Keijo!!!!!!!!

Oct 7, 2018

So Keijo!!!!!!!! was very interesting and fun to watch. I thought of it as so,ewhat of a Street Fighter anime just not as serious and the cast was much hotter hehe. Animation was nice and crisp battle scenes and standard scenes went smoothly and without issues and the special moves for everyone were nicely done as well. Story was a standard plot of the main characters, with a single pursuit of a single object. In this case to be the best at this sport. Nothing was taken away from this main objective and the characters as it was pretty straight forward and the actually objective to most of the characters... See full review

Jyu-Oh-Sei

Oct 3, 2018

So I really liked this one. It had a good story, even though the ending was ok and ended on a sad note for many characters. I loved the animation for this story, it was nice and crisp with really bold lines and much detail. Music was very likeable, opening and ending music was very well done. The opening theme had to have been done by a boy band, if not then it definately had that vibe. All characters had well done backgrounds even though some you didnt know about till later on or in case of one at the very end. I do like how this anime universe used Norse mythology for many of the character names, mostly... See full review

Dances with the Dragons

Sep 25, 2018

So this one was alright. It could of been so much more. Story - It was doing good with the story arc with Nidvork and her need for revenge, but after that it kinda went down hill. The rest of the episodes were oversaturated with conspiracies, politics, and it made my brain hurt when I was done watching. Don't get me wrong that stuff is good for a story, just not for the entire anime series that seems to introduce more then that from watching the first story arc. Animation - Everything was crisp and fluent and fun to watch. Good detail and what fight scenes were there went very well with no issue. Sound ... See full review

Welcome to the NHK!

Sep 21, 2018

Watching this one was interesting. It had a bunch of issues in it that people actually deal with and have a hard time dealing with along with having a good story plot to it on dealing with those issues. Sometimes it seems over the top and other times it makes you think about that episode and say "Oh so that's what that situation meant.". So plot wise it was good, ending seemed a bit off but overall it was good. Animation sequences were good, some episodes had more then one type of animation type in it, but not to many and usually stayed to just one type of animation style. Music on this one was...

Berserk (2017)

Sep 3, 2018

So like the season before this one had lots of action in it and lots more anger from Guts in it, but from the introduction of Farnese, Serpico and Schierke coming together and actually being in a group with Guts him seems to be more calm and focused......until the Berserker Armor. Story wise this pretty much has everyone getting used to each other and on going issues that Guts deals with and ends on a good note. Leaves it open very well for the next season. Animation is nice and crisp, dark and broody as usual when needed, but springs to life in the City of Humans, the Forest Mansion, or when Schierke... See full review

Calamity of a Zombie Girl

Sep 1, 2018

So this one was an interesting watch. Has your basic horror aspects in it, you know somebody steals something, unstoppable creature killing multiples and then destruction of the unstoppable creature. The twist is the unstoppable creature is not the bad guy. So it has some brief intros of the main characters backgrounds and the story plot is a generic, but working plot. Animation and sound are well done, nice bloody scenes and good fight scenes. =-D Begining and ending music as well as through out the story was well done and creepy. Overall this was a good one to watch.

Ushio and Tora TV (2016)

Aug 30, 2018

I really liked this series, one that pulled me in like Hunter X Hunter did. First season is kinda slow, but builds up the characters and then the second season thrusts you into the actual conflict at hand. Through the entire second season you meet new characters and either like or hate each one, but know that they are going to serve a bigger purpose for one side or the other. Story telling in this season is very action packed with the exception of one or two episodes. Animation and sound are great! Animation quality for this season is just as good, if not better, as the first season. Music through out... See full review

Samurai 7

Aug 26, 2018

This was an enjoyable story to watch unfold and develop. Plot and character development was done very well, each character had a good amount of background explained and each hero was well rounded. Wacthing the interaction between them all was well done. Animation was good as well even though there was a miss between some sword swings and where they actually connected, but other then that is was nice. Soundtrack was done well, enjoyable intro music and story music was great. Could'nt really get into the ending theme. Overall I would definitely watch this one, it was fun to get into.

