EZDVD Casing Photos Anyone? |

I have a feeling a few others are curious about this as well. As far as I've heard, the EZDVD remakes of currently released FX titles (Hellsing, Lain, Naruto, etc) are going to be in semiclear plastic casings like some of the last released FX stuff (my Mahoromatic and Someday's Dreamers sets are in clear plastic cases). I was hoping someone who has bought the new EZDVD stuff (or perhaps JunkieJoe.. hehe.) could take a few pictures to let us know what it looks like, inside and out.
I'm quite partial to the cases that FX makes with all their pictures (I think the Naruto sets 1-4 look awesome) and to hear they got shut out was saddening, especially for series that still need to finish such as my Naruto. =/ I'm starting to get impatient and I'm questioning whether I should switch over and buy Part 5 from the other HK companies (whatever company produces it). I actually welcome the plastic cases seeing as how they still stick to the same FX art.
So in short, here's my questions:
1) Could someone post detailed pictures of what the new EZDVD sets look like? If it's not too much to ask... maybe from JunkieJoe? =P
2) If pictures can't be posted, do the FX covers and layouts stay the same on the newer EZDVD cases? Pictures, text and whatnot.
3) Any idea if EZDVD will come out with a Naruto Part 5 or other new animes? I'm pretty sure the answers "no idea", but it doesn't hurt to ask. =)
Thanks.

I'm sure this has been done probably a million times, but I figured I'd ask what kind of music artists you like. I really need some new stuff myself, so any suggestions would be nice along the MxPx line or similar would be nice :p .

NEW Guyver anime in Japan |

I couldn't believe it as I haphazardly walked into this info. There is a new Guyver series to be aired this summer in Japan. For those of you that don't know the guyver started in the mid 80's as a Manga that is still going today and has reached 22 volumes. (Similar to Berserk in this way).
It tells the story of 17 year old High School student Sho Fukamachi who accidentally activates a Unit-G and is transformed into a biological armoured weapon. But the organization known as "Kronos" wants to get the unit back from Sho, and he is pitted into battle against mutating bio-weapons called "Zoanoids".
Up to now there has been a 1 part OVA during the 80's that seemed to take ALOT of liberties and just make up its own story. And there has been 2 6 part OVA series that follow on from each other. Although the 12 part series does a reasonable job of telling the Guyver story, there are alot of liberties taken with certain events/characters and alot of continuity issues to do with not following the manga fuly. Also the series does not reach a proper conclusion as it barely scratches the surface of the 22 part manga (which is still being made, it is currently at #22 in Japan). As well as the series suffering from terrible voice acting in the west and the second 6 episodes had a serious budget cut in animation, which is why the 1st series seriously surpasses it in this area.
As for the Manga, it was picked up by Viz some time ago but they only released 7 volumes and since then it has been on hiatus, although Viz do still own the rights to the english translation there is hope that they may pick it up again if this new series proves popular. (Although there is a place that is translating a releasing the Mangas now, they are up to Volume 6, so if you are interested in this then pm me)
Anyway, here is a link to the official site
As you can see the characters have undergone a bit of a redesign. But are still recognizable, for any person even remotely interested in the Guyver this is very good news, and for fans this is exactly what you have been waiting for. Personally I can't wait for it

Steamboy will be released on 7/26 - I have seen it and its fantastic - I've only seen it in Japanese subtitled-fan subbed ( loved the voices ) cant wait to see what the Americanized version is like ( hope they dont edit it or mess with it ) this is the best anime movie of the season . Howl's is Ok , but I hate it when Disney gets involved - if you know what I mean !

Is anyone having problems playing volumes 2-4 of the Great Teacher Onizuka import box set from Manga? Mines stop half way through the discs and won't play any further.
