I could never look at Mangetsu the same way again.

Granbelm Episode 9: Truth

Granbelm Episode 4: Teaming up

Granbelm Episode 7: Hot and Cold

SSSS.Dynazenon – Ep. 2
To be fair, I don’t see the giant robot paying minimum wage.
Horimiya – Ep. 2
A bit violent but I can’t say it’s undeserved.
SHY – Ep. 2
I doubt this is the last we’ve seen of Iko.
