.hack//Quantum Blu-Ray + DVD
While there are some interesting twists this time around, such as a medical reason for the players being targeted, it still has that not-so-fresh feeling of a recycled story that we have seen, played, and read many times before.
Grave of the Fireflies DVD
Sentai Filmworks offers up this bare-bones rerelease of one of anime's greatest movies. This tragic story of two war orphans struggling in vain to survive is difficult to watch but something that everyone should watch.
Sentai Filmworks offers up this bare-
Book Girl and the Corrupted Angel Novel 4
Book Girl and the Corrupted Angel is a bittersweet story of broken dreams and loneliness. It is also the best novel in the series to date.

Familiar of Zero F Episodes 1-6 Streaming
The main reason we stick with Zero has nothing to do with style or plot. It is, quite simply, Saito and Louise. Though even they have their troubles carrying this uneven slice of the franchise.
Princess Jellyfish Blu-Ray + DVD
In some ways, Princess Jellyfish is about making your own happy ending.
Gasaraki DVD Complete Collection
One of the most technically detailed of all mecha series returns in a collected rerelease courtesy of Nozomi Entertainment. Complex plotting, Noh dancing, and a weak love story mix with mecha action for a heavy and often intense story.

Arakawa Under the Bridge × Bridge Sub. Blu-Ray + DVD
This is the kind of anime that should never have to be excused for being too weird—not when it bursts forth with so much creative energy.
Lagrange -The Flower of Rin-ne Episodes 1-7 Streaming
Drives forward with unexpected force and at every turn reveals itself to be better-made and just plain better than was first apparent.
Cross Game GN 6
Even without superhuman feats of pitching or intense play-by-play action, this story finds plenty of ways to grab one's attention.

Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos
Ed and Al get wrapped up in a multifactional conflict on Amestris's western border in this Brotherhood movie. Though it features thrilling action and a decent story, its inconsistent artistry is decidedly substandard.

Tokyo Majin DVD Season 1
This action/horror series about magically empowered teenagers fighting off magical threats to Tokyo may provide some temporary excitement but ultimately is a forgettable production that falls well short of what it could have been due to writing flaws.
