Zombieland Saga is not about Zombies.
Zombieland Saga is not about moe.
Zombieland Saga is not about idols.
Zombieland Saga is not about music.
Zombieland Saga is not (only) about selling merchandise.

Zombieland Saga is about gentrification, persistence of historical memory and a very light touch of Sentai (you can see all the archetypes there). It's about people doing good together and how we're strong when we're united, being able to face and defeat all adversities in our paths. It's about love, any kind of love. It's about believing in other people.

Zombieland Saga is the food you love, but hate all its ingredients.

Watch it, please.

I had to re-watch the first season to remember what was going on and prepare for that second season. Despite having its flaws that are inherent in the mystery genre, it is still a very interesting and engaging anime by the atmosphere, themes and plot twists.

This second season, however, is a mess. Despite exploring some of the cliffhangers left in the first, everything happens without any practical justification. Kirisami being alive had already been hinted at in the first season at times, but the reason for that and the way it was done was stupid. Izanami mysteriously returns from the dead and her existence is ... dealt with in a way as if she were always there. It is outrageous with everything that the first season built.

And it is obvious that these six episodes do a terrible job of developing the parallel characters. The first season, even though it was twice the size, had already done a great job of character development halfway through. Here, the characters are badly written.

Of course, it is worth noting the fact that these six episodes leave a cliffhanger, which clearly demonstrates that they were probably looking to produce something longer, but stumbled upon production problems. I guess this was because the production values were clearly much lower than the first. The quality of the animations here is of a very low level. The battle scenes are embarrassing, especially compared to the first season.

In the end, there is only one word to define B - Succession: disappointing.

This ONA series based on Gen 8 is a classic example of style over substance. It started to show some potential, especially because it's something like we're actually watching a story through the eyes of the Corvinight — hence the title of the series.

What really killed it is that with the episodes being released in a monthly schedule, they started to become stale and boring. It's a month of wait to watch fucking nothing in most of times. Wooloo episode, specifically, is the bottom of the pit. "Duh, it's cute, bruh". See? Style over substance.

Yes, you can see how much effort Studio Colorido puts ... in this, since animation is amazing, but there's nothing really interesting in the plot and it's just another Pokémon story. We learn just a very little (or nothing at all) about the characters, from the game or exclusive to this series.

Together, all episodes can be worth something, but the experience of watching this through half a year was suffering. You maybe can find it enjoyable by watching everything at once, in a binge-watching, but the effort to watch 5 minutes of nothing and then wait a month to watch 5 more minutes of it only worked against it.

Why internet is shitting on this movie?

Because it's exactly the same movie everyone watched 20 years ago.
But in CG.

And now, story-wise, people are realizing this movie doesn't make any sense.

Especially now, with a more accurate plot — since the legend of the storm added in the original dub actually justified why the pokémon tears would have the power to turn Ash back. Without this, it's just a power that came from nowhere.

Yea, this movie sucks.
...
But no one wants to admit.

And then, blame the CGI.

Yea, I like CGI, but this one is atrocious.

This movie is good for one thing: it's breaking the nostalgia googles of everyone. It's a shame we went back to this monstrosity after the delightful story we got in The Power of Us.

In the beginning of Human Lost, I wasn't understanding anything from the plot. At the last minutes of the movie, I felt the same way I was in the beginning.

It has great action scenes, but most of them are tied by a super weak and dumb plot that doesn't make sense, pretentious shit. It was clearly trying (and failing) to emulate Akira and Ghost in the Shell.

The character design is nice (done by Kozaki), but that's it.

I tend to defend CG animation in Anime and I think people are prejudiced in most of the cases they are criticizing not only the animation, but ... entire story just for the sake of criticizing. However, this movie really sucks — and believe it, the animation is the best thing here.

The problem with Black Fox is bcause it is an enjoyable well-polished anime that still lacks something.

The story reminds me of some 90's OVA's, but with an updated aesthetic for our times and a softer tone, without all the gratuitous gore. Think about something close to Birdy the Mighty beat.

