Nana has probably got to be one of the heaviest and most depressing anime I've ever watched so far, it's a lot more straight forward with topics here and I like how the dialogue runs smoothly in each episode. Every voice actor did a perfect job.

- Spoilers for the next part of this review -





... Now what I don't like about this show is how Hachi is made to be an idiot here (sadly there are women who act like this irl). Right after the episode where she decided to keep the baby and stay with Takushit, I realized that this bitch wasn't ever going to leave this man regardless of how he treats her. One minute he acts all nice then the next minute when he gets angry, he puts her down and somehow Hachi doesn't see any red flags at all. I really wanted Hachi to get an abortion and find her own self-worth with actual character development instead of repeating the same cycles by acting like she is in love with these men.


What really concerns me is the number of high ratings this anime has, like how do you give such a crappy and rushed ending a 9 or 10. We don't even know if Nana and Ren got together in the end or if they're dead. After all of that past tense shit going on in every beginning and ending of each episode only to not have a good ending, we're supposed to be satisfied with it the way it is???

I'm gonna make this short and simple.

I enjoyed the movie and characters, especially how outgoing the main girl is. It's sorta cliche tho, reserved dude meets 'eccentric and expressive' girl, *cough*
"YLIA" and "I want to eat your pancreas". I shouldn't be complaining though, I don't think i've ever seen any other movie like this. Although I would have liked a better backstory of the catland and stuff.

The magicalness and the cats give me modern Ghibli vibes.

What really captivated me what the art, it somehow reminded me of a korean anime called "A day before us" with the light and darkish color everything ... has.

Moral of the story is, don't ever think you're alone in any situation. There's always going to be someone that understands you. You just gotta give it time to know the person and eventually when they notice you, they'll reciprocate their feelings back.
Everyone has a part of them they keep tucked inside so that others won't see. Being in a dark place isn't fun at all, hiding your real feelings and thoughts eventually takes a toll on yourself which is why you shouldn't be afraid to talk to someone about it.
You never know who you'll least expect to truly understand you, that person could be right under your nose.

Ah, here we go again. Normally I don't make that many reviews but in this case I should really speak my mind out about this anime. A few years ago I decided to watch it and the second season along with Ordinal Scale, I rated them all a 10 surprisingly. I decided to rewatch this yesterday just to remember the plot since I wanted to catch up on the series, now here's where it all goes downhill.

Now I get it where people come from when they said that SAO was trash and they're so right. Here we have Kirito with his edgy and happy ass ... self and Asuna first starting off as a great strong woman but the huge turn in character change was when she became the damsel in distress after falling for Kirito. Before I complain more about the characters let me just say how trash the whole plot was.

When they all got trapped in the game, the huge timeline skip doesn't even make sense. It only mainly focuses on the game itself and how they are all going to get out; we don't get any background stories about the characters and flashbacks or just any real emotions for the whole time, nor we don't even see how families and other people react in the real world to the whole situation. It's like everything is so casual, a lot of that would have made a great storyline for it to fit in the anime just for the first season instead of throwing in some psycho guy that wanted to marry Asuna and locking her up in a god damn bird cage.

Now what really irks me is Kiritos cousin and yes there are other girls that are thirsty for him but she bothers me the most. THEY ARE COUSINS FOR GODS SAKE, we don't even get how Kirito was raised by his aunt and why even not bothering to tell them that they aren't siblings. I just think it's ridiculous that she fell in love with her own cousin, it ruins the whole anime even more just by thinking about it. Another thing that bothers me is Yui, she's one of the most useless and annoying characters. It's pure cringe when she became the child of Kirito and Asuna, I honestly laughed because of how bad the whole thing was when they all started playing house and what's even more funnier is that they're 16/17. I swear if they have a kid in real life I don't know what they're going to do with Yui in that case.

Overall, SAO had some great potential with the great animation they had back in 2012. The whole thing felt rushed and random miracles just came out of nowhere, at least The Seven Deadly Sins had a better plot for the first 3 seasons so far despite the hate it got for the latest animation.

I'm glad I made this review to clarify only the first season, I might not even bother to waste my time catching up on it since i'm sure it got way worse from there.

I gave it a 4 just to be nice :)

This movie is what touches my heart the most out of all Studio Ghibli movies, when I was about 5 or 6 I remember my parents buying the DVD of Kiki's Delivery Service. As I watched the movie I was so captivated by the animation and everything about it, it was like I was being pulled into another world.

I eventually forgot about it as I grew older but I always felt like that the movie was a dream and pieces of the movie would pop into my mind, everything changed until 6th grade, my social studies teacher showed us a movie that made all of ... my nostalgia flow back to me. Who would of thought fate showed me back to one of the most precious moments of my childhood, watching the first few minutes of Kiki's Delivery Service again made me realize that I never dreamed about it and I almost bawled my eyes out, a few days later we watched My Neighbor Totoro and that's how I started getting into anime.

Since then, anime has been a big part of my life and I hope it'll never fade away.
