Hey, Answerman! - We Can't Have Nice Things
This week in Answerman, Brian tramples all over the lovely bramble bush that is your collected hopes and dreams as he explains the creativity stifling machine that is anime and manga production, the ubiquity of American pop-culture as it applies to the development of new titles, and why you'll never see Ninku on DVD in English aside from that weird little movie. Plus Answerfans!

The Art of Vampire Knight ArtbookOverall, this book is stunning. Interesting compositions, breathtaking color, and good use of line, shape, and space make this volume a very satisfactory experience. While the similarities of character design can be off putting, the fact that this book is in full color makes it easier to appreciate Hino's artwork than in the manga itself.
The Story of Saiunkoku GN 4All in all, this is the first real stand-
Kamisama Kiss GN 5This is a charming entry into an already fun series. The seeds for two major plot developments are sown, showing that Suzuki still has plenty of places left to visit in the spirit world. With humor, grace, and the only partially-
Book Girl and the Captive Fool Novel 3Up until this point the Book Girl series has been a vaguely forgettable experience, but this installment promises more development of Konoha and some of the recurring side characters. It isn't terrific, but Book Girl and the Captive Fool is an enjoyable, slightly atmospheric read.
Cage of Eden GN 1Despite its slow start, Cage of Eden becomes deeply engrossing, so that once a certain point is reached, it is nearly impossible to put down. The central mystery may be something we've seen before, but in this case that doesn't matter. As Akira and his fellow survivors set out to solve it, we are filled with a foreboding that the most dangerous animals that they will face on the mysterious island are the humans.
Bleach GN 36
The break in continuity may be just what flagging readers need to regain interest in a series that drags at times, and the slight melancholy of the past may recharge waning emotions. Bleach is by no means perfect, but for the time being, it is still a series worth reading.

Ai Ore! GN 2
Although not as enjoyable as its predecessor because of an increased non-consensual factor, Ai Ore is still solid romance writing for romance fans. With the humor of Ran and Rui thrown in, plus some interesting tidbits about the recording of the drama CD this is still a good beach book.

Sakura Hime: The Legend of Princess Sakura GN 3
While Sakura Hime: The Legend of Princess Sakura is not Tanemura's finest work, it is still a welcome return to the classic magical girl story. The start has been a bit slow, but with the plot the author wanted rearing its head, it seems safe to say that the series will get better from here.

Katanagatari Sub.DVD/Blu-ray Box Set 2
The end of Katanagatari is good, but had it allowed us to get closer to its characters, it could have been great.
Vampire Knight GN 13
Although Vampire Knight volume 13 retains some of the problems of its predecessor, it has enough going on to make it a good read. It still doesn't live up to volumes ten and eleven in terms of excitement and plot, but it continues to guide us forward to the point where the series will reach that level again.

Noein DVD 5At turns intense, ominous, spectacular, confusing, and even emotional, the final four episodes may slide a bit on writing quality but never get dull. Few will walk away from this one feeling disappointed.
