A perfect storm of drama and action, back-
All in all this is a fairly solid bit of entertainment. If you like your stories dark with a glimmer of hope, Devil Survivor 2 should fit the bill.
Time and Eternity's attempt at playing anime falls to ruin at every point. Hoping to fuse games and animation into a revolutionary RPG, it instead picks terrible ingredients from both worlds.
Another may have its faults, such as some of the imagery and some clues being almost too obscure, as well as one or two clearly contrived plot points, but on the whole it is a well done mystery/
Project X Zone
Project X Zone is a bit too comfortable in its fantasy fulfillment. A hectic battle system builds up, but the energy fades well before the game's over. All that stays are the geek pleasures of seeing dozens of previously unacquainted characters bounce off one another.

Shin Megami Tensei IV
Shin Megami Tensei IV's incrementally improved (and substantially kinder) mechanics may make it worth playing for lapsed fans who are burned out on the series, but anyone looking for the next Persona will come away disappointed.

Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet
Ultimately this “stranger in a strange land” scenario from the Spring 2013 season is more an example of a series which fails to be spectacular than one which fails to be good.

Blade of the Immortal GN 25-26
Less satisfying and less artful than the Prison Arc, but when this new arc tightens its focus for a gore-soaked climax, it's still potent, frightening stuff.
Zero's Familiar [Omnibus] GN 1-3
The story struggles between catering to harem fans and not sticking to the genre's conventions, creating a charming love story and overemphasizing Louise's tsundere qualities, and building a believable world and throwing magic jargon at the reader. The result is a book that is fun to read in small doses and kind of annoying at the same time.
This mixture of period drama and alternate universe science fiction is easily the single most highly anticipated new series of 2009, at least among the Western fujoshi contingent, and Viz does it justice. But this isn't just for the fangirls.
