Mayo Chiki! Complete Collection This story about a gynophobic boy who befriends a secretly cross-dressing butler delivers just enough on its humor, character development, charm, and fan service to be entertaining, and for a series like this, that's enough.
Strobe Edge GN 1 If you're not a fan of shoujo romance, this may not pull you in, but if you like the genre and want something just a little different while still maintaining a comfortable familiarity, give Strobe Edge a try.
Moyashimon Episodes 1-11 Streaming Moyashimon's strength is in capturing the feel of college: the freedom, the newness, the adventure; the bad roommates, the bizarre school activities, the drunken sexual experimentation. Good times.
Campione! Episodes 7-13 Streaming It's better to remember Campione! for what it does right: the rich background story, the epic scale of battle, the sheer energy of each duel. But there will always be those scenes that just don't belong.
Toriko GN 12 The ultimate manly man of the food world has returned, with his muscles bulging and his appetite whetted for ever tastier fare. This twelfth volume of Toriko's gourmet adventures isn't the most consecutive in the series to date, but it does provide plenty of action and exotic eats, both of which are part of what makes Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro's tale so entertaining.
Hellsing Ultimate BD/DVD Set 1 Pushes its action ever on to greater and greater feats of absurdity until reality lies in irretrievable tatters at its jackbooted feet. In short: totally awesome.
Venus Wars DVD This popular late '80s movie is back in print for the first time in nine years and looks better than ever. The story may be weak, but is action elements and mechanical designs justify its relatively cheap price.
No. 6 DVD The show has an interesting plot, good character interactions, an ominous air, and a light shounen-ai element to it, though this should not scare off those who dislike the genre. Sadly beautiful in places, hauntingly violent in others, No. 6's eleven episodes worth your time.
Fairy Tail GN 20 All in all, Fairy Tail's twentieth volume offers a mix of emotional content, humor, and a bit of action, as well as a chance for Mashima to show off his landscape skills and to defy gravity with a couple of Lucy's shirts.
