Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor

Sep 20, 2017

First of all, I'd like to preface this review by saying that the first arc of this show was good. I'd even recommend it. Seriously, watch it. It has good pacing, clever humor, and characters that don't suck. Having the big bad be a cult, when done incorrectly, can be cheesy (this one was a little bit), but the show still had viewable content. The humor stays light throughout, and even if some jokes they use are a tad tired, they work. There are a few serious scenes, but they have jokes dispersed within, so as not to entirely change the tone of the show. The second arc is where things begin to get dicey, as... See full review

Magi: The Kingdom of Magic

Jan 11, 2017

First of all, I would like to note that this is the second season and if you haven't seen the first one you really should. I really like this show. I loved Magi and was very excited about the second season, but I will say that I didn't enjoy this one as much for one very important reason: they didn't show enough Alibaba. They took the time to show everything happening on Aladdin's end, all the secrets he uncovers and all the training he does, and that's all fine and dandy. My problem was that they flashed over to Alibaba and gave two episodes showing an arc that (in my opinion) was wayyyyy more interesting... See full review

Beyond the Boundary

Jan 11, 2017

I was actually surprised to see negative commentary on this anime, and it made me sad to see that so many people didn't like it. For starters, this show isn't really an action show, per se. It's about characters not fights, which was a huge complaint from most negative reviews. The animation was excellent, good music, the characters weren't masterpieces, but they were good. I personally like the characters and the way they fit into the story. The romance aspect was impeccably done, in my opinion, and dialogue is (for the most part) smooth and real. A good watch.

Recorder and Randsell

Jan 11, 2017

Recorder and Ransell, as you probably know by the synopsis, is a show about a guy that looks way older than he is and a girl that looks way younger than she is. Let me start off by saying that this show is adorable (not to mention a lot of fun). Lots of situational comedy and trips to the police station. If you like the first season and are tempted to watch the other seasons there are some things you'll need to know. First off, a different company takes over, so the animation gets really bad in the second season, with minor improvements in the third season. There's not much development, since there's no...
