Mixed Feelings
I felt disappointed in this film, and I fear that Prisma Illya may become tainted by Shirou. I feel this because Shirou is too serious.

I also should mention this is NOT a filler movie, it provides backstory from the original 3rei manga for Miyu and Shirou.

Story 5

Focusing on Pre-Illya Miyu and 'alternate' Shirou, this film aims to provide a decent backstory towards the two. The first half of the film focuses mainly on how Shirou meets Miyu, and the building of their relationship, despite any original intentions Shirou may of had.

The second half focuses on the 'you-know-what' events in the 3rei ...

I can't believe this show is my favourite anime of the past few years, this season of the anime is my favourite. If you haven't saw the earlier seasons then why are you reading this review? Anyway this anime is an adaptation of the second half of the 2wei manga.


Story 8/10

This season is pretty much the slice of life season, the first half made up of episodes such as trips to the beach, festivals and amusement parks. Each character has their own comedic 'role' to play, whether it's Miyu's deadpan humour, Illya's WTF reactions, or even Tatsuko's hyper-energy style of living. There's plenty ...

Preliminary (83/148 eps)
5th Part of Yu-gi-oh based on the famous children's card game (CCG).

Each part is completely separate from the others, with minor references or crossovers in some cases, though nothing important that you need to know before watching.

They don't make up the rules either like Part 1, which is likely the most familiar series to people here.

It's 83 episodes long so far, I remember it picking up around episode ~15 for me and again somewhere in the 30s. I mean a general improvement in quality, it doesn't drop down between them.

Like the other arcs, Duel Monsters is akin to a major sport, and ...

I'm bored so I'm going to review this.

Story -

Itou Kaiji, a depressed NEET loser who spends his time with petty crime and generally being miserable gets to go on a cruise.

Not just any cruise though, a cruise ship paid for and owned by the Teiai Corporation, which is pretty much the Yakuza. They make money from gambling, slavery, loan sharks and most likely legitimate stuff too, there isn't a large span of episodes detailing the intricate details of the organisation because it's not called "Teiai Group the animation". It's Kaiji.

Owing 3 million yen (£16k) debt traced back to him due to co-signing a ...

Beast 9 (Manga) add
Preliminary (22/34 chp)
Since no one has written a review I feel I might as well.

Beast 9 - A Mecha manhwa which I picked up because Park, Jin-Hwan (of The Breaker fame) was the artist.

Story-6
13 years ago a mysterious enemy named Eraser invaded Earth. With humanity on the verge of collapse The Beast - a weapon equip to counter the Erasers power appeared. Created by the heroic (and perverted) commander-in-chief of the MAGIC Brigade Mr. Vincent, will The Beast be the savior the world needs?

*The MAGIC Brigade are the force which the Beast pilots serve under.
** 6 is a tentative scoring, the plot is starting ...

Green Blood (Manga) add
I've seen debates about the naming of this manga. I feel its worth mentioning that Green refers to Irish and Blood to gangs (I'd assume).

Now onto the relatively short tale of revenge.

Story- 6

The story takes place in the USA, during the industrial revolution. Immigrants are flooding into the country which has led to the 6th District of New York, known as the Five Points being considered the worlds worst slum and is an area which is completely under the control and the law of various Irish gangs.

There isn't much room for development with it being short, add 40-50 more chapters and I'd ...

Preliminary (129/203 chp)
(Read The Breaker before moving on to this) - 129 Chapters as of writing.
*TL;DR versions underneath the long ones :P

After I finished The Breaker in about a week and loving it I moved onto New Waves with a hopeful expectation it would live up to the original story. For me, it's done more than that.

Story - 10

The story carries on directly from The Breaker, with Shi-Woon losing his Ki Centre (allowing him to control the flow of his Ki, allowing him to use Murim-esque abilities).

After Goomoonryong's departure Shioon is trying to adjust to a normal life once more, although due ...

This is my first review and my grammar is usually pretty poor so sorry if this is bad. I'm writing this view mainly on the assumption you are a fan of either Rave or Fairy Tail.

*Fairy Tail x Rave takes place sometime after the Oración Seis arc in Fairy Tail and the Blue Guardians arc in Rave Master.

*If you've watched the Fairy Tail x Rave trailer then this should be spoiler free.

Story- As this is a crossover don't expect much story. The way the chain of events played out was decent but its not really the focus of this OVA anyway. Both Dark Bring ...
