 | Narutaru
The Narutaru manga is better known in the West as Shadow Star
after being translated in English by Dark Horse comics, and is finally animated
as a TV series; prompting the question how much of the explicitly violent and
psychologically damaging sequences from the manga will remain intact. The anime
starts out innocently enough with the lively young girl named Shiina visiting
her grandparents and encountering a strange starfish-like creature she names Hoshimaru
("round star"). Thinking she just got a strange new pet, she soon realizes
that there are more of them and that their owners aren't always as friendly as
herself. |

Ranma and Lela get their original bodies back? (Written by Hybrid) |

Maniac
Coming from the creative
mind of Wataru Yoshizumi (of Marmalade Boy fame), comes another romantic, schoolkid,
drama filled show. Ultra Manic centers around Ayu Tateishi and Nina Sakura who
are both eighth graders at Hideo Middle School. Ayu Tateishi is your typical eigth
grader, who lusts over the school's ace basebal player, Tetsushi kachi. Nina on
the other hand isn't your typical eighth grader, as she is really a witch in disguise.
With all the story elements now in place, get ready for another fun filled, mahou
shoujo series. (Written by Hybrid)
