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.

DVD Review: Aziz Ansari: Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening
We’ve all seen him before in small roles on Scrubs and Parks and Recreations as well as the recently released Funny People, but Aziz Ansari: Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening is the comedian’s first stand-up show. Now available courtesy of Courtesy of Comedy Central and Paramount Pictures, this stand up special has nothing to do with its title but is a fast paced stand-up act that fans of his small roles as well as his attitude will love.
Yaoi Review: Electric Hands
It's bad enough that high school student Fujino's mind keeps drifting to what fine and lovely hands his tutor/fellow student Takie has, rather than concentrating upon what he is supposed to be learning from him, but suddenly every time that Takie touches him in any way, Fujino feels an electric charge run through his body, one which seems to emanate from Takie's hands! A solicitous Takie attempts to take Fujino to see the school nurse, but the boy refuses, claiming he is not sick, and he finds it disturbing that the more he thinks about Takie's hands, the more turned on he gets!
DVD Review: Linebarrels of Iron: EP. 1-12
While cutting through a protected shrine, Kouichi Hayase is killed when a giant Machina, Linebarrels, falls from the sky and lands right on him. Funny thing is that this Machina brings him back to life and bonds itself with Kouichi through it's D-S.O.I.L, an artificial regenerating muscle. This D-S.O.I.L. connects the two together and bonds them til death. If the Human should die, the Machina will seek out another "Factor" or human to bond with.
Manga Review: Pluto: Urasawa X Tezuka Volume 7
With Gesicht destroyed by Pluto, there is only one of the 7 great robots left. Epsilon is the last remaining great robot, and he is possibly the strongest of them all with his photon energy. The one major fact about Epsilon is that he is a pacifist and has managed to stay out of battles and conflicts. He has focused his life on running an orphanage for children of war, but this may be his one real weakness.
Urasawa brings out the big guns in this volume. He pushes the envelope with the struggle between war and peace. The pure pacifist versus the ultimate in killers. The cat and mouse game is played out when Epsilon leaves his orphanage to help protect the children there. This is a tactic that Pluto expects and is looking for.
