    In Dublin? Try Ireland.
    Well there are a few other places I'm sure.
    But the selection of anime on show there isn't really much.
    They have a decent selection of manga there. Which is generally the only thing I buy there.
    A sad situation isn't it.

    FP is pretty much the only place in the country that you can get anime/manga, bar the odd MEL(Manga Entertainment Ltd) dvd that you see in HMV or GAME or somewhere. The internet is my primary source of anime well amazon.com. If you *really* don't want to / cant get stuff from the net, go to your local comic book/ games shop (warhammer type stuff) / model shop , ask them to order stuff, you can probably if you can find out the isbn number of a manga you want to can probably ge them to order it just for you. You can find most of them out at places on the net where you would buy them or even on the publisers website.

    Cork needs a lot of decent things. But it ain't gonna get them.
    However a comic store is top of my list, then a place to get decent anime. But getting decent anime in PAL format is hard no matter where you get it.

    Forget about buying anime and mange on the high-street. The only place is the 'net. www.blackstar.co.uk and www.tfaw.com to be more specific. Blackstar have the widest collection of PAL anime I've seen anywhere, even the latest stuff and tfaw are just, well, they're just pretty damn cool!

    'ello there. Nothing new really to add- but there is a video specialist place in Ranelagh called Lazer videos, they have a good bit of anime, believe it or not, if you didn't know that already ^_~. I haven't actually rented anything from the place yet but I was just browsingg theres quite a bit there, don't know if they do dubs and subs or whatever but check it out maybe. Nice place too.
    Wow comics in Dun Laoghaire got in a little manga in the past few months, and about 3 anime vids (wahoo)- Akira and GitS dubbed, well its a start, right! a sign for more things of come in the future, ohhh yes.

    I know a @#%$ hot fansubber over in England.
    His sites @ animina.hypermart.net/

    All of the stuff is encoded in DIVX, Real Media or MPEG.
    £2.75 for each disc and the quality is great, very nice guy too.

    He has very recent anime series like NOIR and Mahoromatic (from Gainax), that won't be released here or in the US for over a year.

    If you do order something from him say that Richard Lacey refered you OK ^_^

    Forbidden Planet is probably the best place in Ireland to find anime.
    But there's this place on the web www.jpophelp.com which sells anime and J-Pop goods at really good prices.
    I recently ordered some Gundam Soundtracks from there(my favourite ^_^).
