It's still not dead!?!..Errr...I mean, Welcome back! This weeks show has thrills, spills, chills and that weird fluff you find between your toes after you've put on a new pair of socks....

On this weeeks show I review the manga Basilisk by the late Futaro Yamada and art by Masaki Segawa, the Playstation 2 game Yakuza and in the Retro Choice I review the OVA series Sohryuden or Legend of The Dragon Kings.

Anywho if you need to contact me with hints, questions, comments, requests for reviews and anything else then drop me a line @:

Basilisk is Samurai Action the way I like it. Nice Scenery, great characters and a boat-load of Ninja-action and hemoglobin. Just when Jubei thought he could retire as the baddest samurai, Gennosuke turns up looking for the toughest motherf*&^er around award.

The review of PS2 game Yakuza replaces an anime review that I started to review nut realised was too thin given the size of the series. I played Yakuza for about two or three days and thought it might be worth reviewing. Let me know if I should continue to review games or not.

Sohryuden was another anime that i watched on Channel 4 back in the day. I remember it being longer but time has refreshed my memory. It's a fairly decent anime but if I could be blunt it's a poor man's X. Only watch it if you've already seen X or you're bored of X. Anybody got any better alternatives let me know.

Promos This Week:

Opps Alert: To Grant I know I said I'd talk about dubs but I didn't have the time. Will do it for next show. Secondly the show notes are not complete. To be ammended.

Next week I'll be reviewing the manga Densha Otoko by Hitori Nakano, the TV series Kimagure Orange Road and the anime D.N.Angel.
