Saint Seiya (Anime) add
The apotheosis of anime Mythos.

The greatest of the modern myths, and the most resplendent in both absurdity and sublimity, that in its shimmering extravagance, ascends to the heights of Dante, plunges into the depths of Heraclitus, and shatters with cosmic fists the stale stone idols of our post-shonen era(although coming from the golden age of anime, but still remaining relevant with both the classic saga and the later titles who add to the lore).

Saint Seiya is a sacred epic presented as a battle-shonen, a transfiguration of metal and myth. Like all true works of art, it is not the invention of man, but a mirror ...

A very short, simple and yet deep and meaningful story.

There has always been in the world of storytelling(but it seems to me, more appealing in modern times), a peculiar hunger for tragedy, a hunger not merely for sorrow but for meaning in sorrow. Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan is precisely such a tale, a profound meditation on broken souls and the improbable grace that bridges the chasms between them. And at the very core of this tale pulses the unmistakable rhythm of catholic thought(which is often reminded to us also through the iconography of the manga), the sacrament of suffering, the mystery of redemption, and ...

So this is the dumbest sh*t that I ever had read in my entire life!

There is a tale about 3 priests that are visited by the Devil himself and so he asks them; if it was possible to time travel, what would they change in human history?
- The first priest said he would've prevented Adam and Eve from eating the forbidden fruit.
- The second one claimed a more bold statement saying he would've tried to convince the Devil to be loyal to God instead of creating the very first sin.
- The third priest was the most humble between them and so he kneeled and prayed ...

Deus ex machina through cyber-gnosis or simply: Kidou Senshi Gundam Suisei no Majo.

First of all I would like to appoint that the pace of this show is somehow compromised to help build a relationship between the characters(it starts slow and later gets rushed), that despite this, end up being very clunky just because some of the characters aren't real persons but intend to be like archetypes or merely someones will(some of the characters are literal homunculus), the post prologue beggining is kinda shady about its aim and attain to some college vibes, mixing the casual life of a brand new student with some transhumanist dilemmas. ...

Mashle (Manga) add
Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (128/162 chp)
Mob (Psycho 100)
Asta (Black Clover)
Saitama (OPM)
Harry Potter (!)

The MC name gives it all, this is not supposed to be very original, it's a parody from Harry Potter that includes some elements from One Punch Man and some other mangas. At the very beggining, I would say the first 20 chapters, Mashle is pretty funny and enjoyable, but as the story goes it turns to be just a tasteless pastiche that clings to the most generic clichés from shonnen genre. At some point Mashle stop being so casual and clowny and presents us with a myriad of artificial characters that are just there to be stepped ...

Eve no Jikan (Anime) add
First of all this show seemed to me more like a propaganda than anything else, its premise is something like Toy Story or the Cogito Virus from Ergo Proxy but instead the androids keep following the laws of Asimov, so they develop their own personalities with their own desires that they only can manifest in certain areas but always attached to their owners good.

There are a few interesting moments in the show for example when 2 androids trick each other into making the other one believes they're humans instead but overall they are all portrayed as one sided good beings bearer of "hearts", it's just ...
