Fullmetal Alchemist - The Curse (Vol. 1)

What was it that compelled us to absorb this anime series so intently? Was it the clever use of believable physical laws for alchemy? Was it the unique world they inhabit, where alchemists are used by the military as living weapons? Was it the quest for the Philosopher's stone and the terrible secrets they discovered in the journey? Or, was it the unique relationship between the brothers and the real love they demonstrate for each other?

We're not sure, but combined, trust us, makes for one of the best anime series we've seen in a long, long time. A fantastic blend of action, drama and comedy, FullMetal starts strong and never lets go, with each episode ending as a cliff-hanger, you'll never stop watching!!!

Kino's Journey

Having been bitten by the motorcycle bug a few years back, I naturally hunger for any news or information that involves two-wheeled transport. One of the nice things about being a part of the motorcycle subculture is reading about, and partaking in roadtrips, often with no clear destination, just a trip just to enjoy the ride and take in the scenery.


One such anime seems to know the pleasure we riders feel and has catered to it. Kino's Journey is a roadtrip to nowhere, with great scenery, a sense of adventure and a ride that understands why riders ride. For those of you wanting bikini-clad babes piloting megaton mecha against gargantuan space armadas, you'll have to look elsewhere
