  • Review: Chris took a strong look at Death Note. From the visual slender and the amazing potential of plot to the impressive yet repetitive story line, it was a wonderful anime experience. Defiantly worth the time(or money) to invest in. Check it out, very high 9 out of 10.

    Review:

    Chris reviewed Burst Angel: Infinity, the OVA based off of the Burst Angel series. While derivative of the main series as far as dub, music and animation it was still enjoyable mostly to fans of the series. While someone who hasn’t seen the series might enjoy it, its even more enjoyable to fans of the series.
