Whee!!! The summer season is upon us and as always, I have yet to finish most of my previous season’s anime. But, considering that I still have one month of Summer Vacation left, I was able to, believe it or not, watch the first episodes of most of the anime on offer this season!
A feat deserving of a standing ovation… if I do say so myself. Anyways, here are my brief opinions on this season’s shows based solely on the first episode together with my rating.
In the immortal words of Mario, “Here We Go!”
WARNING: Absolutely 0 plot spoilers in this post! (^o^)

Rounding up the trio of Robot Damashii Evangelion figures is Rei’s Eva Unit 00. It would have been a perfect figure release if it were not for one small flaw that has nothing to do with the actual figure itself.

What better way to celebrate the third anniversary of Actar’s Reviews than with an Evangelion themed review? But instead of a reviewing a regular Evangelion figure, we’ll be taking a look at the recently released playset representation of the Nerv Base by Bandai.

A year ago, numerous Anime fans jumped on the Anime Harem bandwagon, myself included.
