We are now a Crunchyroll affiliate!

We are pleased to announce that we are now a Crunchyroll affiliate!

Crunchyroll is quite possibly the best thing to come around for us anime fans, and is the easiest and cheapest way of enjoying 100% legal streaming anime while supporting the companies that create it. They actively go after the latest and greatest anime […]


Cool Find: Western Digital WD TV Live

This is sort of a half-Cool Find, half-review type article.

For the last few years I have been on a quest — a quest to free my anime from the confines of my computer screen.

Many others out there have shared this quest, I’m sure. After all, although watching anime on your computer is nice […]


Air Video adds AirPlay support: now you can watch your anime on your Apple TV on the big screen!

The Apple TV is a decent little media center streaming box. It improves in every way over its predecessor – smaller, lighter, faster, and doesn’t give off over 9000 BTU of heat energy.

With it, you can rent and stream any of the (pretty large) anime collection that’s now available on iTunes, as well as […]


Crunchyroll app now available for Android devices

If you like the idea of high quality “all you can eat” streaming anime that you can enjoy anytime, anyplace, then in our humble opinion, you can’t beat a Crunchyroll membership. They have a truly awe-inspiring selection of titles, and they actively go after the latest and greatest from Japan. Many series that they feature […]


Cool Find: Watch the classic 80s anime “Bubblegum Crisis” for free on Hulu

I’ve been busy working up the next show, where I’ll FINALLY be completing my “Anime on the Cheap” segment I started over 9000 years ago (not really, but close enough), and so I’ve been exploring all the options available for downloading and streaming anime on the Internet. But I came across something that I […]


Cool Find: How to register at Nico Nico Douga

Nico Nico Douga is a sort of Japanese YouTube, and is one of the most popular video sharing sites in Japan. It’s a hotbed of otaku-related video sharing activity, and you can often find fun fan-made anime- or video game-related video content on it. (There’s tons of other weird, wild and wacky Japan-related video content […]


Crunchyroll for iPad: It’s Here!

A while ago I wrote about the (then new) Crunchyroll app for the iPhone and iPod touch, with a note saying that they were working on an iPad app that would be out soon.

Well great news – the Crunchyroll app for the iPad is finally here!

This one kinda slipped in under my radar, […]


Crunchyroll app now available in Boxee

Boxee is one of my favorite media center applications. Available for the Mac, Windows, Linux, and AppleTV, Boxee presents an excellent “10-foot interface” ideal for use on a Media Center computer – that is, a computer hooked up to a large-screen TV, projector, etc. It makes it really easy to watch/listen to your movies, TV […]


Mobile Suit Gundam now streaming for free on Crunchyroll!

Attention Gundam fans! In honor of the impending Mobile Suit Gundam UC (Unicorn) Blu-ray release, everybody’s favorite streaming anime provider Crunchyroll is not only streaming Unicorn, but is also streaming the original Mobile Suit Gundam series! This stream is available free to anyone in the US, Canada, Europe (excluding select countries) and Russia.

Not familiar […]


YARRRRR!! Pirates rejoice! One Piece returns to sail the Seven Seas in streaming form!

I know, International Talk Like a Pirate Day isn’t for another few weeks, but I’m sure that once you read the good news contained herein, you’ll forgive me this slight lapse into piratical dialogue.

Avast, ye salty sea dogs! I be bringin’ good news fer all ye One Piece fans out there! FUNimation has […]
