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.

Popotan DVD 2For an anime that was adapted from an ecchi game, it's got a surprising amount of substance, but it just can't shake off the fanservice. Whether you will enjoy this show depends on your ability to mindblock the bare breasts and cleavage jokes that lurk between the meaningful scenes.
