Tonikaku Kawaii, also known as "Fly Me to the Moon," captured the hearts of many with its charming and heartwarming first season. Now, with the arrival of Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2, the love story between Nasa and Tsukasa continues to blossom, leaving me eagerly anticipating each new episode. This review aims to highlight the strengths and overall experience of the second season.
One of the standout aspects of Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 is the consistent portrayal of the endearing relationship between Nasa and Tsukasa. Their love for each other is as strong as ever, and it's heartwarming to witness their unwavering support and affectionate moments. The
...
series continues to strike a perfect balance between the cute and comedic moments and the more tender and heartfelt scenes, creating a well-rounded experience for viewers.
The animation quality remains consistent with the first season, with vibrant colors and visually pleasing character designs. The art style perfectly complements the lighthearted nature of the story, maintaining a cheerful and inviting atmosphere throughout. The animation also shines during the more emotional moments, effectively conveying the characters' feelings and adding depth to the story.
Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 introduces a few new supporting characters, further expanding the world of the series. While their presence is enjoyable, it's worth noting that the focus remains primarily on Nasa and Tsukasa's relationship. The show manages to strike a good balance, allowing the new characters to contribute to the overall narrative without overshadowing the main couple's development.
Additionally, the humor in Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 remains as delightful as ever. The comedic timing and witty dialogue provide numerous laughs, making it a joy to watch. The series continues to utilize its humor to enhance the overall storytelling experience without detracting from the emotional depth of the romance.
However, Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 does have a minor flaw. The pacing occasionally feels slow, with some episodes focusing more on slice-of-life moments rather than progressing the main plot. While these moments are very enjoyable for people like me who see a slice-of-life shows as one and expecting the plot to progress slow it might not help viewers seeking significant plot developments, they may feel slightly disappointed by the lack of forward momentum in certain episodes which is not a bad thing when the whole show is literally a slice of life so the day to day life moments are the important part of the show.
In conclusion, Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 successfully captures the essence of the first season, delivering a delightful continuation of Nasa and Tsukasa's adorable romance. The lovable characters, beautiful animation, and well-balanced humor contribute to an enjoyable viewing experience. While the pacing may feel slow at times, the series excels at showcasing the endearing love between the main couple. Fans of the first season will undoubtedly find Tonikaku Kawaii Season 2 to be a worthwhile and heartwarming watch.

91 Days is an exceptional anime series that left a lasting impression on me, even after a span of two years since watching it. What made it truly remarkable was the fact that I stumbled upon it without any prior knowledge of its creators, recommendations, or even a glimpse of its poster. With a clean slate, I embarked on a journey into this captivating world, and the experience was nothing short of enthralling.
Set in an industrialized, gangster-dominated America, 91 Days follows a classic Shakespearean narrative where the protagonist's family falls victim to a powerful criminal organization. Fueled by a burning desire for revenge, the main
...
character plunges into a dangerous game of deception, power struggles, and intricate alliances. The story takes a refreshingly realistic approach in portraying the harrowing consequences of embracing one's own darkness while pursuing vengeance. It explores the morally ambiguous nature of human beings and the tragic transformation that can occur when consumed by hatred.
Visually, the animation in 91 Days is a treat for the eyes. Initially, I thought it would adopt a standard anime style, but the series went above and beyond to recreate the atmosphere of the early 1900s. The attention to detail in the art and character designs is commendable, as it successfully captures the essence of that time period. This departure from the usual anime aesthetic was a pleasant surprise and added a unique flavor to the overall viewing experience.
One aspect that particularly stood out in 91 Days was its exceptional music. Having TK, a renowned musician, on board to create the opening theme speaks volumes about the creators' dedication to delivering a high-quality production. The music not only complements the series perfectly but also elevates the emotional impact of key scenes. It effectively sets the mood, immersing viewers in the gritty world of gangsters and their treacherous endeavors.
Furthermore, the sound design deserves special recognition. The meticulous attention given to recreating the atmosphere of early 90s gangster movies is outstanding. Every gunshot, whisper, and footstep is carefully crafted to transport the audience into the heart of the narrative, making it feel as though they are witnessing a genuine crime drama unfold on the screen. The immersive sound design further contributes to the overall authenticity and impact of the series.
In summary, even after two years, 91 Days remains vividly etched in my memory due to its compelling storytelling, impressive animation that captures the essence of the 1900s, and the exceptional music and sound design that transport viewers into the world of gangsters and their turbulent lives. This series defies expectations and leaves a lasting impact, making it a standout gem among seasonal shows. If you seek a captivating and immersive experience, 91 Days is a must-watch that will undoubtedly leave an indelible mark on your own journey as a viewer.

