Summary: Shadows of the heart
Review: This movie is dark, creepy and more than a little bit cynical. I saw this a few years ago and loved it! he grants your heart's deepest desires but there's always a twist and that's what makes this anime so cool and sets it apart from anything else out there.

This title however is obviously not suited for young audiences, you wouldn't want to give them nightmares about carnivorous bunnies, now do you?

So if you're looking for something different, give this one a try--it's definitely worth it ^.^

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wow... Umm...
Review: Well, this is hardly the most original series in the world and certainly not the scariest but it is extremely good. It really is. It creeped the hell out of me when I borrowed it from my friend, and it usually takes a lot to do that. The first episode is the worst and least original- the entire episode I kept thinking, "Humm, where have I seen this before??? I wonder???" (in the least sarcastice way possible, of course.) It does scare you, though. I personally thought the Medusa episode was the best, though; very effective at getting across the characters of the main victims (as I like to call the poor souls who go in Count D's shop-what other name is there?) I would probably watch it again just to see things I missed the first time, but I would rather read the manga than see it a third time; everybody I know tells me the manga is even better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is good.... the manga is better
Review: What can I say, Petshop of horrors is just so different from everything else you can find out there now. I love it in so many ways, and not just because it features a girly boy with chinese dresses, lipstick and nails as big as my head. However, my love does have bounds.
This is great, but if you see it, you will find it has some... short comings. The stories seemed like they are packed into the 45 minutes or however long and you want more. That's why I recommend the manga, which is coming out soon. It's just so much easier to understand and you learn so much more about everyone's favorite tea drinking misanthrope.
So, to make a long story short, if you're unsure, buy this. If you think afterwards "Wow that was great, but what about this thing? And that? I want more D/Leon!", get the manga. Plus, the manga has a character in it affectionately called Papa D, and it just doesn't get any better than that.
