The naivety and development of the main couple is good. The scenery is beautiful and the club building is interesting. Even all dirty and filthy, the way in which students work in harmony and are interested in different things is really cool. They enjoy studying and value the culture. And speaking of culture, the story is also about the consequences of the world war, in addition to portraying the navy (although these are not the focus).
The soundtrack is beautiful and we can count on "Sukiyaki", wonderful song made by Kyu Sakamoto, who sadly died in a plane crash. There are many small details that go
...
unnoticed. The secondary characters may not have much potential, but they do have the ideal screen time. I've seen a lot of movies where there seem to be only the main characters, and this one managed to show that there is a world beyond them, which is great.
Finally, the unfolding of the novel is full of twists and turns. I watched it with my parents and I confess that I was "no... it can't be, this is so wrong!". The script certainly doesn't look like a Studio Ghibli movie. It doesn't have magic, it doesn't have the fascination that usually enchants us. It's basically an everyday romance movie from that time. Which, by the way, the characters are good but not deep. Far from it.

Problems with the mafia, love at first sight, an unnecessary female character (in other words, just another generic girl with no personality that serves to fulfill screen time). Maybe I read too many manga, because everything went so exhaustively and predictably that I couldn't finish it. They said the characters have depth... I wonder where?
The idea of stroking the heads of those who are "broken" is indeed an interesting one, but here's a question for you: if you find out that your parents died, no matter how stupid they were, you would just smile and go on with your life? And why would you suddenly
...
be fascinated by a stranger you met two days ago at the most? Being attracted is acceptable, but we know that passion and love are different things.
Kutsuna with his life as a craftsman proved to be much more interesting than Ryou, but unfortunately he didn't have any kind of development, or even screen time except - for the most part - thoughts about the protagonist.
Art is indeed cool, but comedy is dull. It boils down to pissed off characters yelling at each other. About the mafia: it's an incredibly generic aspect in bl manga, and the way events were narrated was a little confusing. I also don't like the idea of polyamory, although this in particular is just my taste.

My relationship with this manga is extremely complicated. The way Morinaga literally raped and only thinks about sex all the time (literally, for him, love is all about sex), it pissed me off. Not to mention that history never moves; when everything seems to be going, it comes back.
The question is ... so why did I keep reading anyway? The answer is simple: Senpai. He is a lovely character (as well as handsome), watching him evolve was satisfying. And I became so attached to him that giving up this show was difficult. Today, however, I am officially putting this manga aside. Things could have been
...
better, and it makes me upset.

The synopsis and cover alone are VERY good, but I didn't expect that I would fall in love with this manga so much! It made me laugh, cry and scream horrors in my room xD Arte 1000/10, Qaltaga is the most delicious and cute seme I have ever met. And Ryou is also very handsome, his body and face are very masculine (which I absolutely love, I hate ukes who look like girls). Together, they caused an explosion of beauty and cuteness.
Okay, let's go step by step ... The beginning seems a little biased - predictable -, although quite funny. Ryou takes care of taking
...
care of the new indigenous exchange student, Qaltaga. The problem is that they don't understand each other's language, and Qaltaga had never seen electricity before, which makes for super funny moments (culture shock is always very hilarious!).
Interestingly, Qaltaga begins to show affection for Ryou and vice versa. And oddly enough, although Ryou at first hesitates about his feelings, he later becomes uninhibited and surprisingly honest. Do you know how likely this is to happen with a Uke? Pretty hard. And Qaltaga, on the other hand, is very kind and at no time was he thinks badass or superior to Ryo. The p-e-r-f-e-c-t Seme.
The relationship they create is absolutely pure and true. They are two innocent people who have never been in a relationship like this, but still know that it is right to be with each other. And the end? Ah my friends ... the end could not be more PERFECT. They decided to explore other scenarios besides Japan - albeit little - and I liked it a lot.
One of the few yaoi manga without rape or harassment, with a very well-designed development and a complete ending. And everything with a simply beautiful art, every time the Qaltaga appeared, my heart was skipped... His eyes smile with the soul, mesmerizing. Jeez beautiful creature. What are you waiting for to read?

