Review: Deadman Wonderland (Anime)
A while back I saw trailers announcing that Deadman Wonderland was coming to DVD. I was extremely excited, and I knew deep down that a copy would eventually make its way into my hands from FUNimation. With that in mind, I skipped it on Cartoon Network’s Toonami, and I’m glad I did, because owning the most badass series to date is pretty awesome. Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to th...[Read More]
Review: Strike Witches 2 (Anime)
I’ve said it many times before, but I’m going to say it again: I absolutely love watching anime, whether it’s via Netflix, Hulu, or via Blu-Ray/DVD. In the pile next to me of recently watched anime is Strike Witches 2, the second season of the Strike Witches anime. After watching the first season on Netflix, I was in shock at the open ending, not knowing that a second season was ...[Read More]

Review: Shangri-La (Anime)
I love anime. I can sit down for hours and hours simply watching, whether it’s the latest release or something from my past. Most recently, I watched Shangri-La, published by FUNimation Entertainment. Shangri-La is a 24 episode series that sees global warming finally reach its breaking point. The setting is the 21st century, where there is now a carbon emission trade market in order to contr...[Read More]
Giveaway: Oblivion Island + Extras
WINNERS ANNOUNCED: Congratulations to Samuel H. for winning the grand prize, and Brian Lepak for winning the secondary prize! I’m not hip with it, when it comes to anime. I have my favorites (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Trigun, Berserk, Dragon Ball Z, etc.), and I do enjoy new anime experiences, but I just haven’t got the time to keep up with the incredibly wide range of variety av...[Read More]
Review: Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt (Anime)
I got my hands on an early review copy of the upcoming anime series Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, and let me tell you, I was blown away. Still to this moment, when I think about the entire series, I picture it as an absolutely perfect show for Adult Swim, if it ever gets the chance. Trust me when I say that viewers new to the series will drop their jaws. The series is vulgar, naughty, dirt...[Read More]
Review: Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike (Anime)
As I’ve said before, video game movies can be pretty rough. At times, a movie based on a video game may have a terribly translated story, while at other times, it can cross over from one medium to the other beautifully. This time, we’re looking at Tales of Vesperia, a well known Xbox 360 RPG that I’ve played in the past. The movie version, Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike, doe...[Read More]
SpiritHoods Releases Limited Edition SpiritHoods for Guardians of Luna
SpiritHoods is well known for their animal-inspired faux-fur accessories. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what a SpiritHood is, take a look at the picture of me below. That, my friends, is a SpiritHood, and it’s pretty awesome. I’m a huge fan of the accessories that SpiritHoods creates, as are many of my friends. Who doesn’t like the occasional cute thing, especially if ...[Read More]
Review: Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker (Anime)
When it comes to the Dragon Age Universe, I’ll admit that I never really got too into the video games. After watching Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker, an animated movie from FUNimation and BioWare releasing Tuesday, May 29th, I have a feeling that’s going to change. When I first heard about this movie, I was really interested in seeing how it turned out, in spite of my lack of experienc...[Read More]
Review: Shiki (Anime)
Let’s say one day people start dying for no real reason at all in a city you’ve lived in for quite some time. It ranges from friends, other families, a few new people in town, and maybe even other towns nearby. What would you do? Is this an epidemic, or is it something else? Would you stay in the area or leave right away? I recently finished the entire series of the anime Shiki, and boy do I have ...[Read More]
Review: FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood – OVA Collection (Anime)
Lately I’ve been watching the DVD/Blu-Ray copies of the OVA Collection for FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, which features some stories about other alchemists within the series. When it comes to a series such as FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, you’re in for a grand adventure. Why do I say this? Well from the start you’ll be pulled into the most detailed series I’ve seen yet to date. The OVA Col...[Read More]
Review: Cat Planet Cuties (Anime)
What would it be like if an alien came to our world and you were the first to meet it? Now I have another question…what if it looked just like a human, yet it had cat ears and a tail and was VERY sexy? Of course, this would be any nerd’s fantasy since, let’s face it, who wouldn’t want a girl in cosplay? Lately I’ve been watching the new series Cat Planet Cuties, and I can say I’ve been...[Read More]
