"Shin Yaranai ka" OVA is a wonderful tribute to Junichi Yamakawa's works and one of the finest examples of crowdfunded official anime. It offers all the elements that one may call characteristic when talking about Yamakawa-sensei's manga. There's a lot of masculine energy mixed with humor, drama, and bizarre scenes. Everything is enriched by quite unique techniques, such as including real-life footages in the show, using CGI models here and there that look wacky on purpose, or really nice way of censoring things that had to be censored (yes, this anime is censored, but it doesn't take away even for a bit the joy coming ...

Ufotable has once again proven themselves to be the perfect studio to adapt Kimetsu no Yaiba. into the anime format.

At first, I didn't expect much from this season. After all, it adapts a short arc focused on character development and heartwarming interactions, particularly with the Hashira (Pillars), instead of concentrating only on action. And yet, ufotable delivered an incredibly entertaining show with exceptional production quality. The animation, art, and music are phenomenal as always, but what truly elevates this season are the creative anime-original moments that seamlessly blend into the story. These scenes offer a delightful mix of humor, wholesome moments, and stunning action sequences ...

Chii-chan (Manga) add
"Chii-chan" by Shuuzou Oshimi can be considered an example of a promotional manga done right. It looks very good, it's entertaining to read, it has an actual complete story that is well told, it's short, and it really does a great job in encouraging the readers to at least check out the trailer for the movie this manga is meant to promote ("Doku Musume" directed by Eisuke Naitou").

The art, as expected from Oshimi-sensei, is polished and full of beautiful-looking close-ups, showing characters and their faces in a detailed way. Speaking about its characters, they are alright. There are three main characters who are attending the ...

Memories (Anime) add
If I were to describe "Memories" in just a short way, I would call it an audiovisual feast for every fan of animation. Three different stories, each one directed by a different director, but all done in a truly spectacular way. Beautiful art style with stunning-looking backgrounds, stellar animation, breathtaking soundtrack and voice acting, an interesting and unique approach to storytelling, many themes and genres blending with each other in a balanced way, breathtaking sequences... Everything is there and is polished as much as possible. I decided to make this review rather short. Why? Because I feel there's no need to elaborate a lot and ...

It's always upsetting to see such a good-looking show end up being all form over substance. Unfortunately, things such as stellar animation, beautiful colours, interesting looking art style, and cool character designs can't carry the overall chaotic direction and extremely rushed, poorly written plot.

"Burn the Witch" offers a very nice and intriguing setting that serves as mere background to a story that's just half-baked. Half-baked, because how would one call a situation when viewers are supposed to care about anything and anyone, when all they learn throughout the show is that "this place exists, this person exists as well"? Why do viewers have to learn ...

This series was really enjoyable to watch, and I'm saying it as someone who is not a huge fan of all those "chibi episodic series". Not that I don't like them. I just prefer said chibi episodic series' main series, that's all. I was worried "Sousou no Frieren: Marumaru no Mahou" would be just another mediocre series, created for the sake of just existing alongside the main anime (in this case: "Sousou no Frieren"). I was wrong. It's a solid chibi episodic anime.

There are 12 episodes, each one dedicated to a different magic spell. What all of them have in common is being just short ...

Before starting to watch "Sousou no Frieren", what caught my attention was the high mean ranking of this show and the many praises coming from a lot of people, praising its mature themes, profound message, and melancholic atmosphere. Knowing how the so-called anime community tends to strongly overexaggerate a lot of things, especially when a lot of anime enjoyers overhype or overhate a show, I decided to give it a try anyway, thinking it may actually be a good one this time. Now I can say that once again, it was unwise to believe the general anime audience. At least when the word "masterpiece" was ...

After completing "Kaguya-sama: Love is War - Ultra Romantic", known also as Kaguya-sama: Love is War Season 3, I decided to drop the series. Not that I didn't like through and through. I thought it was okay. I just ceased to be interested in this show enough to continue watching. And yet, months later, after hearing so many times utterly positive opinions about that one arc featured in the movie this spoiler-free review is about, I decided to pick it up and see for myself. It wasn't a wise decision and I sincerely admit I fell into the trap set up by extremely devoted fans ...

"Tokyo Godfathers" directed by Satoshi Kon is a beautiful and heartwarming spectacle. It doesn't pretend to reinvent the wheel when it comes to a traditional Christmas-stylized movies. Instead, it perfects the already well-known existing elements, and enriches it with other ones. They are implemented in a subtle, yet visible way, making the whole movie not only extremely solid in its own genre, but also original in its own way. All of that, mixed with its brilliant direction (as expected from Satoshi Kon), solid scenario, beautiful art and animation, variety of themes and balance between comedy and drama, makes "Tokyo Godfathers" even more entertaining to watch.

Its ...

I'm not really a fan of watching recap episodes or compilation movies for the sake of completing them, especially if not that long before picking them up I finished watching the main series on which said episodes are centered. That being said, when I decide to pick one, it must be either because it belongs to a series I like a lot, or simply needs to look somewhat interesting enough to make me consider picking it up. In Shingeki no Kyojin: Chronicle's case, it was these two reasons combined, plus I wanted to refresh my memory about some cool scenes from Seasons 1-3, but without ...
