Clannad: Complete Collection Blu-Ray
Every character, interaction, and happening in Clannad is calculated for maximum emotional impact. And impacted we are.

Yu Yu Hakusho: The Movie & Eizou Hakusho DVD
The key to enjoying this set is to realize right off the bat that it isn't a traditional DVD release so much as a two-disc collection of extras.

Border GN 2
Overall Border is an engaging, entertaining story that would be right at home airing on any basic cable channel. With a tight-knit core team of attractive crime-fighting men, a police detective on their trail, and a willingness to show the darker side of their missions, Border makes for good reading for the action fan.

Rosario + Vampire DVD
These 2008 Gonzo series are exactly what they appear to be: monster-themed, panty-obsessed harem romantic comedies centered on a boy who accidentally enrolls in a school for monsters. Accept them on this level or you'll find nothing worth watching here.

Dragon Ball Z Blu-Ray 1.2
Will Goku and his friends train tediously for far too long? Will the Saiyans' arrival spark a long series of pointless preliminary battles? Will none of this matter at all when the veins start popping and the energy blasts start flying? Is the pope Catholic?

K-ON! The Movie
It succeeds in its attempt to please fans across the spectrum, drawing even the most unfamiliar viewers into its world while also providing more than enough of what hardcore fans want to keep them happy.

Shakugan no Shana III (Final) episodes 1-12
The story picks up right where the second series ends in a thrill ride that established franchise fans will not want to miss. Although the story stands on some shaky ground, the action component is good enough to carry the series so far.

Fairy Tail Blu-Ray + DVD 2
Fairy Tail suffers from the same production flaws as before, with cost-cutting animation and bland background music ... but a more substantial storyline makes it easier to overlook these shortcomings.

Kamisama Kiss GN 6
Kamisama Kiss' latest English volume takes the promise of volume five and expands upon it. Despite a slight artistic decrease, the story remains engaging and by turns funny, touching, and romantic.

D.Gray-man Illustrations Artbook
You don't have to be a D. Gray-man fan to enjoy this book. While the images will make more sense if you are, Hoshino's work is attractive and artistic enough to stand on its own with no previous story knowledge.

Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei GN 8
Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei is like having a witty, loquacious friend to lean on, someone who can voice all the irritations that drive us mad in our daily lives. Really, who needs a therapist when you've got Mr. Despair?
