Kujibiki
Unbalance DVD 1
Colorful, hyperactive and intentionally crammed with abrasive clichés; more a comprehensive crash-course in otaku tastes than a narrative. Also contains a single, invaluable episode of the brilliant slice-of-otaku-life comedy Genshiken.

Click - May 10th - 16th
Brian's dreams of turning an inner-city urban dance center into a coffee shop for stuffy yuppies are crushed by the pluck and spunk of an assorted gang of lovable misfits and their sassy new dance moves, so he writes The Click this week instead.

Psycho Busters GN 2
Psycho Busters is never going to be considered a masterpiece ... But it's still kind of fun watching these kids blast their powers at each other until someone wins.

Gundam SEED Destiny: Final Plus DVD
If you're biting nails to the quick waiting for a sequel to Destiny, this OAV isn't it; this isn't a proper sequel, but a reworking of an already existing climax. However, it does provide a sense of closure that the original ending lacked.

Haruka Sub.DVD 1
This mishmash of elements borrowed from other fantasy and period pieces certainly looks pretty, but its merits are otherwise not enough to recommend it if reverse harem series are not normally your thing.

Hotel Africa GN 1
A unique work that successfully blends short story, memoir and personal drama ... the writing and characters are so well-developed that it reads more like an illustrated version of a modern literary novel.

Monkey High GN 1
This being a shojo romance, the heroine is surely going to be won over by the tall, lanky prince of the school, right? Not this time. The short, goofy monkey boy charms the girl instead, giving this otherwise-conventional title enough separation to distinguish itself in a crowded field.
