Death Note
Light and L's duel of wits hits the big screen in this live-action 2006 adaptation of the popular manga. At turns funny and disturbing, it captures the essence and main events of the story while remaining accessible to newcomers.

Pastel GN 9
Anyone who expected more than mammaries, fannies and fluff from Pastel has long since abandoned the series, so those of you remaining know—and perhaps even enjoy—what this volume has to offer: mammaries, fannies and fluff.

Gosick Vol. 1 (novel)
With elaborate explanations, clever misdirections, and a story-within-a-story, this period detective thriller has all the right elements.

Negima! GN 17
The battle for Mahora Academy is a moment where Ken Akamatsu threw in everything he could think of, and with the sheer level of grandeur and excitement, it actually works.

Witchblade DVD 6
With this potent and surprisingly emotional wrap-up, Gonzo has accomplished something truly remarkable here: it has taken a series that could have easily been a flashy but forgettable piece of trash and given it real heart and soul.

Buso Renkin DVD
An ordinary Joe (surprise!) is granted super-powers to fight an evil organization in this uninspired shounen fighting series. Benefits from a strong female lead, a down 'n dirty sense of humor, and a spot-on dub, but nonetheless remains derivative to its core.

Tokyopop Manga Creator 2
If you enter the program expecting a comprehensive imaging software package like Photoshop, you're bound to be disappointed. But if you're an aspiring young artist taking your first steps into the foray of comic creation, Manga Creator might not be a bad first step.

Kashimashi ~Girl Meets Girl~ GN 4 and 5
Despite dragging things out in the wake of a major previous plot revelation, these two volumes ultimately deliver a strongly dramatic and emotional resolution to the central love triangle. A solid ending for a lovely little yuri series.

Short Sunzen! GN 1
There are many ways to make a school romance work. This is not one of them.

Fruits Basket GN 19
For those who found the lengthy explorations of secondary characters and tantalizing glimpses of Kyo and Tohru's slowly evolving relationship in the last few volumes to be exquisite torture, this volume will be giddy, triple-hanky bliss.

Gundam: Char's Counterattack DVD
...stands out as fine example of what makes this series so special.
