I'm looking for the Fullmetal Alchemist mangas, but it doesn't look like they're around at the moment. =/ Seems Amazon have some for pre-order for release from March 2009, but I'd like to buy some now, if possible. Anyone know another online retailer that stocks manga?

try

http://www.up1.co.uk

they are pretty good.  the only time they havent delivered a product is that it went out of print.  And they are fast at shipping if something if said item is in stock.  When I lived at my parents, if I ordered something early in the day, it would turn up the next day.  Stupid inner London post taking extra time!

Wasn't sure where to post this, so I'll do it here.

Is Salaryman Kintaro good? Jim and I bought the whole series for £5, and still haven't watched it yet. I just want to know if any of you have seen it and if you liked it?

Holy crap, they have them all! Thanks so much, LWB, that site is amazing! I shall definitely be bookmarking it and using it again in the future. It's a lifesaver!

Plus the guys that run it are nice.  Even when they sent me the wrong item, it got changed really quickly and even included a note stating "the party responsible has been ridiculed and beaten".

Try not to click too many links, theres lots to steal all your money away from you :P

I'm REALLY looking for the Slayers anime! Not the original original with Naga and Lina, but Slayers, Slayers Next and Slayers Try.
Help?  :)

Not a clue about that, best bet is Pyra...who seems to be a Wizard at finding stuff you want....you could try Animesuki for Slayers Revolution though...the 4th series in the world of Slayers that has only been aired this year :p

I've already tried Kanon and am loving it. But here is an odd request.

This is similar to my posting looking for games, but I want to watch an almost purely romantic anime. It's what I liked about Megatokyo (I know it wasn't purely romance, but it played a large role I think). Any suggestions? i don't care if it's a sub plot in the story of a anime/manga, I just like romance.
Tsubasa Chronicles is a good example of this.

Air should be worth a look. Clannad is next on my list being by KyoAni and based on a game by Key like Kanon and Air are.

And answering the games thread here Kanon, Clannad and Air are all originally games. Though I've not played any of them myself.
