Currently Watching: Tenchi OAV


Okay well yesterday I did watch and screencap the Macross: Do You Remember Love? movie but since my tax return came in I've been investing in a few things one of them being the Tenchi OAV series. I don't mean the 3rd OAV from Funimation but the orignal OAV series released by Pioneer/Geneon. This is not the "signature series" release but the often hard to find shiny grey box version. I found a seller on Amazon who was willing to sell this used for a hefty but still reasonable price (hint: less than a Nintendo Wii). Keep in mind I do own the OAVs on VHS but given the fact that I upgraded the TV series, OAV Specials, Pretty Sammy series, movies, and new OAV to DVD this was the only glaring inconsistency in my collection. I was so insistent to get THIS version because of superior video quality and the Tenchi Encyclopedia disc (of course I know probably a few months later Funimation is going to FINALLY license rescue this show. They just did it with Trigun).

But since I got it used I'm checking the discs to make sure everything is kosher. I am impressed though because I ordered this on Amazon on Thursday and I have it now on Saturday night. The boxset is in near meant condition and looks no worse for wear than many of the DVDs in my own collection.

I'm not going to bother with a review since my bud, Astronerdboy, has covered this on his own website. He's also doing the newest Tenchi animation.

A Gameplan... Sort Of...

So when I started this blog I admit it was pretty much by accident. My intention was to follow a friend's blog and somehow wham bam and thank you maa'm I ended up with my own blog.

Instead of letting this piece of online slab go to waste I decided to make good use of it. You see I am an anime reviewer. You can read my latest review here.

Anyway I decided to use this blog to post my reviews and rant on the various manga, anime, cartoons, TV Shows, video games and whatever else I happen to be into at the moment.

So what's coming up is my inspiration for naming this blog: Protoculture.
Yes bitches! I'm going there get ready for it!

Chao!
