I enjoyed s1, I did not enjoy this season for the reason that follow:
There is no real storyline that means anything, just episodic adventures which have no meaning and end with a boss that is quickly and easily defeated as each character is overpowered.
Each new world is just passed by never explored or expanded, meaningless. Just used to fill a episode.
Fights have no impact and aren’t interesting as they are over quickly have no build up and nothing of risk is on the line.
The overpowerdness of characters becomes boring as they are never challenged and the quirkiness and uniqness of new skills has
...
lost its impact and are overdone.
All clan rivalries are squashed and they all become friends working together.
Half way through it becomes Pokémon as now all character battle with pets.
It just seems overall lazy with nothing of value entertainment wise to enjoy.
The last episode was the best out of a bad bunch and sets up what seems to be a slightly more interesting s3 with finally some sort of challenge to maple tree.

A straight follow on from s3. Overall the anime is good and a massive improvement from s1.
The last 2 episodes were very good, the quality of the fights and animation increased even down to how the camera followed the fights, everything was an improvement.
My only criticism of s3 is I feel there is way too much talking in between fights, way too much talking of their tactics and how they hope things will pan out, this definitely could be cut down to quicken the pace of things.
Overall. 7/10
I’d like to keep this as short as possible but it’s asking me to write more
...
so….. I feel osamu definitely as a character needs to be worked on, he’s boring and way over hyped/praised for his contribution in the show.

So world trigger s2! It took me 2 years to finish s1 as I got bored of it and left it on hold, twice.
S2 was a breath of fresh air to the anime, the slow pacing and poor animation was fixed and noticeable straight away.
Although the anime in all areas improved, I’m not sure how much credit/praise to assign to the fresh redo because at the same time it also enters into a better story line.
Some of the problems I have with world trigger are
1. Osamu, they push the narrative that he’s this intelligent Nobel character, he does slightly display these characteristics but by no
...
means has he ever came up with an idea that any general person wouldn’t also in his situation. It feels forced and undeserved.
2. The fights. I like the fights they are enjoyable but at the same time again I feel like there pushed as these amazing tactical super intelligent well thought out battle plans when in reality there pretty plain as day.
3. Season 1 is a bit of a drag for me I could never get past the 50 ep mark it too me 3 try’s to do it, I don’t know why it seems it struggles to move on when one event ends and another begins. However s2 does a good job of addressing this starting straight away with non stop action.
Overall the animes enjoyable and has improved it gets a 7.

So Haikyu! Let’s get to it….
I’ll start off by saying maybe my expectations were to high going into this, one of my favourite anime of all time is Kuroko no basket and seeing the high ratings of Haikyu I was hoping for the same greatness.
This review will be short and sweet.
I felt it took a lot of episodes to get going, the first 12 or so episodes were nothing special and nothing we haven’t seen before. Players have ambitions of winning, players have unique skills, players train hard, players lose, learn from it, and train hard again.
The 3rd years have only 1 year left
...
so they have to put it all on the line to win the final tournament. Pretty much same old same old.
Then when the actual matches that mattered came around the last 10 episodes or so, that’s when it picked up and that’s when I started enjoying the anime.
The animation was good throughout.
One difference between other sports anime I have seen and Haikyu is the character of Sugawara, his willingness to help the team at his own expense and being selfless when it comes to his teammates and yet still wanting to compete for his spot was a nice overlooked touch.
I’m looking forward to s2 as I know it will be better than s1.
I’d love to give it an 8, the 1st half of the anime drags the score down for me as it’s pretty much as generic as a a sports anime can get. If I could give it a 7.5 I would but i can’t do it gets a 7.

