^Exactly. It seem as if they make new versions of the previous released movie by adding extra footage for a DVD version. Pretty neat though because then you'd want to buy the X.XX DVD even though you've seen version X in theaters.

Also, I've just seen the latest episode of FMA:B and lots of things happened. I'm guessing that Alphonse has actually regained his own body which is why he's not in his armor. The ending of the episode was also pretty insane with Mustang being at the end of his rope, unable to lose even more people he loves. Though his one option of saving the one who protected his back for so long is a cruel option. Dreadful things are bound to happen in the next episode.

I honestly can't imagine how this anime is going to turn out. Which is a good thing as it'll keep surprising us with each episode that comes out (Y) :D

I'm having a hard time remembering if this is how the Manga went at this part as well, but I just don't really remember the original Homonculi looking all blobby and having hohenhiem trapped like that....

About alphonse, if they are still sticking with the manga, hes not gone just yet, but if you have read the latest manga *cries*

Nodame Cantabile. An anime series that bases itself on the scenes from the manga and accompanied with great snippets of classical music. However, I am VERY surprised that they don't show Nodame and Chiaki's relationship. It's simply passed off like some cheap, josei romance instead of fulfilling, satisfying ending that both have after enduring a lot of personal struggles and decisions. I'm tempted to give this a 6.5/10 for brushing the "serious" side of the manga but I have to give it an 8 because it's one of the only mature twenty something love stories that have a lot of intelligence and talent backing each character unlike the horrific wrecks of sudden illness/death/drama/accident/suicide/pregnancy in every shoujo, josei and seinen manga. Hurray for Nodame Cantabile!

Fun note: The OP and ED of the second and third season are pathetic compared to the first season's.

Strong opinion: Nodame Cantabile >>>>>> Honey and Clover any day of the week. It's rare for a guy like to enjoy a romance show that doesn't castrate the men and make them eunuchs and mother lovers like in H&C. That anime series was more of a wet dream of some naive, young girl who enjoys harems while acting insecure with bishoujo characters chasing after psycho women.

They should have shown Chiaki proposing and his struggle with his life decisions because of his lack of a central father figure! The anime series cut off more than 500 manga pages worth of material to squash everything into 11 episodes and two OVA's. Hehe, if this series portrayed the realistic outcome of Chiaki and Nodame, Chiaki would be a divorced playboy by the age of 40, more akin to his father and Streismann. MUKYA!

You have achieved Shounen anime nirvana. XD I think Dragon Ball is better simply because it has men groaning in completely inappropriate ways in several languages, including Japanese.

Now go read One Piece and enjoy the thrilling ride. It has a more fluid story with a better cast and even better enemies. I read Bleach until chapter 250 something and was confused on how the male lead goes from nothing to suddenly appearing out of nowhere and stabbing a guy trying to hurt a girl on the edge of a cliff. It then made me even more confused when it started putting all the "good" guys in some weird fun house in the middle of a desert and battle completely random enemies that the mangaka was pulling from left field.

It's a well translated subtitle though because that is indeed what he says in the manga about one of the female characters.

Lol, thats great. How many anime have used that line before though? Almost all. Love that silly nonsense crap lol.

New Bleach Manga at Beach Exile..... after I read it, ill post if i find Naruto Manga up early as well.

K, just finished, GREAT CHAPTER!!! The action, the ending, just great. Thought this fight would be stale, but they are making it interesting.... damn it was so short.

Naruto Shippuuden on same page, great chapter as well. Next chapter might be the "o ****" we been waiting for.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear

      By Zeromus2003 · Posted

      I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).

    • Windows 11 in 2026: Are you fully on board, or still holding back?

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.

      For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
