The Promised Neverland S2 First Impressions

This is a first impressions review of The Promised Neverland Season 2, episode one and two.

“This world is beautiful, yet cruel” 

For a second I actually had to pause the episode and check to see which show I was watching, haha. It reminded me of Mikasa’s (season one I believe) monologue about her life up until that point.

A Fresh Start – Sword Art Online Alicization Ep 1 Review

A promising fresh start for a series that has become synonymous with goofy tropes and character flaws.

I love VR. Or Cyberpunk. Post-Apocalyptic Shenanigans…

Anything to do with encapsulating oneself in a virtual world is something I’d like to see refined in my lifetime.

A New Breed of Tokyo Vampire – Devils Line Ep 1 Review

Devil’s line gives a strange first impression to the average anime viewer. Does the vampire anime series live up to the hype?

A lot happened as I watched this anime.

You know how sometimes you’ll watch an anime, and the beginning is kinda crap? Like you don’t understand what is going on, the pacing is weird and the animation seems wonky?

Would A Yokai Turn You Into A Tree? – Gegege no Kitarou First Impressions

This is a First Impressions review of the 2018 GeGeGe no Kitaro remake.

Gegege no Kitarou (ゲゲゲの鬼太郎 ), or Kitaro of the Graveyard is a 2018 anime based on the 1960s manga series created by Mizuki Shigeru. The opening song has a very old-timey feeling to it, reminding me a lot of an episode of Mushishi.

Why Recovery of an MMO Junkie Starts a Positive Discussion

Recovery of an MMO Junkie [ ネト充のススメ], or Netojuu no Susume is an anime I’d heard whispers of back when I was actively not watching anime.

For reference, I was working almost every day surrounded by Japanese culture, Japanese people and Japanese food – I felt like I was in an actual anime.

Are You Living a Rose Colored Life?

This is a short review of the anime series A Place Further than the Universe.

Oh, it really has been too long. Taking a break from anime for over a year makes you somewhat forget exactly why you watched in the first place. It all blends together, a huge amalgamation of jumbles in your mind.
