Buried Garbage - Dog Soldier
This month's piece of old-school trash is Dog Soldier, the awful Rambo-cum-City Hunter OAV that tries to be intelligent and fails spectacularly. 2008-07-03

The X-Button: A Bold, Daring Dream
This week submerges us deep within the new Castlevania fighter, the savagely retro Mega Man 9, the state of anime-based MMORPGs, and the long, tragic tale of Magic Knight Rayearth! 2008-07-02

Anime News Nina! - 07-02-08
When faced with stupidity, Nina has a short fuse. Who knew? 2008-07-02

Hai Fidelity - Denki Groove: J-Pop
Denki Groove is back with their latest album, conveniently titled "J-Pop". 2008-07-01

Walkin' Butterfly GN 1
It is not every day that one stumbles across a josei manga that will undoubtedly have both guys and gals cheering from the rafters for the protagonist. Run—don't walk—for your copy of Walkin' Butterfly.

Monster GN 14-15
Each chapter delves deep into its characters and draws out powerful emotions, so wherever the story is headed next, thrills and suspense are guaranteed.

Hell Girl DVD DVD 5-6
Restraint and atmosphere are still its watchwords, but Hell Girl allows itself here the luxury of letting an undeniably effective emotional climax surface slowly from its episodic tales of revenge.

CY-Believers GN 1
This shojo romantic comedy about a spunky girl who establishes a new school club partly for self-defense against an overzealous fiancé somehow manages to be more interesting and entertaining than it feels like it should be.

Mushishi GN 4
One Del Rey editor is on record saying that Mushishi “was something we had to do for the readers of tomorrow.” Read it and see for yourself why it's worth being handed down to the next generation.

Honey and Clover Sub.DVD
A whimsical romantic comedy about five art-college students, it's possessed of a sweet romanticism, tinged with melancholy, and driven by events unpredictable enough to be called realistic.

Fujoshi Rumi GN 1-2
Those not familiar with otaku culture should use caution when approaching Fujoshi Rumi. Humor that has to be explained isn't funny, and you are unlikely to fully appreciate these books unless you're already a card-carrying otaku.

Ragnarok The Animation DVD 3
Given the epic awfulness of the first two-thirds of this series, it comes as no small surprise that this concluding third actually does not (entirely) suck. It actually manages some good moments in ascending to the level of mediocrity.

xxxHOLiC DVDs 1-2
The creators must have been hoping that viewers would be too distracted by all the talking heads lecturing on about wishes and free will to notice that this anime series is undistinguished in virtually every particular.

Minima! GN 1
An entertaining little ditty of a story that just goes to show that, once again, you should never ever judge a book by its cover. Minima!, much like its meerkat toy hero, comes to exuberant life when you're least expecting it.

Princess Nine DVD 1
