Bokurano GN 4
Volume 4 continues like the rest of Bokurano, looking deep into the characters' personal issues ... It may not get one's heart pumping with excitement, but it does get to one's heart.

Yu Yu Hakusho Blu-ray Season 1 Box Set
A well-tuned action machine: honest, unpretentious, and stripped of all the convoluted political BS that clogs so many of its peers.
Skip Beat! GN 24
If you've been enjoying Skip Beat so far, you'll enjoy this volume. Nakamura's twisted tale of vengeance is still a funny, somewhat romantic romp that remains capable of making you laugh out loud. With quirky characters, nice visuals, and a plot that hasn't gotten stale yet, this entry into the series won't lose any fans.

Fullmetal Alchemist GN 25
As the series hustles along towards its end, it almost feels like it would be better to wait for Viz to put out volumes 26 and 27 before picking up this one. It hurries along at a rapid pace, but with so many plot threads to tie up, it might be more rewarding to just wait for the series to be over.

Cross Game GN 4
The series slides effortlessly between calm slices of life and fired-up baseball action ... everything about Cross Game proceeds in a smooth, flowing motion, and that's what keeps readers hooked.

Wandering Son GN 1
Wandering Son is a kind, gentle introduction to the story of two transgendered children beginning to understand themselves. Transgender is a subject that many people who are not members of the LBGTQ community struggle to comprehend, and Shimura uses a light touch to try and bring a greater understanding of it to her readers.

Spice & Wolf GN 4
Lawrence meets a pretty shepherdess and gets himself in a financial jam as this adaptation of the original novels continues. Though it has few major events, the ongoing byplay between the leads keeps the story entertaining.

TO Film: Elliptical Orbit & Symbiotic Planet DVD/Blu-Ray
Two all-CG tales of the spacefaring future are spun by the studio and director behind Vexille, with similar results: impressive visuals and animation saddled with cliché-ridden storytelling which mostly fails to impress.
Supernatural the Anime Series BLURAY
Transforms the WB live action drama into a slick anime series designed to provide something new and different to existing fans while hopefully reaching new fans as well.

A Certain Scientific Railgun GN 1
Overall this is a choppy, somewhat uncertain book. The main plot is good and could be worth reading if only Kamachi could stick to it and stop side-tracking into unimportant territory. In some ways reading this is like being told a story by someone who can't stay on topic – you know the plot's in there somewhere, if he could just get around to telling it.
