Mysterious Girlfriend X - what an odd show. A very strange series which clearly appeals to people with spit kinks. That's the main story - the main couple are bonded via drool.
Story 6/10 - Typical romance story for the most part to be honest, awkward, slow-burn couple with a huge twist - the pair share their drool, this show is full of rather "unique" scenes for lack of a better word in which the only things I have to say are - that was gross. That aside, it's got your typical romance drama along with it and several points in the relationship that seem a
...
tad bit rocky.
Characters 7/10 - Honestly the characters are pretty good, the main guy however is a bit of your average moron in love and doesn't seem to quite grasp what should clearly be seen as a ***DON'T DO*** in a relationship. Otherwise the main girl is fine (again, overlooking the drool fest) and the side characters are pretty decent.
OST 5/10 - To be honest there really isn't anything that jumped out at me in this soundtrack, the ending and opening were alright at best, but certainly not playlist worthy. The rest of the audio/bgm was fine and sets the mood it tries to create relatively well.
Final Thoughts - It's an okay romance to try out if you're either into being grossed out, or you're bored and merely felt like trying out a show. Again the spit fetish heavily downplays the variety of people to which one could recommend this too.

To start off, this review is completely unbiased. I've never played the VN and so my opinion is completely unrelated to it and I cannot complain/comment on the difference. I came here based solely off of a recommendation who gave it extremely high praise.
Story - 8/10 This anime is extremely disturbing. In fact the curve in disturbing is so goddamn steep I'm surprised it was even possible. This show starts off as a typical Harem, but it's clear that something is up. The story is split amongst all 13 episodes to focus on each girl, with the main boy - Yuji - helping them in
...
his "unique" way.
Characters - 7/10 If I were just going to go off of the MC I'd give him a 10 easily, he's hilarious at times, cool without being a crap person and unironically feels like a badass. The girls are all good characters, some fitting certain tropes quite well - tsundere, loli, etc.
Soundtrack - 10/10 OP goes hard, the soundtrack is great in my opinion.
Enjoyability - 5/10 this really depends on the person, did I enjoy it? I guess that's one way to put it. It's not necessarily "enjoyable", but I'd wager it'll have you gripped.
Final Thoughts + TW - This show... is very strange. It's absolutely disgusting - but it's supposed to be. If you come into this show you need to understand that it is outright horrific and sickening at points with themes of rape/ cannibalism. Does it make the show bad? No. Because a show that is meant to be sickening, and is sickening is doing its job.

The Ace Attorney manga. Right, this was a pain to find, however if you can I highly recommend that you do read it. Ace Attorney is a VN series following the defence attorney Phoenix Wright as he defends his clients in court, this manga is no exception. Just like the Ace Attorney VN, the manga series consists of several trials in which Wright defends his "unique" clients.
Plot - Multiple different trials/cases that are completely unique to the manga and haven't appeared in the games. Each "turnabout" took place over 2 chapters at most making them relatively short in comparison to the games. However, this is
...
not necessarily a bad thing, the trials are short, but still maintain the mystery and twists like the AA:PW VNs do, if you enjoyed the AA games then I highly recommend this.
Art - The art is good, nothing too flashy and it does its job.
Characters - The manga uses the typical PW:AA cast, (Phoenix/Maya/Edgeworth/Gumshoes/etc.) and has it's own manga exclusive characters from the trials. Each one is wacky and exaggerated much like the VN characters and the original cast stay true to their VN counterparts with none of them feeling out of character.
Pandering - This manga does a great job to pandering to AA fans, with tons of references to the games and even appearances from smaller characters like Wendy Oldbag or Eldoon. It keeps up the tradition of name puns for most (if not all) of the characters introduced and has a good roster of manga-only/VN characters.
Enjoyment - It's a relatively short manga series of 5 volumes/15 chapters and shouldn't take all that long to read, perfectly crafted for any AA fans, and might be a good gateway into the series if you are considering playing the VNs, it might benefit you to read the first trial to get a feel of the zaniness of the series.

