I may not have any reviews for you today, but there's still plenty of backlog to go through and plenty more titles to cover, so here we go!

Tim starts us off with the social misfit harem comedy Haganai (aka Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai), which would be a really great show if it weren't so fixated on boobs. This is still an improvement over the rest of this update, singlehandedly out-starring the next two features!

That's right, the rest of this update is all about the turkey shoot. Nick lets fly with a volley aimed at the theatrical release RahXephon: Pluralitas Concentio, which entirely misses the point of the exemplary TV series and instead plays out like a poorly-handled recap episode. Noooooooooooooooooooooo!

Aiden trots out trite fantasy harem show Shukufuku no Campanella and gives this plotless, soulless, charmless, lifeless wreck the coup de grace it deserves. And you'd think something featuring characters called "The Tortilla Sisters" would be worthwhile, but alas it was not to be...

And that's that for our "five-star review day" (that's right, five stars between three shows), but next week is looking pretty good, as we await Bradley's Triple Threat on Monday. Until then: have a great weekend!

Hello again, everyone. It's time once more to bring out another trio of reviews from Aiden, Nick and myself.

Nick's offering for today is actually a half-American production made for Christian TV. The show in question is called My Last Day, which should be a good enough hint for Christians and non-Christians alike to try and guess what it's about.

Aiden looks more towards giving his funnybone a workout with Arakawa Under The Bridge x Bridge, and he seems to have found his groove within the show.

As for myself, I finally got to throw myself over Junichi Sato's own pet project, now a full TV show. Its name is Tamayura ~Hitotose~, and it's here to give the tilde curse a swift kick to the rear. Or it might have, if it wasn't so damned pleasant all the time.

Next week Nick and Aiden will return once more, but this time with Tim in tow. See you guys then.

So, we got a trio of reviews today.

First off, Nick brings us the excellence of ABe, whom a lot of you may know as the guy behind the ever excellent Haibane Renmei. That's why Nick is outraged... OUTRAGED, he says... that a good deal less people have heard about NieA_7, mostly because it's just so good.

Aiden's got his eye set on the murderous MOE, though, and he's not going to let anything silly like his review being a second opinion get in his way when he's up for talking about When they cry; Higurashi.

And, as it turns out, my review ended up being a second opinion too; namely that of Allison & Lillia, a show the Great Sultan himself reviewed not too long ago. And that somehow went completely under my radar, even though I know I've read it before. I think.

Man, I'm getting old.

Oh well, that's it for today. But we -- as in me, Nick and Aiden -- will be back this upcoming Wednesday with three new reviews. As in reviews for shows not reviewed here before. Stay tuned.

Well, two of us struck out today with our choices of reviews. First Nick didn't fare well at all with the 1991 bomb Psychic Wars, and then I fare bad with the 2011 Kamisama Dolls.

Aiden fared much, much better though, with the SHAFT comedy And Yet The Town Moves.

We return Monday for another week of 9 new reviews. See you then!

It's all good news this Wednesday, we have three series to recommend to you without too much reservation. Since life is too short for bad animé you might want to try out these:

First of all, Nick has given us another opinion on Wolf's Rain.

Next, I am very happy to brush the dust off 90s masterpiece Key the Metal Idol and give you another opinion on this classic series.

And finally, THEM veteran Carlos covers the slightly newer Magic Users Club TV. Does it live up to its excellent predecessor? Check out what Carlos has to say.

More on Friday, adieu.

Sorry for the lateness, everyone. But we have three new reviews today for Monday.

We first have Nick, who gives us a look at the first of the new crop of Neon Genesis Evangelion movies; Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone. And he seems to really dig it.

We then switch over to Aiden, who also dug Kuuchuu Buranko.

Unfortunately for The Sultan/Carlos, he doesn't fare quite as well as Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere, but he still likes it.

We return Wednesday with three more reviews. See you then!