Attack on Titan: Junior High

Aug 18, 2018

So this is my first parody/high school type anime to watch and I enjoyed it very much. Story wise it is the same as Season 1 of the main AoT with some twists. If you are paying attention though there are also a lot of hidden things that reflect the original AoT. Animation for this one was great! Enjoyed seeing everything nice and crisp and silly. "-) Music was fantastic! Loved how the main theme was almost directly the same as the original and was fun to listen to many times. There wasnt to much character development, which is ok since I knew a majority of the characters already, so no need to... See full review

So after finally finishing Season 2, with a long hiatus from Season 1 so there may be some characters that I may not of remembered, but there are some I know are new and should of had some more background exploration. Story wise it was ok. Coexsitence of the already established characters from S1 up to finale was great to watch, but then you put in a couple of new characters with out any or little background and you almost forget about them right away. Music was great, just couldnt get into the opening song. Ending song was ok as well, with the music during the episodes being fantastic. Animation was... See full review

Assassination Classroom

Aug 7, 2018

I had this one on my back log and decided to jump into it as a FYAB watch. Starting right off I was kind of iffy and didn’t know if I was going to like this one. After getting past the first episode I slowly started to like it more and more. Only issues I have with this first season is the opening song I could not get into at all, did not like the opening song until it was change in the second half of the season. Second, I didn’t really see the need to have Ritsu added to the list of classmates, even though she did help in some episodes I just didn’t feel the need for her... See full review

Deadman Wonderland

Jul 5, 2018

So I watched this one without reading any of the manga and with that said it was pretty good. Had a good normal revenge storyline going, good brief back stories of main characters and some of the main villians. Animation was on point, good shadowing and emotions (or lack of) in characters. So now knowing that stuff was in the manga and not in the the anime AND that there is not going to be a second season, I will have to read the manga now. All in all it was a good one to watch even not reading the manga. So if you don't care about that, then watch it. =-D

Warau Salesman NEW

Jun 29, 2018

This one was interesting, it's basically an anime about the human race and their vices and what happens when they give in to them.(My opinion of course.) The salesman Moguro is of course the catalyst for the end game of those vices, though extreme in some cases, he does give them a warning of course, then he becomes a real...well.... you know. Overall it's a good one to watch, good characters and good animation. Enjoy. =-)

Yamishibai: Japanese Ghost Stories

Jun 25, 2018

So a while back I was looking for some horror stuff and I came across this and got into it. I am loving these short stories! Doesnt take very much background info to know what's going on and that's good for this series. I love the change in animation to a 2D setting, I think it brings the horror aspect out even more. So in short (haha), if you like horror then give this series a whirl, it's some great stuff. The Next Floor and Video are my favorites out of Series One, hope Series Two gives some more great stuff!

Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor (2005)

Jun 17, 2018

If you like mutations, bio armor, and epic fights then this one is a good watch for all of that. Story starts out a little slow then picks up mid way and then drops ya with a there should be more coming, but since this was done in 2005 and I havent seen any ones after, they may not be making another any time soon. Animation wise on this one is pretty good, nice details in the mutations and what not, loving the expressions on everyone's face when it gets to the "What the?!?" part of the battles. =-) Character development was pretty good as well, got good backgrounds on the main players and the...

Fuuka

Jun 14, 2018

So another anime I wanted to try out since it was something different. Now for starters I am reading the manga and I am not looking forward to what comes next in the anime, but then again they have to come out with more episodes first. I like being able to hear the music they come up with and I love it! Great sounds and good animation to go with it. Story wise I didnt find any differences from manga to anime. So it's going good. I would recommend this one as a watch, but do'nt get fustrated because there should be more to come....hopefully.

Joker Game

Jun 12, 2018

I was taking a chance and wanting to try something different other then fantasy anime. Joker Game is a pretty good "real" anime. The situations and experiences are anything anyone can experience within that timeline and/or situation based of those particular skills shown in the series. There are a couple of issues I did have. Your given a brief introduction of everyone within D-Agency, but not really expanded on. After that it is an anime that has one character and thier missions, which I didnt mind that type of layout, just really wanted more background info. With that said the animation was...

This was the cutest anime I have watched so far!! Love the ball of fluff Poyo, wish I had one. Animaion was good, nice 2D type and clean. Not really a story here except 2 episodes near the end of the series, other then that it was just good antics and relations with the fluff ball. Each episode is not to long and is just a joy to watch. At some point I will watch this one again.

