This review may contain spoilers.
Well, post-apocalyptic world is one of the topics I really enjoy reading and I find it super interesting in what the story of Leviathan is like, a world where everything was consumed by water and people's only chance to survive is on the surface in boats that serve as homes.
The interesting thing is that to survive the characters sometimes have to go to the part where civilization existed, I really enjoy this type of exploration in search of supplies and collect parts that can be used to build weapons or even improve the durability of boats.
The story presents us with three
...
characters in which apparently we will follow this tense and frightening journey, but in the first chapters the protagonist's Father leaves us and not to mention that he didn't even have much time to be developed, I know that in stories like that, someone will eventually die in the beginning and that's what happened. Not that it's bad, but I think a lot of people end up not liking seeing a character where we barely had time to empathize with him. But we know that in post-apocalyptic works we don't have time to create a bond with any character.
There is also the factor of the characters having to collect rainwater as they are completely surrounded by salt water or do the desalination process and as everyone knows.
And that was something I always wanted to see in a post-apocalyptic story and Leviathan provided me with this moment.
Thermal distillation, or evaporation, mimics the natural cycle of rain to promote desalination. By means of energy, which can be fossil or solar, sea water is heated and thus changes from a liquid to a gaseous state. I think it's so amazing to see this in games/books and movies and not to mention that the work really gives a feeling that we are the characters themselves.
The characters are one of the strongest points of the work, charismatic and interesting and I hope they continue to evolve with each passing chapter, Kana is already a character who will definitely be one of my favorites in the work.
Ah, the manhwa art is wonderful in many ways, each panel is very well detailed, the character design is also very well detailed and if you count in the "Sea Monsters" each one has a kind of look and one more bizarre than the another, experiencing a feeling of despair/distress and discomfort and not to mention that they have some reactions when they suffer some kind of eye damage.
The story has great potential to become one of my favorites and when it comes to the post-apocalyptic world, I get very excited to see where the story will go and I hope it keeps surprising me more and more.
If you like post-apocalyptic themed artworks I think maybe you should check out Leviathan.

One of the best adaptations that I've seen!
Finally arrived the time to comment on the anime and the experience that the adaptation of 86 gave me. When I finished reading volume 1 of the novel I was wondering if the "story" could go beyond that, in this case an anime adaptation ..
When they announced the anime I was very euphoric and extremely happy with the announcement, but after some doubts in my mind and if it would be something as incredible as Light Novel.
As everyone knows, adaptations on the same level or even better than the original material is a very rare case of whether
...
currently in the industry, I may be mistaken to say that 86 is the best adaptation of recent times. A lot of adaptations usually have between 11-13 episodes and some end up adapting an absurd amount of volumes in just a few episodes. As an example: Re:Zero that suffered some cuts in relation to the novel, but it is still a very good adaptation.
Nowadays people have come to be quite critical of Manga/Novel adaptations. Imagine you seeing your favorite work being adapted in a way that does not follow the same tracks as the original material this is sad to see. But everyone dumb knows that the changes always made will be in relation to a Novel/ Manga, the changes that can sometimes be ruined or pleasant.
But in the case of 86 it is something that deserves all the praise and I am not saying this just because I am a long-time fan of the work, I say this because we are blessed with a studio that took all possible care for the adaptation from 86 would become what we are seeing this season.
The scenarios presented in this first part were a little different from what I imagined when I read the novel, but I think they hit the nail on virtually everything. In the novel, the base of the Eighty-Six was something that looked like a place totally similar to a concentration camp, but here in the anime it was something totally different.
The CGI was one of my big concerns and not to mention that A-1 pictures had never done anything like that and it turned out they got the CGI and the action parts right. It's amazing how a soundtrack makes such a difference in an anime. I think the only composer who could work on the part of the soundtrack this guy was Sawano.
I confess that I was a little worried when they announced that A-1 Pictures would adapt 86 and I think everyone was left with the receipt that a novel would not be so well adapted, when it changed the first promotional image of the anime it was worrying and thankfully that they adjusted it like things like character designs.
When I read that the author of [86] supervised all the storyboards for each episode, I was even more relieved and that may have been one of the great factors of the anime being incredible.
I wonder if another studio had taken 86 to adapt and I wonder if it would be something at that same level, well .. although I had some doubts when it was announced that A1- Pictures would adapt, but I didn't think it would be something at that absurd level. I saw a lot of people complaining about the original partrs that were implemented in the anime and that they didn't have in the novel. Sometimes implementing new things in works can be good or bad, but as volume 1 of the novel leaves something to be desired, the anime corrected and not to mention that it was really good.
It's really amazing how the anime made me have a greater appreciation for the secondary characters and that's one of the things I don't like very much about the novel, we have Daya's death which in the novel is only mentioned in a few volumes farther ahead. It was fantastic to see that even the very important characters had a bit of prominence and that's something that added a lot to the plot.

