Great animation, the plot moves a good pace that keeps the action coming, and almost every character and creature that appears helps out and make themselves useful. Too bad it has a lousy dub's (as usual)

on Lady Tsunade who is in line to become the 5th Hokage, if she can get over her well known losers streak when it comes to gambling and skipping out on her debts. She's one heck of a fighter but has a slight issue with the sight of blood and this in explained and all other things about her dark and storied past. It makes for a great addition to this series along with her and Master Jiraiya's battle with the ever evil and seriously wacked out Orochimaru who's still got an issue or two with a few people.

Its heck of a battle as she fights to save Naruto who's had his own battle with Orochimaru's flunkee Kabuto (talks 2 much for me). Excellent volume and leaves off on a good note for the start of the next volume, well worth your money and minus an episode or two that could've ... Read More

Although she is quite tough and excels in sports such as basketball, Hyuga Ami is a normal high school girl. However, there is one aspect to her that is a bit different than other girls, her parents committed suicide after being accused of murder. With this dark cloud hanging over her head, Ami fights to get by each day with the support of her younger brother Yu. Yet, there is a major problem. Yu, along with his chunky, bespectacled friend Takeshi, are the targets of a vicious gang of school bullies led by Kimura Sho, the son of a powerful yakuza and scion of the Hattori Hanzo clan, the name of a historical samurai and a name that should be familiar to all fans of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill films. Going beyond the normal bullying and extortion, Kimura and his gang kill Yu and Takeshi. Ami, unable ... Read More

There is a reason Dragonball Z is one the world's most favorite animes. The series is awesome. The only problem with this DVD is that it stops way too short. For those looking to see the end of cell, sorry that is Season 6. Regardless, this series is the best.

One of the greatest shows that Nickelodeon had to offer. Our hero (or villian?) Zim tries feebely to take over our planet for his species but is foiled in a hilaious off-beat way by his child arch-enemy, Dib. With a slap-stick and obsurd humor that this series produced, it's a shame it only ran three seasons. This box set has all 29 episodes and is well worth the investment if you enjoyed anything that Jhonen Vasquez has done in the past.

Beautiful art, easy to interpret but meaningful story, likable characters, and a certain magic and love to it, yup this is a Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli film. The soundtrack tot he movie is also fantastic. The only problems are that the Miyazaki DVDs have been pretty lackluster in extra features, and the Disney version of the DVD has new, irritating, voices that are in no way as good as the original. Go check out the other version offered here on Amazon: My Neighbor Totoro (Full Screen Edition) by 20th Century Fox rather than Disney, it has the original voices. Fantastic movie that people of all ages should love, remember, and cherish.

The first thing I thought when I saw the box for this dvd was, Who the heck is Garlic Jr? I have read all the manga books and I never saw him once. So far this series had given us much filler, scenes that were slighlty longer than need to be but this is an entire saga of filler. Not only that but it creates some weird backstory about how Gohan and Goku defeated Garlic Jr. and sealed him in the dead zone. Did I miss something? When did this happen? I have seen all the Dvd sets up to now I have tried to think of a time period it could have happened but I am stumped. Gohan and Goku were never together long enough to fight anything except on Namek and this epic fight occured on earth. Did Trunks mysterious time travelling create yet another timeline? Eh, I won't lose sleep over it.

Once I opened ... Read More

I was a little unsure of what to expect from the title of this movie, but it certainly wasn't about a princess. The plot of this film was very good. I have yet to watch it with subtitles and I expect that it will be much better with them. Billy Bob Thornton is terrible, plain and simple. Minnie Driver seems out of place in her role as well. Let's face it, the English voiceovers completely lack conviction. At least some of the other anime films with English dubs that I have seen sound like they actually give a crap about what they are doing. The main character, however was excellently voiced IMO.
As far as the plot goes, it is excellent. You may want to read up on some Japanese tradition/legends before watching as most westerners brush off a plot about nature as hippie rubbish. This film has a good message ... Read More
