The series again moves deep into drama territory. The incremental evolution of relationships is a treat, while the Kyoko back-
Good intentions cannot mask the truth: broken Wii controls and frustrating game design make this a game that every gamer should best avoid.

Though essentially a teen vampire romantic comedy with an unusual twist, that twist is enough to lend a fresher feel to typical story elements. It may take a while to get truly funny but does produce a satisfying amount of laughs and drama.
Though primarily an otaku funfest, this funny, clever, and eccentric take on a girl's quest for the abnormal, and the boy she drags along for the ride, became one of 2006's biggest hits in Japan. Now the invasion of America has begun.
Nerima Daikon Brothers DVD 3
The Daikon Brothers end it here, sadly enough. There's some marginally more serious content here at the end, but it never forgets that it is, at heart, a no-holds-barred comedy. At which it succeeds beautifully.
