Sankarea: Undying Love GN 1Tragicomedy is not unknown in the manga realm, and Sankarea just may be a very good entry into that genre, and this introductory volume offers us sadness, hope, and humor with a dollop of fanservice to top it off.
Naruto Shippūden DVD Set 14A perfect storm of drama and action, back-
Devil Survivor 2 The Animation StreamingAll in all this is a fairly solid bit of entertainment. If you like your stories dark with a glimmer of hope, Devil Survivor 2 should fit the bill.
Severing Crime Edge Episodes 1-
Time and EternityTime and Eternity's attempt at playing anime falls to ruin at every point. Hoping to fuse games and animation into a revolutionary RPG, it instead picks terrible ingredients from both worlds.
Another DVD
Another may have its faults, such as some of the imagery and some clues being almost too obscure, as well as one or two clearly contrived plot points, but on the whole it is a well done mystery/horror hybrid.

Project X Zone
Project X Zone is a bit too comfortable in its fantasy fulfillment. A hectic battle system builds up, but the energy fades well before the game's over. All that stays are the geek pleasures of seeing dozens of previously unacquainted characters bounce off one another.

Shin Megami Tensei IV
Shin Megami Tensei IV's incrementally improved (and substantially kinder) mechanics may make it worth playing for lapsed fans who are burned out on the series, but anyone looking for the next Persona will come away disappointed.

Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
Ultimately this “stranger in a strange land” scenario from the Spring 2013 season is more an example of a series which fails to be spectacular than one which fails to be good.

Blade of the Immortal GN 25-26
Less satisfying and less artful than the Prison Arc, but when this new arc tightens its focus for a gore-soaked climax, it's still potent, frightening stuff.
Skip Beat! GN 29With it's 29th volume, Skip Beat continues to charge ahead as one of the most enjoyable shoujo series available in English.
