So I sat down to start watching Gonzo’s “Gad Guard”, not knowing much about the series, except that it was a mecha anime. Now I know what you’re thinking (I thought it too); if you’ve seen one mecha anime, you’ve seen ‘em all. But don’t count out “Gad Guard”; it may surprise you, a little.

Just letting everyone know that Geneon products are starting to reappear in stores.
I saw a few volumes of Black Lagoon earlier today. Not interested in the show, so I didn’t get them, but they are most certainly out there for those of you who are willing to look around.
