Anime

Buy The DVD!

Even if you already have the fansub, hot from the Japanese TV broadcast, there are often very good reasons to buy the DVD.

1 Sadly, Magipoka hasn't been licensed for region 1 yet. I certainly intend to get it when it is, however.

2 Having watched Magipoka, I'd rate its licensing chances as slim to
none. Although, slim to none shows are occasionally picked up,
so I suppose anything's possible. It's a very strange show...
lots of Japanese humor and cultural references galore, and no real
point to speak of. ADV's made a habit of licensing similar shows
as of late (don't know how that experiment will turn out, to be
honest), so I could see them possibly taking a chance on it.
MediaFactory has been pretty proactive courting licensors, it seems...
I could see the Magipoka license being the lesser half of a package
deal.

3 A lot of things that I thought would never get licensed... got licensed, but part of that was the licensing spree that certain companies went on a couple of years back. It looks like were back to pre-spree levels now, and that might leave Magipoka stranded. Which would be sad, because it's quite an enjoyable show.

4 There were a helluva lot of fortuitously placed lense flares and steam clouds in that show.
The Engrish "speak or dare" episode was pretty damn funny. However, I must have missed some key piece of information, because I was completely confused by the invisible apparition that was taking part in their game.

5 I'm thinking about importing R2 Mahoraba, once I'm done acquiring Kamichu. I think I'm about to transcend the R1 DVD barrier. Magipoka though... It doesn't seem to tickle my fancy enough.

6 I never finished watching Mahoraba, though it too is fairly likeable. It's another one that would have been an automatic license a couple of years ago, but now looks to get left on the shelf.

There's hope: Jungle Guu got licensed, as did Nanaka 6/17, Midori no Hibi, Kamichu, heck, even Coyote Ragtime Show.

7 Fan Service comedies have a reasonably large potential base audience irrespective of show quality, and that may be what convinces someone to license it for R1. I hope. (I'm part of that base audience.)

8 I haven't been up to anything recently, but so it goes. Such is life. What can I say? Pretty much not much exciting going on to speak of. I haven't gotten much done lately, but I don't care.
