Yeah, Busou Renkin has finally ended. I expected Victor to die at the end but never expected him to be still alive and manage to turn back into a human. Anyway, Kazuki and Victor are fighting non-stop at the moon until the regiment arrives for the rescue. Tokiko and the members of [...]

Name: Busou Renkin Genre: Action, Fantasy Year: 2006 Rating: Enjoyable Muto Kazuki is an ordinary high school boy however one day he attempts to save a girl being attacked by a monster. Unfortunately he dies from this heroic act. The girl on the other hand is far from ordinary. Tokiko Tsumura is a member of a select group who deal with the monsters known as Homunculus. Buso renkin (weapon alchemy) are the only types of weapons that are able to defeat these monsters. These weapons are called forth with the use of Kakugane's that were developed in the process of creating the Philosopher's stone. Whilst generally Kakukane's are used as a means of killing a special Black Kakugane can be used to bring life.

Mother died, and father disappeared…why do I feel I’ve heard this somewhere before? It’s funny how obsessions come and go- earlier this week I was briefly addicted to the children’s Flash site Club Penguin, but a mere two days later I had exhausted all its possibilities and found it quite boring. What will next week’s obsession [...]

Whilst Tokiko and Papillon fight to decide who is more deserving of Kazuki’s love, the time has come for our hero to choose. Should he stick to the STRAIGHT path with Tokiko, continue to indulge in HARD GAY…or perhaps find a way to have the best of both worlds… “Kazuki is the only HARD GAY lover [...]

Gonzo may have cornered the market when it comes to messing up manga adaptations, but a quick look at Xebec’s catalogue indicates that they may not be the only studio who has problems adapting a series from page to screen (let us not forget the Negima fiasco). Do their original works make up for it, [...]

One more to go before the story ends… Since Kazuki has gone to the moon, Chouno has lost in motivation to live and he also lost his appetite to feed on human. A normal Homunculus will consume on human being to live but Chouno is somehow different from the rest and has [...]

A lackluster end for an anime that many considered to be inferior to the mangaka’s previous work, rurouni kenshin. Perhaps character design was a problem for some, but I thought this was a great show all the way until this fated episode, whose counterpart in the manga made me go wtf. Simply put, you just [...]

It’s a week of episodes not quite living up to their predecessors in this Round-Up- is it just the after-effect of trying to watch some Gundam Seed Destiny, or a sign that the viewing schedule needs an injection of fresh blood from the spring season? Either way, I’ve decided to drop Les Miserables and La [...]

In this episode, you, the viewer, get to choose what happens next: 1)     An Amazingly Over the Top Super Moon Battle, the Likes of Which You’ve Never Seen Before- complete with explosions and stupid attack names! 2)     A [...]
