Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “My anime pick of the week is Soul Eater – it’s a generally very fun action series, and one which really grabbed the fandom zeitgeist for a big chunk of the 2010s. My 4K (and general) pick is going to be the Kino-Lorber release of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.” Blaine says, “I’m going to pick the Columbo set, although Monk is also tempting.”
