So.. Eizoken ni wa Te wo Dasu na! The people from Devilman Crybaby have returned in full glory with their newest anime about three girls taking their city by storm with their animation! Really that is basically the story, but that is not to say that it wasn't enjoyable. Because let me tell you it sure was a heck of fun... Just dont expect this show to be full of characters blooming with personality or an amazingly written story. It is really just your standard anime and yet it feels like so much more...

Story 6/10:
So like mentioned the story isn't something too crazy ... just a standard 12 episode anime about three girls making anime. But along the way the have many obsacles to face and no it is not your generic antagonist which in this case wouldve be en a different animation studio in the same school. No instead the girls face the harsh reality and why for example the marketing of a product can be just as important for their succes as the actual product. Though the story isn't generic or cliché it also isn't something amazing... It's just different, but not as good as other "different" shows.

Art 10/10:
Next the Art and Animation. Holy moly this really was something else! I mean it was to be expected from the likes of Devilman Crybaby. But this was really amazing. The way they portrayed the fantasies of the girls the way the anime the girls made looked the general artstyle the world was made in it was all amazing! Really if there is a reason why I like MOB Psycho 100 it was for the exact reason as Eizouken! because the characters, artstyle and animation were all just amazing! So if you're looking for a relax anime with a different artstyle than your typicial isekai/shounen anime boy do I have the anime for you!

Sound 6/10:
The sound was aight... Just aight there was no bad track nor earblessing track. Though I gotta say that ending be kinda catchy though! Ok lets move on.

Character 7/10:
The characters were also pretty good. They had good chemistry with one another and they were all really memoreable. Even if I don't remember their names. I do remember how they looked which is also part of the Art aspect but whatever. The characters were again nothing amazing, but they were also far from being bad.

Enjoyment 9/10:
So Enjoyment. This show is one everybody can enjoy I'm convinced of it. Though don't expect this to be the next Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood... Eizouken is just full of fun characters, an amazing artstyle, a simple to understand story and a anime that sucks you into its world. So if you don't have an Plan To Watch list full of long running anime then I'd say you should watch this since well if you listen to your government youre probably locked down in your house anyways.

Overall 7/10:
OVerall I really enjoyed the show, but it wasn't one that was pioneering in something it just knew what it was doing and it shows. Though it was fun it wasn't something worth higher than a 8 at least for me... Also I know the review was short, but so was the anime... Anyways I hope this review helped you! Also quick reminder stay inside I don't want my fellow weebs to get infected by that virus :3. Anyways see you all around!

(Contains spoilers up to episode 4)

Ah yes. So we have been blessed with an manga adamptation that is actually good (Cries in Berserk). And damn am I happy this is made by Wit Studio. This truly was a story to be told. Anyway without further ado let's get into the actual review!

(Also Im a Dutch boy sooooo my english can be a bit off, but I hope you dont mind :O)

Story 9/10
Vinland Saga follows the story of a boy named Thorfinn which is like other characters based on the historical characters that share the same names. And this boy seeks to kill a certain man ... named Askeladd after he killed his father Thors, but because Thorfinn is still a 6 year old boy he is too weak to kill his sworn enemy and decides to join his ranks and train so that when he is ready he can fight Askeladd head on. Though this sounds like your typical revenge anime and I would be lying if it isn't. The story is just paced so well that there is always something going on. And even though we mostly don't know what the characters are thinking we can still see in their actions what their goal is, but because you don't know what they are actually there is this uncertain feeling throughout the serie which makes it that you are always invested and you can never really relax. And because of that the anime can just dedicate some time to explain what is actually going on. AAAND because of that the story doesn't feel like your standard revenge story, but rather like a full fledged history lesson with amazing story progression. Lastly I wanted to talk about the world. Because damn does it suck you in. After watching the first episode it is already clear in what era this show is and what the exact goal is and you want to see more! Really after just seeing a single glimpse of Vinland I want to see more of it! Really this anime does a great job sucking you into their world. Oh and just a reminder this season is merely the Prologue of the story that is about to unfold!

