About Us
Import-Anime was created in 2002 by fans, for fans. We're here because you guys need a good
place to come and check out reviews of Hong Kong anime titles before you buy them, and who better to
review the titles then your fellow fans? So come by, check out the reviews, and post a few of your own.
We're also the place where you can pick up your favorite Anime Studio and MAC titles at some of
the best prices around. We offer flat rate shipping, free DVD's, and top-notch customer service. We
also have a thriving, ever-growing community of friends and anime fans on both our message boards and
our IRC channel. Our little community has some of the friendliest and most enthusiastic HK
enthusiasts around. We're not the biggest board on the net, but we certainly do have some unique
characters lurking around! Be sure to check our suggestions board, and if you want to order a title that
we don't have, post a request in the thread! If you have some anime lying around that you don't
need, be sure to make a topic on our trade board, and see if one of the other users might want to take
it off of your hands. Look for a lot of great things happening in the coming year, including a new
shopping cart system, the re-introduction of MI, AV, and FX titles, and some new monthly feature
articles!
Your Hosts:
JunkieJoe is your friendly neighborhood website owner. He's the man who's
ordering your
DVD's, giving you discounts, and running the show. He lives somewhere in Canada, hopefully far
away
from the wild bears, mooses, and those mountie police who ride horses around.
Schultz handles the coding of the site from his home in Okinawa, Japan.
He's a great
guy
and also happens to own more R1 anime than anyone who doesn't own a store. This man actually
owns
all the Dragon Ball Z releases. Fear the man who has this much disposable cash! He's online at
odd
times, living in the land of the rising sun and all. Post any sort of bug fixes and suggestions
and
he'll fix things up in a hurry for ya.
Rei is the man who makes sure you can post your reviews. He searches for
all of the
new
releases as they come out and posts them for your reviewing pleasure. He's also a starving
college
student from NY in his spare time, so send mass quantities of ramen and coke!
Zagatto comes to us from the fine country of Canada as well.. He's
originally from the US, so it's my theory that he just got lost up there and decided to settle down.
When he's not taking care of his new baby, he's helping out with adding the titles to the DVD database.
He also happens to write some of the finest user reviews that this site has to offer.
Shibo is nothing short of the most attractive human being in the galaxy.
He's also writing this entire section, which means that everything he says should be taken as gospel. ;)
You'll find me lurking around the boards and the IRC channel, modding as necessary, and
buying/watching way too much anime. I'm in the great state of Colorado, land of sweltering heat
and 3 foot snowstorms.
