Samurai Champloo is a masterpiece when compared to the drivel that has been released in the past 5 years. The unique style, humor and fusion of hip hop makes it one of the wonders of anime to watch.

There are plenty of anime masterpieces that have come out in the past few years but it has been overshadowed by Naruto, Bleach and other marketable Pokemon type anime. :p

I would hardly call it a masterpiece it was good but not in the vault of awesomeness good.

My review of Appleseed Ex Machina:

I just watched this 1080p and the facial expressions and overall animation quality are THE best when it comes to 100% CGI animation. Unlike Appleseed, Ex Machina's quality is consistent.The plot is the normal action flick fanfare and being directed by John Woo ensures plenty of fantastic fights. However, I do have to dock off 2 points for dramatized voice acting and occasional cheesy cliches.

8/10; an exceptional example of how far CGI has come.

Is it still on the new filler?

btw what ep does the new filler start on? The last ep of Bleach I've seen was when Aizen and his crew were fighting against the shinigami on Earth.

I'm kinda interested in the filler because I've heard so many people say it's good :p

Spice and Wolf II ended. :(

Horo was too cute...

I can't wait to get the 1080p version of it when it hits the scene. Watching Spice and Wolf Season 1 in HD was amazing! I hope the story came to a good close. It was only one of the few anime series that had a consistently mature feel to it.

Hi,

- I found this week's Naruto fantastic. I don't remember reading this in the manga, well I remember the content was scattered in various chapters but this complete "Jiraia Gaiden" idea is great ! Or am I wrong and just totally forgot about that ? :s

Nope. I just found that post hilarious because it's considered an enhancement to add an anime character or voice actor to sell a product. What's even funnier is that it makes the Windows 7 box look like a terrible cartoon package rather than a professional operating system.

Oh, Japan...

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
