Bleach DVD 15
Savor the air up here; it'll be eons before the series scales these heights again.

Review: Dragonball Evolution
It's as bad as the fans said it would be. Wait, scratch that - worse.

Fushigi Yûgi Genbu Kaiden GN 8
Volume eight is another strong installment to the series, one that begins that slow, inevitable circle back to those aspects of the now classic mythos that fans already know.

Ah My Buddha DVD 1
This series about a Buddhist monk-in-training who gets powered up by seeing bare female flesh clearly wants to be a silly ecchi romp in the style of Ninja Nonsense, but instead ends up being dull, lame, and brainless. Even its fan service cannot justify watching it.

D.Gray-man GN 12
Volume twelve of Katsura Hoshino's ongoing tournament shounen manga D.Gray-man represents a major turning point in the Black Order's ongoing war to end all wars against the Millenium Earl's elite soldiers, the Clan of Noah.

Rosario + Vampire GN 5
This volume is, at best, a transition between one major story arc and the next, filling in the spaces with lightweight romantic entanglements.

MPD-Psycho GN 7
If in volume six of MPD-Psycho the plot thickens deliciously, in volume seven it overcooks into a congealed, indigestible mess that one hopes—with perhaps only uncertain confidence—that it will ultimately be salvageable.

Parasyte GN 6
Humans who fight against monsters must be wary of becoming monsters themselves, but what of monsters who find themselves becoming human?

Ghost Talker's Daydream GN 3
This series has finally figured out how to tone itself down and tell an actual story instead of flashing erotic imagery every five pages.

I''s & I''s Pure Box Set DVD
A young man pines for a pretty girl that he incorrectly thinks he can't have in this pair of adaptations of the source manga being released together. They should appeal to fans of the manga but lack the production and storytelling quality necessary to otherwise stand out.

Sakura Diaries DVD 1
The edits have been removed, the dub redone, and the episode count per disc doubled in ADV's rerelease of a title they originally released in 2001. If you favor saucy, sexy romance series or have an appreciation for high-quality fan service then this may be a title worth checking out.
