Wasn't bad at all. I inevtibaly ended up liking the other characters more than Satilizer but other than that, no negatives. I would of liked a second series considering how it ended.

Naruto Shippuden set 15
Possibly the worst bunch of episodes of the shows run so far. There is a couple in there I would think have strong shouts as the single poorest episodes.

One Piece Collection 5
9/10
Fantastic stuff! Much better than the previous two collections!
The collection started off with a kinda slow start but did pick up the pace after four episodes. The plot gets pretty damn tense during some these episodes. Them entering the kingdom to get Vivi to stop the war was pretty darn hectic. Also When vivi thought she stopped the bomb but it was still ticking was really intense and kept me at the edge of my seat! But by far the biggest highlight of this collection was the fights, and by god there are a LOAD of them. You have Luffy fighting Crocodile like 3 damn times, all being really good, You also have Usopp and Chopper vs Mr. 4 and Miss Merry Christmas, Sanji vs Mr 2, Zoro vs Mr. 1 and Nami Vs Miss doublefinger. It's a no-holds-bar fight to the death and each fight is a load of fun to watch! Usopp and choppers fight with Mr. 4 was fantastic! Probably my favorite of the bunch actually! It was more of a strategic fight , rather than a fists flying kind of fight which made it more interesting, but still did have loads of explosions aswell. Usopp can take ALOT of damage! Sanji's fight was also really good! But then again Sanjis fights are always cool! Bon Clay is such a cool character. Zoros fight was good too! I was really surprised how violent it was! And namis fight was also great, as she hasn't really done that much in the past. Luffys fights with Crocodile were awesome! Crocodile is one of the better villains in One piece IMO
Overall, collection 5 concludes the Alabasta arc, and boy what an arc it was! Great plot, fantastic characters and non-stop fighting. My favorite arc in One Piece!

Definitely one of the best, if not the best, arcs in One Piece, love it to death. I'd maybe say that the whole Water 7/Enies Lobby arc slightly tops it for me. Plus there's other great arcs like the War of the Best and I'm really digging the current arc...damn, One Piece is just the best!

Wolf Children
6/10
I was a bit disappointed in the end Had looked forward to this very much and it just didn't live up to my expectations.
I don't think it's a bad film by any means, but I expected more. For me it was lacking quite a bit in the story department. I found the opening narrative to be a bit boring it got interesting once the dad died and the stuff early on with the family living up in the mountains adjusting to the life there was probably some of the best of the film. Not that I expect every film to be plot heavy, but when you compare it to Hosoda's previous works it's lacking in that respect, I don't think it even has the same emotional impact as the likes of The Girl Who Leapt Through Time or Summer Wars or even his One Piece movie. Don't get me wrong I think Hosoda's talent still shines through quite clearly, the running through the snow scene is absolutely breathtaking, and I still think his stuff is a lot more interesting than Shinkai's. I think my disappointment is maybe more due to my own expectations and perceptions of what it was going to be. Maybe when I revisit it at a later date I'll enjoy it more.

Wolf children should of been a series cause the ending was too rushed and they could of put more in and had more intense moments in it but when we get down to it the story is about the mother who looks after them the film's not exactly about the kids but amother who is working so hard with a smile on her face the whole time even when she's facing something that would endanger her kids but I wish they'd put more in to the story like one of the people found out they was wolf's and a mob went after them and one thing leads to another and is accepted in to the community, cause that's what I was expecting

Naruto Shippuden box set 16
Much, much better than the last box set but maybe not quite up to full speed yet. Can't help feeling that something unpleasant is going to happen next, has the look of waiting for the other shoe to drop story wise.

My initial impression when I first heard of this title went something like: “Et tu, Shinichiro Watanabe, et tu?”
For the director of Macross Plus and Cowboy Bebop to do a show based in a high school setting seemed sacrilegious, a step backwards. An act of selling out even…
Oh me of little faith! I was reminded of difficulty in confining Watanabe’s works to any single particular genre, so maybe that would still be the case. It was.
The story has hints of coming of age, romance, comedy and interpersonal drama. What I really liked was how natural and unpredictable the narrative felt. On more than one occasion the story would be heading in a certain direction, only for a character to do something, say something, hear something, or see something that would change the course completely. It felt as if the characters weren’t acting according to a script, and that the writers were following their lead instead of the other way round. Better still, for a television series based in and around a high school, there was none of the associated excesses in terms of fan service, melodrama or over-the top histrionics.
My thoughts on the music: “Ah, Yoko Kanno, how I missed you!” The score was her in top form with her idiosyncratic arrangements providing an effective foil to whatever is happening on-screen that requires a musical accompaniment. Then there’s the quality of the jam sessions. Be they rehearsals, improv sessions or full-on duels, these scenes never want for musical intensity. In fact, the climax of episode 7, where Kaoru and Sentaro fill in for the rock band, is one I hope will forever remain etched in my memory.
The animation is well above average for a TV production. Movements are fluid enough, but really come alive whenever a musical instrument is played. It’s all in the depiction of the small details. In most other productions, if a character were to be shown playing a piano, the hands would be obscured in the shot so to save money on animating the finger movements. Not so here, where the camera focuses on Kaoru’s hands as he plays each individual note of the piece. It’s the same story with a drummer or bassist. Elsewhere the studio would simply loop a set of movements repeatedly. Here also we get sustained close-ups of the various hand movements. It’s as if they took the animation in the concert scene from Angel Beats and dialled it to 11.
My final verdict is a favourable one, taking into consideration how tight the narrative is, how detailed the animation is, and simply how much I enjoyed the overall package.
10/10 it is then.

It reminds me of that hentai alien from the dark but with no hentai in it.
People.from earth goes to a planet and is in hibernation for 20 year and and when they wake up.they find that there not alone.
It's aged but the animation suits it
It's a horror sci-fi
It's not bad but it's a alright anime from the late 80s.

A pretty decent late 80s sci-fi and the opening sounds powerful.
The story is similar that to gundam wing colonies and earth but it didn't conclude and left many things unanswered but il give it points for keeping me interested.

Whenever a member of the main cast starts declaring their love for the main hero character, someone else should start measuring that person for a coffin in a show like this.
