It was February 9, 1976. Karate lessons were advertised in the Geelong Advertiser at the International School of Self Defense, then located at 48 Little Ryrie Street. Along with a list of products on sale (nunchaku, anyone?), the eye-catching graphic here is key art from the Karate baka Ichidai TV series! Another very early and lost example of anime culture infiltrating Australia, no doubt influenced by the popularity of the Samurai TV series in the 60's and 70's.

Finally listed for pre-order! Part 1 of Durarara!! x2 on DVD and Blu-ray.

Hot contender for sequel of the year, x2 will be in stores this March, but available to our mail-order customers late this month when stock arrives. Contains episodes 1 to 12!
