anime
Re:Zero shoots up the charts and threatens the top two spots - see how all your other favorite shows are faring in our weekly user rankings!

Review: Garo The Animation BD+DVD
anime
Garo the Animation is an archetypal but thrilling and often beautiful adventure.
― Garo: The Animation is an interesting property in a variety of ways. For one, it's an “adaptation” of a very established tokusatsu series - but instead of mirroring the modern format of its parent series, it's actually a period drama riffing on a fantasy version of the Spanish Inquisition. Its head writer Yasuko Kobaya...
Answerman - Why Do Older Funimation DVDs Have Multi-Angle Credits?
anime
One reader uncovers an ambitious DVD extra from years and years ago, one forgotten by time that makes little sense to modern man. Justin explains the mystery.
― Chris A asks: A handful of my older Funimation DVDs (“Rumbling Hearts” and the 2003 “Fullmetal Alchemist” come to mind) will show an English or Japanese logo in the opening titles based on what the selected audio language is. They accomplish...
Shelf Life - C3
anime
The fanservicey supernatural drama of C3 baffles and intrigues Gabriella Ekens, but is it enough for a recommendation? PLUS: all of this week's new anime releases!
― About once or twice a year, I find myself putting off watching the last few episodes of an anime series for an unreasonably long time. It's almost never because the show is bad, but rather because I have a subconscious desire for it to ...
Earl and Fairy Sub.DVD
anime
Discotek's release of this 2008 shoujo series has an appealing blend of historical romance and British folklore, plus it covers different material from the original light novels than the previously released manga. It looks a little dated, but the story definitely holds up.
― Based on the light novels of the same name by Mizue Tani, Earl and Fairy is a combination of cute, romantic, and dangerous. Set...
Fairy Tail GN 53
manga
The Alvarez Arc officially begins as Fairy Tail learns the secrets of its past. There may be more set up than action, but this is still a compulsively readable volume as Mashima plays with some old folkloric ideas.
― Spoiler Warning for Fairy Tail Zero True Love: for thousands of years of folklore, it has been upheld as the ultimate power, and even in today's fiction it occupies a mythic place in ter...
The List - 7 Twisted Wishes Gone Wrong
anime
The monkey's paw rules are simple: you get one wish, anything your heart desires, but there will be horrible consequences as a result. It's happened at least seven times in anime!
― Last week's list was all about lovable monkeys, but this week I'm taking on a side of our furry relatives that's a whole lot more sinister: the Monkey's Paw. Thanks to a famous short story by William Wymark Jacobs, this ...
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Novel 5
novels
Danmachi's fifth volume takes us deeper into the Dungeon than ever before as Bell finds himself out of his depth and Hestia breaks a major rule to find him.
― What is it that keeps Is It Wrong to Try to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon's Bell Cranell from being an obnoxiously overpowered hero? He certainly has many of the traits of those Gary Stu like figures from other series: insane luck, amazing abiliti...
