I just received another big batch of titles (Shuffle, Black Blood Bros, and more), so I’ll just take care of some of my pending reviews in one fell swoop. I’ll be back with a full review of Glass Fleet vol 6 in the coming weeks. On to the reviews.
School Rumble vol. 6

Operation Pussycat movie review

by Chris   ⋅   April 26, 2008   ⋅   Comment now

Director: Ryuichi Honda
Starring: Kei Mizutani, Nao Iguchi
Genre: Indie, Bad Ass Chicks, Japan, Action
Let’s start with the positives first. I think, outside of experimental art and music DVDs, Operation Pussycat boasts THE best DVD cover art of the past few years. It’s simple, clean, instantly catches your eye… It just pops. Cult DVD distributors would [...]

Witchblade, Vol. 5 anime review

by Chris   ⋅   March 8, 2008   ⋅   Comment now

Given the progressive increase in quality and intensity of story and action across the four previous volumes of Witchblade anime, you would think Volume 5 would be nothing short of mindblowing (If you haven’t already, please check out my previous reviews of the witchblade volumes 1, 2, 3, and 4).The last disc alone saw the [...]

Witchblade Vol. 4 anime review

by Chris and Kris   ⋅   January 23, 2008   ⋅   Comment now

First things first, if you haven’t viewed Witchblade Vol. 3 yet, you might want to skip this review. The episodes presented here are impossible to talk about without spoiling the end of that last disc.

Episodes 9 through 12 see Masane as Takayama’s date to an elegant defense dinner, Riko befriending an X-Con (and new revelations regarding such friends. ie: [...]

Witchblade Vol. 2 anime review

by Chris   ⋅   November 27, 2007   ⋅   Comments [2]

So, I’ve now seen Witchblade Volume 2. In my review of the previous disc I was a little nonplussed with the series, but intended to withhold judgment until I saw at least the second disc. And now that I have, does the future of Witchblade look any brighter?
Note: If you haven’t already, go back and [...]

Witchblade Vol. 1 + Starter Set anime review

by Chris   ⋅   November 6, 2007   ⋅   Comment [1]

First off, I must admit I have no prior experience with Witchblade other than a small Tomb Raider and Witchblade comic book I received way back in high school. I remember something regarding her being a treasure hunting aristocrat, somewhat like Lara Croft, and possessing some power that made some funky skimpy armor appear [...]