Hwaja's story is very short and not to mention that even being short it manages to be very good and stories of this caliber deserved a little more recognition. Hwaja addresses a topic that we are used to seeing in the news, newspapers and the internet. Not only Hwaja but other children went through the same situation and some ended up being killed by the men known as "Grown up men". The characters are one of the strongest points of the work and even though they don’t have as much development they are great.
We have the main character called Ryu and his best friend Jay
...
who in a joke ended up meeting a girl of the same age who lived in an abandoned house known as "The Haunted House" and that's when the three began to see each other and were creating a friendship, but on one of these visits Ryu was almost surprised by one of the "Grown up men" who would kill him with a stone to the head. But that's when Jay ended up saving him.
And they ended up discovering the "secret" of the "Grown up Men". But after that we are surprised with a TimeSkip and we already see an older Ryu knowing that Jay had died from a car accident, but he found it strange and decided to live in the city to find out what really happened to his friend.
Actually Jay discovered the things that happened to Hwaja and what had happened to the other children and that's when he tried to end this cycle, setting the house on fire to try to make the souls of the children at last finally rest in peace. , unfortunately Jay was killed. But before he was killed, Jay still managed to send a message to Ryu after years containing the following phrase "Don't come back."
I was really worried about where things were going, the main character started to feel jealous of Hwaja and started acting weird almost becoming one of the "Grown up men". Seriously, I'm glad that didn't happen because it would be even more bizarre than the whole story already is.
Okay, but why didn't Hwaja run away?
Well, she herself says that she couldn't leave the house since she made a promise to the souls of all the other children who were killed and not to mention that she would feel guilty if she left the children in that house. There is even a scene where Ryu invites her to leave the house and she makes an expression of "sadness".
The scene of Ryu hugging Jay is simply beautiful and at the same time sad to see. But finally their souls were freed and now they can rest in peace.
There are few works that made me shed tears and I think that Hwaja was another one of those works that made them cry, the story is painful, but the ending is rewarding and beautiful.
It's amazing how stunning the art style of the work is and how well each panel is detailed.
Theend is so fucking emotional and beautiful!

After spending all day reading the manga of Tokyo Revengers and I reached the current chapters and I feel I should do a little review of everything that the manga has provided me.
Of the works that I am currently reading I think that Tokyo Revengers is one of the ones that most impressed me in terms of "history".
I think that after the first episode of the anime, a lot of people must have started reading the manga and that's what I did, I think I don't regret having spent the whole day reading the manga.
The proposal to use time travel as one of the elements
...
was what made me interested in the work, if you started reading the manga for the same reason I think you may end up regretting not having certain "answers".
Well, as we are talking about time travel it is quite obvious that some points are loose, time travel is very complex and if you try to compare it with another work with the same time it will only take you nowhere.
Ah, while I was reading I always read people's comments about what they thought of the main character and I saw that a lot of people didn't understand the "character".
When people think of Shounen, people already expect the protagonist to be overpower and beat in general, if you are going to wait for something like this it is better not to even start reading the manga and it is very obvious that the protagonist will not be to your liking in certain situations..
The plot of Tokyo Revengers is a double-edged sword and you can be in the middle between liking or disliking the plots presented. Although some little things bothered me, I think the whole plot of Tokyo Revengers is very well written.
The work has so many nuances, plots and foreshadows that you are incredulous at the amount of interesting things that the story will introduce you to.
Although the story pleased me, the main point of the work is undoubtedly the characters. I think TR is one of the most interesting works in terms of creating a wonderful development for each character.
The fights are interesting, the designs of the clothes and characters are very well detailed. The author has improved a lot in relation to the arts and not to mention that the expressions of the characters were sensational.
But not everything is just flowers.The story could be finished at its best and it would be something wonderful, but the author preferred to extend the story a little more and creating situations that were practically "resolved".
Ah, the manga apparently entered its "last" arc and I hope that the author does not destroy the work with a terrible ending.
It is very rare for this to happen, but I ended up shedding some tears in some parts and it is super rare to happen to me and even more with something related to "shounen".