Art/Animation 8/10
This one is going to be rather short. After one episode you can already tell that the folks over at Wit Studio really know what they're doing. It really looks like a historical world after seeing the vikings and even the furniture in the houses looks like it has been copy and pasted from an history book. And the animation is maybe not a the level of other short running anime like MOB Psycho 100 or Demon Slayer, but when needed to this show can really look amazing. Mixing in good animation with next level use off the camera some of its fights can look really look just as good as some of its previously mentioned rivals.

Sound 7/10
So this too will be a rather short one. The sound was not something as memoreable as for example Naruto, but it doest set the tone for what is happening on screen and that is all that I really need for a soundtrack. Also the voice actors are really amazing. Really Yuuto Uemura, the voice of Thorfinn does an amazing job performing as the enraged boy.

Character 10/10
Ah the characters. Holy damn is this show full of amazing ones. Yes I have seen the memes saying that Thorfinn has more depth in its character than Sakura has in all of Naruto. Which I cannot say I agree with, nor do I deny it. Anyway I am getting of track. The characters really are something I have never seen. If it is the brutal but likeable Askeladd or the big oaf Thorkell. All even slightly important characters sprout with emotion. Even though they are all Vikings to the core every single one of them acts and looks different from eachother and that really is hard to come across these days.

Enjoyment 8/10
Enjoyment... Well I wouldn't say I didn't enjoy the show because that would be a lie, but it is not necesarry the enjoyment factor that got me into the show, but rather the brutal and/or emotional scenes that really caught my attention. Since this is a rather serious story there aren't going to be a whole lot of jokes which I personally love. I mean I liked Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood because it had such an interesting and serious plot rather than its comedy aspect. So mostly the show is not your typical comedy anime which you can basically see from the visuals and if that is what you came for then youre rather a baka or youre blind... Sorry :3.

Overall 9/10
So Overall this anime was an amazing expierence and one I won't forget. I will wait for a sequel, but if there won't be one then well I guess I am gonna have to read the manga which I don't really care as long as I can see Thorfinn in action again! Anyways that was it for me. If you want more anime like this then I recommend you Attack On Titan, which you probably have already seen because its from the same studio as Vinland Saga... But yeah hopefully you found this review helpfull without being spoiled and then i'll see you around!

This review is spoiler free.

Well then I have been waiting to be able to write a review about an anime that has been around for almost two decades and oh boy what a anime it was. I didn't just teach us that not everything goes as planned it also teached us that everything must come to an end. And unfortunally it did. It did end, but even so this sure was a anime. Anyway let's just start!

Story 9/10: The story, the story is just your standard Underdog Action/Adventure story, but done damn right. You have probably heard of it, but we follow a boy named ... Naruto, a boy that wants to be the hokage, but because he has a monster named the Ninetails sealed inside him everybody in the Hidden Leaf Village (The village Naruto lives in) stays away from him because they know what the Ninetails is capable of doing. But even so Naruto doesn't stop and let his rage take over no! Instead he struggles his way to everything hoping to find a ray of light at the end of the hellish road he has to walk. Overall the story was again just your standard underdog story, but because the series gone on for so long we were able to see all the events in detail and that is what I personally couldn't get enough of. Seeing all the characters grow up and new characters getting just as much growth to them.

Art/Animation 8/10: The art, the art was something I never really liked nor hated. It was well standard, just your typical anime artstyle, but the reason I gave this an 8 is because of the animation. The animation was well overall barely passable, but what made it so it got an 8 then? Well it is actually quite simple It is because of the animation in some of its fights. Yeah the reason why most of the show has "bad" animation is for the sole reason to make a important fight stand out animation wise. And these amazingly animated fights are the reason that I got into Naruto, there is just something so satisfying seeing a fight with incredible animated choreography and a story that they are telling during the fights. It is just perfect, even though it only lasts for a couple of minutes it still drives you to watch more of it even if it is just to see another of those great animated fights.

Sound 8/10: The music of both Naruto and Naruto Shippuden aren't anything outlandish, no the opposite. It is just your upbeat songs but this time around it has a shinobilike vibe to it. And it fits perfectly. But there is none of them that really stands out to me like You Say You Run from Boku No Hero Academia for example. So overall Naruto just has some solid osts which I can enjoy even though I will forget them after the next episode anyway.

