 ===Spoilers===
 Try to keep your review as spoil free as possible.  Although it is quite hard to review certain anime without spoiling, try to be as informative, but as unrevealing as possible.  Please consider those who have not watched the anime before. By including spoilers you will more than likely hinder his or her  viewing experience.
+===Research===
+In the process of writing a review, just watching the anime alone only provides a certain amount of information.  Production studios, voice actors, broadcast dates, opening and ending theme singers, character singles, easter eggs, and DVD specials are useful bits of information that can be included in the review.  It can also help to read the manga, and do a comparison of the TV show versus the book.  All of this extra information can supply a much more critical, indepth review that is significantly more useful.
+; Example sites to conduct research : [http://www.animenewsnetwork.com AnimeNewsNetwork], [http://www.animenfo.com AnimeNFO], [http://www.anime-planet.com, Anime-Planet]
+There are ''TONS'' of other sources, such as personal websites, Japanese sites (if you can read Japanese), and even IMDB.  Most importantly, the purpose in doing any research, though, is to find relating subject material to the anime, and applying it carefully to provide insight.
