Review: Expelled from Paradise (DVD)

Review: Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid Complete Series (DVD)
May as well be upfront here – To call Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid ‘lewd’ is just about the understatement of the decade. This show is basically a hair’s-breadth away from being a full-blown hentai series at any given moment, and fully deserving of the R18+ rating that adorns the cover. Consider yourself warned. The yuri-tastic series […]
Review: Charlotte Volume 1 (DVD)
Charlotte takes place in an alternate reality where a small percentage of children gain superhuman abilities at the onset of puberty, with the catch that the power will disappear as the child ages. The story follows protagonist Yuu Otosaka, who has the ability to possess anyone in his line of sight for five seconds, while his […]
Review: Sonic Mania OST (Vinyl)
Sonic Mania’s captured a fair share of love on the internet and certainly stole our collective hearts away, leaving a gushing initial playthrough in its wake, but in addition to a great presentation and razor-sharp gameplay, its soundtrack performs an amazing job of revisiting classic tracks and creating new ones to accompany the additional levels […]

Video: Sonic Mania – First Impressions
I’m genuinely amazing we’ve had two amazing trips back to Sega’s glory years in 2017 – first Wonderboy, now Sonic. The result of an uber-collaboration between Christian Whitehead, Headcannon and PagodaWest Games, Sonic Mania is pure class – or at least the first 40 minutes of gameplay is! It’s so glorious we thought we’d share […]

Commemorating the twentieth anniversary of the anime, the film is a retelling of the first time Ash and Pikachu met, albeit a […]
Review: Seiyu’s Life Complete Series (DVD)
Seiyu’s Life’s premise is refreshingly interesting – self-referencial seiyu career drama/slice of life/coming of age-character based story with a big emphasis on the nitty gritty quirks of working in Japan’s highly-competitive and internationally recognised voice talent industry. As a long-time fanboy why wouldn’t I jump at the chance to check it out? Seiyu’s Life follows […]
Review: Amagi Brilliant Park (Blu-Ray)
Amagi Brilliant Park throws an egotistical and talented high school student into the shoes of a manager set to achieve impossible attendance figures at an ailing theme park. It’s certainly one of the more unique settings I’ve seen in years if nothing else, but the suffusion of supernatural magic ensures you’re still in for an […]
