Too bad about Shattered Angels. I read a synopsis about it which sounded pretty good, so I bought vol. 1. I enjoyed it. It fills my fanservice quota and the story wasn't that difficult to follow. I especially liked the two bonus mini episodes that(especially the second one) fleshed out more background of four of the characters. Plus, at only 3 volumes, it won't be a costly show to collect either.

Not that this has much to do with anything, but in the Honey & Clover movie, there's a scene at the art show where they're walking through some sculptures...and all of a sudden there's this giant thing that looks EXACTLY like the logo for Rogue's Dead Guy Ale. Check out the logo here. Craziness.
Honey & Clover is a fantastic show, and I would recommend it to anybody. Thanks, Viz! |

I'm a bit surprised at the hate for Shattered Angels. I really didn't find the story to be all that confusing at all, myself. There's a lot of potentially confusing plot packed into a short anime, but I didn't have any trouble following it or remembering it from episode to episode. It's true that it leaves a lot of blanks as far as figuring out what's actually going on at the beginning, but that's not exactly unique for an anime storyline, and all is explained in time.
Personally, I didn't think it was on the same level as Kannazuki no Miko, but very few series that I've seen are, as far as I'm concerned. I'd definitely put it in the "worth recommending" pile. |

As a fan of the Honey & Clover anime I have to say I really disliked the live action movie. It changed way too many things. While I realize it is hard to condense an entire series into a 2 hour movie, my main gripe is not the changes in the plot but how character personalities were completely different (especially Morita).
Well I hope the live action movie sells well so maybe Viz will finally release the anime on DVD. |

I'm pretty sure that's 3 small pictures spliced together, hence the fish-eye look. And hey- I'm not the only one who bought Burst Angel used from a Gamestop!  (Mine was having a 3 for $10 sale at the time.)

I don't really get all the hate for Shuffle! I really like the series, it's not perfect but then again nothing is. I like the series cause it's fun to watch.

What a haphazardly arranged collection of DVDs. And he has Sailor Moon R.

The best part for me in the Honey and Clover live action movie was spoiler[the soy sauce dragon].
Hmmm, some many VHS, yet I see one the photo doesn't have >=D Last edited by belvadeer on Wed Oct 07, 2009 2:34 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I figured Bamboo must have had a special reason to keep reviewing each volume of Shuffle when it kept being considered perishable. Sometimes it's fun to watch something bad.

He does get +5 awesome points for the Beerfest and Munich dvds though. I was surprised to see the Sailor Victory dvd there as well.
What can I say, I love cheesiness. I suppose I'll get even more of it when my Netflix rentals of Shattered Angels vols 1 & 2 get here sometime next week.  |
