Katsugeki Shoujo Tanteidan (Anime) add

Esta review también está en español.

Katsugeki Shoujo Tanteidan (KST from now on) is a veeeeery long 30 min OVA, created in the mid eighties by TMS. In this OVA they didn't aim for greatness, that's for sure. Just to begin with, KST can be translated as "Girl Detective Club"... and I can think of two things wrong with that title: there is no club, nor detectives. But don't worry, there are girls...

The... hmmm... story, I suppose, shows us Yuriko, Midori and Shizuka, three friends that study (and live) in Katrina, one of those typical ginormous and rich academies... But the wealth wasn't enough for read more

No Littering (Anime) add

Esta review también está en español.

After more than four years of nothing... Nagao Takena's back, with a pack of new videos full of gore and clay! From all his new works, I choose to start with this one, for one simple reason: it has a powerful aesop!

No Littering (a name that need no explanations, I think) try to make people aware of the dangers of pollution. We see a young couple, casually littering either because they're ignorant, lazy, or complete asses... and for that, they will pay the price. Not the long term one, that involves the destruction of the environment and the extinction of read more

Seiken Sensou-hen is the second saga of OVA of Fuuma no Kojirou, one of the not so popular stories of Masami Kurumada, the creator of Saint Seiya. This time, once again, we have various fights, flashy techniques, deaths and lots of bleeding foreheads. So let's begin... but, before that, a reminder: this is a sequel, so if you didn't watch the first part, don't read, since, well, there are a few minor spoilers from part one. Ok, now for real:

SS-h's story shows us that, almost immediately after the war between the Fuuma and the Yasha, Kojirou clan's leader, and read more

Tenshi no Wakemae (Manga) add

Esta review también está en español.

One shots are fascinating, in the sense that they manage to tell a story in just a few pages. Resolution has to be quick. That's especially true for those with less than ten pages, in which character development and complexity in general are sacrificed in exchange of style, originality, or at least, a plot twist that surprise the reader.

Tenshi no Wakemae (also known as Angel Share) is about a man who killed himself, and now is in the bar "purgatory". He orders a drink, while waiting for his sentence to go straight to hell for committing the sin of read more

Detective Conan vs. Wooo (Anime) add

Esta review también está en español.

In this ONAS, we have yet another intellectual challenge for lil Conan. In his apparently series of neverending adventures, he faced countless villains (which stars between one and three episodes), mobster, Kaito Kid and even Lupin III... but now, Edowaga's facing the Wooo. Who's the Wooo? Is... a TV (a Hitachi one, btw). Surprise, surprise, this is a commercial! But before you complain about how Conan sold out, let's see what this is all about.

There are two ads, each with a different story. In the first one, the Mouri family enjoys a new television program about detectives, in which read more

Forgotten Horror, Chapter 3: Hengentai Mayakou Karura Mau! Nara Onryou Emaki

I welcome you, once again, to this humble cycle in which we rediscover and enjoy movies and OVA that fell into the most unjust of forgetfulness. The piece chosen for this occasion changes the typical suspense of the genre, and focus more in direct and traditional action (with some glorious gore, obviously), spiced with several Buddhist elements. Ladies, gentlemen this is Hengentai Mayakou Karura Mau! Nara Onryou Emaki (which roughly translate to Transformation Repel Evil Night Travel Karura Dances!), or, from now on, Karura Mau.

The story... well, Ikeda family is read more

And is finally here. After four months of waiting, the final episode of Persona 4, where all the loose ends are tied and all the answers are given, is here. The moment of truth, resolution, explanations and final battles... and all that in only thirty minutes... damn it...

Ok, this is episode 26, and takes exactly in the moment prior to the final scene of the series: the case was solved, and Yuu Narukami prepares to return to his home. On the day before his departure, his friends made him a farewell party, where we see the whole gang read more

Ginga e Kickoff!! (Anime) add

Football Chronicles, Chapter 3: Ginga e Kickoff!!
Note: some football animes will be named in this review for the sake of comparison. This is, mostly, to see how the game is faced in each series. Of course, no spoilers.
Also, football as the real, english one (aka soccer), not the American one.

Ginga e Kickoff!! (GeK!) is the latest football bet offered in 2012. Gek! was a really pleasant surprise, not only for the release itself, but because there was already another football anime airing at the time: Area no Kishi (technically three, with Inazuma Eleven Go 2... but IE is... special). Maybe read more

Esta review también está en español.

Akumu no Elevator (AnE) is a two chapters manga made by Hanta Kinoshita. Without a doubt, this was one of the most pleasant surprises I found in a long time...

Jun Ogawa's life is about to change: his wife just phones him to tell that the baby is ready to leave her belly! Just one problem: at that time, Jun was in his mistress apartment...So, after apologizing, he runs to fulfill his role as the ideal husband. He called the nearest elevator and... everything turned black. When he finally awakes, he realizes that he is inside the elevator, with three other read more

Kaerimichi (Manga) add

It's late. You're finally out of work, school or whatever, and you are going home. Its dark outside, and kind of intimidating. And suddenly, you feel, you think, you're almost certain:

"I'm being followed"

That damn sensation we all feel at one point, in which someone is dangerously close to us... this one shot is about that feeling.

Kaerimichi (or, if you prefer, The Way Home) is a six page story in which this issue is explored. The protagonist, a young adult, feels that he's followed when he passes near an abandoned house. When he got home, he comments that to his little read more
