The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service GN 6
The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service may be a shining jewel in the supernatural genre, but even this masterful series has its off-days. Volume 6 is one such disappointment.

Galaxy Angel II GN 3
Unless you're a fan of the franchise and simply must know why Nano-Nano has a tail and Kahlua a split personality, or you're a sucker for any kind of harem romance, this manga is unlikely to captivate.

Hell Girl DVD 4
As restrained, elegant, and superbly atmospheric as ever, Hell Girl continues to vary its basic formula in small, telling ways but remains as stubbornly repetitive as ever.

The Wallflower GN 14
Toss any expectations beyond those for a passing diversion and some good chuckles out the window. Wallflower is back to treading water.

My-Otome DVD 5
Action, betrayal, tragedy, scheming, dark revelations, hard-learned lessons, and just a touch of comedy - what more could you ask for? The series hits full stride as major plot developments abound.
Super Robot Wars OG Divine Wars Sub.DVD 4
If you can walk away from the preposterous spectacle of the opening without a smile on your face and a spring in your step, then you probably aren't susceptible to the series' peculiar brand of muscle-headed magic.

Magikano DVD 1
Beware any series whose female lead makes the deadly procession from fatefully encountered bishoujo to mysterious transfer student to live-in maid in a single episode. Seriously, that should take at least two episodes.

Simoun Sub.DVD 2
A stabilizing cast, the emergence of Neveril from her funk, and the intriguing gender and religious issues raised by the content elevate the series from the level of a merely unusual yuri sci fi production to something extraordinary.

Kanon DVDs 2-3
More encounters with cute girls, and the big secret of one comes out, as the series reaches the halfway point. While it may be specifically designed to pander to fans, it represents pandering done right.
The Twelve Kingdoms Novel 2
The original novel on which the anime's second story arc was based comes to life with a focus on the long-absent kirin Taiki. A wonderful world and wonderful writing make this novel just as engrossing as the first one.

Dragon Ball Movies DVD Box Set (Movies 2-4) DVD
A series of condensed and retold stories from the television series, this movie box is the Cliff's Notes version of Dragon Ball: most of the relevant information with none of the finesse or entertainment.
