Midnight Secretary GN 1Sensual, fun, and about grown-
Btooom! GN 3Btooom 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 & 5On the whole, Jiu Jiu is a disappointing series.
Demon Love Spell GN 3Demon 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.

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

Step Up Love Story 1 Sub.DVDIf you want a simple, sexy, surprisingly sweet bit of fun that will not strain your brain, and you like generous amounts of highly explicit fan service, then the first half of this 2002 OVA series may be worth a look.
