With so much anime produced each season, it's easy for interesting shows to slip through the cracks and for busy fans to only focus on the few big shows that everyone is watching. Each week, we try to remedy this and give one show its chance to shine. Whether its a classic show like Magic Knight Rayearth, a profitable franchise like Symphogear, or just something weird like Boogiepop Phantom, we discuss the first few episodes, the characters, the direction, and decide whether it was worth watching or not.

This week, the ARG take on Ghost Hound, a 2007 anime from Production IG and Masamune Shirow. We salivate over the sweet sweet Chiaka J Konaka goodness.
