Death Note -- Review ★★★★☆

Everyone's seen Death Note, right? This series jumped the pond proper hardcore back when that was still possible, before anime became re-stigmatized for being weird loli stuff. And those of you that…

Danganronpa -- Game Review ★★★★☆

Hey, it's my first video game review for Anime Hipster! I will mention some things about the anime along the way, but I primarily decided to talk about the game here instead. There are several reason…

Another -- Review ★★★★★

Another is probably my favorite anime of 2012. Not only because of Mei's cute eyepatch, but also because it covers all the bases for horror, thriller, and mystery, and does so in stunning fashion. I'…

Bakemonogatari/Nisemonogatari -- Review ★★★★★

Shaft is easily my favorite animation studio, and Shinbou Akiyuki is one of the best directors in the business. Their recent work is instantly recognizable for its stunning art style. Their work is p…

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magika -- Review ★★★☆☆

I really wanted to like this series, and it seems like everyone else did, so maybe I'm just crazy, but I have some pretty serious problems with Madoka. I won't say it's an outright bad show, but that…

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni -- Review ★★★★★

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (a.k.a. When They Cry) is crazy good, even if it takes a while to ramp up. But there's plenty of room to ramp up, since it's freakin' 60 episodes long across four series, an…

Clannad -- Review ★★★★★

Kyoto Animation has a strong track record for producing top-notch TV anime, and though they are probably best known for series such as Haruhi and K-ON!, Clannad stands out to me as the brightest gem…

Junji Ito Collection -- Impressions

This is a new anime series I've been eagerly anticipating, as I greatly enjoy Ito's work, but I would be lying if I didn't admit to some initial feelings of disappointment with this adaptation. Someh…

School Days -- Review ★★★★☆

School Days isn't entertainment; it's an experience. And I kinda feel like the first rule of School Days is don't talk about School Days. But it's another great Hipster series, so I have to write abo…

Nazo no Kanojo X -- Review ★★★★☆

This is pretty much the perfect Anime Hipster series, so I'm making it my first proper review. Part of the general appeal of anime is that it's weird. Japan is weird..... But occasionally an anime wi…
