If I can’t have more Natsume Yuujinchou, I can at least enjoy its more innocent, less melancholy cousin. Either far in the past or perhaps even in a far-distant future, or in some alternative universe altogether, humans have been hunted to the brink of seemingly to the brink of extinction. Now, all manner of spirits, […]

Anime Taste Testing: Kami no Tou
Color me confused. I’ll get to my main issue right off the bat – I have no clue what’s happening, why it’s happening, or why I should care…
Anime Taste Testing: Listeners
So Liverpool and Manchester finally united, and then the apocalypse happened. Sounds about right. I’ll get this out of the way right off the bat: I’m an unapologetic…
Anime Taste Testing: Gibiate
This one’s gonna be quick and dirty, because to be honest, I didn’t even make it through the whole first episode.
Anime Taste Testing: Pet
An adult anime for teenage edgelords. It seems that nearly every time I see a psychological genre anime marketed explicitly towards the seinen crowd, it feels exactly like…
Anime Taste Testing: Horimiya
Aside from the creepy teacher, this series is actually pretty okay.
Anime Taste Testing: Noblesse
I just realized I still don’t know if these guys are meant to be vampires. However, they do seem to drink plenty of tea – maybe there’s blood…

Anime Taste Testing: ID:Invaded
Finally, the detective anime we didn’t know we needed (but that we definitely deserved). You’d be forgiven for wanting to give up on the anime detective/mystery genre entirely…
Anime Taste Testing: Arte
I’d say I love period pieces, but that would be a lie. I love accurate period pieces. I wish to god this title had just been set in…

Fast and Furious: Okinawa Drift.
Anime Taste Testing: Dorohedoro
Strap yourself in, this is one wild trip. And a trip Dorehedoro most certainly is. Whether it’s one you can stomach or not largely depends on your tolerance…
Anime Taste Testing: Overtake!
Let’s all ganbaru together.
Anime Taste Testing: Kakushigoto
Yes, I genuinely like the pun. Given the synopsis, I was fully ready to experience something… well, pervy, for lack of a better term. What I wasn’t ready…
Anime Taste Testing: Fumetsu no Anata e
My final and favorite premiere of the season.
Anime Taste Testing: Baraou no Souretsu and Sasaki to Miyano
Neither are great, but at this point, I’m taking what I can get.
Anime Taste Testing: Marginal Service, Oshi no Ko
I have never been this conflicted about two anime premieres in a row.
Anime Taste Testing: SSSS.Dynazenon and Mashiro no Oto
One show is about transforming dinosaur-like robots, the other is about the art of the shamisen. The former is the subtle one.
Anime Taste Testing: Taisou Zamurai
Being a sports anime, a dad anime, and a surrealist comedy all in one is a tough sell, that’s for sure.
Anime Taste Testing: Back Arrow
So it’s mecha but with backwater villagers dressed as old-west cowboys and the more tech-advanced folk looking like something out of a Chinese-inspired historical-fantasy. Cool cool.
Anime Taste Testing: Chainsaw Man
Probably the perfect anime series for Tarantino fans.
Anime Taste Testing: Bibliophile Princess
The only way to explain this is if people literally went out of their way to create something generic.
Anime Taste Testing: Darwin’s Game
Too generic to stand out, too trashy even by trash standards to be funny. At first glance, this seemed to be one of those shows that are so…
Anime Taste Testing: Hortensia Saga
This would have felt lackluster and cliché had it been released 20 years ago – and what’s more, nothing would have changed between then and now aside from…
Anime Taste Testing: Kaizoku Oujo
Swash swash buckle buckle.
Anime Taste Testing: Akudama Drive
I don’t know what I just watched, but I know I want more of it.

Anime Taste Testing: Urusei Yatsura
Some anime do genuinely deserve a reboot. Others should probably never again see the light of day, no matter how historically important.

There always seems to be one show every season that I want to like more than I actually do. This time around, that’s Uramichi Oniisan.
