games
Heidi tries out the classic 90s arcade series Cotton, a witch-led game where fairies' lives (and exotic candy) are on the line!

Anti-Gravity Boy GN 1-3
manga

anime
Stellvia has long been a series that I thought deserved more love than it got.

Tatsuo Sato's (Martian Successor Nadesico, Bodacious Space Pirates) 2003 original anime and science fiction tale of teens in space never really found much of an audience, at least in the English-speaking anime fandom, and it's a shame.
