FUNimation is good enough for me(One Piece,Guilty Crown), but I never tried their pay service. Do they offer HD stream for OP, Guilty Crown and all the new shows?


One Piece, no. But I assume if you get Hulu Plus, episodes 493+ are. And if 207 and up ever get on there they will be too.

I'm pretty sure Guilty Crown is in HD though.

I bought Loups=Garous based on the storyline and watched it just over a week ago with a couple of friends. Looking at the cover design, I too thought the character displayed (Ayumi) was female (one doesn't usually expect males to be wearing leggings). We were all a little surprised when the character was portrayed as male. The movie would have benefited if the character was left as female. I thought the movie had an interesting take on certain aspects of modern society (I don't know how many times I've been on a bus or in a room where the majority of people were staring down playing with their phones). I think the movie had some potential, but went off in so many directions that it became something that didn't know which route to take. I was certainly expecting a much darker story than what it turned out to be, and the band sub-plot was a forced annoyance.

Interesting interview with the AOD staff members. I haven't watched AOD myself, but it was neat getting a little peek behind the scenes.

if you thought those points in the movie were interesting and you like to read then you definitely need to check out the novel. the novel is even available in English, as Viz released it under their HaikaSoru imprint. the book is pretty thick and gets pretty deep and the movie did suffer from trying to stuff all of that novel into a movie of that length (especially with the extra stuff they stuck in, especially the band sub-plot).
