Skip to Loafer is a wonderful little anime about friends. It follows a 15-year old girl called Mitsumi from a small town in Ishikawa and her relationships with the people around her, with a focus on her and her friend Sousuke. Because she comes from a village where everyone knows each other, she's a little anxious about her new high school-life in Tokyo.

The anime is a perfect mix between drama and slice-of-life. Mistumi's exploits bring a big charm to this anime, while her anxiety and Sousuke's youth provide more serious undertones to an otherwise monotonous story. While this anime is not light-hearted per se, ...

Banana Fish (Anime) add
Banana Fish is one of the greatest anime that I have ever watched.

Something about this anime is special to me. It shouldn't really interest me. Sure, I watched Cowboy Bebop years ago and enjoyed it, but I've never really been able to find myself getting so invested in the story of an action anime, hell, action in any form of media, as I got with Banana Fish. Watching it felt like a drug, I could not stop.

The anime itself seems like the embodiment of its main character: violent, beautiful, dramatic and yet so cold at times. It puts up a façade; from the outside in ...

Overtake! (Anime) add
A racing anime not entirely about racing

I remember being excited about this anime, forgetting about it, and watching it a year later. I've since rewatched it and I enjoyed it both times. From the outside in, it seems like a regular racing anime, but something is amiss: the main character is a photographer and knows nothing about racing. He befriends the members of a small team and slowly gets sucked into the world of racing as he tries to support the team.
There are two main story lines: the improving career of the promising driver Haruka Asahina and the overcoming of Kouya Madoka's trauma associated ...

I didn't want to rate this show an 8. I really didn't. But it's an absolute 8/10.

This anime was an amazing watch and definitely one of my favourites, it just really suffers from only having twelve episodes.The story is good, the execution is really fun, the characters are all unique and likeable, the animation is fine, but it all went by way too fast. The anime is based on a currently still ongoing novel series, so there's no all conclusive ending to the show, instead, they had to find a place to satisfyingly end after 12 episodes, which they absolutely succeeded in. Unfortunately, this still ...

Kill la Kill (Anime) add
Mixed Feelings
Fun to watch but leaves the viewer with a bitter taste in the mouth.

I liked watching Kill la Kill, I guess. I commend the themes and there was nearly nothing wrong with the story. The execution, however, could be better. The anime suffers from having way, way too much fan service. Every opportunity to show some skin was taken, and I hate Trigger for that. I wonder if the anime is even mainly about the story or just about the sex appeal of the girls.

In short: The anime would be way better without the male gaze of the animators.
