The King's Avatar

Sep 8, 2017

            I am currently reading the webnovel, and have read part of the manhua (it looks like a manga, though) adaptation as well.  When I found out The King’s Avatar was going to be animated, I was excited.  However, after I finished watching the animation, I was very disappointed.  The first part that disappointed me, was the execution or delivery of the humor.  The jokes were almost exactly like the webnovel, but they did not seem funny.  The manhua could execute the humor well, but not the animation.  It might...

Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor

Jul 27, 2017

I usually like these types of anime, and I wanted to like this one as well.  However, I was unable to like it and it is because of the characters.  First, there is the tsundere Sistine, who is quick to use violence on her own teacher.  I do not have problems with tsunderes, but when they do not hesitate to use violence on the mc, but unable to fight back against their enemies is annoying.  If Sistine is not using violence on mc, she is crying or freezing-up against the enemy.  Next comes Rumia, which most part of the show she spends as the damsel-in-distress.  Then again, she...

Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers

Jun 22, 2016

It started it off well, and it seemed like the set-up for the brave heroes to join together and fight off the Demon God.  A few of the Braves meet up early and set-off on a journey to find the other, and during the journey they fight a few enemies.  Then once they all meet up, there are a total of seven, but they were supposed to be only 6 Braves.  From that point, the whole story goes down hill in my opinion.  It became a whole new anime, because it was solely focused on who the fake was.  All of the Braves were suspicious, and it turned into a game of _Who Done It?_  There...

Ushio and Tora TV

Jun 22, 2016

It started off fairly well, it had an monster of the week, with an underlying plot in the background.  Little by little, though, the MC Ushio started getting on my nerves.  He was saved so many times, and he lost he resolves as many times.  He also loses his weapons a couple of times.  It is not a big deal if it happens once or twice, and the character grows, but not Ushio.  Ushio fights an opponent that he can beat, then he is saved by the best character of the show, Tora several times.  The series would have been better if Ushio was killed off, and Tora somehow took...

Bleach

Jun 10, 2016

This show reminded me of the TV series _Heroes_, it started off decent, but after Soul Society Arc it went downhill, and the last arc was like Season 4 of _Heroes_.  For some generalization of my taste: Gintama>One Piece>Hunter x Hunter>Hit-men Reborn>.................Bleach>Fairy Tail>Naruto.
For the story, there was not much of one.  Ichigo reluctantly became a Soul Reaper through some special circumstance, but did not have much of a goal.  Then it turned into "save the princes"' for several different arcs.  I am not sure what happened to the last arc... See full review

World Trigger

Jun 1, 2016

The series started off great, but after the Large-Scale Invasion Arc, it went downhill.  The world(s) building was great and had potential, but after the Invasion arc they focused on some pool and beach episodes, and Ranking Wars.  During the Ranking Wars, there was explanations on strategies from each team before, during, and after the matches with use a small amount of focus on the actual fights.  Also, filler or not, after the Invasion arc, the Border agents fought off against a horde of enemies, with some top level enemies mixed in.  Most of the high ranking agents did well against...

Fairy Tail

Mar 6, 2016

From MAL      When I began FT, I actually the show.  At that time, FT had its good and its bad points, but I overlooked most of the bad points until Key of the Starry Sky arc.  During the Starry Syy arc, I decided to take a break from FT and soldier through the arc later.  However, after continuing the series I realize how stupid FT is, and I ended up dropping the series midway through the arc with the reappearance from the Jingle Butt Gang.
   STORY:  I am not sure what FT plot is supposed to be, I lost track of the story a while back.  I was... See full review
