News Weekend Wrapup - Week in Anime [29/10 - 4/11]
This past week has been packed with news, most of which are announcements of several new projects. Last weekend was Supanova Sydney with Crispin Freeman and Vic Mignogna in attendance, who later appeared in Melbourne for Madman's 10th anniversary party. Of course congratulations to Madman Entertainment for their 10th birthday and we here at Ann.au hope the company has another successful 10 years. Now onto some news!
- Hellsing Ultimate, the OVA based closely on the original manga has been licensed by Madman, due for release in April.
- Monthly Shonen Jump has just announced a anime adaptation of Claymore.
- Street Fighter and Speed Racer are finally pulled out of limbo and announced for 2008 releases.
- New Birdy the Mighty anime has been announced, and is tentatively titled "Birdy the Movement"
- And finally the Live Action adaptation of Blood the Last Vampire has been announced and Production I.G has struck a different deal where they receive a percentage of royalties instead of a flat fee.

Higurashi: When They Cry GN 18As far as conclusions go, this arc has one of the strongest. While Eye Opening revealed some important information about the Sonozaki family in general and the twins in particular, Atonement makes us look at what information we already have in a different way.

Sailor Moon GN 4
While the story still has its logical flaws, it remains an engaging read that holds up well despite the passing of years and this volume continues to keep up both the promise and nostalgia of Takeuchi's masterwork.

Pokemon Movie: Black Dub.DVD
Overall, neither Pokemon the Movie: Black or its White counterpart really stands out from the already packed herd. While not terrible, these are films that can be safely left alone unless you or your child have a compulsion to truly catch 'em all.

Medaka Box Episodes 1-6 Streaming
It turns out that the great NisiOisin/Gainax collaboration is just another mission-of-the-week comedy. Sad, that. And boring.
Hiiro no Kakera Episodes 1-6 Streaming
Hiiro no Kakera is by no means a terrible show...it just isn't a very good one, either. With a stilted script and a team of heroes who feel incompetent, not to mention cookie cutter characters who do little to make themselves endearing or unusual, it does nothing to elevate itself above the masses.
Bodacious Space Pirates Episodes 7-12 Streaming
Like the pirate she is, Marika is chasing space treasure this time around. At six episodes this arc is twice the size of any previous arc, but it fairly flies by. Not great, but darned fun.
Innocent WThis is one excellent horror novel that also delivers on suspense, mystery and all those little things that make a book great.
