To Your Eternity Volume 1 Review

To Your Eternity might not succeed in being the follow-up to A Silent Voice I was hoping for, but with such well-drawn artwork it's certainly worth owning if you're a fan of Yoshitoki Oima's work.

Fire Force Volume 1 Review

Overall I found Fire Force a bland, unengaging and often boring story. The synopsis led me to believe I was in for a much more interesting series than what we have.

Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You Theatrical Review

Overall, Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You is a real treat for fans of the series. While there are certainly issues that bring it down somewhat, these can be overlooked. Undoubtedly this is one of the best Pokémon movies in quite some time.

Lu Over the Wall Theatrical Review

Lu Over the Wall is a fantastic, family-friendly, magical adventure that will capture your heart. It has something for everyone: older viewers will be enthralled by the character development and messages of using music to convey feelings, while younger viewers will fall in love with Lu and her childish antics.

Otome Mania!! Volume 1 Review

While Otome Mania!! might not be a particularly realistic look at the games industry, it’s still an interesting story with a fun cast of characters. If you’re looking for a shojo series set within the world of otome game development, then this book will be perfect for you.

Beyond the Boundary: I’ll Be There Review

Beyond the Boundary the TV series is already a mixed bag, but the films feel even less good than that.

Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight Volume 1 Review

Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight seems like a promising shojo tale at first, but as I delved further into it I found it didn't quite live up to the expectations I had for it. The series wants to be a Cinderella story but unfortunately the cringeworthy comedy and huge age gap between lead characters leave a lot to be desired.

The Boy and the Beast Review

The Boy and the Beast is a perfect film to show the whole family and while it hasn’t hit the level of Wolf Children, there is still some real charm to be found here. Not flawless but still well worth your time.

A Certain Scientific Railgun S Review

Railgun's humour is still better that that of Index, but also there is some added drama to the mix.
