When a mighty dragon attacks, Fairy Tail’s most powerful members go missing for seven years. Once they finally return, they find that much about the Fiore Kingdom—and their guildmates—has changed. With the guild’s headquarters and reputation in shambles, it’s up to Natsu and the others to get Fairy Tail back to its former glory by accepting any jobs that come their way—like being dancing guards at a fancy magic ball and taking on the infamous Butt Jiggle Gang. Meanwhile, a mysterious girl appears with a strange item from Lucy’s father—a relic that a secret order of wizards will stop at nothing to obtain. Will this artifact ultimately prove to be Fairy Tail's undoing?

The latest chapter in the Tenchi franchise continues with an onslaught of epic mecha battles waged by beautiful space vixens! Young Kenshi Masaki has his hands full catering to the whims of an entire academy of oversexed school girls, but a darkness looms on the horizon that will soon cast his life into chaos. The mysterious and enchanting Doll, controlled from afar by a power hungry madman, leads an unthinkable invasion that attacks the nubile students of the academy from inside its once protective walls. To save his bevy of galactic playmates, Kenshi must summon the power of a Sacred Mechanoid and fight to preserve peace in a world that hovers on the brink of destruction. Should he survive, Kenshi will be mobbed by a hoard of comely coeds who want to make the hero their husband! Contains the final six episodes (approximately 45 minutes each). As the OAV Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar (2009) continues, it undergoes a major shift in tone: mecha battles come to the fore and proposals of marriage replace jiggle shots. The evil Babalun has been using his nephew Dagmyer, his brother Ulyte, and a cadre of mercenaries as pawns in his scheme to conquer all of Geminar. He unleashes a string of surprise attacks, secret weapons, and new "Mechanoids." Naturally, Kenchi defeats everything Babalun throws at him. But the viewer is often as surprised by these attacks as Kenchi and the princesses, elves, and students in his fan club. Episodes eight and nine feel a bit late to introduce the quasi-magical ancient "Shield of Gaia," or the idea that Kenchi may be the legendary "Light Type." Having wasted much of the first half of the series in pointless attempts at comedy, the filmmakers resort to long Morris the Explainer scenes to fill in missing chunks of plot. Too many elements have been borrowed too obviously from Neon Genesis Evangelion: the pseudo-mythological weapons, the designs of the "Sacred Mechanoids," the artificially created heroine, the mysterious cabal operating behind the scenes of the conflict. The series ends on a m...

Naruto Shippuden Uncut Set 12 (DVD)]]> Episodes 141 through 153 make up the second half of season six of the popular ninja adventure Naruto Shippuden. After his climactic duel with his brother Itachi, the badly wounded Sasuke is rescued by Madara, the masked leader of the evil Akatsuki--and the only other living member of the Uchiha Clan. Madara tells him that everything he knew about Itachi was false: Itachi killed the rest of their clan not in a homicidal rage, but at the orders of the leaders of the Hidden Leaf Village. But he could not bring himself to kill his beloved younger brother. Despite his injuries, Sasuke leads his Akatsuki team against the annoying rapper Killer Bee, whose body contains an eight-tailed demon that manifests itself as a bizarre ox-octopus hybrid. While Sasuke recovers from this taxing battle, the filmmakers introduce the "Rokubi and the Kinjutsu" arc, another digression from the main storyline. Naruto, Sakura, Sai, and Captain Yamato meet Hotaru, a young woman whose family created a Forbidden Jutsu that can destroy an entire village. Accompanying her is Utakata, a rogue ninja who uses a strange jutsu involving bubbles. Despite some exotic techniques, it feels like a typical Naruto subplot involving clan loyalties, betrayal, a power-mad villain, and the overriding importance of friendship. The main story picks up again in episodes 152 and 153, which aired as an hour-long special in Japan. Naruto is heartbroken to learn of the death of his beloved master, "Pervy Sage" Jiraiya, and reverts to the lonely boy he was at the beginning of the first Naruto series. His friend Shikimaru leads Naruto back from his sorrow, pointing out that they "can't stay brats forever"--it's time for them to follow the example of Jiraiya and Asuma and become teachers. The rulers of the Hidden Leaf Village and the Toad Spirits struggle to decode Jiraiya's last message, which may explain how to defeat the Akatsuki--setting the stage for the battles that occupy most of season seven.

Acclaimed artist Yoshitoshi Abe (Haibane Renmei, Texhnolyze) brings to life the existential classic that paved the way for blockbuster films such as The Matrix. Close the World. Open the Next. Decades before the internet was something people carried around in their pockets, these words introduced anime fans to a surreal existence where computer monitors served as portals to brave new worlds. Serial Experiments: Lain and its deceptively “ordinary” title character redefined an entire generation’s concept of the world wide web, prompting us all to suspiciously take note of humming power lines and central processing units. Follow along as fourteen year old Lain – driven by the abrupt suicide of a classmate – logs on to the Wired and promptly loses herself in a twisted mass of hallucinations, memories, and interconnected-psyches. Close the World. Open the Next. It’s as simple as the flip of a switch.
