FIST OF THE CHARACTER DESIGNER

Interview: While perhaps not the best known of this year's Guests of Honor at Anime Expo, Hayama Junichi (BE-BOP HIGH SCHOOL and JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURES) nevertheless poses an interesting figure as an animator. Wrapping up its AX98 coverage, EX presents an introspective interview with Mr. Hayama and talks about his new project, KING OF THE DESERT GANDALLA.

The DVD debate: It's here, it's cheap, and it's not going away. Is Digital Video Disc for you? Chris Kohler dissects the video mediums used to present anime—VHS, laserdisc and DVD—and helps fans to muddle through all the fuss (and sometimes frustration) about the DVD decision that is gripping the videophile community.
