Evangelion 1.11: You Are (Not) Alone (Blu-ray), Early Review

Evangelion returns.  After a long wait (and avoiding the DVD version to wait for the Blu-ray for many people, myself included) the first of the new Evangelion films has made it to Blu-ray in the USA.
 

 
With the series hitting 15 years old, is the Rebuild of Evangelion something to look forward to?  And after quite [...]

Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers (Blu-ray), Early Look/Review

Eureka Seven is back… in movie form.  Eureka Seven: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers (long enough title I think) is a new adventure with Renton, Eureka, and the crew of the Gekko.
 

 
I’m sure all the Eureka Seven (I certainly won’t be using the full title every time in the review…) fans already ran off [...]

Soul Eater: Part 1, Early Look/Review

Working for the Grim Reaper himself can’t be the easiest job now can it?  Which is why he founded a school to… wait… Death runs a school?  Sounds a bit iffy for my tastes.
 

 
In fact, when I first heard about this show a couple years ago, I wrote it off completely.  But having arrived [...]

Dragon Ball Z: Dragon Box 1 Review

 
In 1999, Pioneer began releasing the edited TV version of the first two dub seasons of Dragon Ball Z on DVD. In 2000, FUNimation began releasing their own uncut, bilingual DVDs of the series, starting with the third dub season. In 2005, after the rest of the series was finished, FUNimation began releasing bilingual, uncut [...]

Sands of Destruction: The Complete Series, Early Look/Review

 
Back with another anime DVD to review, this time we have a Funimation show, via a Sega game… Sands of Destruction.
 

 
Sega doesn’t normally get the high marks for quality they used to long ago, so can a Sega based anime work out?

Siege #1 Review

 

In the immediate aftermath of Dark Reign comes Marvel’s next big crossover event, Siege. This event is being hyped as perhaps the biggest, most important one in years for the Marvel Universe; a culmination of everything since Avengers Disassembled, and the end of an era. It’s an awful lot to live up to, and comic [...]

Linebarrels of Iron: Part 1, Early Look/Review

Back on a new computer with a new review.  This time we have Gonzo popping up with the story of a boy and a mech (a story no anime fan has ever heard before…)
 

 
So does Linebarrels of Iron and the story of a boy and a mech show us anything we haven’t seen in the [...]

Ministry #1-3 Review

 

 
We recently received a few issues of an independent comic series to look at called Ministry, by Lara Phillips. As a big departure from our usual Marvel or DC reviews, I definitely wasn’t sure what to expect going in. Let’s see how it turned out.

Blackest Night Part 1 Review

After much build-up and hype, DC’s big Blackest Night event finally began this summer, and is roughly halfway over now. The Green Lanterns, as well as numerous other heroes, are put to the test by the appearance of Black Lanterns — fallen heroes revived to extinguish all light from the universe. One could call it [...]

Naruto Shippuden The Movie, Early Look/Review

Another year, another Naruto movie on DVD.  This time it’s based on Shippuden though, so everyone is a little older and a little wiser (well not really wiser…)
 

 
Shonen movies are always stuck in that loop of wanting to be ‘the big movie’ version of a show, and then having to reset to point zero at [...]