Characters 7/10: So the characters. Honestly Naruto has just your basic kind of characters, you have the main character that doesn't know when to give up, the rival of the main character who everybody likes but is depressed as **** and then you have the main waifu who is mostly there for "emotional" moments even though every time she is in an opening she cries. Anyway, even though Naruto has some of the most basic character tropes they are still different and that is because the show went on for so long the characters were able to develop their their feelings. And because of that you still manage to get attached to them.

Enjoyment 10/10: I'll keep this one rather short because there is not much to say. The enjoyment of this show was perfect. The anime managed to find a balance between serious fights and comedic episodes so that it never felt out of place. And because of that I could always enjoy the serious episodes but also the episodes where there are just solid jokes after jokes.

Overall 8/10: Overall the show was really good and truly it was a once in a lifetime anime expierence. I don't know yet if I will watch boruto but what I do know is that this anime now has a special place in my heart even though it is not in my personal top 10 favorite anime.

Well then hopefully you liked this review. This one was rather short but I am satisfied with it. Well then see ya'll!

So Angel Beats!, the anime I wasn't sure of what to think off and because of that I decided to binge it. And here we are. So I gotta say I am surprised of how much I liked it, at first it seemed like your typical school show, but with a little gimmick, for this anime the gimmick was that nobody could die. Well then shall we start?

Story 8/10: The story was great, the pace was good and there was no actual moment when the things that were happening were out of place, just a solid story, but it became more interesting as they found ... out more about the mysterious world they were put in and because of that there was this uncertain feeling surrounding the anime that made you think that anything could be possible at that very moment. You would also think that the story would be very lacking because nobody could die. And yeah sometimes you had that akward moment where somebody should die instead of some random plot-twist saving the day, but because they couldn't die that wasn't necessary. Instead they used this lets say immortality "rule" for comedic purposes and that was just a breath of fresh air as far as I'm concerned. But what the story was lacking was this one moment that some othe similair anime did have (for example Assasination Classroom and Anohana did have this one moment).

Art 9/10: I'll keep this one short, The art is great, it fits the themes and name perfectly and it really makes the world shine!

Sound 7/10: Let's start with the good stuff, the opening theme and ending theme were both great and just like the artstyle fit the anime perfectly. The OST's too were great, though none of them really stood out to me they were all used well in the right moment and right timing. The problem with the sounds lie in the sound effects. The sound effects were decent at best and thats fine, but they used the same sound effects for so many different things. For example if a character jumped out of the air you had the exact same sound as somebody missing a kick or punch. And while they are fundamentely the same it just sounded out of place.

Characters 8/10: The characters were all pretty great, they all had their own backstory and reason to be there, but what I really liked about the characters was the amount. There are only a few anime that have such an exspansive cast and still managing to make them all really interesting, but the thing I liked most is how the group dynamics were handled, every character had their own personality and because of that only really talk to a few others in the group (except for the main few). But when needed the characters can all interact with each other without it feeling sloppy or out of place.

Enjoyment 7/10: I really enjoyed this anime untill the last scene. This is because I really liked most characters and there were these suttle jokes that really made it funny for me, but even though there was a lot of potential for a more comedic approach the comedy factor was rather small and instead they focussed more on important things like the story and character development. That made it really enjoyable at basically any time. Though it is not oustanding in any factors enjoyment wise it was a good mix of all the stuff you would want in an anime like Angel Beats!.

Overall 7/10: The anime was great, it had a good cast of characters, good music and a wellcrafted story. And if my final thoughts about the anime is: The anime really reels you in because of this uncertain vibe that is lingering around the story and when needed they throw a joke at you so you as well as the anime itself can take a quick break and then move on. And so I think if you are looking for a short but sweet story with a relatively big cast of characters then this is the anime for you, but like I mentioned if you are hoping to see that one moment that really makes you want to cry or that you shippers really want to see then I would reccomend these: Assasination Classroom, Anohana, Violet Evergarden, Your Lie In April and Plastic Memories.

(MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS)

Ah, Inazuma Eleven this sure brings back memories. I grew up watching this show, but I never really watched it, I am talking about how I have seen most of the episodes but I never really followed it. Untill now, I watched the anime in its full glory, and it didn't dissapoint! So today I shall share my opinion and thoughts on this anime that I myself consider a classic. Lastly for the sake of this review I will use the subbed names of the characters and not the dubbed names.

Story 7/10: So the story is just your average underdog sports story. We ... follow the likes of Endou Mamoru and his school team Raimon. In the first episode we get straight into the good stuff. They have to face off against the strongest team in the competition Royal Academy and if they lose their soccer-club gets closed. And so Endou starts looking for teammates since he doesn't have enough members. After a long day he manages to get eleven players and they face off against Royal Academy who makes a dramatic entrance. Im not going to explain the match in detail but for short: Raimon lost, but even so during the match a player named Goenji Shuuya, when he switched with a player he made a goal against Royal Academy with his special move "Fire Tornado". And because of that even though they lost the club keeps exisiting since Royal thinks they have potential. After that they play against various teams. This was only the first arc of the anime and I won't talk about the rest of the story since then this review will be ludicrously long. But like I said it is your typical underdog story so sometimes it gets predictable, but that doesn't take away the epic moment where they go beyond their limits and release a new speical move!

Sound 10/10: Inazuma Eleven has an amazing Sound Track seriously, it is my favorite OST to this day! And you could say that is because it feels so nostalgic and in that case you aren't wrong, but the sound track truly is something to be proud of, they did a fantastic job!


Characters 8/10: So the characters, there is a insane amount of them, but even so most of them still have great development and a good backstory. For example you have Ichinose: he is a big soccer fan but had a incident when he was a little kid making him unable to play soccer for a long time, But even so he doesn't give up on his dream to go international. It is those kind of characters that get the show going. They all have their own motivation to win and become the best in the world.

Enjoyment 7/10: The show really is enjoyable for everybody, if you're a kid or even if you are a 15-year-old weeb such as myself, Inazuma Eleven just has this satisfying feeling of seeing your favorite character(s) score a goal or surpass their limits, but like I mentioned earlier. Because it is your typical underdog story sometimes it gets predicable and in that case it is still fun, but it doesn't catch that same satisfying feeling anymore. All in all it is fairly enjoyable to watch alone or with your friends.

Overal 8/10: Overall the show is a great mix of characters, flashy abillities, Great music and Nostalgia. If you grew up with other anime like Pokémon or Avatar then you'll like this too, it has the same kind of cast of characters and a world that is made with care and love for soccer!

Hope you all liked my review and found it helpfull, I wish you all luck in watching this anime, if you are gonna watch it that is, well then see you soon!

(Might include spoilers)

So as a Inazuma Eleven fan this really just hurts, that I have to write a review because this season of Inazuma Eleven has gone downhill so much from its previous season which also wasn't the best(I'm talking about Inazuma Eleven Ares no tenbin) and because I am such a Inazuma Eleven fan I tried to enjoy this I really did but it is just not it. Overall the animation is just really bad and the development of the story is just really rushed. The only small pluspoints I can give this new season is it use of old characters although they don't ... seem to develop like they used to in the first season and the sound is alright the soundtracks are really fun and entertaining but the rest is just really bad sometimes there is not even a sound if the ball is passed. Anyway lets get to it.

Story | 5/10: To me the story feels really forced because they are using the same Inazuma Eleven formula again, there is a team they're the underdogs and there is a traitor within the team. And because of the same formula from the first season it really has gotten predictable. And because of it being so predicatble they tried to change it by adding a company known as the Orion Foundation just as an excuse to get rid of some characters by making a person that works for the Orion Foundation participate in a match and wound a player my for example throwing spikes on the ground like literally spikes (No the referees nor anybody else exept the players notice this). And because of this absurd way of getting rid of characters this story really is bad.

