Heroman GN 3
Heroman may show what it is to be a true hero, but it falls into an embarrassing pile of clichés while doing so.

07-Ghost GN 3
It's great to have striking poses, magical effects, shocking turnabouts, and heart-wrenching pain—but without a coherent story to hold it together, everything goes to waste.
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 Blu-Ray
This “what if” scenario is a classic disaster flick done in anime series form, one which uses compelling (if somewhat dragged out) individual human interest stories to explore the devastation of a major earthquake.
Shakugan no Shana III BD/DVD Parts 1+2
Wider in scope, bigger in scale, and better in execution, but missing some of the scrappy fighting spirit of its predecessors.
Phi-Brain: Puzzle of God Blu-Ray 1
This shonen action-styled show about puzzle-solving can definitely be entertaining, especially if one has a penchant for puzzles. However, it is also quite capable of making its viewers cringe.
Baka and Test: Season Two BD+DVD
Kind of dumb and super silly but not without its flashes of grace. Plus it's loads of fun. Who needs substance anyway?

Toriko DVD Set 3

Nisemonogatari Sub.Blu-Ray
The spectacular artistic effects and verbose discussions are back as Koyomi expands the pack of girls he's aided to include his sisters. It tries hard to capture the magic of its predecessor but falls short.
Btooom! GN 1
Violent and desperately trying to say something about it, Btooom! doesn't turn in a perfect first volume, but it is a promising one.

One Piece GN 66
While portions of this volume do drag as the Fishman Island wrap up takes a little too long, the promise of new enemies, fantasy elements, and real danger keeps readers eager for the next installment.

Freezing BD+DVD
Nudity and bloody mayhem are the norm in this dark, super-powered action series from the director of Slayers and Shakugan no Shana. Despite some substance, its appeal is unlikely to extend beyond normal aficionados of violent, sexy content.
