The new review page is HERE

Comments are welcome.

After reading your reviews which are their usual standard or being excellently written I have to say only one of them appeals to me and that is Witchblade of course.

I can understand what you mean in the reviews about die hard fans being upset about the story being changed, but being someone who has a number of the original Witchblade comics and has seen the TV series too, I think it is a good thing.

The original comics are very good and mostly revolve around Sara Pezzini and the Witchblade, but there are version of the comic which show the other women it has been with in the past. So the fact it has moved on to another person isn't really breaking any rules about the witchblade. Also the TV series which did try to continue the Sara Pezzini story was terrible as it wasn't in keeping with the style and spirit of the comic and was a poor attempt at a TV series.

I am very hopeful of this series as a new start after the poor TV series is just what I think it needs, I just hope there are others who agree with my views and it is successful.

The only other one that appeals to me in any way is Moonphase as it does sound like the story has potential to be very interesting, but your comments about the confused animation and low star rating doesn't make me want to rush out and see it.

Actually I would say there are more that interested me in your previous set of reviews which I have only just got around to reading too, sorry.

Trinity Blood, Elemental Gelade and Gun X Sword all sound like series that would really appeal to me so I will be keeping an eye out for the earlier episodes of those ones.

I'm looking forward to the 25th When Bleach Series 1 Vol 2 is released.

Great reviews as always, but not sure if any appeal to me. That one Hell Girl as I read the review started to appeal then about half way through the review I started to think I may not like it and it may be a bit dark and too sad for me at the moment.

Interesting to see about the Individual Eleven DVD.

I totally agree with what ou have written, it was a complicated story and I needed in the episode chunks to fully take it all in and undersand it. Watching it as one whole would be too much for me I think. Also as you sid any fan (like me) already has GITS 1 & 2 box sets so why would they buy this one too?

Well I think I could have guessed that one would get 5 stars from MiB, he has been looking forward to getting a copy so much he was posting in the chat box about it!

Yay more Witchblade, I really must get around to seeing that.

Also Black Cat looks interesting.
