Anime Releases 10/27

Here are the releases for today (10/27) at your local Video, Book Stores or the infamous Amazon website in the US. I only review Movies and Box Sets that are coming out as this will get the most bang for your buck. I did "borrow" the summaries from various sites so you can get a brief review of the story.

This kind of a quiet week for sets. My only personal choice is for Shonen Onmyouji Complete Series as I have been watching this. I find the connection between son, father and grandfather a nice one. They all get along and interact well with one another - most of the time. I tried to watch Boogiepop Phantom, but jumped off the train after 4 episodes. The yuri overtones at times is what got me interested, but did not get into it after watching it. I have not catched it yet, but Claymore may be of interest to me. Will have to check out a couple episodes before deciding.

There were 3 adult animes that came out as well: Wife-Swap Diaries, Nurse Me! and Sibling Secret (I think this is a re-release from 2004).

Anthing here on your list of buys this week?
