Witch Hunter Robin
(Anime)
add
How you should watch this anime: Skip to episode 12; seriously you will not miss anything. I was obviously very bored so I have survived episodes 1-11 and some very boring witch hunting. You might miss some of the early minor character intros but you'll catch on to what each person’s role is. Skipping takes this anime from a 3/10 to a 5/10 i.e. it's still a very mediocre anime. The pacing is horribly slow and the characters are as drab as the art/animation/color palate. The general concept is really interesting but the execution kills it (in a bad way). Episodes 1-11 are 97% useless.

Occultic;Nine

Occultic;Nine is like a lighter, crack version of Steins;Gate. If you could get past their version of comedic relief and average attempt at sci-fi/occult, then you're looking at a pretty solid 6/10 overall series. Obviously I enjoyed watching so I ranked it 7/10. I really liked the artwork/animation style, and the characters were unique enough to pique my interest and the general story was really interesting. However, the any problems/flaws really stood out like a sore thumb. The Tesla explanation for everything was taken way to far to the point were it was not believable any more. Random characters were suddenly gifted superpowers out of

Good story line elements but no follow through what so ever. This is the reason for the low rating i.e. I wish I didn't waste my time. The stuff that happened at the end didn't make sense and appeared in a "oh dear we have to finish this thing A.S.A.P." kind of way. And don't misunderstand me; I can appreciate a good cliff hanger but that’s not the case here. It's like they decided to just drop the series, or ran out of funding/inspiration to write and just let it all die a slow and painful death. Overall, nothing really happened throughout the whole

Bakemono no Ko

This is a pretty good coming of age/root for the underdog/you're not alone kind of movie. I really liked how they used cliche themes but transformed them with the whole beast vs. human world. So over all, the movie was good. That being said, it was predictable and I definitely will not be able to watch this over and over again. It's just a cute, uncomplicated, feel-good kind of movie. If you're looking for a solid story line go somewhere else. Sure I gave it an overall 8 because it was a good story BUT there are holes all over the place. Someone's disguise wasn't

Please save yourself from watching this. The actual story line concept was really cool and the characters had a great base and were aesthetically pleasing. However there was no followthrough with any of this gold. The script was sappy, the actual progression of what was happening was so boring, and although the characters had a good base, they were pretty pathetic in the end. Everything was done halfway from the fights to the barely there romance. I could't find any likable character because in the end they were all one-dimensional. Also the story is based around a girl looking for her father. This main character
