Anime-Beta TNG

I got mine at the tail-end of last week too, Robert does a great job at managing these kickstarter/smaller projects, everything arrived quick and safe! OnV was a show that I loved way back when I first got in to anime, and I thought it would never get a proper BD treatment. So happy to be proven wro...

Good luck getting them back! I've gone on a few hunts for things I've sold off in the past, found a few, but never the ones I'd be VERY interested in picking up again.

You have douga correct (though I tend towards doh-gah), but "genga" would be pronounced with a hard G. Think "Ken", but "Gen". You can feed the japanese into translate.google.com to get a pronunciation approximation. Click on the speaker icon on the japanese side of the...

Anything I back on kickstart, I'm prepared to never receive, I effectively treat is as disposable money/income. It's a very negative viewpoint, but it lets me sit back and not worry about individual projects. I've backed 17 projects so far, and received somewhere around 4. The projects I tend to bac...

Didn't see this before the con, whoops! There was at least one cel dealer there, who dealt primarily in US art. He had a few older anime cels (Guyver I think), but the majority of it was 70s-80s US stuff. There were some nice Winnie the Pooh things he had, including a rough sketch for some product, ...

I have a few examples of this, but the only one really worth mentioning is:


Revolutionary Girl Utena Episode 3 - Touga at the Ball (Final version)
Revolutionary Girl Utena Episode 3 - Touga at the Ball (Tux version, not used)

Jeebus, simultaneous unlucky AND lucky! Sucks that the pipe burst, but it's awesome that nothing important got damaged!

The bots hit my WoW guilds phpBB forum back in Feb. Recaptcha no longer was effective at keeping them out. I ended up switching from self-activated accounts to admin activated, since we hadn't had a valid NEW user in many months. I get lots of emails saying "<spammername> has registered!",...

Oooo, nice Memories cel. I keep an eye out every so often for them, I've only seen a few Magnetic Rose sequences pop up with any regularity. There was one on mandarake not that long ago, I really, REALLY wish I hadn't forgotten about it and missed the ending!

They also updated their auction website interface for the first time in at least a decade. Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out how to get the Big Web Auction items AND only Cels. Can anyone figure it out? http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemsListEn.html?s=14&from=20140401&to=...

VHS Tapes do not have region coding. There _ARE_ regional differences, but the differences between Japan and the US are very minimal, if any at all. I know that DVDs have a black level difference (JP uses 0-255, US uses 16-255), but I do not believe that these differences existed in VHS tapes. The r...

I would guess he interpreted the A7 sequence marker of his cel to indicate there were only 7 cels in that sequence. Without having seen the the exact sequence, it's hard to say whether there are more than 7 cels in it. Given that it's not marked A7e, I'd guess that there are more, but who knows. He'...

Horray, I got one! But next time, please make it not end at 4am eastern x_x

1) All biddings will be removed 3 minute before the finishing time. An item is re-listed automatically. However it means the latest top bidder won. Don't be worry. He contacts with a winner directly. So see the final moment of the auction. 2) Sometimes, he contacts directly before an auction finish...

Some great items in your listings, I think I'll have to go after at least one!
