ANNCast - Homeward Bund
We had a controversial topic this week so who better to pour gasoline on the fire than Anime World Order's co-hosts Daryl Surat and Gerald Rathkolb? Dance in the Vampire Bund edits, the rise (and fall?) of moe anime, a rejection of irony and much much more! Plus: GoGo Monster, Tortov Roddle and Media Blasters' woes! 2010-03-11

The X Button - Eclectic Sheep
This week: the problem with Mega Man 10, the last new Super Street Fighter IV character, the next RPG onslaught, and the rebirth of Metal Max, whatever that is. 2010-03-09

Handley's Attorney Comments on Obscene Manga Case
Christopher Handley's defense attorney Eric Chase addresses some of the questions surrounding Handley's sentencing for possession of obscene manga. 2010-03-02

Eureka Seven GN Collection 1
It's not just a recitation of giant robot battles and alien adventures, but an honest tale of love, friendship, and growing up, set against the backdrop of an epic planetary struggle.

Arata: The Legend GN 1
What's going on around Arata seems interesting, yet it's hard to care when he spends the vast majority of his time whining about how betrayed he feels.

Claymore BLURAY
The Blu Ray version of this dark, graphic fantasy series about blond female warriors wielding big swords offers very little that the original DVD releases did not. Though the series shows pronounced shonen influences, it is still, at essence, a very human story, and that makes all the difference.

Dragon Box Z Set 2
Does post-Vegeta-arc DBZ bog down like a fat-bottomed tourist in quicksand? Will cool power-ups and guys putting fists through each other save it anyway? Is it all worth buying yet again? Find out this and more on today's Anime Review Z!!

Case Closed: The Phantom of Baker Street DVD
It's about action-packed sleuthing, which this movie does decently at the end ... but fumbles through a painful beginning and poorly paced middle to get there.

Beast Player Erin Episodes 26-50 Streaming
Where its first half was the story of a young girl maturing into a woman, its second is the story of that woman, bullied by the winds of change into becoming the cornerstone of a new era.

Evangelion: 1.11 You Are [Not] Alone BLURAY
The movie revamp of the first six episodes of the landmark 1995 mecha series is now available on Blu-Ray, complete with Extras. It triumphs most gloriously in its intensity and ultimately delivers well as both an action-oriented piece and dramatic psychological study.

Case Closed: The Last Magician of the Century DVD
This solid, surprisingly involving mystery movie about a Fabergé Egg heist which turns complicated (and deadly!) is easily accessible even to a complete Case Closed/Detective Conan neophyte.

Blade of the Immortal GN 22
Half forward march and half lingering look back, this isn't the series' most focused installment. It is, however, a fulfilling one, particularly for long-time fans curious about where Rin and Manji's relationship may be going.

To Love-Ru DVD Collection 2
More shenanigans involving Rito, his alien princess fiancée, and the bevy of teen beauties surrounding them ensue, generating more consistent comedy and fan service gold than the first half. Not a great series, but as frivolous entertainment goes, you could certainly do far worse.

Kaleido Star DVD 1
A cute, restful waypoint between series that make you think too hard.