An anime that at the beginning suggests that the end will have an incredible performance with the protagonist flying into the air, full of acrobatics and adrenaline. Buuuuut, it doesn't. Although the anime's proposal was cheerleaders, the focus is different. But calm down, I also have positive reviews.
I believe that the strength point of this anime was the development of the characters. Seriously, each of the 16 members has a well-built personality! Not to mention that everyone has a very diverse appearance (a chinese, a chubby, delinquent, effeminate, with afro hair... anyway). And in those 12 episodes alone, they were better developed than many famous
...
animes. This made me very happy. Are some a little generic? Yes. But not all. I confess that I felt a little angry at Haru, excessive shyness irritates me. He couldn't even speak to his own sister, that sucks. So I prefer to think that Kazu is the real protagonist. As soon as I finished watching, there was a slight squeeze in my heart, because I will miss them.
The art is relatively simple, but pretty. Sometimes she gets a little relaxed, but nothing that gets in the way of the story. The soundtrack is very pleasant (especially in the comical part). A very unexpected thing happened also in the penultimate episode with a girl named Chihiro. I didn't know if I laughing or hiding my face in some hole HAHAHAHAHAHAH I won't tell you because it is clearly spoiler. But I already tell you that you too will be surprised.
About the end, it was great and at the same time terrible. Great because all the members had their screen time. Terrible because during all that time they were training like convicts, but they did not show anything exceptional during the presentation. Not to mention that they didn't even disclose the final result of the competition. The sporting genre has become the second priority in history (extremely disappointing). But anyway, now I at least know that cheerleader is a really cool thing. Before I thought it was shit done by annoying teenagers, it was interesting to have another perspective on the subject.

First of all, I love chinese culture, but I also hate it. Censoring a kiss scene? Same? It annoys me. It is really annoying to watch a BL without explicit romance (this implies that it is a any friendship). But that's okay, except for that, Jie Yao surprised me!
As soon as the opening started - a lovely chinese jazz - I freaked out inside: shit, there's something really good about this anime! The soundtrack is quite reasonable, but it fits perfectly all the time. The chinese accent is also very pleasant to hear.
Art is a little unstable, but it's not bad. Jian Yu is really
...
handsome. And it is very interesting how Jian met Cheng Ke. The two have a completely different social status; Cheng was a spoiled "child" who, at first, did not know how to live alone. On the other hand, Jian has always been independent.
But they have evolved throughout history. It was beautiful, fantastic, wonderful to see Cheng Ke drawing in the sand! Most of the time, he thought about the problems he had with his family, but when he drew he became someone else. It's nice to see a uke - who I think he is - have your own interests and exercise the profession he want. Having a life far beyond the relationship. That's right Cheng, you rocked!. He also faced dangerous people on his own, without fear (this is my booooy).
But what I definitely didn't expect was that this story was about psychological problems. I believe the anime is called Antidote because Cheng Ke was the emotional healing that Jian Yi needed. But Jian Yi was also the antidote to Cheng! When Cheng Ke spent Christmas alone in his store, I could feel all of his pain. I know what it's like to be alone, what it's like to have no friends. It is painful, and life seems to lose its meaning. Fortunately, Jian was there for him, just as Cheng was there for Jian.
The end was satisfactory, except for not having romance as I wanted. And the battle scenes were pretty bad - not to say terrible - but to do what if nobody invests in animes shounen-ai / yaoi. It could have been an even better anime with the necessary investment (and without the damn censorship, of course).

Mob is a very cool anime and totally different from One Punch Man (who claims the opposite has serious discernment problems). And the first episode couldn't get any better; introduced us to the best character in the series from the beginning, Reigen Arataka. I confess that he made the anime 1,000 times more interesting, but I'll go into more detail later.
The fights are undoubtedly very intense and it's fun to see how Mob, who is such a listless character, really has a multitude of emotions inside. He always wondered what he should do, and I think that represents us as a teenager.
The comedy is good
...
and very creative. The situations in which the protagonist finds himself are fun. Ritsu with Covinha at his side reminded me a lot of Death Note, maybe it was a reference. The soundtrack is very good and striking and the voice actors are also great. You feel special when you realize that not even people with powers are really special. Each has its talent, regardless of what it is.
Basically, everything Reigen taught Mob is magnificent. I get very angry when someone says he is a despicable man, in fact he did many good things. Although he is a charlatan, he never puts his customers at risk. In part of the anime, he told Mob that he had a difficult past. Perhaps that led him to want easy money. And perhaps that is also the reason for protecting young people so vigorously. He is an adult who knows the consequences and really cares about his student.
If, instead of Reigen, someone took advantage of Mob's powers, it would certainly make him hurt people to make money or, who knows, take over the world. But Reigen is decent, he made Mob a kind person and taught him right and wrong. He is really a complex character and at the same time worthy of respect. Anyway, In addition to Reigen and Mob, there are other very good characters, such as Onigawara and the Clube de Fomento Corporal. Teru's evolution is also impressive. But the story in general is not very impressive, it is quite simple and generic - although it has magnificent moments. I didn't see anything very special.

