Dogs 3

Once again we find a post-apocalyptic world in which violence and crime is circumscribed by deregulated technology and genetic mutation. In Dogs: Bullets & Carnage, life is a quest to find out just what in the hell happened! Enter Heine, Badou, Naoto, and Mihai. An assassin, a gunman, a journalist, and an amnesiac, they’re thrust together by sheer coincidence as they grapple with mysterious pasts and a violent present.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

As I’ve said before, Brotherhood is essentially a recasting of the original story found in the manga of Hiromu Arakawa. The Elric brothers, gifted in the advance science of creating objects from raw materials, are back on the road to find a magical artifact that will heal their bodies. Their first experiment with alchemy, a failed bid to revive their dead mother, left Edward with metal limbs and Alphonse’s soul permanently attached to a suit of armor. Now, as a fully sanctioned State Alchemist, Edward and his brother balance duty and their search for redemption. 

Dragon Ball Z Kai

Yes, the evil Saiyans have (re)returned to Earth to satisfy their appetite for destruction. But if Goku, the world’s greatest fighter, has his say, these aliens will be sent home with a foot squarely lodged between their cheeks. Nevertheless, Raditz, the first alien, proves to be tougher than anticipated, forcing Goku into an unlikely alliance with his Earthly rival Piccolo. Together they achieve victory, but pay the ultimate price. Goku not only finds death, but other Saiyans are now on their way.
