Welcome to the UK Anime Network Reviews Summary Page

Bleach the Movie 2: The Diamond Dust Rebellion
Surprisingly entertaining with plenty of excitement for Bleach and action fans alike.
D.Gray-Man Series 2 Part 1
Few redeeming features make this a hard recommendation, even to fans of the franchise.
Okamisan - Eps. 1-6
Although it shows signs of development as it progresses, there's nothing that really stands out within this mediocre outing thus far.

10 = No collection is complete without this title

9 = Near perfect, with some minor niggles

8 = Very good, but has one major issue

7 = Good, but has a couple of issues

6 = Above average

5 = Average. Not bad, but nothing revolutionary here

4 = Below average. Passable but not great. Wait for the sales

3 = Poor, usually few if any redeeming features

2 = Awful

1 = Disaster. Someone must pay!

Bakuman Vol. 1
Easily on a par with the duo’s previous work, while making for a nice relaxing read.
Samurai Harem Vol. 1
An ecchi comedy with some great artwork held back only by a pedestrian setup.
Spice and Wolf Vol. 1
Intelligent, beautifully drawn manga is hard to find. So thrash this little wolf for all it's worth.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Shinji Ikari Raising Project
Attractive and amusing, but certainly not groundbreaking or essential in these early volumes.

The Boredom of Haruhi Suzumiya
A fun summer read that is easy to pick up and enjoy if you're already a fan of Haruhi's adventures.
Haruhi Suzumiya Cheerleader Figma
It may not be one of Haruhi's most iconic looks, but this is still a figure ripe with potential.
Everybody's Tennis (PSP)
A family-friendly attempt at the traditional game, just don’t expect much in the way of options.
Kirakira Curtain Call (PC)
Curtain Call is a good-looking and polished follow-up to Kirakira, but it's best left to fans of the original visual novel.
