Yeah, by buying bootlegs you're just supporting pirates. You're better off downloading the bootleg online, which is even easier. The copy I linked to is legit, but yeah it is region locked, hence why I mentioned the need for AnyDVD (which isn't free, but totally worth it). Even AnyDVD also has free ...

I have to wonder if it would be even cheaper using Madman's site. Their help pages don't really help, they just say to proceed to checkout to see how much the shipping would cost to the buyer's area.

You can buy a legit copy of it here for really cheap: http://dvd.jsdvd.com/product_info.php?products_id=8425&language=us (be warned that the shipping doubles the price.) It never got a DVD release in Japan, but the Taiwan DVD is really good. I've actually improved the subtitle file from the bootleg ...

I would SOOOOOO go see a Princess Knight movie! :wub: That might be happening pretty soon actually. And not in CG which is, well, great. Oh and about the petition, it is really pointless. In fact its sole purpose right now is to confirm to Hollywood how few people want a sequel. You'd need about a ...

Ah yes, the ending to Astro Boy Omega Factor. I had to get away from the GBA for a few minutes halfway through cause my eyes were too wet for me to keep reading. >_> Oh geez, I'm such a crybaby.

In the manga chapter "Baro, the robot." After going back in time and Astro feeling terribly alone from being the only intelligent robot to exist, eventually one gets created, and Tezuka makes us go through an amazing emotion curve... First we see Astro at his happiest, skipping and singing that he f...

Eh, you have to remember virtually everyone in the world knows English now. The folks in Japan were probably glad to see English text in there, so that children would get some practice. English text was also common in all Astro Boy anime. And yep I've seen that picture many times, as I always stay t...

They should stream the subtitled Japanese dub as well. I appreciate efforts to stream anime for free, but only offering the English dub makes the series look bad.

Anyway, I don't know why Tezuka chose to draw Astro like this. Maybe because it helps so the robot side of him I think it's a combination of that, as well that it was easy to draw, makes for a cool & cute design considering Tezuka's cartoonish body proportions, and the Japanese don't go all up in a...