Art/Animation | 3/10: I already talked about this a little but the animation feels really and I mean really sluggish, Also there is no signs in improving, it just looks like they threw their whole budget into the game (that got delayed multiple times already) and because of that the animation is just straight up bad, if you look at the art/animation of Inazuma Eleven Go, Inazuma Eleven Go Chrono Stones and Inazuma Eleven Go Galaxy the animation is just really bad. Though the animation is bad the art is al right I like the way they look more grown up, the old series made them look like they were kids which they are but I mean they looked like theyre from Primary school. Anyway the animation can only improve and the art can get better in its own way.

Sound | 5/10: I have mixed feelings about the sound, the OST's are good, they are reusing some of my favorite tracks from the previous seasons and the new ones are also likeable, but that is not the problem the problem with the sound lies within the sound effects. They are just so bad sometimes even the creators give op by not including the sound of a shot when the ball has been shot and that really is a waste because some great voice actors are working on this (Endou has same voice actor as Naruto Uzumaik Ichinose Kazuya has the same voice actor as Eren Jeager). But same as with the animation it can only get better!

Character | 7/10: I gotta say the characters are the best part of this season, lets start with the good part once; the base of the characters is there some of my all time favorite characters are in there, and I love seeing them mix in with the new characters who are likeable too, but the problem with the characters is that because there are this many characters some characters get no development or the development feels forced, they solved this problem in the first season and in the Go season, but in this season they really didn't put any work in this and its a shame because again the characters are so likeable but because they can't develop naturally really hurts.

Enjoyment | 4/10: As I mentioned already I tried my hardes enjoying this but it is just not good I was so hyped up when I saw that there was going to be more Inazuma Eleven action because Inazuma Eleven Ares no Tenbin was not too bad, they had some of problems but not as much as this anime has so far, its just really unsatisftying to see one of my favorite shows I grew up with end up being so bad. But once again they can only get better from here on.

Overall | 5/10: so I rate this anima a 5/10 just because it is the sequel of a great anime if this was a first season I would have given it even less. It really hurts inside me that I have to give it this low rating and I wasn't too strict while rating it because it is the sequel of the show I grew up with but I just can't give it higher then a 5 sorry people who are enjoying this and if you are good for you I sincerely hope you will keep enjoying it but this show just is not what I was hoping it was.

well then that was a lot of work but I guess my unsatisfying feeling is gone a little, see you around people!

(Might contain spoilers) Overall rating 10


sidenote: this is my first ever review so I doubt it is perfect hoe u guys don't mind much ^-^

Well then oh boy what was this a show! A rollercoaster of both fun and sad moments. overall I think you should really watch this show just to start of your anime watching expiernence because it is a mix of both fantastic art, great story , good developed characters and a good mix of both shounen, school and slice of life. Also because it is a school anime you can always relate to at least one of the students and that ... is what I had with Nagisa Shiota the main protaganist.

Story | 10: So the story is not what it seems at first sight because the title (Assasination Classroom/Ansatsu Kyoushitsu) sound very violent but I would not say it is not violent because it is but its not as violent as you think it might be, but the story is really fun and entertaining since it features a octupus like creature (Koro-Sensei) that wants to destroy the world but gives earth a chance by teaching a class of teenagers to assasinate him. This formula really makes it interesting to see how these kids will develop and so I give it a 10/10.

Art | 8: I will keep this one rather short, I really like the artstyle but it isn't the best I have seen but I don't think art is a big factor anyway.

Sound | 10: I really really liked the soundtrack not to mention both the openings were fantasic! I still listen to all of them to this day, but the point is the soundtrack was I think really something I have not heard before and so I give it a easy 10!

Character | 10: The characters in this show are really likeable, lets take Karma Akabane as an example, he is a really smart and strong boy whilst at the same time he is a real culprit since he always jokes around with his victims. Overall the whole class has good development as a whole and individual, obviously the main characters have more development although I think without the two main students this anime would still have been an absolute masterpiece.

Enjoyment | 10: I loved this anime its still my favorite and it will stay for the time being, I really enjoyed the show because as I already mentioned all the class studensts gone through enough development, the soundtrack is great and the story is fantastic, thus I really enjoyed watching the anime because it was both really funny and serious at the same time!
