What can I say about this anime? It’s literally the definition of super epic—literally an indispensable thing in the life of anyone watching, a canonical event that every human should go through: watching Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

For those watching now, in my case I watched it in 2024, and I found that the aesthetic really reminded me of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, among other factors as well, but without that heavy vibe.

This anime also brings a super cool view of friendship, showing how willpower can make the impossible become possible. The importance, the value of friendships, and how they are everything in our lives, where true companions ... always take us as far as we can go, where each supports the other, bringing us the real meaning of human friendship, just as it should be.

The pain of losing someone who matters to us, and even when we lose them, it’s not the end, because they will always exist in our memories, in our stories, in our being.

We have an epic cast, where each character definitely has their charm in a way unlike anything else I’ve watched—characters that bring you emotion, and their way of being gives us a sense of immersion never seen before, adding more impact to their life lessons.

A soundtrack that fits perfectly with everything in this anime, giving that sense of epic chill, especially since the opening is one of the most iconic in history—not just because it’s from this anime, but because everything about this anime— not just the opening, not just the characters, not just the story, but everything, literally everything—has a unique personality that marks our experience of watching it, or even our lives.

Overall rating for this MUSTWATCH anime: 10/10- Masterpiece

I never understood why people liked Studio Ghibli movies so much, because they always seemed silly and shallow, lacking much development and endings that didn't have much impact. That said, this was the best Studio Ghibli film I've seen so far, because it definitely wasn't made for a fetus to consume, and at least it had the basics of development, etc. That being said, it was a good film.

points to consider

the story had good development,
the characters were also well done,
the sound effects are pleasant to listen to,
the soundtrack fits well, it reminds me a bit of the movie suzume,
the animation was great.
the ending was somewhat ... flat, I didn't think it had a great impact.

Why is Reality Like This?

Why do anime like Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu Season 2 leave us with such a confusing feeling about our own lives and the enviable reality of anime?

This season, like the previous one, gave us that touch of an ideal world to project ourselves into and get excited about our own reality, often harsh. But that's not where I want to go.

The second season of Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu was certainly built the right way. It didn't need more or less, just like the first season. Countless outbursts to see the romance of the two happening and progressing ... beyond what you expected. The colors of the anime immerse us in the environment they are in, the songs will always make you remember the vibe and the anime itself, always cheering you up. That said, the anime is certainly one of those that messes with the brain chemistry, so much so that you end up wanting more when it's over.

Certainly an impeccable anime, and one that will certainly leave good memories for us viewers. In anticipation and eagerness to want more (and we will, I hope), for sure, Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu is one of the best anime ever made. Congratulations to the entire production and direction.

See you next time, friends.

However, this anime was great; it's one of my favorites. But the ending left me with a lingering feeling. I can't quite explain it, but it's like looking at something that is complete, yet clearly missing a piece. I understand that it's the premise of the anime – everything has its value in late capitalism, and that sucks. Nevertheless, it remains one of the best I've ever seen. There's a sense that those we love will always be in our hearts, as demonstrated in the end. Despite my dissatisfaction with the ending, it certainly left behind good memories and moments (Lucy & David).

Mashle's second season is a blast from start to finish. It may not be a groundbreaking masterpiece, but it delivers on its promise of good action fun. The show's consistency and commitment to its unique blend of tones make it a joy to watch.

For both Mashle enthusiasts and newcomers, I recommend giving the first season a watch before diving into this one. The return of Mashle is met with a bang, offering an entertaining ride filled with laughter, action, and a touch of the peculiar.

In a nutshell, if you're seeking a lighthearted series with a solid story, a fantastic soundtrack, and characters that'll leave you ... in stitches, Mashle: Second Season is a must-watch.

Solo Leveling, the anime adaptation of the beloved manhwa, has stormed onto the anime scene with an electric mix of fantasy, action, and a narrative that treads the fine line between humanity and monstrosity. Inspired by Nietzsche's timeless wisdom, the anime weaves a tale that explores the depths of power, transformation, and the shadows that lurk within.

At its core, Solo Leveling is hailed as a masterpiece, a sentiment echoed by fervent fans and critics alike. The series introduces us to Sung Jin-Woo, the 'World's Weakest' hunter, who embarks on a journey that transcends his initial vulnerability. The anticipation surrounding its adaptation into anime is met ... with resounding success, capturing the essence of Sung's growth with each meticulously crafted episode.

The animation, as celebrated in multiple analyses, stands as a pinnacle of art, redefining the limits of the fantasy genre. Studio A-1 Pictures and its team receive well-deserved praise for breathing life into the source material. The beautiful animation, coupled with an incredible direction, promises an immersive experience that sets Solo Leveling apart.

The narrative, while containing elements that some might deem generic, transcends its initial premise. It introduces viewers to a world where dungeons unleash monsters upon Earth, creating a visceral struggle for survival. Sung Jin-Woo's journey is marked not only by physical prowess but also by an exploration of the human psyche, echoing Nietzsche's cautionary words about staring into the abyss.

Sawano's masterful use of soundtracks, highlighted in one of the analyses, becomes a character in itself, providing impact and emotion to each scene. The OSTs resonate with the narrative, contributing to the immersive quality that defines Solo Leveling.

The character development, particularly in Sung Jin-Woo, becomes a driving force behind the anime's allure. His growth from weakness to strength, as witnessed by fans in the manhwa, is brought to life with a style that keeps audiences eagerly anticipating each confrontation. The series, as noted, might lack complex character arcs, but the sheer fun it delivers, reminiscent of SAO's appeal, transforms it into an emotional and entertaining powerhouse.

Solo Leveling is not just an anime; it's an experience that transcends the confines of its genres. It understands the desires of its audience—entertainment, fun, and an escape into a world where the hero's journey unfolds with style and impact. As the anime progresses, it beckons viewers into a realm where every episode leaves them yearning for more, standing on the precipice of what could potentially be the best anime of 2024. In the crowded landscape of anime, Solo Leveling emerges as a beacon, inviting fans to venture into a world where monsters are not just external adversaries but the shadows within us all.

What is the meaning of running, where is the finish line, where is our peak? The anime leaves several lessons that we will surely take with us for life: the lesson of practicing sports for fun and, finally, to win; the lesson of learning to live with people, overcoming difficulties, and never being alone wherever you go, even when you are alone.

"Run with the Wind" is an anime where we follow the story of Kakeru and the track team overcoming their difficulties, learning to live together, and becoming companions in a way that the emotion will be etched into your soul until the last moment ... of your existence. It's surely the kind of anime that you'll watch ten years later and remember how good your life was and also that, in your own way, you have your story, just as the anime teaches. The anime features remarkable soundtracks (the ending 2 is spectacular, the one that brought me the most emotion in recent years), incredibly well-developed characters, bonds being forged that will never be broken, and tears flowing from your eyes naturally. A beautiful story to be taken for a lifetime as motivation and an example wherever you go, a perfect anime from start to finish, whether it's for you or anyone else

Run with the wind, Kakeru.

Suzume is an endearing and relatable character, and her character development is a testament to Shinkai's storytelling prowess.
