The List - 6 Humanity Hating A.I.
Characters in fiction have treated artificial intelligence with a sense of wary respect ever since HAL refused to open the hatch for Dave in Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, and rightfully so. 2013-06-29

Momo: The Girl God of Death DVD
A cute shinigami girl helps youths who have recently lost loved ones in this 2006 series. Though its six stories clearly strive for substance, they more commonly go down like cotton candy: sweet enough and tasty enough but definitely not filling.

Devil is a Part-Timer! Episodes 1-13 Streaming
Smart and finely balanced; calculated yet seemingly effortless; funny and self-deprecating and secretly substantial. In short: great, guilt-free fun.

Alice in the Country of Hearts: My Fanatic Rabbit GN 2
If you are a completeist or would have played every single storyline out in the original game, My Fanatic Rabbit is likely already on your to-read list. Otherwise your enjoyment of this will depend on how much you like Elliot as a character.

Arata: The Legend GN 14
Volume fourteen could reasonably be called a turning point book in the series. While it doesn't cement what Hinohara's future course of action will be, it does give us more information about past, present, and future, and seems to have galvanized the characters to make more direct moves.

Neon Genesis Evangelion [Omnibus] GN 3
In this volume, Evangelion plunges further into darkness (in a good way), proving why it remains one of the most talked-about series of all time.

Red Data Girl
A timid, sheltered girl discovers that she's the host for a powerful supernatural entity in a dark, moody drama laden with Eastern mysticism. Though still good, the series falls short of its great potential due to some late missteps.

Space Brothers Episodes 39-51 Streaming
The first of these arcs is a mission-gone-wrong adventure that distinguishes itself with winding tension, solid psychology, and fine attention to detail; the second, however, falls right back into the show's stolidly entertaining astronauts-in-training rut.

Majestic Prince Episodes 1 - 6 Streaming
Overall it is easy to see that Majestic Prince is trying. At this point whether or not it succeeds is up to the tastes of the individual viewer, but with the vague but troubling sensation that things could go wrong at any moment, there is enough to keep us watching.

Valvrave the Liberator episodes 1-6
While this original effort by Sunrise does borrow heavily from other mecha and general sci fi series, it is at times spectacularly unpredictable and enthusiastically ridiculous. Even veteran mecha fans should find at least a few weird, new twists here.

Tobikage episodes 1 - 7 Streaming
Tobikage isn't the best show out there in terms of animation, plot, or overall coherency, but it is absolutely a ton of fun.

Hanamaru Kindergarten Episodes 1-4 streaming
Hanamaru Kindergarten returns to the essence of slice-of-life humor, places it in an adorable classroom environment, and proves to the world that Cute Is Not Dead.
