And the circle is now fucking CLOSED. Found Dan Rockwell's blog. Corroboration of an anecdote I heard ages ago - the "Do It Now" ad was originally set to Chemical Brothers' Chemical Beats when shown at A-Kon 1997.
ADV couldn't get the rights, so they used "Do It Now" when it started hitting tapes.
Rare YouTube video showing a tour of E3 2005, uploaded in August 2005.
Probably one of the first YouTube videos to be around an hour long.

AnimeSuki was a very formative site for my early days as an anime fan in the 00s. Tons of titles I came across & later watched simply by perusing the list of series.
B't X, Ring ni Kakero 1, Tales of Eternia the Animation, Yokoyama Sangokushi, Combustible Campus Guardress, Hunter x Hunter '99, etc.
The Internet Archive has an archived version of AnimeSuki just days prior to its main site being shut down on February 15, 2019 (the forums are still active to this day, though), and the "Groups" list is an excellent collection of old fansub groups that I can recall from so long ago.
Yeah, I old.

All I want for my birthday is for everyone who sees this to buy #TheMangaBible or borrow it from their local library. If you buy it from an indie bookstore or bookshop.org that's even better because it shares the love even further.
New year and new MAILBAG DAY!
Got a few new things to share that arrived while I was at Magfeat this past week.
First up. Volumes 2 and 3 of Gunbuster on laserdisc and volume one on Video CD!
The Video CD also has a small catalog of Gainax releases from the mid 90s as well.
3 years ago, Netflix canceled Gorillaz's animated feature film.
But it's never too late to change your mind π
