Mixed Feelings
Maybe it's because I read the manga and I've known it since it was still only a one shot, but the movie to me failed to deliver the melancholic aspects and the genuine emotions in the story and its characters. It's always rare that the delivery of someone other than the creator would exceed that of the creator's. Still, Kyoto Animation did an outstanding job in the animation and direction as always, but the bubbly atmosphere of it wasn't quite fit for the story and made the delivery shallow and devoid of touchable emotions, especially the direction. However, I still loved it. It was a ...

This movie is rather a narrative movie than an interpretative one. It is a recitation of melancholy and a symbolization of human malice. What really makes this movie special is not its evidently disturbing scenes but rather its grotesque art that symbolizes the disturbing events. The characters were very repulsive and the main character, midori, seemed to never escape the cycle of hopeless events. Also, the lack of character development made the story boring and harder to sit down through the disturbing scenes. However, this lack of development could have been intentional, as it's always people who make it are the ones who get their ...

Oh boy! sangatsu is a really loved anime so I feel like this review might get some people's eyes rolling but here I go. This review is really subjective so forgive me, even I am mad at myself for feeling like this, I really feel like maybe I missed something at the end. Although I know nothing about shogi, the slice of life in this is both very heartfelt and heartwarming. The artistic depiction of human emotions is portrayed in every frame with such beauty that makes it hard for you not to want to observe and understand what the character on screen is feeling. ...

Ajin (Anime) add
I have to say that Ajin is one of the most underrated animes I have ever watched. Maybe the cause is the CGI animation that could drive people off at first but I'm so glad I gave it a chance. At first, it felt weird, but I got hooked from the very first episode, once you get hooked you get used to the animation and come to even love it. The animation is really well handled and it gives a sense of reality to the anime, especially the IBM, it's so beautifully made that I don't think any normal animation could have given it the ...

Preliminary (49/153 chp)
oh god this is my first time writing a review but oh boy this manga was hard to read so here we go. It was greatly disturbing and stressful to read. Though the psychology and the actions of the characters are somehow dull and expected, the art portrayal of every thought, every emotion of every character was beautifully delivered. I hated every single character in this manga yet I somehow continued reading it. The psychology is delivered by the art rather than dialogues which can make it sometimes hard to understand what the character is really thinking. After reading it, I think I have a ...
