Mini Reviews
September 13th, 2007 by Lianne
In our ongoing effort to make Sleep is for the Weak a more pertinent, with-the-times review site, we now have micro reviews of some of the newest anime and manga–or just titles we didn’t have the time or willpower to write a long review for. If your attention span is short and your thirst for new media insatiable, you’ve come to the right place.
Disclaimer: These are MINI reviews based largely on INITIAL samplings of the series featured, so these sum-ups aren’t as educated or in-depth as our regular reviews. That doesn’t mean they don’t still kick ass. Reviews with an “Initial Impression” label are based on viewing/reading 1-6 episodes of that particular series; “Educated Impression” labels are based on viewing/reading beyond that. Newest or updated additions will sport the super creative “New: Date” or “Updated: Date” tag. Individual writers are credited. And don’t be afraid to agree/disagree/release waves of hate through the comments fields–that’s what they’re there for.
