The most devastating thing a show can suffer from is being mid in every category. For a yakuza anime, there's surprisingly little business happening. For a romcom, it's neither very romantic nor particularly funny. For a toxic relationship, there's a lack of morally daring moments. And for a high school setting, there's definitely no studying going on. Nothing much happens in the twelve episodes to be honest.

I can see where this is going, crazy yakuza power couple laced with romance and plotting, sexy and dangerous. But the whole premise falls apart because of Yoshino's bad characterisation. On the one hand, she's a yakuza anego speaks ...

Let me preface this by saying I don't think this anime is horrendous, it’s not amazing either. It just exists. The first thing you’ll notice after watching this is that it's set in an omegaverse. This trope first came around as a trope for sexy times - which is non-existent in this anime as it appears to be a slice of life cutesy type. That’s fine, fluffy abo can exist. But tossing all the politics behind, there’s nothing revolutionary about this anime nor does it even do abo much justice. If you are here for the cute times and happy vibes, read no more of ...

Coincidentally the last review I wrote was about Link Click. As I anticipated in the release of the new season for 2 years, I don’t think I can give it a 9 this time around.

If you look for traces of season 1 in this season, you won’t find it. It’s migrated, or at least try to, into the “mystery” and “crime” category.

Plot:
The whole season is one case they are trying to crack. It’s not even cracked at the end? It’s full of pacing issues and bugs. I don’t even know where to begin because I stop caring halfway through. The “villain” Qian Jin is motivated ...

Hi pals of MAL, it’s me again! Back at it with another Chinese anime review. Shiguang Dailiren, where do I begin. It’s very, very impressive for an anime(donghua) original, it’s not based on a big IP, none of that manga spoilers or the manga was better. The cliff-hangers week after week is truly compelling. Heck even EP11 left us on the cliff, or shall I say it pushed me off the cliff. Time travel is no new subject, as the Chinese saying goes, it’s not embarrassing to have the same theme, it’s embarrassing for the one who did it worst. At a first glance, the ...

***THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS***

Wu Liuqi has a very special place in my heart, to the point that I want to write for it the second time. I have not written for an anime twice before – not that I’ve written many reviews in the first place, anyhow, that’s beside the point.

I have previously mentioned in my first review about the biggest charms of the show (shamelessly plug in my own review). It is the Cantonese style humour and style that makes it so unique and different from any other Chinese animation out there on the market now. This style continues into season three.

I won’t wishy ...

Preliminary (138/257 chp)
It was only a matter of time before Korean content start to appear on MAL as Chinese content have comfortably found their position on this site in recent times. The reason why I decided to search True Beauty on MAL is after reading the latest chapter. The webtoon continuously astound me after every chapter since the newer arcs and I just needed to talk about it with someone, something, a wall, anything!

I started read this around Chapter 40 when my friend urged me to read this cute webtoon. Few years later, needless to say my friend stopped reading this and moved on, as for me ...

Thanks to Mo Xiang Tong Xiu (MXTX) and very devoted BL fans, the MDZS review I wrote is the most upvoted review I have ever written. How could I miss the opportunity for clout by dropping another bomb review? (You can interpret ‘bomb’ as amazing or terrible)

However you look at it, MXTX have done pretty exceptional, even with the ongoing court scandals. She hasn’t written many novels but all three of her existing novels have been massive hits. Gaining a huge Chinese and foreign following. As we know, MDZS’s popularity is already off the roof and now comes the TGCF anime. And no, I’m not ...

You look over at The God of Highschool and come have a peek at this and look again, hang on a minute, they are both by MAPPA this season???

It would be wrong to say that I didn’t contribute to the production of this anime as I have made a full on 188rmb in app purchase on the game. While I’m no whale player, I am a LV.70 player, as of writing this review, the diary function of the game tells me I’ve met our four boys for 1000 days, and Ling Xiao (Shaw/Siho/Sho) for 575 days, the Chinese server of the game existed for 1016 ...

I don’t know how to convince you to read my long review, I might have to say something click bait, I will explain the BUTT character in my review, yes that butt that only appeared in the ending song, yes it has a back story! Please hold on…

Amongst a sea of saturated Japanese styled animation, Chinese animation have struggled to create a style for itself. When The King’s Avatar (Quanzhi Gaoshou) was initially released, there were comments on how characters have Japanese looks towards them – which I have to agree, if you ever watch anime you will know what I mean, it’s the way ...

Move along, I’m Chinese, this show is targeted at me and I’m telling you, it’s shite, other Chinese people think so too. End of review.

Okay.

This review took a yearlong because I struggled to finish the film when it first came out, here I am a year later, finished it, felt compelled to write a review because it was bad bad.

First of all, the Netflix version and the Bilibili version is not the same, not only the voice actors are different, the music is different. The Netflix Chinese dub was absolutely awful, the writing was extremely inarticulate, almost seems like it was written and read by ...
