Hmm... makes me wonder, if that 'download' was perhaps a leak and that it wasn't supposed to be released a couple of days ago? I mean, the 'release date' did literally came out of the blue. I really wouldn't be surprised. I'm guessing it's already been tried, but if not, how about trying it with th...

I currently have *zero* Astro items. :whistling: I figured I would wait to collect the manga after I get better at Japanese, then buy Japanese copies. And I figured I wo...

I haven't watched the two other movies yet. Belladonna is usually considered the best of the bunch, unfort...
