As I tend to play all the big name Japanese titles months before their western releases, I am often bombarded with questions wanting more specifics about the game itself or it’s overall quality. But every once in a while, I will get the question that always throws me for a loop: “Is the game worth a rental?” These days, it never even occurs to be that rental is an option. Why? Because renting video games is basically illegal in Japan, and has been for over 25 years.
Blood: The Last Vampire was one the big anime movies of the late-nineties anime boom alongside other films such as Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll and Akira. Since then, it has had a live action remake, a 52-episode anime series (Blood+), three games (four if you count Heroes Phantasia), and several manga adaptations. This weekend will mark the debut of its second anime feature film, Blood-C: The Last Dark.
Ai Shinozaki is one of Japan’s most popular pin-ups. Like so many young Japanese idols, she’s released photo books and DVDs of her prancing about in swimwear on some exotic beach. She’s also paid her dues by appearing in swimwear (of course!) at fan meet-and-greet events in Tokyo geek paradise, Akihabara.
