October 17, 2013 by Lance Heiskell 1 Comment

The cover is Gatchaman Tatsunoko greatness, but I think The Slayers feature is the best part of this issue. If you want to introduce your friends to Slayers, send them to read this feature scan. That's kinda it on the main items to cover. Onto the highlights of this issue. Lots of 90s ads.Urban Vision uses an accent in the word anime.

This is one … [Read more...] about Animerica April 1999 Full of Lum and Urusei Yatsura

Here are the highlights.Why formative?While Neon Genesis Evangelion has been advertised some by ADV, all the ads promoted other titles as well. It was not until the last VHS volume 13 that Evangelion got a full ad. For this issue the show finally got a cover.

Practice Makes Awesome

A Few Tips Upon Reading

First off, find a secluded area and pour yourself a beverage of choice. You must cleanse the palate to take in the delicacies of the nostalgia I'm about to throw down.

Second, if it’s cold where you live, grab a blanket, maybe two. If at all possible, sit down while reading. I hate standing, never stood for it, never will.

Finally, see if you can find the encrypted message left in the third magazine post.
