Paranoia Agent Review
Satoshi Kon’s Paranoia Agent is a fascinating rollercoaster of a psychological thriller that expertly ties its character-driven story together into the realms of insanity and the paranormal to the point that you begin to question your own sanity.

Kokkoku: Moment by Moment Review

Kokkoku: Moment by Moment Review
Kokkoku: Moment by Moment throws in a lot of interesting ideas around the consequences of stopping time, life and death amidst a cat-and-mouse game plot that sees one woman try to rescue her family from a crazed religious cult. However, it fails to execute on its potential as it struggles with poor pacing, gaping plot holes, and finding an ending for its characters.

ERASED – Part 2 Review
After a sadly long eight months wait, the second half of the 2016 hit ERASED finally makes it to disc here in the UK. After such a promising first half, does the series get the big pay-off it deserves? Read on to find out!

With a lovable cast of characters, superb animation, and a real attention to detail, Hyouka comes highly recommended by me. It might sound boring on the surface but give it a try and you’ll find something truly fascinating.

Durarara x2 Shou (Episodes 1-12) Review
Durarara!! x2 Shou is a series that definitely repays repeated viewings. It sets in motion several interconnected stories and nothing really gets resolved in these first twelve episodes. The US translation/dub is a real bonus when it comes to getting the most out of its delightfully, frustratingly convoluted plot strands.
