Zenshuu. (Anime) add
Do you remember your first anime? How has your discovery of that anime and the medium in general impacted your life? For some, watching anime has led them down an artistic path, whether it's just drawing pictures, drawing manga or comics, or working on new anime for others to fall in love with just as they had. Sometimes, an anime about just making animation could be the one that makes that impact on someone. Zenshuu, MAPPA's latest anime original project, is such an anime that could influence someone to go down the path of an animator. When I started watching it, I was disappointed to ...

Sakamoto Days (Anime) add
Remember "Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto"? The Winter 2025 anime season gave us another Sakamoto, one that you're more likely to have heard of, given that he's from a popular Shounen Jump manga. I sure had heard quite a bit of the manga in question, "Sakamoto Days", even before its anime adaptation was announced; I've even read the manga's pilot one-shot, "Sakamoto"! Unfortunately, the anime hasn't been received as positively as anticipated, seemingly mainly because of the animation. Can "Sakamoto Days" still be considered good in spite of its hiccups, though? For its first half, at least, I'd say so.

In "Sakamoto Days", the titular Tarou ...

If you've fallen as far down the anime rabbit hole as I have over the years, you would know about some really bad anime. Two anime largely considered to be the worst of them all are a pair of OVAs known as "Mars of Destruction" and "Tenkuu Danzai Skelter Heaven". Personally, I still think "Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo" is worse than both of them, but I can't deny how incomprehensibly bad both are. Before those two bad anime could run, however, Spectral Force had to walk. Like Mars of Destruction and Tenkuu Danzai Skelter Heaven, Spectral Force is based on a game from the ...

They say that evil never sleeps, but that's not always true. Whether it's spent sleeping, eating ice cream, or watching pandas at the zoo, even villains trying to take over the Earth need some time off from all of that. That sentiment is best demonstrated in the anime "Mr. Villain's Day Off", the subject of today's review. I didn't watch it back when it was airing, but I had been hearing about it quite a bit; thus, I eventually decided to give it a watch. If there's one thing I can take away from this anime besides the whole "needing to take some time off" ...

Preliminary (17/17 chp)
Weekly Shounen Jump is probably one of the most cutthroat manga magazines there are out there. If you’re unable to keep readers engaged for each chapter you release of your manga to the magazine, you could be faced with an early cancellation. Its digital counterpart, Shounen Jump+, is the same way; many manga on this app/website have had their final chapters published when they haven’t even been publishing for a year. One such manga is the subject of today’s review, Magokoro Scramble, which ended today after first being released in October of last year. When I found out Magokoro Scramble was being cut short, I ...

Have you ever decided that you weren't going to accomplish a goal until you accomplished another one first? Like, you might have decided that you weren't going to ask someone out until you had done something else that might impress them. For example, beating them at chess....or really, Japanese chess, also known as shogi. Look, I'm no expert at shogi or chess - the one time I can recall playing chess, I tried to play it with the checkers ruleset - but I have seen my fair share of romantic comedy anime. As of the time of me writing this review, the well-liked "Teasing Master ...

Around 2021-2022, I watched an anime called "Blood-C", which followed a girl named Saya who fights against monsters. I'm aware that the description I gave was very basic and boring, but I think that describes how I felt about that anime; despite a very interesting plot twist toward the end of that series and a sequel movie that slightly improved the whole thing, I thought Blood-C was very boring. Despite that, I felt compelled to go back and watch the anime movie that started the franchise Blood-C is a part of, "Blood: The Last Vampire", which follows a girl named Saya who fights against monsters. ...

Valentine's Day is coming up soon, and you know what that means; it's time for the single people of the world to envy the couples of the world as we indulge in candy and love stories! I mean, I'm mostly fine with staying single, but there's nothing wrong with reading a cute little shoujo romance manga, right? As if to fulfill my desire for a love story to read this February, I happened to notice that someone I follow on AniList had just finished a manga with a cute-looking cover called "Hajimete Koibito ga Dekimashita." After reading the synopsis and realizing how short these 22 ...

Death Parade (Anime) add
It's all too easy to judge people with a black-and-white mindset. This person's good, that person's evil, the whole shebang. In actuality, people are a lot more complicated than that, and you can't really judge a person by their cover. One person could be cruel and antagonistic while also genuinely wanting those she loves to have happy lives; another could aim to get vengeance for those who have been wronged while also letting a crime happen for the sake of "evidence". There is a number of stories that make us think about morality in ways like this, but few of them are quite like Death ...

I said before in my Zannen nagara Chigaimasu review that if you're going to fall in love with someone, you should take the time to get to know them before deciding that you want to be with them for the rest of your life. I still stand by what I said there, as marriage is a major commitment that will change the course of your life. That being said, some people may be desperate enough to avoid circumstances that they may be pushed into that they'll do whatever it takes to avoid it. Take the main characters of the anime I'm covering today, for example. ...
