UniteUp! Episode 10 – 12 [FINAL]
m not gonna lie, the last three episodes were not very good— which was not a great way to end the show.

CHIMIMO – Episode 1
Not gonna light the world on fire, but it's a soothing watch.
Gleipnir – Episode 1
I have a certain soft spot for ridiculous gorefests with over-inflated estimations of their philosophies. Gleipnir, unfortunately, also comes right out of the gate smelling of the genre’s…
Helck – Episode 1
Helck starts strong with a premiere that holds the potential for more if the series leans into its most interesting aspects and really runs with the source material.

I don’t want to be so harsh on this series, but idol fans deserve a better story than this.
Episode 1, "Pilot"

An escapee from the edgelord days of 2005. The post Pet – Episode 1 appeared first on ANIME FEMINIST.
FreakAngels – Episode 1
A diverse but overstuffed cast and slightly stiff production combine to form a Crunchyroll Original that isn't terrible, but likely won't turn many heads either.
Listeners – Episode 1
Listeners is the best kind of pastiche. It takes a number of familiar elements--a young man stumbling on a mysterious young woman, a post-apocalyptic setting, and the sense…
number24 – Episode 1
