I'm getting quite excited for the Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works movie. Its due at the end of the month and the animation looks really top notch. I really enjoyed the scenario in the visual novel and I just wonder how it'll go about in the film. One thing for sure is I'd like to see UBW used in greater detail than it was in the anime.

eBay?
If eBay isn't your thing, I know a couple of places I could e-mail for you.
Bleach is a pretty good series, but I'm not into filler stuff and apparently Bleach has a lot, so I'll just stick with the manga.
Just got all my anime and manga returned that I lent out, so I can finally take the photo I promised

nah nkbswe5, despite what the pics show, none of those seller have the boxset collections; they're basically just a middleman and order stuff they sell from madman as required, so if i madman don't have it, they won't either.
i have been emailing a few places to see if they had stock, but i haven't had any luck so far; if you could email your sources, it'd be much appreciated.
also, i never said thanks for the good price you gave me on those bleach dvds, or for dropping them of to me, so i better rectify that : "thanks very much, it's much appreciated"

Fair enough. Guess all I can think of is Minotaur in the city who may have it in stock since they are overpriced, and ShinTokyo, who also generally just order from Madman, but they have a store so you could e-mail them asking if they have it in-store still
OK, PICTURES!
Note that I used funky 'Panorama' app on my iPhone, which is why some things may seem distorted, or just fail (example: Muhyo and Roji volume 7 annd 11 have magically dissapeared. Well, most of 7  )

I recently started watching Chaos;Head after hearing a lot about it from someone I met at an anime convention. Its very interesting, but also very confusing at the same time.

jeez that collection is huuuuge nkbswe5. my prized manga is negima collection which i only have v1-22, and you have 1-24 
also has anyone read the manga for school days? i have seen the anime and i am just wondering if the manga is better or worse (in your opinion)
also shinhawk i have seen chaos;head, it is interesting and a bit weird but just stick in there as i enjoyed it a lot
Animes i have watched lately is only Ikkitousen Season 2 (dragon destiny? is it called) i found it funny but it was a bit boring...
oh btw does anyone other than me loove shakugan no shana. I really enjoyed it and told some friends to watch it and they all gave up half way through saying it was boring...

I'm a big fan of shakugan no shana 
In fact, I'm such a tsundere fan that I've watched Toradora, Zero no Tsukaima, Hayate no Gotoku of the same tsundere seiyuu
Lastest tsundere series I watched was Bakemonogatari.
Different people do have different liking. For instance, I like Shaft production ef - a tale of memories/melodies series and I'm pretty sure not many would.
As for School Days, I believe that the TV anime is based on the eroge rather than the manga. I havent really came across the manga to have a read yet but if you like the anime, and with the manga spanning only 2 volumes, it's not much of a risk if it turns out to be similar to the anime.

Apparently I've been told we have Fate Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works at my work, when I get back to the office I'm going to have to borrow that and see what the fuss is all about. 
This one is for you shinhawk, you being such a Fate Stay fan.

I love onepiece. It's a rollercoaster of emotion and adventure, that keeps you coming back for more.
Although I don't like having to wait months for the Strong World movie to be subbed. That looks even more epic than the last 9 movies they made.

I've been slowly but surely making my way through Bleach. I'm watching episode 165 right now, so only ~100 more until I'm up-to-date! Really enjoying it, hope I see more of Kenpachi soon, he's so awesome
That said, the Bounto arc definitely tested my resolve! Hopefully there isn't another big filler arc like that one

Oh boy, don't look now. On the positive side, I'd have to say the Bounto arc is one of the better pieces of filler I've seen in an anime, but unfortunately there's more where it came from. Don't let it put you off though, it's a great anime.

My work is considering licensing it for local release, so we were sent a screener from the Japanese licensors.
I just watched it, it's not bad. Basically it's the TV series compressed into a movie it does feel like it's chopped up and pieced back together with a few extra scenes as the glueing agent (it's like flashing to all the major scenes in the TV series quickly). It is nicely animated though but that was expected since it's a movie.
It focuses more the relationship between Emiya and Archer. If you're a Saber fan ... well she's in ut but not as much as she was so prominent in the tv series but there small fan service scene.
Because it focuses mostly on Archer (hence the title Unlimited Blade Works) Archer and Rin take more of a larger role (compared to the TV series) but Emiya is still the main character.
Fans will probably like it, but for those who don't really follow Fate Stay Night might find it a bit hard to follow because it's quite disjointed. I personally didn't mind it since I knew all the back story anyway.
Oh on a side note, watched the Professor Layton anime movie (Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva), wasn't bad, the characters were pretty faithful to their videogame counter parts. Almost feels like Miyazaki's Laputa Castle In The Sky.

It's really bad. I wouldn't hold my breath for it. In fact if you loved the game, don't watch. Good advice, follow it.

I've just recently started to watch Megaman NT Warrior and really like it.
I doubt many here would like it, but I'm wondering if anyone watches it and knows where you can the rest of the series from? As I only have the first 2 Volumes.

I just discovered that FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood has JUST started making it's episodes English Dubbed, so far the first 3 have aired in america.
ALSO, Macka got me to watch Bleach... and I've just reached the Bounto saga... and it's completely thrown me off... I'm not quitting Bleach, but i'm finding it hard to watch more than one episode a day... and with about 200 episodes to catch up on, it's not going to be fun. Is there like, a definitive list of episodes that I could skip with no consequence, Cause Macka also mentioned you get alot of bountiful backstory for characters.. so I need to know only what is absolutely necessary for me to get the as much character development, without the hassle of the horrible HORRIBLE fillers. Just to clarify, I can't stand ANY fillers... at all.

After a long break, I've gotten back into anime and marathoned a couple of series over the last few days.
Gurren Lagann - It started off kind of slow, but after episode 7 it really picked up. The story was pretty good and most of the characters were likeable. I'm not huge on Mecha anime, but this one managed to hold my interest. The main character is pretty damn awesome too. SPIN ON!
Eden of the East - Loved this anime. I haven't watched the two movies yet, but the production values for the series were through the roof. I loved the "realistic" art style of the show, everything was so detailed. The story is excellent, with great suspense and humour throughout the series. Can't wait to watch the movies now!
Apart from that, I need to catch up on Bleach. I've only seen up to 250, so I have like 20 episodes to watch. I've also watched the first episode of Black Lagoon, it was alright. Hopefully it picks up as the series progresses.

I don't watch much Anime because I am very picky with my Anime.I practically won't watch any Anime with guns or mechs.
The few Anime's I have watched throroughly are DB/DBZ/DBGT, Tenjho Tenge, Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X, FMA.
I read about Soul Eater in the Playstation mag and it sounds good.
I watched 4 episodes of Death Note but it wasn't what I expected.I expected the main character to be more of a hero than a guy that ends up basically being just another psychopath with what he thinks are morals.
