Gianax's PANTY AND STOCKING WITH GARTERBELT Coming To UK This July!

This is probably one of the weirdest names for Japanese animation but Gianax's PANTY AND STOCKING WITH GARTERBELT has a cult following and in July UK&Irish fans can now own the series on DVD!

Panty and Stocking - the Anarchy Sisters - are two nasty angels who got booted from the pearly gates for being foul-mouthed bitches! Now they spend their days blowing up ghosts in the lecherous abyss between Heaven and Earth. Panty likes sex, Stocking likes sweets, their afro-sporting main man Garter Belt has a fetish we can't mention. Together, they're keeping the streets free of bodily fluids. Ghosts don't have a prayer against their panty pistols and stocking swords, and if this debaucherous duo can collect enough Heaven Coins, they just might get their halos back. They've got a slim chance in hell, but rolling commando is the best way to get lucky - especially with Panty and Stocking!

Ok this isn't you straight up anime nor is it the dreaded Hentai, its naughty, sexy, funny and the mix of stereotypical anime style and ren&stimpy visuals may appeal to a wider audience. Manga Entertainment are releasing the series (season one) on DVD in UK&;Ireland on July 30th, pre order your copy and check out the UK trailer below.

Koji Masunari's Welcome To The Space Show Coming To UK This July!

Posted by Unknown at 21:46 No comments:

The July Koji Masunari's Welcome To The Space Show will arrive on Blu Ray and DVD thanks to Manga Entertainment UK. A dazzlingly animated sci-fi adventure for the whole family that matches the very best work of Hayao Miyazaki (Ponyo; Spirited Away) in its visual and creative brilliance.

Five young school friends set to spend a week together at summer camp avoiding the hassles of parental supervision unexpectedly find themselves on a truly out-of-this-world adventure when their class rabbit goes missing. Searching for their pet, the kids find and rescue what they believe to be an injured dog. As it turns out, the creature is actually a stranded alien named Pochi, who rewards their kindness with the offer of a trip to the moon! However, this simple sightseeing excursion to view the lunar landscape up close spins out of control and leads to a thrilling chase across the galaxy, with the five friends and their extra-terrestrial companion on the run from evil aliens intent on ruling the universe.

Stylistically reminiscent of Mamoru Hosoda’s “Summer Wars” with touches of Miyazaki’s “My Neighbour Totoro”, this is a stunning piece of animation that will thrill adults and children alike. If you’re a fan of Studio Ghibli but wished their output could be a little bit edgier in content, then this will be right up your street.

The film as well as some of the voice cast were at last month's London MCM Expo with a short preview of the film however you can own Welcome To The Space Show when it's released on DVD&Blu-Ray July 2nd.
