Wind Breaker (Anime) add
Preliminary (3/13 eps)
There are people who say that this show is better than Tokyo Revengers.
The reason it is not even close, is this show isn't even close to being called believable. I couldn't even sit through the first episode without turning it to 2x speed. But lets start with the good points.

1) Animeation - The fight scenes and art is good. Not great, not epic, just good.

That is about all the good points there are. The rest is just bad.

1) Characters - zero depth, not believable, did anyone proof read this before airing? Who wrote this script?

2) Story - what story? It can't even ...

Mononogatari (Anime) add
Preliminary (3/12 eps)
Spoiler Free:
First off, the description of the show is misleading, now lets continue.

Since there are no reviews yet for Mononogatari (no, not Monogatari, mono-no-gatari), I will go ahead and write some thoughts as I proceed to watch this show.

At first glance this show on paper seems like a variation on similar themes as natsume's book of friends or noragami, and maybe some monogatari themes mixed in, with a few flakes of shounen thrown in. From the first few minutes, this show seems great, but literally half way through the first episode, I already feel like the show doesn't want to take itself seriously, while ...

Preliminary (4/24 eps)
I can't give this show more than a 5 for one simple reason. Its a great concept that wastes way too much screen time on useless dialogue. The amount of times I hear the SAME THING repeated over and over, is absurd. Each episode could easily be cut down to a 5-10 minute highlight real and then skip the rest because in these kinds of shows, the dialogue can literally NOT HAPPEN and we will still be entertained. It should be an action anime, not a dialogue heavy shounen. Let the soccer do the talking. I don't need a 5 year old's level play by ...

Big Cyberpunk Gamer Watches Cyberpunk Edgerunners - Spoiler Free

I preordered cyberpunk 2077, and on launch had no issues therefore I played it and enjoyed it. Although there were many issues with the game mostly due to the false advertising, the story was DEEP. And I literally mean, inception/interstellar/attack on titan deep. I didn't know what to expect from the show, so here are my thoughts.

Firstly, if you have not played the game, the show is still fantastic, but you will have a few issues. 1) The language, cyberpunk has a lot of unique jargon and slang, and a lot of the VA in english was ...

Wolf's Rain (Anime) add
Have you been wanting to watch a show that actually respects its audience and doesn't treat it like children? Do you want a show that takes at least an average IQ to understand, and feels like a truly adult show made for grown ups? Do you want a show that cuts out the modern anime diabolical fluff and sticks to the dang plot? This is it!

This is definitely a slow burn. Going in, don't expect to be impressed right away, or even half way! What makes this show is the last 2-3 episodes and then the following OVA is the great crescendo. Is it worth ...

Preliminary (6/13 eps)
I started watching this show when the first episode aired, but immediately dropped it, hopping more episodes will be out later so that I could watch the show at 2x speed. I already had mixed feelings about the show, and still do. Although my over all rating is a 7/10, this show's high score is carried mostly by the art, animation, sound and VA and general plot. Wait...that'ts the entire show right? Well..Sigh, let me explain.

Zero spoiler summary of the show: Imagine a world where instead of one John Wick you have hundreds of them, and they are all cute, adorable lollies. That's it. If ...

Durarara!! (Anime) add
No Spoilers :)

Durarara (and its successive seasons) is an interesting anime that I found after watching Baccano. Both made by Brain Base, I am starting to really dig their work. Instead of having fantastic animation, art, or soundtracks, it really offers something that the entire anime scene lacks, CHARACTER(s).

Like Baccano, Durarara is all about the cast. You love them, you hate them, you ride the roller coaster with them. There isn't really anything "epic" about the story, and as a matter of fact there really isn't anything extraordinary that makes the story good. Not only that, you do have to dedicate time to this series ...

Spoilers Ahead (read it, its only 20 pages).
I really liked this one. I feel like it could have been longer, like Tatsuki's oneshot Goodbye Eri. This story was only 20 pages long if that, and it hit so many different points right out the gate.
Firstly, confessing with a youtube video. The story shows us how trying to be original or unique is looked down upon.
Secondly, the video and people's reactions. The story shows us how a mundane video can be interpreted a million different ways by a million different people. Everyone see's creative work differently.
Thirdly, when the creator tries to explain his creation's meaning and ...

I want to preface with the fact that I rate this a 10/10 Solely because of enjoyment and not because of some objective measurements.

Jujutsu Kaisen is essentially, a Naruto Reboot. I watched Naruto for like 20 episodes at the beginning and 20 episodes at the end and skipped the rest and more or less got the gist of things. It was slow, bland, boring, old. Jujutsu Kaisen takes all of the Naruto features and bundles them in to a more digestible and entertaining show.

Firstly J.K. gives us something to look forward to. Although it has the typical group of protagonists vs antagonists shounen-ing their way ...

Kami no Tou (Anime) add
Mixed Feelings
I remember the hype for tower of God well when it came out but chose to watch God Of Highschool. Honestly, God of highschool was better because it wasn't trying to pretend to be something bigger than it was but it actually over delivered and it's animation was far superior.

Tower of God feels like another shounen troupe anime that would need 5000 episodes to finish. It has your typical characters set by literally every shounen/Isekai anime series from Naruto all the way through to mushoku tensei. You have your comic relief yet strong man, you have the braniac, and then you have the total weakling ...
