Well, I could go very long with this one. What could you exactly talk about Doraemon? There are millions of great things that you could talk about Doraemon. Whether it's affecting the anime world, how it inspired children when we were kids, animation, drama, movies that aren't canon but you could be talking about them for miles and miles ahead about how great they are, the backstory of every single character in Doraemon that could make a whole movie out of it, Nobita's future with Shizuka and how he's been living with Doraemon, Stand By Me: Doraemon that's undoubtedly one of the best anime movies
...
in the world, influence on Japan and the whole world, in Florence in Southeast Asia, and hundreds of things you could mention to show how strong Doraemon's influence is. Doraemon is an anime that you don't need to worry about how the story goes because every story, episode, or chronicle has its own story. It doesn't need to be in order, and you don't need to watch every single episode to recollect everything because every single one of Doraemon's episodes has its own story, much like how Tom and Jerry have their own story in every episode. Doraemon can be watched from a young age to the oldest; it's like how Lego sets are designed for ages 1 to 99 to play with. It's just like that because Doraemon is simply the anime that can bring people together, allowing them to sit and enjoy like the friends they are, just like the friends they are with Nobita, Doraemon, Giant, Shizuka, Suneo, and the people they are friends with. If you have a bad day from work or feel like you want to seek happiness for your life, this is the anime that will really help you out a lot or feels like you need something to relax, watch Doraemon.

Might have been several years since I shed tears from watching anime, starting from Your Name and Stand By Me.
I had actually known about them for a long time but never really knew what they were about until one day. Back then, I was looking for something to pass the time on a flight, so I kept scrolling through Netflix. I saw 'Violet Evergarden' and it jogged my memory like, Hey, I've seen this around a few times. I used to like the art style, among other things brabrabrba so I decided to find out what it was all about. There was an OVA and
...
a movie, so I noted it down. I wondered which one I should watch first. I downloaded everything on Netflix and sat down for a long watch. At that time, I also downloaded Yu gi oh just in case, because I saw it only had 13 episodes and a few extra movies. So, I kept it on standby until I finished. Once I had everything downloaded, I started watching. I finally understood that it was about the story after the war, featuring a young girl named Violet Evergarden. It wasn't her real name, though. The main character didn't have any background or identity before that until she met a soldier who took her in from his own commander. In reality, she had been an assassin since she was a child. Most people in the army saw Violet as a weapon. After the war, she worked for a company that her caretaker's friend owned. It was a company that wrote and delivered letters to people in the town. The story rolls with Violet being released from the hospital, with those around her keeping it a secret that Gilbert, the soldier who took care of her, had already passed away. She starts her first job as someone who transcribes and locks away letters. Later, she is transferred to work in a place full of beautiful girls who all work as "Dolls." These Dolls are like people who write letters. It's like when you command ChatGPT to write a letter but imagine it being done by someone else following your instructions. The main character narrates from the perspective of someone who lacks feelings and understanding of the word "love." She starts to learn about character development and personal traits through her work. The main heroine learns, and the story is told in a one-perspective manner, showing the impact that the main character has on this story. The main highlights of the series, especially in episodes three, six, seven, and ten, are the ones I consider noteworthy. These episodes are exceptionally well-written, presenting the story like a perfect one-episode ending. Episodes eight and nine are a continuous segment, or simply put, every episode of Violet Evergarden has its own standalone story, and each episode has a complete connection with another. Every episode has a beautifully written drama and a deep understanding of human emotions, whether it's love, pain, or happiness. It's not just an anime, it's more like a real, intense drama series. It's another one of those shows that, if adapted into live action, would turn out exceptionally well. The voice acting, I believe everyone put in their best effort, and I must commend that this is one of the best voice acting performances I've seen in all my years of watching anime or animation. The soundtrack perfectly matches the tone of the anime, seamlessly integrating with it. The storytelling through the character Violet, while presented in a simple manner, carries a profound meaning. Every character is made significant to the plot and the story in each episode, whether it's Claudia, Ellis, or other supporting characters who encounter Leon. It's another great example of how to give importance to characters beyond the main protagonist. As for the creation, structure, and visuals, I don't think I need to explain much.
This is the peak of Kyoto Animation. What made me deeply appreciate this story even more is knowing that the people who perished in the tragic fire incident put in their heart and soul to bring this story to life. It's not just a reminder for us to appreciate such good works before we pass away, but it serves as a tribute to those talented individuals from Kyoto Animation who were once part of this project and have since left us. The quality of the animation is a solid 10/10. The attention to detail is remarkable, and it looks so lifelike that it feels more like watching a Studio Ghibli film than a series. Each episode is at a cinematic level. It's like all 13 episodes refused to settle for the basic and aimed for an Oscar-winning performance. Give it a watch if you haven't already, because after finishing it, you might find yourself re-evaluating your favorites list. Personally, I might have to make quite a few changes after this. Once you finish watching, you might even feel a bit empty, wishing you could experience it all over again for the first time. Violet is incredibly endearing, but if we set aside her appearance, in terms of protagonist, she's on a whole other level. You could even say she's one of the best protagonists of all time. She's a character who has been exceptionally well-written, and her character development is truly outstanding. I highly recommend giving it a watch.
If anyone ever asks me for anime recommendations or if I want someone to start watching anime, "Violet Evergarden" is one of my top choices.

Satoshi Kon's best work that also depicts the viewpoint of a retired idol in the most cruel, yet accurate way to reality. It's about a girl who is haunted by a weirdo that created her fanpage website and all. Then she starts getting bewildered by what she has been dreaming about sometimes, moving forward with her occasionally seeing the same weirdo that wanted to be with her. However, they are betrayed because of what occurred when she went for a drama series and did a sex scene for her job. Everything about 'Perfect Blue' isn't just about the tone and music, but the story itself
...
is described well. I consider this to be one of my top 3 favorite anime movies ever. I would like to comeback to it again and again because of how amazingly cruel yet beautiful this anime movie has affected me.

