Petshop of Horrors Review



Petshop of Horrors is an anime adaptation to the horror themed manga made by Matsuri Akino. The story stages at ChinaTown located in Los Angeles California. In this area a very peculiar petshop is found owned by a mysterious individual named Count D. The pets being sold in this petshop are bizarre creature that somewhat similar to humans or a humanoid. Count D  Sells these "pets" along with a contract which usually differ by the type of pet his customer orders. The most important among the 3 points in the contract is to avoid Showing the  "Pet" To someone other than the buyer it self.  The series has a total of 4 episodes. Each episode is a stand alone episode that contains a new story and new pet that was bought. The main characters are the same through out the series but there are new characters added just like the clients.



This anime is really short but super interesting. For me i cant really consider this anime as a horror anime since im looking at this as a sci/fi fantasy type of anime ( just my opinion ). At the onset of the series they throw in a really big surprise. Even if the animation is a bit dull and old, the story otherwise is rich in ideas. i believe that the horror side of this story, are the humanoid being sold by Count D. Even if the episodes of this anime differs from the other, it is really worth the watch.

I'll rate this anime 9/10   4 episodes? Really? I Want More!!!

With the entire city under the hands of Harry MacDowel, Beyond the Grave must put an end to the tyranny of Harry and his Organization. But can Brandon Heat point same gun at the person he once was his bestfriend? This anime is a 26 episode anime with crimes, sci-fi,actions and drama. Well to tell the you the truth just for me the first episode is kinda boring but don't be fooled by it because the other sequence will leave you hanging so catch up on our main character as he venture and deal with his amity.

Buzzer Beater is a 13 episode anime adaptation to the work of Takehiko Inoue which was serialized in Shueisha. The manga itself can also be viewed in Takehikos's Webpage in  Japanese, English, Chinese, and Korean. Buzzer Beater is one of the many basketball themed animes. The series Center Hideyoshi Tanaka, a basketball prodigy at a very young age. Hideyoshi plays with the human team to compete in the inter galactic basketball games. All seems good about their team and the rivalries aside when hideyoshi learned something about himself. Buzzer Beater is one of the many basketball themed anime i tried watching. To be blunt, i am really confused about this anime. The plot of the anime is actually quite interesting and it had potential. but i am not sure if this anime could go head to head against anime with the same genre. Let me start with the "good" part. The animation of the series is really good. Watching the series actually  gives you a bit of thrill and suspens
