| Inuyasha (TV) | Good | InuYasha is a good anime; I haven't seen the whole series on [adult swim] & probably won't. However, the characters & relationships are fun & the action & stories aren't bad. If you see it on [as], you might even like it. |

| B Gata H Kei - Yamada’s First Time (TV) | Good | It's been a while since I saw this; I had a blu-Ray/DVD combo, but no blu-Ray player. Funny, but sweet; ecchi, but not pervy. |
| Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (movie) | Good | Just above Decent; if you like DBZ & want to see the band back together, along with some new characters & killer fights, get this. However, if you're watching Dragon Ball Super, either skip this movie, or skip the 1st 14 episodes of Super, since it's a rehash of this movie. Fun movie, great to see all the old characters, plus Beerus & Whis. |
| Master of Martial Hearts (OAV) | Decent | This was interesting, in an Ikki Tousen way, with clothes ripped off through fighting. Aya is the heroine to root for, but the reveal (not clothes) in Episode 5 was a jaw-dropper. Despite the fan service, it had an interesting, but very dark, storyline. The darkness doesn't really appear until the 5th & last episode. |
| Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit (TV) | Excellent | This is a visually beautiful series & worth it for the characters & story also. It's based on the 1st novel in the Moribito series by Nahoko Uehashi (translated by Cathy Hirano & published by Scholastic). Media Blasters said on an Anime Today podcast that the anime is faithful to the novel. Action is sprinkled through the novel & the anime, but when it hits you, you know it! I'm a diehard who got up even early Sunday mornings to watch Adult Swim; it needed all the ratings help it could get. Recently bought & watched the Complete Collection; worth the wait. |
| Witchblade (TV) | Very good | Yes, this series has fanservice; in fact, call it T&A. But the core of the show that goes to the end is the relationship between Masane Amaha & her 6-year old daughter Rihoko. The first half of the series focuses on fights, corporate intrigue and yes, T&A. The last half, however, focuses on the question "What is Family?" Fights & fanservice are still there as bonuses. Worth your time & worth buying the Box Set if you haven't collected the series. |
