I finally got round to part two of my Studio Ghibli review marathon! This time I'm covering 1989 to 1993, and Kiki's Delivery Service, Only Yesterday, Porco Rosso, and Ocean Waves: davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2025/07/drowni…

In this month's batch of vintage anime reviews, I'm doing a deep dive into the weird world of one of the more obscure and long-forgotten distributors, the so-bad-they're-kind-of-fascinating Western Connection. davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2025/04/drowni…

Took me a while, but I finally got 2025's first batch of vintage anime reviews together. And hey, one of them is even of a brand-new Blu-ray release, how often does that happen? davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2025/02/drowni…

I guess I'd better get my act together if I'm going to get one last vintage anime post out before the end of 2024... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/12/drowni…

Back with the vintage anime reviews, and after a couple of exciting breaks from the usual, it's a return to the usual deeply obscure randomness... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/11/drowni…

I've left it way too long with the vintage anime reviews, but what better way to make up for it than with some sexy nineties anime? davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/08/drowni…

It's a particularly obscure batch in this month's vintage anime reviews, which makes it all the more frustrating that one of them's a bit of a stone-cold classic... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/06/drowni…

This time around with the vintage anime reviews, I set out to review a bunch of bad kids' movies - or at least, bad Western releases of good kids' movies - and inadvertently let a minor classic slip through: davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/04/drowni…

More vintage anime reviews, with something of a sports theme this time around, along with the most wildly enjoyable (and wildly terrible) film I've seen in quite some time... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/03/drowni…

It's been a bit too long since the last vintage anime review post, but in fairness, I did have to watch around twenty hours of TV for this Slayers special... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/03/drowni…

Here's the first batch of vintage anime reviews for the new year, and there's at least one thing in there to get a bit excited about, as I finally cover the highly regarded but never DVD-released Grey: Digital Target... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2024/01/drowni…

Here's some more vintage anime reviews, and for what may be the last time, everything here is pretty easy to find - though whether anyone would want to is another question! davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2023/10/drowni…

In a bit of a break from recent nineties anime reviews programming, I'm taking a deep dive into a show that's both well-known and easy to lay hands on, the OVA sequel to classic TV series The Irresponsible Captain Tylor: davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2023/09/drowni…

Time for some more vintage anime reviews, and normally covering The End of Evangelion or the second volume of Birdy the Mighty might be the standout here, but not when we have a movie made by an actual, honest-to-goodness cult... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2023/08/drowni…

Here's a bunch more reviews of anime that's practically impossible to get hold of, including a couple of titles that are good enough to make that fact really frustrating... davidtallerman.blogspot.com/2023/07/drowni…
