The List - 7 Manga Cut Short Due To Author's Health
Fans will forever be left questioning, "How does this cliffhanger end?!" 2013-10-19

Bunny Drop GN 9
It may not be the ending many were hoping for, but Unita does wrap things up fairly well.

Queen's Blade: Rebellion Blu-Ray
Nudity and gorgeous female character designs abound in this newest installment in the Queen's Blade franchise, but the series has little else going for it beyond those and a good set of accompanying Extras.

My Neighbor Totoro Novel
The existence of this novel certainly doesn't "ruin" the greatness of the anime, and in some ways it even improves on the original.

Dengeki Daisy GN 12
Motomi may not quite know what genre she's writing any more, but she's still doing it well, and for a series twelve volumes into a story that resolved its starting plot books ago, that is nothing to sneeze at.

Dog & Scissors Episodes 1-12 Streaming
By most measures Dog & Scissors is a pretty bad series. So why is it so easy to like?

Rune Factory 4
There are bigger, prettier, and more refined experiences to be found elsewhere, but few games this year have the consistent rewards of Rune Factory 4.

Tiger & Bunny GN 3
The series is finally delivering on its promise of bold superhero action, with a substantial story to match.

rain
Rain is not aggressive, and it is certainly not intrusive, the TV screen like a window onto a rain-swept street, something we observe, but only barely interact with.

Love Lab Episodes 1-13 Streaming
At its best when devising weird new delusions for its cast of romance obsessives to explore, reveling in Maki's sheer strangeness, or just lining up gags about family, friends, and schoolgirl life.

The Future Diary Complete Series DVD
Snowballs from one bad decision to another, not content to be only merely bad but really most sincerely bad, and by the end, it is irrevocably memorable.

Fruits Basket DVD 3
A show mixing in a dash of comedy, a bit of wisdom, a pinch of cuteness, and a whole lot of grief... a show that can be enjoyed by everyone who is willing to let down their guard and feel the raw emotions pouring out of the screen.
