In a world of spaceships, Galactic Guardians and Lost Technology, Millie Nocturne is a woman with one goal- to become number one in the universe at everything she tries. In the midst of her adventures, however, she runs into two other talented people; psi-blade wielding swordsman and mercenary Kane Blueriver, and Canal, the AI of [...]

Inukami: Perverts, Dog Girls and why I quite enjoyed the series in spite of it all

Kawahira Keita isn’t your average high school student- he also happens to be an inukami tsukai, skilled in offensive spells and contracted with the inukami Youko, a supernatural dog-girl with more than few special abilities of her own. And unsurprisingly, the life of an inukami tsukai is anything but peaceful- for when Keita isn’t dealing [...]

Gestalt: an OVA from the creator of Loveless

According to legend, many years ago, a powerful god named Gestalt was banished to Earth and sealed in an island known only as ‘G’. Determined to find the truth behind these rumours, priest Father Olivier decides to leave his order and travel to G, but when he gains a travelling companion in the form of [...]

Four princesses from the Netherworld- Liru the werewolf, Pachira the vampire, Aiko the android and Yuuma the witch- have all left their home to come and live in the human world.

Stratos 4 OVA and Advance: Well, at least it was better than the TV series

Those who recall my Stratos 4 TV review will know that I was none too impressed by the series; aside from the presence of fat cat the Admiral, I had few positive things to say to it. Nonetheless, with the spectre of completion looming over me, I decided that I may as well try my [...]

Futakoi

From top left: the childhood friends; the rich girls; the lolis; the lead; the shy meganekko; the tsundere and the sick girl; the older women. When Futami Nozomu returns to his childhood hometown in order to attend high school, he is delighted to be reunited with his friends, the Ichijou twins. There is clearly a [...]

Stratos 4: Is it wrong to watch a series just because it has a fat cat in it?

Talk to the paw. Mikaze Hanjyou is a trainee pilot for the Meteor Sweepers- part of the ground-based defence line for inbound comets set to impact with the surface of the Earth. At first, it isn’t a job that she particularly cares for, but a high altitude mission gives her a taste for the dizzying [...]

Burn Up Excess

When it comes to money, police officer Rio Kinezono is little more than hopeless- with her love of expensive clothes, living within her means is an unlikely goal. Fortunately, whenever Rio needs some extra cash, she can turn to her undercover job as a member of Team Warrior, a group of mercenaries tasked with taking [...]
