Manga Review: Nora: The Last Chronicle of Devildom vol 9: Null and Void.
Nora – The Last Chronicle of Devildom is about the forced compact between Nora, the Cerberus, a legendary demon also known as the vicious dog of disaster and Kazuma Magari, a demanding high school student. In order to give him some “training” in the human world, his master the Dark Liege entered him into a pact with Kazuma. Now Nora must ask for authorization when using his own magic, and Kazuma can restrain him by declaring "I forbid". This causes Nora's collar to choke the poor, troublemaking guy.
DVD Review: Sands of Destruction, The Complete Series
So you've had a rotten life, you're dominated by a race of beast men that would just as soon kill you as look at you. Everything you hold dear seems meaningless because the most important person in your life was killed trying to change the world. What would you do? If it were me and I had access to the power to destroy the world, well, I would use it and do just that. I would destroy the world.
Blackest Night
After the awesomeness that was Blackest Night 6, The side stories are just not that good anymore. Don't get me wrong, they're worth picking up for sure, but damn issue six was a thrill. If you haven't started up and you like superhero comics even a little bit, plan on picking up the trade when it ships. We've got to assume that will be rather soon after the release of issue seven.

TV Review: Chuck Season Three (Episodes 1-5)
The fans have spoken and Chuck, one of the best shows on television, has made its return to NBC for Season Three!
Thanks to an amazing fan campaign and the decline of people who actually care about Heroes, NBC realized the importance of this little spy show and has truly given it a chance to shine. Chuck advertisements have been all over the place and these days, marketing is everything. When I arrived home last week I found a Fedex box from NBC Universal with the Chuck Press Kit, containing the first five episodes of Season Three, a secret spy kit, digital voice changer, and super secret spy glasses! The episodes alone would have been cool enough, but I do love my spy kit.
Blu-ray Review: Battlestar Galactica- Season One
The Cylons are coming! The Cylons are coming! They're here.
Battlestar Galactica: Season One has made its way to Blu-ray, and it is
truly glorious. This is a show that was meant to be watched in high
definition. It is amazing how different the episodes look compared to DVD. I need to start out by mentioning that I do indeed own all of BSG on DVD. It was a series that I felt needed to have in my collection and I wanted to relive it before the final season aired. Now that this Blu-ray set is in my hands, I have the desire to own it all on Blu-ray.
Movie Review: The Book of Eli
Apocalypse: a prophetic revelation, especially concerning a cataclysm in which the forces of good permanently triumph over the forces of evil. Aka the end of life as we know it. But is that necessarily a bad thing? Perhaps it depends upon the world as it is at the time of the apocalypse, and what sort of life is being led.

DVD Review: Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne The Complete Series
To the untrained eye, Rin Asōgi looks like just an average office lady out doing her job, but to those who truly know Rin, they can see that she is actually a private investigator who runs her own PI agency. She'll take on any job, no matter how big or how small, and always succeeds despite all odds. Maybe it is because she has two advantages over her competition: Rin is a capable fighter, and is virtually indestructable. She is an immortal being, unable to die, always fated to come back to life and stay looking the same age for all of eternity. With her bubbly assistant Mimi at her side, Rin will explore the darker side of Tokyo life to bring justice to her clients – until her own secrets from the past come out to haunt her.
