Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle
The sixth and final volume of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle’s inaugural season is surely a must have for pre-existing fans of the show. The question is however, is there enough here to bring in entirely new legions of followers. This critic says no.

Lost Season 5
Note – review may contain spoilers

The Mist
