Fate Redline, my God what a start to an ongoing series. So far I've only gone down 10 chapters into the series and it is looking promising. I didn't know I needed a WW2 setting fate WITH JAPANESE HEROIC SPIRIT until I saw Redline. Redline has a good balance of action, dialogue and lore where even if you only tell someone the base premise of the holy grail war, they would still be able to understand the story without reading/watching previous works.
Ok, time to get into the manga and the nitty gritty things. The manga offers superb art style with highly detailed manga panels
...
with some 2 page spans that can be found occasionally. I know art style is subjective, but you can't deny how nice it looks, especially with nobunaga, really love her design. As for the characters, they could do some work, but at least the mc isn't horny for his own grandma which is good because most series these days tend to do the opposite if you know what I mean. I guess time will tell because there isn't much out yet and nothing much can be said for the characters, but overall, can say the characters are pretty good so far.
Overall if I am really comparing to the other fate series I have seen (Fate Zero, UBW, HF, Apocrypha, FGO), this probably hooked me the most out of them all I am not gonna lie. In general, this manga hooked me really fast from the first chapter which says something.
In conclusion, if you like fate and nasu's other work, you are definitely gonna like this one. It's a fresh take and the art style is beautiful.

Paripi koumei is a very unexpected anime from this anime season. After finishing the anime, I feel the need to give this a review as this is one of my favorite anime for many reasons that I would explain within this review.
Story : 9/10
The story of paripi koumei is a nice blend of isekai (kinda) and music. This premise is very unique and I've never seen a premise like this from other animes that I have watched. In my honest opinion, the characters are the reason why this anime is as good as it is. This anime is very refreshing because it is something
...
that I genuinely never seen before. Maybe it's because of the lack of anime I've watched, but honestly everything about the story is just class. Some plots of the story I feel like is lacking a bit is probably the relationship between nanami and eiko. I felt that the story could flesh out the relationship between the two slightly more, but overall, the story is really good.
Art : 9/10
I have to give it to P.A Works, this anime is very well animated. Nothing awkward done in terms of camera angles and the usage of things like cgi is very minimal. The color palate used is very nice and blends with the emotions felt from the anime very well. The color language is on point for most parts and I do very much enjoy it.
Sound : 10/10
For this section of the review, I would discuss about the music as it is still considered as sound lol. The songs are on point. Kuroneko (96Neko) and Lezel did an amazing job with the endings, and their respective songs which are part of the narrative. Be Crazy For Me is an amazing showcase of kuroneko's voice and really displays her character very well. Underworld is probably one of my favorite ones from this entire anime which was done by Lezel. They also smashed it out of the park with Kibun Joujou (The anime's ending) which is a throwback to a certified hood classic from the 2006's. Not forgetting to mention, Dreamer, which is Eiko's final song in the anime is absolutely a banger. For these reasons alone, this anime is worth watching for people who love music. (Not gonna forget kabe's rap battle with both sekitoba kung fu and koumei himself, those were pretty creative as well).
Characters : 10/10
To put into short words, I LOVE the characters. They are very smartly written and given proper backstories and motivations to make them feel like a human more than a anime character. I especially liked what they did with Karasawa at the end which I can't really get into because of spoilers. Overall, the word smart is what comes into mind when thinking of the characters because they are very well written and given proper back story. The only character that I feel like is given less development is probably people like the manager, but then again, I don't think he has many significant roles to give a reason to develop the character further.
Enjoyment : 10/10
I fully enjoyed this anime very much. From start to end, I didn't miss a single week of this anime airing and it was such a joy to watch from start to end. I highly recommend this to people who love music and love watching anime revolving around it. I can guarantee that you will enjoy this anime very much. This anime is such a good anime to just sit back and relax and just simply enjoy the anime. Perfect for everyone.

Overall Rating : 1/10
Kanojo okarishimasu is one of the few mangas that I have read weekly and I haven't missed a single chapter since 2020 when I first finished binge reading this series when the anime was airing. Despite being one of the mangas that I read every week, this manga is horrible. The characters have no depth and the story onwards from chapter 160 above is just stretched out too far and it lacks any other reasons for reading it besides it being stupidly hilarious to read a dumpster fire.
Art Style : 7/10
The art style of kanokari (gonna write it like this onwards)
...
is quite the standard for mangas in general. Sure its not the best I've seen, but the quality is alright and it is manageable. There are some panels that span 2 pages and I thought it was pretty decent in some parts.
Characters : 1/10
As I mentioned before in the overall rating, the character lacks any depth. The main protagonist whines a lot and the lead female character is too dense. A little bit of a spoiler to the overall story, Kazuya seems to always say something along the lines of "she's so pretty" and stuff like that over and over again which gets very repetitive most of the time. Like, we get it and we don't need to get reminded of that every chapter. As for the supporting characters, I really despise Ruka's character even though she is much liked by the community at some parts of the story, but I think she is just plain annoying. As for Mami, where do I even start with her. At first I thought she was a very well written character at the start but as time progresses, it seems like Reiji don't know what to do with her and just made her the 'antagonist' of the whole kanokari series. The last supporting character that I can think off for now is probably Sumi. I seriously don't know what happened to her because I haven't seen her for what feels like an entire decade at this point.
Enjoyment : 8/10
As bad as this manga is, it is pretty enjoyable to read for all of the wrong reasons. If you like reading bad mangas to have a good laugh with your friends, I say this will give you the same amount of enjoyment as I have right here.
Verdict : Thanks for reading my review first of all if you read everything up to this point, and if you didn't and just want to know my final verdicts on this manga, my thoughts on this manga is that you shouldn't read this manga. There are many more mangas that are in the same genre and could give you more enjoyment. Don't waste your time with this manga like I did because I can't get all of the time I lost back. What I could say is that if you are planning on reading this, just keep in mind that it's not going to be good and don't come in with high hopes. That's all for the review and thanks once again :).
