anime news: September 2006 Archives
If you feel guilty sneaking around, downloading those illegal fansubs, you can now join ADV Films' 'Digital Universe' website and download all you can... for a fee.
Still in its infancy, the site offers about a dozen different series to download, and for a limited time you can even get one "Guyver" episode for free!
According to the website, all episodes are DVD quality or better, and you will need Windows Media Player to watch them. If you have a Mac you might get away with just using the free plug-in for QT, flip4mac, to play your "PC files", however, the files are encrypted so there's a chance you might not.
Now that you know, quit that Bittorrent and your Limewire, and start paying for some of your Anime.
If you can't get enough of Fullmetal Alchemist, rejoice!.

Destineer's Fullmetal Alchemist: Dual Sympathy game for Nintendo DS is scheduled to ship this fall.
Aside from being able to play as Edward or Alphonse Elric, Roy Mustang, Alex Louis Armstrong, Izumi or Scar and stealing moves, the game will also include voice-overs from the English version of the series as well as cinematic scenes to keep things authentic. More than 10 touch screen mini-games have also been added between the main battles just in case you start to get bored.
Destineer is known for publishing titles such as Age of Empires III, Halo for the Mac, Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45, and Starship Troopers.
So, before you run to the store and get your new 'Tickle me Elmo' you might want to check this out.
For those of you who are fans of this series be glad to know that Bleach the Movie will be airing in Japan this December.

Although little is know about the plot various trailers have made it to youtube and other websites. If you can read Japanese you can also pay a little visit to http://www.bleach-movie.com/ , the official site, and maybe you can get a little extra info.
Rumors are that the movie will only be an hour long, which in my view makes more of a 'special' than a movie. Nevertheless I'll be surfing the web to try and get a peak at this movie.
For those of you in the know, I'm sure you will find a way to watch it, probably the same day it airs in Japan.