Trigun: Stampede is a new take on the classic anime and manga series Trigun, created by Yasuhiro Nightow. Released 25 years after the original, it aims to attract new viewers while retaining the essence of the original story. The new series focuses on the depth of Vash, the main character, and his relationship with his twin brother Nai and their caretaker Rem Saverem. The conflict between the brothers is central to the story, and the battle against Plants and Independents has never been more intense.
Trigun: Stampede is a character-driven story that emphasizes the tormenting relationship between Vash, Nai, and Rem. It is a more rigorous
...
story than the previous adaptations, and it drives home the conflict between the brothers that intercedes for much of the story. However, the series diverges into its own set and story structure, creating a fresh storyline that is dependent on the audience's perspective. The production of Trigun: Stampede is impressive, with the primary use of 3DCG adding an extra layer of excitement to the series.
The new series was created by a team that aimed to start a new Trigun. They wanted to attract new viewers and not make them think that it is hard to get into the series because it's already an existing series. The team had the blessing of Nightow, who mentioned that the original anime adaptation was "really excellent" and that "anything beyond the original anime is more of a bonus time, so you could pretty much do whatever you want with it." Nightow was involved in the new project from the start, ensuring that it felt like a new Trigun while retaining the essence of the original.
Trigun: Stampede is a must-watch for fans of the original and newcomers to the series. The new series manages to capture the essence of the original while creating a fresh storyline that is sure to attract a new audience. The new production techniques, including the use of 3DCG, add an extra layer of excitement to the series, making it an excellent adaptation that can stand the test of time.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War movie continues the story of Kaguya and Shirogane's tumultuous relationship with an added layer of uncertainty. While some may argue that the new problem introduced in the movie was unnecessary, I believe it accurately reflects real-life situations where new challenges arise and require effort to overcome.
The movie does an excellent job of delving deeper into the characters' psyche, exploring their motivations and the masks they wear to impress others. The fact that Kaguya fell for Shirogane not just because of his wit and intelligence, but because he accepts her flaws, adds an extra layer of depth to their relationship.
The film also
...
showcases the stark differences between Kaguya and Shirogane's lives and how they want different things. Kaguya desires a normal life, but her family's expectations prevent her from achieving it, while Shirogane works hard to overcome his lack of intelligence to achieve his goals. Despite these differences, they still manage to fall for each other, proving that true love is accepting someone for who they are.
Overall, Kaguya-sama: Love is War movie offers a great continuation of the anime series, providing deeper insights into the characters and their relationship while still maintaining the same wit and humor that made the anime so enjoyable.
so I want to end this review with the narrators quote in the movie : To Attain True Love One Must Have A Sharp Mind

Dragon Raja is a standout donghua that deserves more recognition from anime fans. While many quality donghua titles have been overlooked, Dragon Raja stands out as a must-watch for any anime enthusiast. The show follows the journey of Lu Mingfei, a loose cannon who joins Cassell College, the supreme alliance for humans against powerful and immortal dragons who threaten their existence.
One of the strengths of Dragon Raja is the way it evolves the perspective through which the world is viewed. Initially, it presents a generic fantasy scenario with overpowered characters battling each other at a high pace. However, as the story develops, it becomes more
...
bizarre and thought-provoking, exploring interesting themes of loneliness and desperation.
The variety of characters in Dragon Raja is another aspect that sets it apart. The existence of factions dividing them creates an interesting dynamic, and more characters are introduced over time, adding further depth to the story. The action and art in Dragon Raja are top-notch, with stunning animation and sound effects that immerse viewers in the world of the show.
The music in Dragon Raja is a standout feature, with Hiroyuki Sawano delivering an incredible score. While the dialogue can feel far-fetched and artificial at times, the wholesome interactions between the main characters and their voice acting make up for it.
One character that stands out is Motong Chen, a hot red-headed character who is designed to perfection. With her sexy voice acting and older sister personality, she carries the show in many ways.

This show was amazing and it really brought me back to 2010 summer anime feels. I loved the colors, the music and the overall feel of the show. It was like being transported back in time. I would definitely recommend this show to anyone who wants to experience a great summer time rendering.
If you remember how animes in 2010s gave of a niche feeling like it's made for small community not like mainstream stuff? I don't know if I am being an idiot but it did give me a different feel back then and summer time rendering does just that for which already has a
...
special place in my heart.
So watch it if you want to get the same feeling when you watched "Higurashi" "Angle Beats" and stuff like that I don't really know what this feeling is but only 2010s Anime give off that feel.

I don't understand why many are saying it's not that good because it didn't had much plot in season 2, well it's a slice of life so they will focus on day to day life of our main crew.
I loved this show for mainly this reason, at it's core this is not about epic fights or saving the world but about Wang Ling trying to live with his emotions suppressed because the world will literally end of he doesn't control them.
Everybody is forgotten that it's a story about "daily life" and are asking for more plot. I keep seeing people say fillery and boring,
...
but as far as I can remember having a generic boring fillery episodes is what makes slice of life or did I get it wrong? Isn't watching a show chilled with less seriousnes is what makes a show good slice of life.
Story:
Just as I said earlier they are connecting small plot points from one event other but not taking it overboard just enough for the audience to say 'ah it makes sense'. It's just a fun ride nothing serious.
The story of season 2 is mainly revolving around demons from the demon world who are trying to take over the human world but there plans keep failing because they are trying to kill Sun Rong main Fml which of course Wang ling won't let happen again.
Art /Animation:
this the highlight of the series I see everyone saying the art is just ok or animation is just ok but I tell you it's not just ok it's amazing. The use of 3d and 2d done in this is way better than most anime that try emulate doing it but no everyone is just ignoring it and saying things like it's just ok, it's wierd or outright bad. That's not true at all of course it's not incredible like Ufotable, Mappa , Kyotoani but no way is it inferior.
Voice acting: This is where season 1 fall short but this it was improved dramatically but still no where near Japanese anime.
Music and Sound design:
Sound design for spells and Wang Ling's sword swing are really amazing and boss music for Wang Ling is one of the best things this show has.
Opening and Ending are bangers just as season 1.

Zankyou no Terror or Terror in Resonance is one of those shows where u get into expecting something but getting something totally unexpected. I love anime series which are grounded to reality , this show actually shows how a police case story should actually be..
Terror in Resonance has one of the best visuals i can ask for it is so detailed that i feel like i am watching a live-action show , the show has so many philosophical meaning in it and is one hell of ride. the music is composed by the same guy who did for cowboy bebop , well that's enough
...
to say how good it is. The Characters react exactly how a real person would , that's the most amazing part of the show well that is why i was watching the should..
