Rotoscope and You: Onimusha
Onimusha is something I wouldn’t ordinarily watch. I don’t like stories that are based on demons, or based on fighting demons with magic artifacts, because once you get…
Bullbuster Anime Series Review
If you're looking for a story that uses giant robots to do something different, something smart, maybe even something a little political, this is worth your while.
Tadaima, Okaeri Anime Series Review
I can't blame anyone who saw "omegaverse" and decided that the show was not for them, but part of the joy of reviewing media is the discovery of…
Sherlock Hound Anime Series Review
Whether or not the many adventures Sherlock Hound goes on in this series are new takes on old classics or completely new adventures, they're wacky and enjoyable if…
Sweet Reincarnation Anime Series Review
This show is an uncomfortable combination of engaging and utterly dull.
Vampire Dormitory Anime Series Review
Vampire Dormitory is a mess of popular shōjo tropes put together in a way that defies all good storytelling sense. It's also hilarious.
Macross Frontier Anime Series Review
Macross Frontier is a hell of a good time and a reminder of why anime is such a fantastic storytelling medium in the first place. What other media…
Marginal Prince Anime Series Review
It's far from groundbreaking, and every episode is filled with so much cheese that you risk getting indigestion, but I think if you take your time digesting it…
Pokémon Concierge Anime Series Review
This is a beautifully rendered, laid-back look into another unique aspect of the Pokémon world. I'm not sure if we'll get a continuation at the time of this…
Astro Note Anime Series Review
Astro Note is yet another argument for bringing back longer anime seasons, instead of twelve episodes being the norm.
Akuma Kun Anime Series Review
Rather than examining how the outside world impacts people, Akuma Kun explores the darkness of the human psyche to startling effect.
Ayakashi Triangle Anime Series Review
This boundary-pushing ecchi series has a surprising amount of emotional intelligence behind it.
Delico's Nursery Anime Series Review
If other unconventional combinations like chocolate covered potato chips and dungeon crawler rhythm games can find an audience, then why not a vampire parenthood anime?
Stardust Telepath Anime Series Review
Stardust Telepath is the embodiment of a gorgeous-looking, feel-good anime.
Dungeon People Anime Series Review
Dungeon People is a cute, cozy mash-up of the fantasy and workplace comedy genres that mostly succeeds at what it sets out to do.
Macross Zero Anime Series Review
Zero relies heavily on CGI, not just for its mech battles, but also for some backgrounds and scene transitions. Sometimes this works, and sometimes it looks horribly dated.
Gamera -Rebirth- Anime Series Review
It's a shame that the ugliness of Gamera -Rebirth-'s visuals will likely turn away a good many potential fans because underneath all of that jank is a solid…
Synduality: Noir Anime Series Review
If a stealth ensemble comedy that occasionally turns into mech action is your bag, Noir is a great time.
Terminator Zero Anime Series Streaming Review
Terminator Zero rams a nuclear rocket up Skynet's shiny metal ass, explosively reinvigorating the franchise's flailing, half-dead cybernetic corpse.
Murai in Love Anime Series Review
Murai in Love is a very strange show. Its premise is strange, its characters are strange, and its animation is strange. So strange that it practically begs to…
The Grimm Variations Anime Series Review
The Grimm Variations is one of those shows that tries. It almost tries too hard, and the result is that some of the tales are beyond recognition, while…
Ishura Season 1 Anime Series Review
While Ishura seems to take itself incredibly seriously with such silly names, it's best enjoyed as a supremely daft, flashy action show.
Tonbo! Season 2 Anime Series Review
One of thebest about sports anime is the deep insight into the passion of people who play. That passion runs very deep in Tonbo! Season 2.
Good Night World Anime Series Review
Initially, Good Night World seems like another VRMMORPG anime with little originality. Until episode six, when specific plot points, throwaway lines, and unusual concepts culminate in a stunning…
Classroom For Heroes Anime Series Review
What should be a raucous action-comedy can quickly become an obnoxious headache that constantly smirks at its reliance on stock tropes
BLUELOCK BD+DVD Anime Series Review
BLUELOCK exemplifies why soccer garners such an intense fandom worldwide.
Tonbo! Season 1 Anime Series Review
While Tonbo! isn’t an outright terrible show, it fails at making golf feel exciting and giving the audience much outside of that, both of which make for one…
Girls Band Cry Anime Series Review
Girls Band Cry is an emotionally exhilarating show with a fantastic cast, uniquely strong animation, and fist-pumping songs. Missing out on it means missing out on one of…

The New Gate Anime Series Review
I love the concept of The New Gate. I also quite enjoy the characters and the story. What I don't enjoy, however, is this particular adaptation—especially when it…
Red Cat Ramen Anime Series Review
If there's chicken soup for sick days, Ramen Akaneko is the anime version of that.
Kinokoinu - Mushroom Pup Anime Series Review
This isn’t a laugh-a-minute comedy, despite the prominence of its weird mushroom-blob animal-thing. Instead, it starts as an almost uncomfortably frank exploration of grief and loss.
Shaman King Flowers Anime Series Review
Ultimately, my biggest problem with Shaman King Flowers is that it mostly just feels like a set-up to a much larger story that has yet to actually happen.
Tokyo Ghoul - Complete Series - 10th Anniversary Box Set Anime Series Review
Like Kaneki, the Tokyo Ghoul anime is a messy hybrid, with one-half of its adaptation feeling like the product of unfulfilled ambition, while the other feels hollow.
BanG Dream! It's MyGo!!!!! Anime Series Review
As a fresh start spin-off and ongoing multimedia tie-in, the MyGO crew has accomplished something remarkable here, crafting an anime that fulfills those obligations while still standing, screaming,…
Baki Hanma Season 2 Anime Series Review
The final, multi-episode spanning fight between Baki and Yujiro also lived up to the hype and is one of the best in the series.
Megaton Musashi Season 1 Anime Series Review
Megaton Musashi is a curiosity by this point in its story, and a tenuous beginning for a series isn't a return to form or revitalization for the mecha…
High Card Season 2 Anime Series Review
High Card is a show that seems to live by the rule of cool, but the problem is that the lore of High Card isn't always that interesting…
ATRI: My Dear Moments Anime Series Review
Because ATRI can't decide what sort of story it wants to be, it fails to excel at anything it attempts, ultimately becoming a lukewarm mishmash of genres.
Edens Zero Season 2 Anime Series Review
Edens Zero finds its footing in its second season, turning toward a darker world than previously expected.
MF Ghost Season 2 Anime Series Review
While it would’ve been nice to see this series pick up some much-needed speed, all it did was put the brakes on.
Demon Lord, Retry! R Anime Series Review
This is a bad sequel in almost every way. Barely a thing has improved over last season, and many of its flaws have been carried over to here.
MF Ghost Season 1 Anime Series Review
MF Ghost is the Initial D you have at home: it may also be a racing anime set to a Eurobeat soundtrack, but it lacks the over-the-top fun…
Tokyo Revengers: Tenjiku Arc Anime Series Review
Despite its dumb characters and sloppy writing, Takemichi and his friends have a lot of heart and are easy to root for.
KamiErabi GOD.app Season 2 Anime Series Review
This feels like a show that wants so badly to be deep.
Days With My Stepsister Anime Series Review
Despite its run-of-the-mill storyline, there is a surprisingly cinematic style to it that makes it stand out among other romance stories of its ilk.
Rising Impact Season 1 Anime Series Review
I walked away from the first half of this series feeling reasonably entertained despite a rough start; it eventually managed to veer into something fun, if a bit…