So the tower of god! I have an appreciation for anime that has come from other sources like webtoons and made it to the big time. Crunchy roll seemed to put a massive push behind this anime, i remember seeing constant adverts and trailers like it was going to be the next big thing, but this anime is far from that.
I enjoyed the first 6 episodes, there was a feeling of ooo I wonder what’s next, I wonder what the next challenge will be, I wonder how they will take on the other teams, and then boom it felt like the whole concept of the
...
show shifted and it turned into a poor man’s Chunin exams, only this time instead of trying to kill and compete against each other (which they were doing for the first 6 episode) they were all suddenly best friends. I mean the whole cast of characters suddenly, for no reason, other than we kinda like Bam, we’re willing to sacrifice the very reason they entered the tower in order to help him.
Bam is a useless character, and has done nothing (other than take a blast from a fodder character and take a bash to the head) in order to achieve the type of soul rescuing, pulling someone from the depths of darkness respect that I would require for these characters to give their dreams up for his. (His goal was pretty much achieved half way through anyway)
Looking back now, what has Bam done?
Test 1 - he was lucky enough to be given an op weapon that took favour to him. Which doesn’t get used by him again!
Test 2 - was saved by Kuhn while adding nothing to help.
Test 3 - forming a team of 3 which required no skill.
Test 4 - he was unaffected by the wave. Free pass (intriguing at the time but now it’s meh)
Test 5 - was given the answer then passed by "dumbness/instinct"
Test 6 - everything was planned by Kuhn in order for him to pass.
Test 7 - sat in a bubble and again added nothing.
Bonus test - added nothing, sat on the throne, had the W handed to him on a silver platter and sacrificed the W to protect Rachel.
I disliked the category of roles introduced and the free training that came with it, there was no need to add this, and I felt it took away from kuhns interesting character/abilities. I dislike the fact the examiners can fast track them to the top if they feel like making a dirty deal or just for some reason want to bend the rules in a characters favour.
There was 1 sort of ohh no way moment and that was when Rachel betrays Bam and pushes him, other than that there is no clear moment which stands out.
Overall i feel if this anime just stuck with the original concept of advancing each floor and learning and growing on their own along the way it would have been so much better.
It gets a 6 I’ll watch s2 because i feel it might be able to redeem itself slightly, but there would be no sleep lost if s2 was never released. Peace.

Right, so cautious hero! This is not an anime to be taken seriously, after watching so many longer anime that require attention to follow, this was an enjoyed break in between. I found myself with snacks binging the first 6 episodes, and stopped half way through to realise even though this is not the greatest anime in the world I’m actually enjoying it.
I enjoyed the quick pace of the story, the introduction of many different characters and the humour. I actually chuckled a few times.
I feel cautious hero could be better in many different areas especially the world building. Why are hero’s given game like
...
stats? Why do the citizens of the world have game like stats? Why are there demon lords in every world? Is there always a sword and armour in every world to take down the demon lord? If so how and why? Where are these demon Lords coming from? What’s the story behind the realm of gods trying to save these worlds?
I think that there are many questions that need to be answered and a lot of things that would be great if there was a little more explanation behind them. Maybe s2 will clear some of these up, and maybe I’m looking a little to deep into an anime which isn’t meant to be taken seriously and is just there for a bit of fun and enjoyment.
Also I wasn’t the biggest fan of the sexual humour or when the art style changed to express a comedic emotion.
Over all the anime doesn’t have anything in it that we haven’t seen before and there’s nothing in it that’s going to blow your mind, it’s a unique (concept wise) fun little watch that I enjoyed so it gets a 7, I will be watching s2! Peace

In my opinion the best DBZ film out of them all apart from the latest one which I am yet to watch.
Story 7/10 The story is slightly better than in some of the other movies as its not just another typical bad guy returning to destroy the world with this movie they have gotten at least a little bit more creative and came up with a new idea for a villain.
Art 8/10 The art work is amazing for the year it was released in, the characters were all well animated and the scenery was packed with colour and detail.
Sound 8/10 The music in this movie
...
was really good especially throughout the fight scenes it added epicness to the fights.
Characters 8/10 By far one of the best things in this movie with a new bad ass looking bad guy Jenemba, Goku and Vegetas fusion Gogeta, Picon and guests appearances from old villains such as Freeza himself.
Enjoyment 9/10 this movie is one of the finer movies of the DBZ collection it has a little bit of everything and the fight scenes were just the best with Goku and Vegeta facing an opponent with abilities they've never seen before.
Overall 8/10 This is a really good movie and also has a lot of humour in there as well from Mr Satan himself all the way through to the return of Hitler. With old bad guys appearing from the dead that are no longer a match for the Z fighters and an all new enemy that is the strongest they have ever faced, this is one enjoyable watch.

Probably my least favourite DBZ film but still saying that after watching 11 out of 14 Dragonball Z films in the past few days one thing is very clear, if you are looking for a enhancing deep story line to grab your attention don't bother, on the other hand if you a hardcore DBZ or shonen fan and you just want to sit back relax and watch a short and epic action take place this movie and all the other movies are probably for you.
Ill keep the rest of this review short and sweet:
1)simple story line evil bad guy returns fight commences bad guy
...
is defeated.
2)Art is pretty good for its time and if you are an old school fan you wont care anyway.
3)sound is always pretty good.
4) there are very limited characters in this movie but its still good and Mr Satan is pretty funny too.
5) last but not least if you are an old school fan or just looking for something simple to watch with explosions fighting and power this is the film for you.
