ARMITAGE III – Movie Collection
Anime Classics
Available Now! – Buy here on DVD
Finally, the original cyberpunk classic is available in one comprehensive collection. One of the first productions to enlist famous American actors such as Kiefer Sutherland [24], multiple award winner Bryan Cranston [Breaking Bad], and Juliette Lewis [Natural Born Killers], and created by a team of anime masterminds—including writers Akinori Endo [Battle Angel] and Chiaki Konaka [Serial Experiments: Lain, Hellsing]—Armitage III: The Complete Saga is a must-have for anime and sci-fi devotees.
Armitage is a brash cybernetic cop who sports a racy wardrobe and an attitude to match. Patrolling an unruly metropolis on Mars, she’s got a grudge against a society where androids are at the mercy of unsympathetic humans. In the original OVAs—also coalesced as the feature film Poly Matrix—Armitage risks everything to hunt down a vicious android killer and solve the secret to her existence. The sequel, Dual Matrix, finds her in an over-charged battle to save her loved ones from an obsessive doctor and his deadly Armitage replicas.

SCHOOL RUMBLE – Season 1 & OVA
S.A.V.EAvailable Now! – Buy here on DVD
You’ll like the jokes in School Rumble so much that you’ll want to high-five them. The series is so fast paced that each episode ends ten minutes before it starts. But between spasms of unabashed zaniness, you’ll find a surprisingly sincere story about a cast of quirky characters who just can’t seem to figure out love.
Harima usually plays it cool, but lately he’s freaking out thanks to his crush on sophomore cutie Tenma, who is constantly freaking out due to her crush on classmate Karasuma. Too bad Karasuma is completely clueless and only seems to care about eating curry. The curry, while delicious, doesn’t seem to have a crush on anyone. Seriously, that’s all you need to know. Everything else is just the icing on the pig. You’ll see what I mean about the pig.

SCHOOL RUMBLE – 2ND SEMESTER
S.A.V.EAvailable Now! – Buy here on DVD
We still have no idea what’s really going on with this show, beyond the fact that the weirdness is piling up!
Curry-fiend Karasama remains oblivious to Tenma’s crush, and Harima still hasn’t confessed his true feelings to Tenma. But hey, the thug’s got an excuse since he’s caught up with his comic career and knee-deep in a blizzard of deadlines! Meanwhile, the love triangles are ever-shifting thanks to wannabe cupids and runaway brides.
Even when you throw in a bit of cyborg love, a shipwreck, and a fugitive red panda – seriously, that ain’t even scratching the surface. You are encouraged to scratch the pig, though. He likes it! And something rumbles in the next to last episode, no matter what I say next.
School Rumble – The absolutely funniest show you’ll ever see that’s not about anything that rumbles… Ever!
