Glad Funimation got Shangri-La. Didn't think it'd ever get licensed.  |

Sankarea is a nice pick. “There’s no way I’d come to like a girl with such strange horns. Then why did you… I told you I love unusual animals..” |

isnt shangri-la that show about trannies? "Being a fan of something is like having a penis. It's normal to have one and it's nice to be proud of it. But for the love of god, don't pull it out in public and don't wave it in other's faces." |

Rewatched Shangri-La a few months ago. I'd have to say that while Gonzo could have made a better adaptation, the show definitely had a very rich futuristic setting. The mystery and supersition of Atlas was an interesting concept and could have been explained better. TL Notes: Some information are worth more than a simple note from the translator. |

Raildex where? Funimation should slow down with hoarding licenses and actually release some of the stagnating titles that they've previously acquired. |

Sankarea is a good pick up; even if only just started it looks like its gonna be a good adaption; first episode stayed true enough to the manga at least.  |
