Found anime titles to be too generic of late? Ghost Hound may be the series for you. This psychology-
Leaves you feeling like a fool in love. And in love with someone you just know is going to break your heart.
Astro Boy
It would feel right at home at 6pm on Nickelodeon after a Jimmy Neutron marathon. Not a bad film, just a pretty flawed and not particularly memorable one, especially for adults. This could've been a lot better than it is.

Chibi Vampire GN 14
Kenta and the Markers rush to rescue the kidnapped Karin, but her fate as the Font of Psyche ultimately depends on something else entirely, as this story about a dysfunctional teen vampire draws to a close. Longtime fans will be treated to a highly satisfying, if melancholy, conclusion.

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.
In Red Blinds the Foolish, est em appears to have found her voice, both literally and metaphorically. The work as a whole is artistically coherent, thematically unified—and, every once in awhile, heartrendingly beautiful.
