So, what does Nick have against Smallville's Tom Welling, hmmm? And what is the special surprise that comes with reserved copies of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom? Roy's been reading Blackest Night about the black lanterns. And what summary would be complete without mentioning zombies and Bob Marley rulez!

Bailey's Big in Japan

Bakemonogatari, produced by Shaft and directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, is a 15 episode series which started broadcasting in July 2009 on Tokyo MX. The story centers around Koyomi Araragi, a third year high school student who has recently survived a vampire attack, and finds himself mixed up with all kinds of apparitions; gods, ghosts, mythological beasts, and spirits. Light on action, Big on bizarre. Check out this review from Bailey.

Review: Soul Eater

Soul Eater, is an anime adaptation of the original manga written by Atsushi Okubo. It was directed by Takuya Igarashi, produced by Bones and first aired on TV Tokyo in Japan on April 7, 2008. Set at the "Death Weapon Meister Academy," the 51-episode series revolves around three teams consisting of a weapon meister and (at least one) human weapon. Trying to make the latter a "Death Scythe" and thus fit for use by the academy's headmaster, Shinigami, they must collect the souls of 99 evil humans and one witch, in that order or they will have to restart all over again. The anime was licensed by Funimation and who began releasing the series in four half-season DVD box sets this year.
