    OK then, how about Serial Experiments Lain? There's some deep psychological stuff in that.

    There's also Madoka, but prepare for the feels.

    Seems Anime Limited has put Samurai Flamenco up onto Netflix. I thought it was a good series, can kinda go off the deep end a few episodes in but if you follow it to the end it does make a weird kind of sense.

    Of course not, Anime Limited are a UK company and as such they put it up on the UK and Irish versions. Aniplex have the US rights.

    Yeah!! Love Death Note :) One of my favourite anime! Possibly the only anime I felt suspense throughout, loved the dynamic between L and Light...made the mistake of watching the live action though xD Really didn't like that xD

    Hmv/Xtravision now have the bluray if Psycho-Pass in stock for €40.
    http://www.hmv.ie/Psycho-pass-Season-1-Part-2/movies-games-entertainment/pd/106844?path=blu-ray

    Just ordered it, cant argue with that price as at full rrp it should be €73 and Amazon sell it for £44.

    Its great when they mess up and have it marked as a half season set. :D

    So were starting into the "last episode of the season"....season. What shows are folks gonna miss most, or not at all?

    Standout for me was Monthly Girls Nozaki-Kun, just damn funny and adorable in equal measure.

    Also picked up Psycho Pass Bluray

    I've noticed HMV in Galway have really doubled their anime section, quite a lot of stuff and some good prices

    Actually seriously impressed with their anime stock, there's a decent variety of stuff.

    Only buy what you really like and you think you'll watch again ;)

    I've got nearly all the Ghibli movies for example, they'll always get a rewatch
