Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (Bandai version), Early Look/Review

After lots of problems in 2008, with quite a few recalls, it’s time for one of Bandai’s big 2009 products, a new year, a new start, let’s see how Bandai does with their first Blu-ray, of Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence.

Negima!? (Season 2)- Volume 1, Early Look/Review

Time for another early look.  I’m a big Ken Akamatsu fan, so I’ve been looking forward to more Negima for awhile.  The new series is interesting (yes it’s a new series, put Season 2 up there because it is still vaguely known as that to most people).

Let’s take a look at this reimagination, see what [...]

Hunter x Hunter- Volume 1, Early Look/Review

Old by the standard of most modern anime fans and companies, Hunter x Hunter is getting a release from the only company with a Shonen Jump stamp to use as they please.

Far easier to write than my review last week (what shonen adventure show ISN’T easy to lay down and watch?), let’s see if this [...]

Darker Than Black- Volume 1, Early Look/Review

A show I’ve heard people talk about for awhile.  Darker Than Black is probably one of the better shows in recent memory.
Hard review to write for alot of reasons, but the main one is this show is complex, and very deep.

So let’s take a look at Darker Than Black and see what’s what.

Death Note (Movie) DVD Early Review

Wow, nearly a month before the DVD is released.
This review is spoiler free.

Today we’re going to take a look at the very [...]

Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People- Episode 1: Homestar Ruiner (Wii) Review

The Homestar Runner series finally makes it’s grand appearance in the (commercial) gaming market with it’s first game, ”Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People- Episode 1: Homestar Ruiner”, for the Wii. Probably one of the most long awaited games for WiiWare, the game has more than enough moments, but it isn’t a perfect game by [...]

Battlestar Galactica (Classic) Episode 1 Review w/ Episode

Hey there. This is Rachel, a staff member with a wide variety of nerdy interests making my first post to the site, and in it what should be the first of many reviews from me…

As a fan of classic television, science fiction, and Lorne Greene, I probably should have sought out the original Battlestar Galactica [...]

School Rumble Season 1 Boxset Early Review

Woo, first review, and a couple days before the set is officially out also.

School Rumble is a show I really enjoy.  The singles released between late 2007 through the middle of 2008 had quite a few flaws in regards to video though.  Funimation has changed a show released as six singles into a boxset with [...]
