Glass Mask Episodes 1-26 Streaming
Glass Mask has been adapted onscreen on numerous occasions. The most recent came in 2005 with the 51 episode televised anime series from TMS Entertainment—and I am happy to report that it is an adaptation that does the vigor of Suzue Miuchi's original story, if not sadly, its visual beauty, justice.

Blood+ Novel 2: Chevalier
Spanning episodes 16-25 of the anime series, this novelization's mediocre writing merits and slavish adherence to the original story make it unlikely to be of much interest to those who have already seen the better anime version.

NANA GN 16-18
Volumes sixteen, seventeen, and eighteen may well be the beginning of the end of NANA…and boy is it going to be one absolutely wild, unforgettable ride.

True Tears Sub.DVD
As the series wears on it builds a scattershot appeal, mainly on the backs of its supporting cast, displaying a periodic tear-jerking power that belies its dreadful beginning.

Aoihana Episodes 1-11 Streaming
There are worse eleven-episode anime series out there, by far, and as yuri anime it is admittedly hard to find better than Aoihana

He is my Master DVD
Two sisters seeking a new home and employment find themselves as maids to an orphaned young teen living alone, only this one is seriously perverted and has an evil streak, in this fan serviced-laden 2005 comedy from Gainax. Despite many typical elements, it has a feisty spirit and delivers on the laughs.

Flock of Angels GN 1-3
Wings as a metaphor for homosexuality? Don't laugh. It almost works.

Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden GN 9
Reading at the best of times is like being transported to another world, and in that this manga succeeds spectacularly. And although the inevitable end is undeniably on the horizon, you will not ever want to leave Genbu's land.

Pluto GN 5
Once again, Pluto continues to impress with its multi-layered plot and suspenseful pacing, even though the key villain still refuses to show himself fully.

Shugo Chara! GN 7
Shugo Chara! works on different levels, and for those who can enjoy both the kiddie side and the edgy grown-up side, that just makes it twice the fun.
