Air Master, Interlude and Slam Dunk are Licensed!

Ah, but Slam Dunk is not as much about basketball as to the development of the main character THROUGH basketball! Granted, the type of basketball shown there may not be familiar to Americans, but having seen the entire series (AND read the entire manga), I would guess that the author merely used the sport as a means to show the development of his main character.

If I were to compare Sakuragi (Slam Dunk's main character) to a recent anime, I'd say it would be similar to Naruto, which is also heavy on character development.

Looks like that. At first it scared me a little bit when they said "first volume" that they might have put it on two DVDs.

From Animenewsnetwork:

Geneon also announced some new April and May releases for Toei (which are distributed by Geneon), including the first volume of Interlude on April 12th and further volumes of Air Master and Slam Dunk on May 10th.

But then its lenght is 120 minutes, so I quess its the first and only volume (all three episode were around 40 minutes if I remember correctly). I liked Interlude, and I would hated to buy three episodes on two DVDs when you can easily fit five normal anime episodes on one DVD.

Watched Interlude, was really good, not so sure of the others. Oh, and I did it illegally, aren't I a stinker?

Naruto = character development?

LOL!