TLDR AT END: Violet Evergarden is a "must-watch", a masterpiece of anime, it's high score says it all, right? After all, if this can have a score higher than an 8.5 it must be good! Well, this is a simple reminder that no, no that does not mean it's good. Or more accurately, it's a reminder that no, not every anime that is well-received is going to be something that you enjoy. Personally, this anime is very meh and I'll get into why and what you need to consider before watching this:
Episodic Characters - 2/10: This anime relies heavily on sympathy in a fairly
...
episodic manner, almost every episode they will introduce someone new whom Violet has to write a letter for, this person nine times out of ten will have some tragic backstory or "heart-warming" letter they want to send. HOWEVER, this creates a problem, for this show to work you have to sympathise with the characters. Why is this an issue? It's repetitive and stupid, many, many shows will spend seasons making someone likeable, redeemable, or whatever else they want. This shows falls flat creating one-dimensional sob stories that all in all are hard to love when you strip the character down and realise they have nothing going for them aside from this.
Violet Herself - 4/10: This is really hit or miss, give this show a go and see - if you like Violet you probably will like the show. I did not. Violet is a ex-child soldier whom is recovering from the war and becomes an "Auto Memory Doll" (someone who writes letters for those who request it). Her constant self-pitying and oxymoronic portrayal of being a braindead murderer incapable of thought (during the war/before the series) and her "character growth" into someone who feels and even goes so far as to refuse to kill is so sickly sweet it's almost infuriating. Her character is a whiny, one dimensional sob slut who relies on pity to be a interesting MC. (Don't get me started on the bullshit she pulls off in this series)
Animation/BGM - 10/10: Wow, if this was a review on best animation I daresay VE might've taken one of the top spots, it's music and animation is beautiful and is one of the saving graces of this show.
Final Thoughts/TLDR - 4/10: So to end off, should you watch VE. It all comes down to one question really, do you enjoy the sound of a show chock-full of sob stories, pity parties and incredible animation? If the answer is yes: then by all means, have fun! Otherwise, stay away, this show is not meant for those who love action/war/fight scenes (obviously), it lacks any good romance and true to the fact that it has only one listen genre, really does only have some light form of "drama" going for it. Again, let me make this clear, this show is not for me, I've explained why in the review so use that knowledge to base off if you think this anime will be good for you or if you'll enjoy it, have a wonderful day no matter what you choose.

Let me start off by saying, give this anime a chance. Please. I implore you to actually try this anime out, go for it with an open mind - that's the best way to enjoy anything. Same as all anime, three-episode rule here works very well, once you've watched three episodes you'll understand the gist of the plot and how the anime will play out so if you don't enjoy it at this point - drop it.
Story: 8/10. The story here is actually quite cool, the premise being the desire to meet God is fairly similar to that of Undead Unluck without the promised wish
...
and the fact that God isn't as evil. In this anime, there are people called "hand shakers" and they can enter a place called "Ziggurat" when they hold their designated "hand" partner, in the "Ziggurat" they have special powers that fit the person's personality.
Characters: 7/10: The main characters are a boy and a girl who are "Hand Shakers", the boy is forced into trying to secure a wish from God as if the girl were to spend to long without holding his hand, she'll die. The characters are fine, they do their job and to be honest there's not much to complain about or write about here.
Sound: 8/10: banger OP. Otherwise not much note-worthy things, pretty cool piano at times.
Animation: 6/10: here's where there are some clear issues... it's not that it's necessarily bad, it does it's job and it's definitely not unwatchable, however it's a very unique style that some people may not like having said this one should still give this a go and see if the animation grows on them.
Overall Enjoyment: 7/10: Banger opening, lovely piano, some light-hearted comedy and romance sprinkled in makes this a wonderful watch for when you just want to wind down. With action scenes as well there really isn't much wrong with this anime and it get's heavily hated on for not a lot of good reasons. Having said all this I will admit that it is flawed - what anime isn't? Seriously. Look at your favourite show and tell me you can't find a *single* thing wrong with it, whether that be an episode, a character, a scene, a design choice. So again to end off, try this anime out, it's not like you're losing anything by doing so and again, go in with an open mind, be open to the animation choice and accept that there are some flaws in the animation at times (specifically in the one particular fight).

