Anime UK News writer & collector for anime, video games, Asian Cinema and manga! And yes, buying anime on Blu-ray is fun. I also have a blog called The Normanic Vault that I regularly update to cover any upcoming releases or unboxings.
Aiming to finish Witch Watch before starting other anime shows. Not had a proper look at the current season so will pick and choose which ones I'll check out in the coming days.

Since I watched the 80s version, I did prefer their take on the hunters who had a fun personality and added to the sci-fi wacky vibe, whereas in the 2025 version its not as memorable.

The humour I felt wasn't particularly great, though there were decent moments throughout.

There is an Asian Cinema package from Terracotta arriving later this month, and I've not ordered Radiance's Radical Japan box set yet but will be sorted soon (I don't see it selling out right away given the high print run and cost).

For video games, I have ordered a few more including one order from VideoGamesPlus which should be here before the month is over and we have a few LRG titles on their way in the coming weeks.

As for 5SOS's Everyone's a Star album. The tone of the singles was quite the whiplash, different to their earlier works but after I adjusted to it, songs had a cool vibe. In fact the album was great, loved a good majority of the tracks on first listen. Killer no filler approach with 12 tracks.

Let's start with TDWD's Flowers album. I really enjoyed their last album and the singles were decent. The rest of the album on first listen has some good tracks but I question whether I'll have them all on replay constantly, especially considering the singles were released for a while.

And then I visited the CeX store to find Mass Effect Legendary Edition in stock. I think this game has been going up in value from what I saw so I got a good deal on this. Played all three via the 360 version years back so looking forward to revisiting the franchise.
