The connection between this game and the first one is established through the continuing plot and the recurring characters. To emphasize this connection, musical themes for the old characters are remixed to fit their matured roles while new themes are composed for Emil and Marta, the two new protagonists.
Asian Kung Fu Generation is a popular band in Japan and many anime fans may already have heard of them for they have performed themes songs for hot series such as Naruto and Full Metal Alchemist.
This band has hosted the Nano Mugen 2008 event to promote rock music and this compilation consists of the works featured in this event. Scout out new favourites with this CD as it offers you a taste of sixteen bands in one disc.
This set of feature length movies retells Neon Genesis Evangelion, a highly acclaimed anime series from the late 1990s. Evangelion follows the misadventures of Ikari Shinji that eventually pushes him toward maturation and this first disc - Evangelion You're (not) Alone tells of the unfortunate incidents that begins to shape his life.
This is the reprint of the original limited edition of the Evangelion movie and will only be available for as long as stocks last.
Batman is one of the most popular comic titles in the world and Gotham city is one of the most decadent and glamourous cities. Batman Begins [Standard and Limited Gift Set edition] explore the beginnings of the dark knight, starting from the death of the protagonist's parents.