The technical aspects of Black Fox are amazing, with gorgeous animation, but it somewhat lack its own style. You know, if Trigger were responsible for the movie, they would have made it unique and would receive critical acclaim. It still have a gorgeous animation, but still kinda generic, without its own identity.

The characters ... are kinda undeveloped, BUT IT'S A MOVIE AND IT'S OKAY TO NOT HAVE TIME TO DEVELOP MULTILAYERED CHARACTERS BECAUSE IT'S A MOVIE. The thing about it is that this movie is clearly made to be a setup for a proper series and I'm eager to see more of the girls and how their bond can develop with more screen time.

To be honest, this is a well-intentioned and unpretentious big anime episode. I've seen worse, actually bad stuff, being acclaimed for much less.

I don't really know what I watched here.
If you ask me "what happens in Hero Mask", I can't explain. I remember the beginning, the girl diying and the mask stuff, but that's all.

I can't see any progression here.
I can't understand any of the characters motivations.
I can't even recognize the caracters of it and what they are.

That happens mostly because nothing happens in the course of the series. Yea, there's some things I can remember in the middle of it and in the end, but the plot doesn't make any sense and the show doesn't even have a premise.

Yea, the mask from the title is ... there and we learn its properties in from the start of the series, but we are fooled by it because Hero Mask isn't about it and we even forgot about its existence sometimes.

The sound is dumb. The animation is Naruto-tier, with character designs that are beautifully generic.

It's a waste of time. 15 episodes of nothing happening and pure boredom.

You know, this is an EVA clone.

But while Evangelion is christian, we can say this anime is the Atheist Evangelion, since they use evolutionary theory, chaos theory and string theory instead of bible and catholic lore to tell almost the same story, with almost the same structure, but with a nicer ending.

Juushinki Pandora can be pretty bad and boring sometimes, but its concept overall is very entertaining and kept me until the end.

Also, the characters are cool and interesting and I like the world-building. The sniper's subplot is amazing.

I'm only upset this could be prettier. The animation sucks. Like, it really sucks. Overall, ... the technical aspects of it are pretty lame. And the fanservice is dumb as fuck.

It's an OVA episode released after the end of the main series. We have seen it countless times already. Highschool of the Dead, Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka, Deadman Wonderland, Nazo no Kanojo X and a few other OVAs that are completely bullshit and fucking useless to the story. On top of that, Episode 12 of Jashin-chan Dropkick is a fucking beach episode.

The most peculiar thing about it is, unlike the OVAs from the series I already used for comparison, this one is surprisingly good. It's probably better than any episode of the main anime by itself. You know, in opposition to the first eleven ... episodes with fucking nothing and dumb gags that makes you feel guilty for finding them funny, I'm pretty found of the storyline of this one.

Heck, the thing is: we get some conflict here. And it's more than we already saw before in this anime. It's surprisingly nice to watch. You obviously won't like it if you already don't like the main series, but it's worth a try if you find it at least entertaining.

I keep seeing "Cells at Work is innovative", but I'm sorry to say that it may be really nice to watch, but it's pretty far from being innovative, since I remembered about Osmosis Jones already in the first episode.

At the start, it's very interesting to see some diseases from a point of view of anthropomorphic cells. The problem is that it quickly becomes stale, since every episode is almost the same, but with a different health problem. The ending is pretty anticlimactic. [SPOILERS] They should have had saved cancer for the end and somehow combined it with hemorrhagic shock. Since it's pretty stupid how they ... got rid of the cancerous cell without chemotherapy or something like this. [END OF SPOILERS]

Yes, the comparison with Osmosis Jones is inevitable, with the difference that the western movie (and its subsequent cartoon) is better because the plot lines are different between the episodes, when Cells At Word doesn't even has any plot to keep the audience watching and continuously interested.

And seriously. I hear people are saying "I learned more from it than from biology classes", but this is pretty dumb. You shouldn't skip classes and put your trust in an animated TV series. It would be pretty stupid to do something like this. Come on, you don't even remember the name of the cells other than white and red blood cells. It may work as a complement, but not as a substitute.

In the end, Hataraku Saibou is nice to watch, but nothing more. Storywise, Osmosis Jones may not be brilliant, but is actually better than this.
