Puella Magi Madoka Magica GN 1On its own, the manga of Puella Magi Madoka Magica isn't going to dupe most readers into thinking that it is a story of sweetness and light. Whether it is because we are predisposed to look for the dark underbelly by now or simply because Hanokage doesn't try to hide it, the true nature of the tale is very much in evidence.
Honey Darling GNGiven a more concise pace or more books to tell the story in, this could have been Only Serious About You with a cat instead of a little girl. As it is, we have a nice story about two guys who happen to live together with a cat and an author who suddenly remembered that she needed them to end up as a couple.

Starry Sky GN 1Starry Sky starts off slow and while it does become more enjoyable, it never really achieves as much as other reverse harem tales. Perhaps the best way to enjoy this book is to simply turn off your brain for a bit and let Tsukiko's slightly insipid memories carry you away.
Cage of Eden GN 4 & 5Cage of Eden is still an exciting, engaging story of the struggle to maintain some sort of society in a harsh, unfamiliar environment. Volume five slips up a bit in our ability to buy into the story and Yamada's dim view of adults can be distracting, but with reduced fanservice and Rion's increasing competence, this remains a great escape into adventure for a few hours.
Dirty Pair: Features DVD Collection DVD
All in all, this is a very nice collection. It is equally as enjoyable for those who are coming from the Dirty Pair TV and OAV releases and for those who are curious but don't want to invest in the longer shows. While all three employ different methods to tell their stories, Kei and Yuri remain engaging heroines and even when the story isn't as good as it could be, it is always entertaining.

Lollipop Chainsaw
Is Lollipop Chainsaw worth the effort? Sometimes, it is. It is fun when, eventually, it gets its ass into gear. And it is endearing, when it isn't actively working towards ruining its main character.

Like its crew of gunrunning mercenaries, Jormungand is fast, vicious and amoral—perfect for a night out with your mommy.
Eureka Seven AO Episodes 1-6 Streaming
As a piece of sci-fi eye candy, this show is clearly a worthy successor to Eureka Seven. It's just the actual story that still needs time to prove itself.
Death Note GN 1Death Note is a surprisingly gripping and original suspense tale that raises a handful of interesting questions about morality.
