Night is Short, Walk on Girl

One night could lead to many things. One night could feel like a year. One night could change everything. Night is short, walk on girl is a great summation of everything this film is about. It takes place over the course of the same night and things get progressively stranger and more interesting. It feels like …

DARLING in the FRANXX ep 2 – Let This Long Road To Madness End!

Yeah I'm dropping this show because it looks like not a lot is going to happen. This episode had a lot of wasted time and not a lot going on to make me want to continue. The good parts of the episode was the set up in the relationship between the main character and the …

DARLING in the FRANXX ep 1 – Let This Long Road to Madness Begin

It was always a given that I was going to talk about Darling in the FranXX at some point so why not start now despite it not being finighed? At the current rate that I'm releasing episode reviews at the season will be over by the time I've finished it anyway! I probably won't make …

Golden Kamuy ep 1 – The Best CGI has to offer

Thanks again to magicconnan14 for recommending this show by not recommending it but saying that he would recommend it if he wasn't worried about what I would think. And with that mouthful of a sentence let's talk about the show. I'm glad I'm reviewing this show the day after I talked about a bad implementation …

Hinamatsuri ep 1 – The life of a Yakuza fits with slice of life?

Thank you to magicconan14 for recommending this show! Starting with a completely out of context fight scene for no reason is never a good sign for me. My main complaint about it is how pointless it was. There was a character none of us knew and the rest of the episode took place three years …

Megalo Box ep 2 – Pro Punching

Hey we're back with the first episode two review of this anime season! I thought with at least trying to review an episode a day I would be able too cover this quicker but my brain had other plans! Due to scheduling two new episodes probably would have appeared between my ep 1 and 2 …

Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online Ep 1 – A Redemption for SAO?

After completely hating sword art online I thought it would be good to see if SAO had finally been fixed. Maybe an alternative version would help to bring quality back to a show that's got a following who would really appreciate an increase in quality. So was the alternative able to save SAO? Absolutely not. …

Hisone To Maso-tan ep 1 – I Love Airplane Dragons!

I had expected the decision to start episode reviewing would lead to many rants about how terrible seasonal anime is, getting to the grips of everything I hate in these modern shows. But instead I've been pleasantly surprised, and today is no exception! This show looks like a kids show and from the advertising stupid. …

Lupin III Part 5 Ep 1 – The Chase Is On!

Thanks again to Zainou for recommending this show for me. It's a great show and you can jump on straight away here without seeing the million other episodes of the show! I think the only way I see myself not liking the show is that the episodes all look fairly similar, I wouldn't be so …

Lupin The Third 2015 Ep 1 – A Thrilling Fight For The Crown!

The thanks for this post goes to Zainou who recommended I watch season 1 of the new Lupin season. Despite the fact that there are many, many episodes to this series it's all very episodic so he recommended I watch ep 1 of 2015 or three other films, one of which I couldn't find and the …

Legend of the Galactic Heroes Season 2 – Understated and Epic

Here is my post on season 1 where I stupidly pretended that I had seen the whole thing. I have not deliberately put the show on hold between that post and this one but it just took a while for reasons I will explain! Legend of the Galactic heroes (lotgh) does not feel like the …

It’s Difficult to Love an Otaku ep 1 – It’s Difficult to Love This Show

It's no secret that I don't like seasonal anime, however it seems ridiculous to state that without justifying it in posts like these. And through doing this I might just prove myself wrong so there's that as well! First impressions are huge when I watch a show. Honestly being made by A-1 Pictures and having …

‘A Silent Voice’ is An Excellent Film

I have found in the past that writing a long review talking about the film in chronological order is unhelpful to a lot of people because they can get insanely long and people don’t have the time or the patience to read it all, so now I’m switching my style to talk about specific things …

Inuyashiki is a Must Watch!

One of my favourite anime’s from last year was Inuyashiki so this review has been a long time coming! Let’s get into it a whole two months after I said I would – this isn’t going to create a worse blog post in the slightest! At the start of this show Inuyashiki is in a …

Tsurezure Children Is A Great High School Rom-Com!

