- The No-Name crew went to San Diego Comic-con and survived! And we've
brought back prizes to give away! That's right, be there if you'd like a
chance to win the Laputa film comics, another Ranma calendar page, or the
City Hunter movie poster!
- 2:45 Jackie Chan's City Hunter
- (Subtitled, Comedy)
It's a first for No-Name: a live-action film. This is the Hong Kong-made
film based on the City Hunter anime. Ryo Saeba, aka City Hunter, has been
hired to find the daughter of a wealthy publisher, with the chase leading him
straight into a gang of international terrorists. Starring Jackie Chan,
Joey Wong, and Maggie Chung, it's a non-stop roller coaster of pure comedy.
And some of the stunts in the movie have to be seen to be believed!

he loves, is in fact in love with Takashi, his best friend. But during his
depression over this, Youta comes across a strange videotape in an even

TV, his life is changed in ways he couldn't have imagined! This is the
sweet and enchanting romantic story that has been praised by everyone!