Digimon Adventure 02

Mar 11, 2018

I finally got to watch this one all the way through and I was happy with it. I never got to find out how Ken came over to good and who the creepy guy (Owikawa) was, but now I have. It was good to watch the originals interact with the new Digi group and in the second arc be a big part of it even with the new breed being the main focus. Like another review before me I am wondering how Digi Tri will be based off the original if at all, but either way look forward to watching it. Overall this was a wonderful nostolgia series to watch and I'm looking forward to the others I have missed.

This one had so much stuff going on it was fantastic and fustrating at the same time, but a good thing is the fantastic took over more times by the time it got to the end episode. Animation and sound were great! Every battle scene and every normal everyday scene was wonderful to watch. Great colors and detail going on it had nothing I was disappointed at. Music was nice to listen to, especially the end theme, I was really digging that tune. Characters had good growth, but I could of gone with some... See full review

The Flowers of Evil

Feb 7, 2018

So this was a dark and different one to watch. Was'nt hard to watch, I did get most of it cause I used to be that kid in school that thought I was just here and no other reason. Following the story through till the end it made wanting at least a little more. Animation was not great, but pretty good to watch. I personally like lots of detail, but I did like the fact that far away the people had no faces and as they got closer details would start to come into focus and then actually have a face. Opening themes were misleading to the story in general. You hear this happy opening theme and you know the story... See full review

Well this one was ok. I mean I dropped it down in stars from what it was just because with the exception of the last three, maybe four episodes had some sort of sex or sex based scene in it. I personally thought it was over kill on that. I dont think it was really needed, but again that's just my take. Was a pretty good story and it progressed and ended pretty good, weird, but good. Animation was top notch stuff, from the standard scenes to the fight scenes it was some good stuff! Sound was pretty awesome! The opening theme was so different and quite enjoyable as was the credits ending... See full review

Not going to reveal anything in this review about part three other then action, action, blood, and more blood.....oh and demons.....lots... Once again everything is top notch in this anime movie. It ends in a blast and now I can safely watch the rest of the series knowing what happened and the full history between the main characters. So again, looking for an anime movie that wont disappoint?

The rise and fall of...well.....everyone. Part two shows the peak of what everyone was hoping to achieve, what everyone has been searching for, and what hard decision two people make. After all that, all hell breaks loose. Thouroughly enjoyed part two as much as part one. Animation was top notch, storyline was extremly well done, and characters stayed true to how they started out as. If your wanting to watch a good anime and not to be disappointed then start with Part one and keep going!

Season two: Was more exciting then season one, and not a massive death scene like one.... season one was rough... Loved everything in this season, we've got the Gauna in front and something sneaking in the background that gets hinted here and there, but does'nt come out yet. Great continuation from season one. The only thing I'm not to keen on is the Tsumugi character, it's great when she's out blasting Guana and what not, but in the down time she's a tentacle.... thing... you'll see. Here's looking forward to a season three.

Cyborg 009 vs Devilman

Jan 29, 2018

I am a big fan of Devilman ever since watching the 1990 OVA and I'm watching the most recent Crybaby, which is soooo different. Cyborg 009 I never got to watch and I was was'nt a fan of the most recent one, Cyborg 009: Call of Justice, mainly for the type of animation it is. Anyway, this was a good combo of characters with a good storyline. The animation was top notch and character development within the story was great as well. Not going to list any spoilers, but this is a good anime to watch if your looking for a good combo anime. I look forward for another one, since they left it open for another one.

So I never got to watch the anime series back in '97, I just started with the one that aired in '16. What do I know....anyway. I am glad I started watching the Golden Age Arc before going on to Season 2 ('17) because it tells what happen before he became the disturbed awesome man clad in black we know now in the series. It introduces the Band of the Hawk, which includes Griffith and Caska who I had no idea who they were when watching the series. Love the animation, it's nice and fluid. Story is enjoyable and easy to understand and I look forward to watching the other two parts before I continue the series... See full review

When I first watched this I only got to see a few episodes on tv and then it got to where it was the same episodes and then I just stopped watching. I finally get to watch all episodes and I liked how it turned out. There were some situations that seemed silly, but that's ok I'm older now.

This thing was a fantastic beast to watch!! Animation was great! I have never watched a racing anime, movie or anything till now and this one is making me want to look for more. All the character were well done, you knew who they were and what they were about with out a lengthy backstory. The comedic parts that are put in here are hilarious, and through out the whole thing it was just weird to watch as well. I would recommend this to anyone to at least watch it once!
