusing when a fan can cobble together a better looking costume in their spare time.

    Xenoblade Chronicles' Shulk Joins Super Smash Bros

    With the majority unfamiliar with Xenoblade Chronicles I have no doubt he shall be forever known as 'The British Guy'. His voice actor's performance is a little off (annoying even) though I think it's probably not any worse than the American voice actors, it's just everyone's gotten used to...

    Rumor: Marvel Prepping Jean Grey Solo Series

    You might want to take another crack at this sentence :P OT: My immediate reaction was: why her? Depending on the version I can go from liking Jean to outright loathing her and there are a number of other female X-men I would want given the chance before I'd even consider Jean. Of course...

    Dr Who Deep Breath

    I must admit I misinterpreted what you wrote; I thought you were still talking about Torchwood. I was aware it's a fairly common rumour. I have no difficulty believing a fair percentage rely on certain substances to get them through the day but "pretty much everyone"? I find that harder to...

    Dr Who Deep Breath

    Believe me I'm under no illusions as to what this country is like but I'm not sure why you think everyone's attitude's are completely changed by what variety of twonks are in power. Also a more right wing government? Is that an allusion to UKIP or do you believe that a reinstated Conservative...

    Dr Who Deep Breath

    Not familiar with the episode your talking about but she was definitely part of the Green Wing cast (not just one episode). Certainly having Lesbians in a kids show would ruffle the feathers of certain circles but what do you mean "pushing at things"? Also: Torchwood was an 'adult' show? :P

    Dr Who Deep Breath

    I'll echo everyone else and say the CGI was terrible. The dinosaur being notably egregious by it's superfluity. I wasn't especially disappointed by the overall plot since a regeneration's first episode is always fifty percent 'getting to know the new doctor' but I don't think it was a...

    Watch the Beginning of the New TMNT's Final Fight With Shredder

    I think Mikey's design looks the most sensible, though that might be only by comparison to the others. Raph looks like some sort of reptilian gorilla-man, Leo's proportions look all kinds of weird and his shoulder-pads exacerbate the problem, and Donny appears to have received a liposuction...

    Vanilla Ice Dislikes Rap Song for New TMNT Movie

    This is the second time that I've listened to this now (I believe the first was also an embedded video in a news article on this website) and, while I still wouldn't be particularly fond of it, I think if you were to remove 00:31~00:58 it would be much more bearable. I can't say I know who...

    Super Smash Bros. 4's New Challengers Are Fire Emblem's Robin And Lucina

    A number of people have suggested (and I agree) that Zero Suit Samus is pretty much a stand in for Bayonetta. She might have been okay for Japan, maybe even Europe, but a large section of America would have lost its shit at the thought of such a character appearing in a game that's meant to be...

    Danger Mouse Remake Will Include Gender Swapped Characters

    It's been a very long time since I watched an episode of DangerMouse and I can't remember there being ANY female characters before, were there? Hate to be a pedant (well, not really), but why is it that so few understand that Gender =/= Sexual designation?
