When creating a theatrical version of a beloved TV franchise, there are two routes to take. The first is to just stick the exact same thing with some prettied-up animation and plaster it on the big screen. Just look at any Shonen Jump franchise. The other is to remember that a film allows for many possibilities and create something a little more innovative. Two relevant examples of this are Tenchi Muyo in Love and the amazing Urusei Yatsura: Beautiful Dreamer. Those were movies that were unmistakably connected to their series yet used the theatrical format in a way to create something that can be an experience that stands well enough on its own while giving fans a chance to see their favorite characters in Tyranovision.

The Speakeasy - Drink #003 - Coconut Monkey, Can you feel the One Piece love?
I will mercifully refrain from singing modified lyrics to one of Elton John's contributions to the Lion King soundtrack and merely ask in written form why is there not as much love for One Piece in the U.S. (and most of the English speaking fandom) as there is in Japan. How does the number one shonen franchise in Japan become a third tier property here? We will be looking at One Piece's popularity in Japan, why it is so good, and what we think is holding it back. Let go on a voyage to find the answers to . . . One Piece!

[Review] When They Cry
[Review] When They Cry

It’s been about three weeks since I’ve seen the last episode of When They Cry, perhaps better known as Higurashi no Naku koro ni. The reason it’s taken so long to write this review is because I have no idea what to make of it. Standard horror show? No. Too many cutesy moments. Moe fluff? The writing is too smart. Deconstruction of moe fluff? Too pandering. A month and a few missed deadlines later and I’m still not sure.

[Editorial] Guys Who Shove the M in Manime

They’re everywhere. They are rays of hope for the pasty pale-skinned and sickly frail otaku that read the pages of Shonen Jump. Paragons to all those that have the XY chromosome: They are men. The type of men that make all other men look like they aren’t real men. They make Hulk Hogan look like your great grandmother. Yes, we’re talking about manly men.
[Review] Ghost Hunt

Ghost Hunt
Directed By: Rei Mano
Animation Production: JC Staff
Distributed By: FUNimation
Review By: Bradley Meek
Ghost hunters should have standards. Unexplained noise or bizarre accidents don’t necessarily mean there's a ghost in your house after all. Sometimes things that are unexplainable are just that: unexplainable. So it's nice to see that the characters in Ghost Hunt approach their cases in a way that's more Hercules Poirot than Scooby Doo or Madame Cleo.
