Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan GN 16
Usually, a manga volume that catches the end of one story arc and the start of another ends up being a mixed bag of plot points—but this one keeps a steady focus on where it's headed.

Case Closed GN 47
Volume forty-seven of Case Closed continues the series' tradition of difficult but plausible mysteries and stylized artwork that makes for entertaining reading.

Wolfsmund GN 1
Wolfsmund pulls few punches and hits you in the gut.

Higurashi: When They Cry GN 25-26
The Festival Accompanying Arc is off to an interesting start, already full of early answers, and it is clearly going to take its time getting to June of 1983. This is both good and bad, as these are things we really want to (and need to) know, but also fosters a sort of impatience as we wait to get back to the point where we've been.

Alice in the Country of Joker: Circus and Liar's Game GN 2
Alice in the Country of Joker: Circus and Liar's Game is one of the strongest entries into the Alice world, building upon Hearts and Clover rather than just retelling.

High School DxD BD+DVD
Ample nudity and a strong musical score highlight this tale of a perverted young man who literally becomes a sexy female devil's pawn. Although merely a decent series overall, it is one of the best of recent fan service-focused titles.

Haganai: I don't have many friends BD+DVD
A group of wacky characters trying to act out a storyline that doesn't exist.

Gatchaman Crowds Episodes 1-7 Streaming

Alice in the Country of Hearts: The Clockmaker's Story GN
People who have been wondering if there are any somewhat sane male options in QuinRose's Wonderful Wonder World should very much enjoy The Clockmaker's Story.

Majestic Prince 13 - 18 Streaming
As Majestic Prince moves towards its finale, there is a sense of foreboding in the air. It feels like most of the threats have been hinted at or revealed, but their consequences are still unknown.

Noein DVD 2
The series finally explains itself, allowing it to become a thoroughly engrossing mix of hard-core sci-fi and very ordinary dramatic elements. If the first volume didn't hook you, this one almost certainly will.
