Short Peace has 4 short anime films : Combustable , Possessions, Gambo and A Farewell To Arms. It is definitely not for kids or most teenagers as it is rated MA (Mature Audiences). The animation looks amazing! If you're an anime geek like myself, and enjoyed film collections such as Memories and Neo Tokyo, you'll want Short Peace as well. :D
Shana and Yuji continue their training to fight against evil in season 2 of Shakugan no Shana! Great animation and action scenes! The set has both DVD and Blu-ray so that anyone with either a DVD player or a Blu-ray player can watch it! :D

This release from the chilling anime series Gunslinger Girl includes all 28 episodes of the show, as well as five OVAs, following the story of the girls of the Social Welfare Agency -- who appear from the outside to be mere orphaned schoolgirls, but are actually trained to be cold blooded killers.
Having already seen this great anime series on both IFC and on older DVD sets, I regretted giving this series up. So, naturally I decided to buy it again. This set has both seasons plus the OVA (Original Video Animation, most likely never aired on TV). :)
It's about adolescent girls rescued from death by an Italian government agency only to become cyborg assassins brainwashed to work with a partner (or "handler"). Slightly philosophical, well written story ,great action and interesting characters make Gunslinger Girl a must-watch anime series. :D

This release from the wacky anime series Slayers' fourth and fifth seasons - also known as Slayers: Revolution and Slayers: Revolution R -- includes all 26 episodes from the seasons, following the cast of the original Slayers series as they reunite for the first time in ten years to wreck havoc and run from the law.
The final 2 seasons of The Slayers are a laugh riot! If you're a fan of classic anime and especially of The Slayers, you'll want to add this to your collection before it's sold out! :)

As an anime and Studio Ghibli fan, I had been waiting since I first heard of From Up On Poppy Hill to see it. Since the theater near my home never played it (limited release) , I waited for the DVD. It was well worth the wait : the story (written by the great Hayao Miyazaki and directed by his son Goro) is a well written realistic look at Japan changing after World War II , but not wanting to completely let go of their past. :)

Welcome to a mysterious world that is more than meets the eye. This world is made up of four nations, each of which spiritually embraces a native element: water, earth, fire or air. Within each of these nations, there exists a group of men and women referred to as benders who have an inherent ability to wield their nation's element and gain supernatural powers. In every generation, there is one bender who can manipulate all four elements. He is known as the Avatar.Harness the powers of the earth's elements and battle highly dangerous enemies as Avatar. Customize your character by improving your bending skills and upgrading your abilities. Explore a mystical world by interacting with various characters and environments from the popular show, and help improve the quality of life for all creatures in the Avatar: The Last Airbender video game for Nintendo Wii.
This is the first Avatar: The Last Airbender game for the Wii, so the graphics aren't as good as the 2nd & 3rd games (The Burning Earth & Into The Inferno). However, it's a fun game for those who are both Avatar fans and who are fairly new to the Wii like myself. Younger audiences might also enjoy the game as well, and parents will enjoy that there's no blood or excessive violence in this game. :D