Heck, let's review Inferno Cop in 2024 to show it's still relevant and even new anime watchers need to check this out! To start off, the best way to go into Inferno Cop is completely blind - just jump right in, hell if you don't enjoy it you've only wasted 3 minutes of your life. The show consists of 13 "episodes" that are each 2-3 minutes, provided you skip the ending (which adds 30 seconds maybe) so you could finish the whole series in less that an hour, there really is no reason to check out this work of art.
Story: ?/10. I'm going to be
...
honest, this is the most out of pocket and insane ONA I've watched so far. I don't have words to describe the story... and I'm not sure it's even possible to describe at all, what it boils down to is: Inferno Cop, badass dude who makes you laugh while some crazy crap goes on the in the background.
Sound: 10/10. The voice acting in Inferno Cop (especially by the Inferno Cop VA himself is incredible) the sounds, etc are fine, the main factor here being the VA that is actually amazing.
Animation: .../10. Okay, this is where the show may be a huge slap in the face and put you off - it's animated and looks like it was made using Scratch, possibly even Microsoft Paint. It's weird, it's crap, but it's bad in a way that it's hilarious and done so that it's aware of it's own flaws. Considering the fact that Inferno Cop had an extremely low budget it's not a surprise how it turned out and yet it's still great and a must watch.
Characters: 10/10. The Main Character is "INFERNO COP", nuff said.
Overall Enjoyment: 10/10. Inferno Cop is a must watch, what reason could you possibly have for not checking it out? After all it's made by Trigger themselves, the masterminds behind "Kill la Kill" - who wouldn't want to watch it? So go on! NOW! CHECK OUT INFERNO COP!!!!!!!!!!

This is an incredibly nice spin-off AU story from the "Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun" series. Instead of following Tomozaki, it follows Minami Nanami, a fan favourite character and has an ending made especially for fans of her. While it does it's own thing from the official light novel, it's a lot of fun and builds on Minami's character a lot more and even gives some fans the character ending they think she deserved. It's fairly short and won't take all that long to read, so it's a must-read for fans of the LN/Anime. The characters don't feel like they are going against themselves, as is the case
...
in some AU spin-offs and Tomozaki/Minami both stay true to their LN "canon" counterparts for the most part.
TLDR: It's a great AU story about Minami Nanami from "Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun", it's not too long and definitely worth a read for fans of the LN/Anime.

To start off, Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun is a light novel originally, yes this might not feel that complete to you because of this (although season two ends in a way that you could feel satisfied anyhow, without reading any). This is one of my favourite anime of all time and I highly recommend it to fans of the drama/romance or school anime genres.
Characters:
Tomozaki, he's essentially a bum who thinks life is crap. His logic goes that one's "character" is unchangeable and people will either be "top-tier" or (as he calls himself) "bottom-tier"! He meets a girl called Aoi Hinami who challenges his logic and decides she's
...
going to show him how he can become "top-tier". The show will revolve around his character development as he becomes a more likeable/healthy human. Rating: 10/10.
Hinami, she's one of the shows controversial points, one of the reasons people say this show isn't as good comes from the fact that people point out her "method" of helping Tomozaki is blatant puppeteering and controlling him... having said this, it's addressed later on and in the LN as Tomozaki decides he's going to also implement his own things so he can continue to feel like himself. In the anime however she's not that likeable and doesn't have the LN's later chapter saving grace so she may make the show less enjoyable. Rating: 6/10.
Their are many other side characters, whom are all quite loveable in their own way. So overall the characters are a 8/10 in my book.
Plot:
The plot is a nice, drama romance, slice-of-life vibes, relax-fest. There's nothing overly serious or concerning and their are parts that can get a few laughs out, it never feels like it's dragging on and it's really satisfying to watch progress. 9/10.
Music:
Nothing wrong with it. 8/10.
TLDR: Show is about MC who is relatively pathetic to begin with, he meets a girl who argues that he can in fact change and be "better". Plot is a lot of fun, if you like the aforementioned premise you will like the show. The characters are a lot of fun and Tomozaki's relationships are really fun and satisfying to watch grow.