The Synopsis of Unnamed is about a prince who was cursed and who went to the castle of the witch of Azure to know how to break this curse.
The manga is as good as Light Novel and since there is no novel here, the way is to put my thoughts here about what I thought of volume 1!
Let's say, this volume of Unnamed Memory is very similar to what I saw in the other novels what do you mean? So, I say in relation to how the author is very direct in the events, I never thought that after "my favorite novel" i would read
...
something so good at the beginning.
What is the strongest point of the work? The characters are one of the strongest points and in the blink of an eye you are already sympathetic to Tinasha and Oscar, I gave good laughs with the dialogues between them and not to mention that both are captivating characters.
Fantasy is a genre that is very difficult for me to be interested in, but Unnamed made me very pleased and not to mention that it made me very curious about what will come in the next volumes.
Any work that has Romance I objectively get even more interested and captivates me in reading, I wanted to comment more on the volume in general, but I don't want to give spoilers!

When talking about "Remake" nowadays the first thing that comes to mind is whether it will be faithful to the original material, although I did not watch the 1963 one, I think this Remake can be as good as the same. Tetsujin is undoubtedly one of the best wicks I have ever seen and not to mention that he is the father of wicks.
In addition to the references about the WWll / Cold War, I find it quite interesting that the fact that they explored the topic "artificial intelligence" made the story even more interesting.
The first part brings us very simple arcs, but the general
...
work is directed to larger arcs that are explored in much more detail in the second half. As stated earlier, the series is very similar to the film noir - with Shotaro playing the role of the private detective character. The second half of the anime is sensational, the plots are very well written and the way in which they are clarified is very good. Tetsujin's most important point is undoubtedly the cast, which is very good, the characters are charismatic and make the viewer more captivated to carefully follow every detail that the anime proposes. The soundtrack composed by Akira Senju is sensational!
Animation: Well, I'm not that demanding when it comes to animation, but I think the most important thing about how the story is executed and Tetsujin's is perfect. Director Yasuhiro Imagawa's work is impeccable, even without watching the old series it is clear to see how he manages to keep all the essence of the 1963 series.
I literally recommend and I think all mecha lovers should take a look at this masterpiece called Tetsujin 28!

The story talks about the despised and oppressed for life, a 34-year-old pedophile still found the resolve to try something heroic - only to end up in a tragic accident. But in a twist of fate, he awakens in another world as Rudeus Greyrat, starting life again as a baby born to two loving parents. Preserving his memories and knowledge of his previous life, Rudeus quickly adapts to his new environment. With the mind of a grown-up adult, he begins to exhibit a magical talent that exceeds all expectations, improving his skill with the help of a magician named Roxy Migurdia. Rudeus learns fencing from
...
his father, Paul, and meets Sylphiette, a girl his age who quickly becomes his best friend. When Rudeus' second chance at life begins, he tries to make the most of his new opportunity while conquering his traumatic past. And maybe, one day, he will find the one thing he couldn't find in his old world - love
Isekai nowadays has become a genre in which the majority follow the same line of "do not innovate in anything" and Mushoku is just another one of those who do not innovate in anything.
Well, As an entry in the modern isekai genre, Mushoku Tensei falls short in terms of storytelling, in particular pacing and world-building. It's hard to care about the rather shallow and bland characters. The characters are difficult to relate too and both their interactions and behaviours are at times hard to believe-- they also don't seem to matter to the on-rails story to begin with. It plays the stereotypes and tropes of the genre entirely straight but somehow manages to feel patchy and disjointed nevertheless. I get the feeling this is another example of a work that is best appreciated somewhere inbetween the novel and adaptations, but neither rendition will really stand on its own-- an unfortunate reality of so much isekai. Every plot device is a "deus ex machina", which is really quite unfortunate, and I'm guessing there will be tons of plot armour as the action picks up.
So, It is on the other hand quite a popular release, especially among younger readers. For readers who are looking for a no-frills, played-straight iseaki without any twists or complications, it might make for a good page-turner over the summer holidays-- however, for veterans of the genre there really are no redeeming qualities beyond the acceptable artwork. That being said, there are definitely much worse examples of terrible storytelling in isekai out there, but if you're expecting an interesting fantasy world or a new take on the isekai premise, this is definitely not it.
Animation: Mushoku's animation is very good and this is one of the strongest points of the work and the effects used are very well used, the ambience is super interesting. Besides that the char design is very good and faithful to the original material.
Characters: One of the most negative points of the anime is precisely the main character, a pedophile resurrecting in the body of a boy who still has the same characteristics of his inner self "makes the character even harder to like, a lot people have already told me that in the original material the character changes, but that does not change the fact that the work is just another generic Isekai with a different proposal. Even the female characters are not good, the work is poor! Ah, episode 8 is one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen and not to mention how disgusting it is. It is quite interesting to see the development of the main character, all the development in relation to magic and etc., but I still think that he is one of the major problems of the work itself.
If you like Isekais with a totally different footprint I recommend the anime, but now if you are a boring person like me, I sincerely recommend you to stay away from Mushoku.

