Spice and Wolf was the anime that proved to be that a well written romance can exist in the anime world, without resorting to cartoony comedic devices and waxy melodrama. Truth be told, even as a hetero male, I have fallen madly in love with this series, and the second season was an incredible thrill ride to compliment the slow-paced romance the first series presented.

(Editors note: One of the ONLY series to ever receive a 10 from me) The second season of Spice and Wolf plays out very similar to the first, except some minor changes. For starters, the storyline... See full review

Samurai 7 was an anime that was full of great highs, and horrible lows. I have not seen the original "The Seven Samurai" movie (which is nuts, considering I'm such a cinema lover), so don't expect me to draw any similarities between the two.

Wow, I don't even know where to begin. A note for all of you abotu to read this, please read the following paragraph before ditching this anime. I am a 21 year old man, who enjoys Anime on a mostly technical stand-point. I like my dialogue well translated (subbed), I like my story lines to be literary sound, and I like my characters to be dynamic. That being said, Shiki is the greatest title I've seen all year. The greatest part of Shiki is not what is presented at face value (which is a gorey, depressing story of vampire rebellion, and later genocide against them,) but rather the dakr undertones that...