Whether you read manga or watch anime, Spy x Family excels at both. I don't know why I was hating it so much at first after reading it until I got a chance to catch up with everything again, and now I'm in love with Spy x Family once more and considering this as one of the best action anime series that Studio CloverWorks has done justice to. The manga is great, but I'm glad the anime has helped me with my hatred for Anya. Because whenever I read the panel that makes Anya look annoying, the anime will save me from that because Anya
...
is very cute and fun in every single scene in the anime. Loid and Yor are a cool couple duo, and the way the story goes and how you could expect from a spy, secret agent stuff, movie. It's very gratifying to see how Japanese artists being heavily influenced by spy films and themes, they could adapt an anime that feels so lively. Like, 'Hey, if there's a live-action adaptation, this would be a really good one to watch.' So if that event happens, I have no doubt it's going to be one of the best anime adaptations ever (if they get good direction for it). Great anime with a great understanding of spy films.

Not that I would say it's my favorite piece of work from Junji Ito, but one of them at least. Tomie is the first piece of work from Junji Ito sensei that I actually got to read and understand what it's truly all about. I mean, I randomly saw a short clip of Tomie popping up on my Twitter feed one day, and I got interested, so I started watching and catching up with it pretty quickly. Tomie isn't just a good horror manga that you need to read, but in the general world of horror, it's one of the best pieces of work that
...
has ever been created. Every horror movie should be taken as an inspiration, which is why "Girl from Nowhere" turns out to be so amazing because it's influenced by Junji Ito's Tomie. As I've mentioned somewhere else, Tomie has its own story in every single chapter they have, and every story shows how feared and horrifying Tomie could have been. Tomie is also one of the most dangerous and scariest creatures that have ever been created in the manga world. I'm sure that it's not just that she can't die, but the chaos she brings upon the world and that one specific story she's part of make her even more menacing. Tomie is very scary to read, yet very magnificent and interesting to follow the trace of Tomie and where she goes. If you like horror stories, Tomie is one of those you need to read before you die.

Here's the thing, it used to be me writing a single review for each arc, but I think that's too much work. So, I want to wrap it in one and say about this series in the way I think is cool with me the most. One Piece is cinema, or might be the peak of anime. There are always arguments with people saying it's bad, it's mid, some are just extravagant about the anime itself, but for me, One Piece is for everybody and it's amazing in general, despite how people want to think. I honestly have never cared about what exactly people may
...
want to talk about One Piece because let's be honest, you can call it good or bad, or even trash, the worst anime of all time—anything you wish to call this anime—but you can't disagree that this piece of art, this work that Oda has so much love for, is something you need to watch before you die, even if you hate it so much. One Piece doesn't matter if it has 1000 episodes for you to catch up on, or if it doesn't need to be compared with anybody. One Piece is One Piece on its own, and if you don't want to watch it, that's okay because every anime always has people that dislike and do not need to watch it. I have always been wanting to watch One Piece because the topic and concept, everything about this anime, has always been interesting for me to discover since I was a kid. And when I got to be part of the community, I'm very grateful that I have the chance to catch up on one of the best (if not the best) pieces of animanga I have ever seen in my whole life. I could say it's my favorite anime because I quite like this more than Evangelion now, but I still don't think it's the greatest anime of all time in general. Joy, emotion, moments, and everything deserves to be called the GOAT, but I'm sure there are still anime out here that are better, and that's why we shouldn't compare One Piece to anything else to ruin its reputation. Let's let One Piece breathe its own legacy, and let's just appreciate the fact that we have One Piece to watch for once in our life. I love One Piece. I love every character (law is my favs), every villain, every resource of the land that the Straw Hat Pirates have visited. I love how the story goes, and I love the foreshadowing that Oda brings to the story itself. I also love the music that has been a part of this series. I even love most of the movies that are One Piece-related. One Piece is all about love for me when it comes to the series itself, and I want to enjoy One Piece without thinking it's better than anything else. One Piece is One Piece; it's just an anime for everybody, and I think we all should just come in peace and enjoy this anime without ruining its reputation and, you know, just have fun with it. That's what One Piece is really all about, just like the main protagonist always embodies.

I'm not going to act like 'Oh, I haven't read the manga yet, so I'll say it from here,' so I'm just going to say it straight from someone who caught up with the anime. Doesn't matter if I read or watch, I'm going to say something about this series. One of the things I really like about comedy-action anime is that even though it's a very funny show to watch, but when it comes to the drama part, it could either shatter your heart to pieces or turn your tears into a waterfall. One Punch Man is one of those things. Great animation. Iconic
...
Opening. Saitama is hilarious. Everything about it, besides Season 2 of the anime, is dope. I mean, Season 2 is okay, but it just kinda ruined the whole series itself, which is why. Great series overall, I still love it.

This is still my favorite Junji Itoh's piece of work. From top to bottom, every nook and cranny of this series is everything that most horror manga should take as a study case. I'm very glad it's going to get a good anime adaptation because surely a lot of people are going to love this series a lot. The story tells about the curse of the spiral that took over the small coastal town of Kurouzu-cho in Japan. It isn't just about that 'Oh, the spiral taking over, it's going to be spiral everywhere.' Spiral everywhere is one part, but what's more interesting and creepier
...
about it is the way the Spiral haunts the city and people in the town, being described throughout the story to show that even if it's just the spiral, it could have been worse than you would have thought. Amazing horror manga, you need to read this if you like horror pieces of stuff.
