The X Button - Might Be Wrong
games
This week: a look at the good and bad of Mighty No. 9! Plus Konami’s latest problems, Final Fantasy’s newest nostalgia bait, and some Fatal Frame lingere controversy!
― I could talk about Hideo Kojima leaving Konami, about how the next Harvest Moon War will shake out, or about how neat Undertale is. However, there are more pressing concerns. Fatal Frame: Maiden of the Black Water is out in North Ame...
Aldnoah.Zero Part II Blu-Ray
anime
The conclusion to Aldnoah.Zero's first season is heavy-handed with its use of symbolism but still effective as it brings events to a haunting conclusion.
― What is the point of fighting in a war to avenge people who died fighting in a war? This is the question that Aldnoah Zero never quite comes out and asks, and yet it seems to be at the heart of the second half of this first season of the show. It'...

anime
Our resident Gundam expert is here with a complete guide to the ENTIRE Gundam franchise, with pointers on where to start if you're new and which among the dozens of series is worth your time!
― You don't have to be a Gundam fan to get the most out of the latest Gundam series. Iron Blooded Orphans, the latest installment in the franchise, is entirely standalone, taking place in its own setting apart ...
Review: Attack on Titan Part II: End of the World
live-action
The conclusion to the controversial live-action Attack on Titan films has arrived; Hope Chapman loved the first installment, but does the second film live up to the promise of the first? That's a tough question.
― Attack on Titan Part II begins with an unusually long, TV-style recap montage of the first film. On the one hand, it's been about a month since that first movie came out, so maybe the audie...
Review: Yoshi's Woolly World
games
After two decades of mediocrity, Yoshi finally delivers a worthy follow-up to his most beloved classic.
― A personal litmus test for what makes a truly superb action/platform game is how memorable individual levels are. After all, when you're zipping through stage after stage, bouncing across dangling lifts and bopping bunches of enemies, things can start to blend together after a while. The best pla...
Please Twins! DVD
anime
One house, one guy, two girls, both claiming to be his long-lost twin sister. Spoiler alert: there are some sexy misunderstandings.
― Please Twins! Is the 2003 sequel to 2002's highly popular Please Teacher!, although in this case the term “sequel” is being used loosely. The story is set in the same location as its predecessor, with its events taking place about two years after Teacher started, and m...
Answerman - Why Are OVAs Formatted Like TV Episodes?
anime
OVAs are straight-to-video animation, so why are they frequently formatted exactly like television shows?
― Alec asks: I am a big fan of both Gunbuster and Diebuster and have noticed that both contain an opening video and framing for a commercial break. I am assuming that Diebuster was merely following the lead of Gunbuster in this regard. But as for Gunbuster, was this put in place in case it ever ...
Shelf Life - Don't Panic
anime
It's a bountiful cornucopia of this week's anime releases, plus fresh reviews of Argevollen and Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu!
― I'm going to take a brief detour from my usual quips and observations to point out that the Mets and Cubs are playing one another for a shot at the World Series. I don't follow baseball as closely as I once did, but that's still an amazing clash of perpetual underdogs. If some...
K-ON! Season One Blu-Ray
anime
Fresh out on bluray, K-On! returns to enjoy a few more lazy afternoons, but does this recently-minted classic series hold up in 2015?
― So here it is. The big moe specter, that harbinger of slice of life disaster, K-On! Considering the show's reputation as Patient Zero for a specific commercial trend, you'd almost expect the show itself to be either magnificent or terrible - after all, depending on y...
