Kakegurui GN 1
manga
While you wait around for Netflix to finally release this season's anime adaptation of Kakegurui, Rebecca Silverman can tell you whether the original psychosexual gambling manga is worth reading!

Tokyo Ghoul (Live-Action Film)
live-action
Tokyo Ghoul makes the jump from manga to anime to a live-action film. Does the original story's spirit survive the translation? Gabriella Ekens finds out.

Answerman - Why Are Anime Soundtracks Missing Songs?

Black Butler: The Movie BD+DVD
live-action
Can this much darker live-action re-imagining capture the campy magic of the original series? Rose Bridges finds out if this Black Butler movie's got enough bite to be worth a taste.

anime
Is this Aiz-focused spinoff worth watching, or does drifting too far from the main story take us too far away from what makes it special? Theron Martin has the answers for devoted DanMachi fans.
― The Sword Oratoria anime is based on a light novel series that is a concurrently-published spin-off of, and complement to, DanMachi, in much the same way that A Certain Scientific Railgun is related to A Ce...