This review will be updated as the episodes go on"
I still don't understand some people out there saying that Tomozaki is complete rubbish,
The anime may not please everyone, but it is far from it and not to mention that it does what it proposes.
I wasn't thinking of writing a review about the anime, but with those four episodes I think I can talk about what I think for now.
Well, the anime has a lot of female characters and this is kind of worrying, to be honest working with a large cast is kind of difficult for the characters to talk a lot, all that remains
...
to do is wait. what will happen in the next episodes. I particularly like the dialogues between the characters and not to mention the interaction they have.
Aoi is one of the strongest points of the work and seeing her putting the protagonist in embarrassing situations is fun.
The animation of the anime is very good and from what I saw in the illustrations of the original material the animation was really very good

First, this was my first experience with the Getter Robot series and I didn't read anything about the manga or the 1974 main series.
Getter Robot is one of the most popular fuses and my experience watching the anime was quite satisfactory, despite the series having only 13 episodes I think the ending was interesting.
The animation by Getter Robo reminds me a lot of the cartoon animation of The Big O, despite being inconsistent in some specific moments, the animation in the end managed to please my expectations.
The characters are the strongest point of the work and I really like how they have different personalities, that
...
is, they are the type of characters that many people end up liking right from the start, but there are others that don't really like these types of characters.
The soundtrack even though it is the same as Opening, they can make a good impression at the time of battles and even get nostalgic at times, but I think the anime could have a variation of Osts.
About the design of Getter Robo, well ... I thought it was really cool and it is completely different from the other strands that I'm used to seeing .. And to those who like strands with overpowers characters I think you could take a look at the anime, and to those who don’t like it, I recommend to go far.

Well, Oregairu is undoubtedly one of the best romantic comedies I've ever seen, the plot of the anime is a bit cliché, but the characters are the strongest point of the plot, Hachiman or Hikki is undoubtedly one of the best characters I have seen in any other anime .. The story and thoughts of the protagonist Hachiman are, for many people, as phrases of inspiration for the character's sarcasm . The way he portrays life makes most people feel a connection and empathy for him, getting more and more involved in the story he tells; his own, and how he reads between the lines.
...
His relationship with the other protagonists of the series made him mature and perceive the world in a different way, they learn from him and he learns from them. There is drama involved in this wonderful plot as well and in how each man deals with his problems according to his personality. Remembering that they are all different in relation to each other...
Yukino, even having a way of thinking even similar to Hikki's, she still bonds a lot and trying to overcome her sister, maintaining scattered and distant relationships. Yukino keeps a lot of what he feels hidden, for having a weak and submissive personality. And Iroha, even though she has a strong personality, she hides it all behind a fax for everyone to like her, leaving no space to get to know her real "me". Yui, being the character that makes the plot level comic, she has a happiness in being able to make new friends. In my opinion I think it would be interesting if the author made different endings, that is ... An end for each of the heroines, I think that not only me but many people think the same way. But, I would be happy anyway who would be the girl chosen by Hikki..
