They look legit but other DVDs look very dodgy like the Stargate boxsets they have.......

Unfortunately the DVDs of GiTS they had were non-consecutive, say 5 of 7 DVDs from the series, so I decided to give it a miss..... If they had the complete series on the other hand though.

If you are after cheap legitimate anime then check out http://www.rightstuf.com/ as they have excellent specials.  I recently bought 25 Geneon DVDs for $100US and although postage was steep, it still worked out less than $10 per disc.

For Pokemon fans, the Cartoon Network is having a marathon this weekend with Pokemon screening from 10.00 to 16.00 Sat & Sun and 7.00 to 12.30 on Monday

I just saw an advert for 'Heavenly Sword' on the Cartoon Network.  

The ad stated Friday 22.30 and Saturday 0.30 although it is not listed on either the Cartoon Network website or the Foxtel planner.  I also could not find any info other than it was made as a prequel to a PS3 game.

I assume it's the 2'10" (each episode) shorts that are available on the Playstation Store. There are five available; a Wikipedia link here.

Coming to ABC2 in 2008 - Death Note ( http://deathnote.viz.com/ )

Spoiler

Light Yagami is an extremely intelligent young man who resents the crime and corruption in the world. His life undergoes a drastic change in the year 2003, when he discovers a mysterious notebook, known as the "Death Note", lying on the ground. The Death Note's instructions claim that if a human's name is written within it, that person shall die. Light is initially skeptical of the Death Note's authenticity, believing it is just a prank. However, after experimenting with it and killing two criminals, Light is forced to admit that the Death Note is real. After meeting with the previous owner of the Death Note, a shinigami named Ryuk, Light seeks to become "the God of the new world" by passing his judgment on criminals.

Soon, the number of inexplicable deaths of reported criminals catches the attention of the International Police Organization and a mysterious detective known only as "L". L quickly learns that the serial killer, dubbed by the public as "Kira" (derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the word "Killer"), is located in Japan. L also concludes that Kira can kill people without laying a finger on them. Light realizes that L will be his greatest nemesis, and a game of psychological cat and mouse between the two begins.

Will the inuyasha series ever play on free-to-air tv?

[DrP]

Unlikey, but anything is possible.  You might find that Cartoon Network spawns another channel and puts the 'adult swim' type content on it.

Ta for the info - lost most of the miyazaki movies with a Toppy crash a while back. And I've never seen Porco Rosso.

Grave of the Fireflies was great, but left me emotionally drained...

PS. Anyone heard of a studio ghibli boxset being released on R4?
