From my past experience of anime's I have concluded that it must be difficult to make a truly bad one. If the Japanese-to-English translation is a bit ropey, then the story usually makes up for it, and if all else fails, they are worth watching just for the animation and effects. I suppose creaters would see quite early on if they were on to a flop production - it takes a lot of time and effort to make these kind of films and so they probably wouldn't persevere.
With this in mind I bought Psychic Wars, first released in Japan back in 1991, converted to English in 1998 and remastered for DVD earlier this year. It is part of the Manga budget ' Collection' series of films, £7.99 each, and most of which are available from play.com.
Set (naturally) in Japan, Psychic Wars follows the actions of an expert surgeon called Ukyo, who we first ...
The Ford KA, officially an icon for Ford. The Ka was introduced in 1996 and my girlfriend bought the 1998 KA 1 model as her first car. It was obviously a 3-door model (the only option) but it was in a weird colour, it looked like brown, grey and silver mixed into one, but it was listed in the logbook as grey.
The KA was originally designed to only have black plastic bumpers so in the event of a minor crash they could easily and cheaply be replaced. This model has the black bumpers, but having done 72000miles upon purchase they had done a feint grey colour and although the black bumper/trim polish is easy and cheap to buy from Halfords or anywhere, I would recommend (if you can afford it) to buy a colour coded one as they just look better and don?t have to be repainted even if the car doesn?t need it- as the black ones do.

Appleseed:
I have been cataloguing my DVD collection recently and I noticed that I did not have that many anime films despite being a huge fan of the genre. I have therefore been using my review earnings to rectify the situation and as a result I have a much healthier anime section now.
Appleseed is an anime film I had heard about many times but for whatever reason I had never gotten around to watching it so when I saw it on Amazon for only £4.98 I decided to get it and give it a go.
For those of you unfamiliar with the anime genre it is basically a term used, (everywhere apart from Japan), to describe Japanese animation. In Japanese though anime simply means animation, Japanese or otherwise. Many people refer to all anime as Manga but Manga is a specific company, I guess it?s like people calling all vacuum cleaners ?Hoovers ...