I really enjoyed this show from beginning to end. The anime features short skits from a range of couples in a school to present comedic love stories for (almost) every stage in a relationship, making the school feel more integrated and realised than many other shows I’ve seen. Adapting a series from a 4-koma manga …

Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea Is An Amazing Film

I watched Ponyo a while ago and I loved it! It was an enjoyable, fun ride of the movie with a backdrop of interesting themes I could appreciate.  It’s a great film which is easy to watch and I recommend it to every anime fan and any movie fan who likes studio Ghibli. This is …

Kodomo No Jikan Anime Review

This anime is pretty controversial and many people have problems with it which I’ve addressed in this post here. It’s basically a disclaimer for everything I’m about to say and something I can point you towards if you have any concerns. Something I’ve noticed when reading reviews on my anime list is that most of …

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Is a Great Film

It’s rare for me to find a time travel film which tackles it’s time travel mechanic in such an interesting and personal way. Instead of a simple save the world plotline the show explored the less catastrophic, more fun side of time travel whilst still creating an interesting, high stakes story which is fun to …

5 Short Anime Reviews!

Today I finally have gotten three months ahead of myself which is as far enough ahead as I want it to be. To celebrate this I have brought back a set of five short reviews describing my opinions on shows that I completed or dropped. To do this I randomly generated a number which correlated …

Nisekoi: How it’s massively Miss-judged and Overlooked

Genuinely, for some time Nisekoi was my favourite anime and I still like it a lot. People who know anime conventions and tropes would probably easily pass this by as trashy or generic but I think it has far more appeal than other people claim. This anime is really funny consistently. Even though you might …

Berserk: Golden Age Arc III: The Advent

Something that I praised the first film a lot was how it managed to fit a lot of events in to one very short film. This third adaptation of the golden age arc from berserk was both long and didn’t fit a lot of events into it, making it boring in my opinion as everything …

Berserk: The Battle For Doldrey Film

This Berserk film is very similar to the previous one and covered what I would expect it too. My brief opinion is that it was worse than the first film yet still alright, I feel like the extra run time was actually a detriment to me as I started losing attention towards the end. Despite …

Berserk: The Egg of the King Film – Not For New Fans Of Berserk

Films are something that I find pretty difficult to like and I often tend to dislike for reasons that I can’t really describe. It’s normally a mixture of things I dislike and my short attention span that cause me to lose interest half way through. If you want to know how much I dislike films …

Berserk 1997: Action With Complications And Meaning

Berserk is a brilliant anime that I’d consider a must watch for anyone who likes and enjoys anime. From the outside looking in this show appears to be some kind of dark, demonic action show but it really isn’t. There’s a lot of gore and action in most episodes however it never seems to be …

Ghost Stories: A Different Kind Of Comedy

Ghost stories is just hilarious, if you’ve not seen it you owe it to yourself to watch it dubbed. For the uninitiated the sub of ghost stories performed very badly compared to what was expected, this led to the best decision ever. Let’s just say whatever the hell we want as long as it loosely …

Pokémon: The Show We Cared About

When we were growing we all had something that we cared about greatly and for me, this was Pokémon. I don’t actually remember the first episode that I ever watched but I’m very confident that I watched it before any other anime. It would have probably been Diamond and Pearl but I’m not 100% sure, …

Highschool DXD: Plot With More Plot?

Let’s not beat around the bush, High school DxD is a very fan service orientated show which doesn’t require much attention to detail, thinking or knowledge too watch. It’s a very simple action harem show. I will be reviewing all three seasons in my quest to review all 155 (and counting) anime on my completed …

The Thing That Boku No Hero Academia Forgot! (Eps 2 and 3 of season 2)

This post is coming as a reaction and review to episode 2 and 3 of Boku No Academia Season 2 and the high stakes, engrossing race that took place during the time. Whilst I enjoyed the two episodes and found them pretty engrossing and interesting on the most part there was this part that annoyed …

Cowboy Bebop: More Than Just Action Anime

Reviewing anime series’ is something that I’ve never tried before or even wanted to do, I’ve however had a change of heart in this regard as I would like to discuss and talk about specific shows so that people can get suggestions to what they should watch and what they shouldn’t. From now on I …

Graph.Anime.plus: An Anime Website Overview

Graph.Anime.plus is in essence a more mathematical and statistical version of my anime list. The website automatically assumes that you already have a “my anime list” account and uses it as your own profile. In this way, anyone can find your statistics, profile and recommendations from just entering you MAL username into the website. If …

Undefeated Bahamut Chronicles Sucks

For a very long time I’ve had hatred for this show, it’s probably my least favourite anime of all time. When I saw that this show may be getting another season it pushed me over the edge to write this. I wrote most of this in April 2016 so the writing style may be pretty …

Cheer Boys [Midpoint Review]

This is a review that I posted to my anime list for the first 5 episodes of a show called cheer boys! It’s currently the highest rated review of cheer boys! On the website so I thought that I’d share what I thought of it at the midway point. I’m pretty embarrassed by this review …
