The List - 6 Prestigious Art Schools
These prestigious art schools are home to anime's strangest students. 2013-10-26

Tiger & Bunny the Movie: The Beginning Blu-Ray
This roughly even mix of the first two episodes of the TV series and new content successfully converts the series into movie format, making this one of the best efforts of its type to come along in quite some time.

Midnight Secretary GN 1
Sensual, fun, and about grown-up people who act their ages, Midnight Secretary is a classically plotted vampire romance that should please fans of the genre or just those who'd like a romance that's a little more adult.

Btooom! GN 3
Btooom is not going to be a series for everyone. A darker take on the “real life video game” genre, Inoue doesn't skimp on horrific details, be they violent or sexual.

Fairy Tail GN 27
...a page turner of a volume that leaves us eager for the next installment, because while popular wisdom dictates that the hero of a shounen manga nearly always wins, what if this is the time when he doesn't?

Jiu Jiu GN 4 & 5
On the whole, Jiu Jiu is a disappointing series.

Demon Love Spell GN 3
Demon Love Spell is hardly a stand out in the shoujo genre, but it also is hardly the worst thing in creation.

Black Lagoon: Roberta's Blood Trail BD+DVD
The maid returns and goes on the warpath to avenge her master as one of the top action franchises of the 2000s continues. While not a masterpiece, this OVA series delivers plenty well enough on its entertainment value.

Gatchaman Crowds Episodes 8-12 Streaming
Crowds' finale turns the show into the superhero actioner it always promised to be, but more than that, it turns it into a sneakily ambitious forum on human nature.

Attack on Titan
Despite some significant recurring problems, this tale about humanity defending against giant humanoids intent on eating them is an intense, visceral, and graphic thrill ride which features some of anime's most effectively creepy monsters.

sole penetra le illusioni ~ Day Break Illusion 7 - 13 streaming
Generally speaking, things are satisfactorily resolved, especially for Akari herself.

Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar Episodes 1-3 (Dub)
The latest in the venerable Tenchi franchise is a light harem romp set in an elaborate alternate world and wrapped in a needlessly complicated web of politics and deceit.