[Warning, this review may contain minor spoilers]
Kimetsu's start at Yaiba was very weak and predictable. I believe it was a bad start for such a spectacular anime! They wanted to impress viewers as soon as the story started. But I didn't really feel bad for Tanjiro's family, because I didn't have enough time to empathize with her. It was really a very quick, instantaneous thing. So I misjudged Kimetsu: "a sensationalist anime with tragic cliché scenes". And my friends, I regret very much for thinking so.
Anyway, I decided to leave that aside and continue the story. The sibling relationship between Nezuko and Tanjiro is a
...
beautiful and genuine one, both characters being very admirable. And the author did not force incest between them, it filled me with happiness! As I got to know the soundtrack, I couldn't think of anything other than that it is FANTASTIC (I specifically love the melody that appeared in episode 19). The art is very peculiar, it shows us characters with really authentic appearances and the animation is superb, that is undeniable. One of the things that really irritated me, however, was the constant gender discussion that I had to put up with (when Sabito came out, he started a speech justifying that whoever was born a man cannot cry and blablabla, like that like the Rui, who said that the father has a role, and the mother another. My loved ones, stop talking shit. Truly annoying).
But that is really an irrelevant part of the anime, because everything else pays off. I must praise how Tanjiro's training happened. He trained for a LOT of time, and even after so long, he was still weak. I found this extremely realistic. And man, he's an enlightened, merciful being, a character who immediately became one of my top 10 anime characters. In addition, he was also very authentic and confident in front of the other four in the selection test; he is a boy who is not afraid to express himself. And you see, Oni are extremely hateful, disgusting, cruel (at least, most of them). And yet the damn author managed to make me cry horribly because of them. I also have to mention the comedy scenes. Inosuke, like Tanjiro, became one of my favorite characters hahah. By the way, in my opinion, the story only improved when the three stooges got together (those who watched know what I'm talking about hahah).
The characters in general have a VERY creative power, and the control of breathing immediately sparked my interest (this is because I do meditation). Tanjiro, as said before, shows mercy to the villains. And I identify with him! Because of that, I always felt out of place among my friends; they are very pleased to see the villain die, but I no... I have a tight in my heart. I feel sad, very hurt ... I wanted to give these corrupted beings at least a second chance to live. Just to finish: I didn't expect Kimetsu no Yaiba to have such violent scenes, it excited me a lot. But I confess that I'm even more excited for the movie!
Finally, remember: Nezuko is life, Nezuko is love. Protect this preciousness of God.

Warning: this review contains spoilers, because there's no way to talk about Hotaru no Haka without mentioning the events..
This is a very peculiar film by Studio Ghibli, with an unhappy ending and a disastrous setting. It takes place in World War II from the point of view of Seita and Setsuko, two Japanese children. Remember this well: TWO CHILDREN. A very small girl and a young man who must be at most 15 years old.
As far as this studio is concerned, I never thought I would see such a heavy scene at the beginning; that is, a decomposing body. The story goes on and the
...
two young people have no other option but to live at their aunt's house, aunt who has never shown herself to care about the nephews, much less her late sister. She openly called them "plague", did not let them have fun and, as if it were not enough, told Setsuki that her mother had died without any caution. Because of this, they decided to live alone in a shelter.
Many people say that they were proud, and that if they had helped in the house, they could have survived. It turns out there were TWO CHILDREN. They simply wanted to try to find a little corner of joy in the midst of extremely chaotic weather. They were unaware of the consequences this would bring, after all, they recently arrived in the world and did not have the knowledge to make the right decision. Despite that, the boy has always tried to portray a strong older brother in order not to worry his sister, this is venerable.
Having seen that, they had many nice moments at the shelter, but soon it ended with hunger, disease and misery. Seita did his best to survive independently, but unfortunately this is not as simple as it seems. They were two pure and innocent victims of the war suffering from the adults' decision. It really disgusts me... The ending is distressing. To think that it still happens in countries at war makes my heart ache and at the same time it makes me grateful for the life of comfort I have. Thank you universe for being able to eat and sleep peacefully.
About art, it is reasonable (although the animation is great), the soundtrack it's very emotional and the characters are catchy, but not very complex. Worth seeing.

This manga is so much cute. I love rebellious gays (delinquents) and this story was a find for me! It goes soooo much beyond sex, although that has also been portrayed. It's about caring, sharing time with one another, giving advice and going through problems together. Not to mention that he is very unpredictable, breaks yaoi standards (in the second story, the character that appears to be Seme is actually Uke, that was great).
The art is very good and the mood is loud hahahahahaha I laughed too much with the first story, and the second one also brought me some smiles. The crazy guy wanted

to cut his hair like Kurt from Nirvana xD Really really creative ~
