Bleach: Sennen Kessen-hen - Ketsubetsu-tan
I can hardly decide which of the two new seasons was better or worse. Like the first, this season got off to a pretty dynamic start and delivered more Bleach lore to fans of the series. Among other things, this season also included one of the most popular Zaraki fights from the manga, which was well represented. The real problem with this season is not whether it's good or bad, but how generic it is. Absolutely nothing happens in this season that hasn't already been done several times by other shounen, one cliché follows the other, offering no... See full review

Tokyo Revengers: Seiya Kessen-hen Despite a solid concept, the first season was already a tragedy, so I'm not surprised that the second season continues at a qualitatively mediocre level. The only exception is that I find this season more likable. It became more of a generic shounen, but at least it had some sort of goal, no matter how stupid it was. The highlight of this season was the protagonist because he really started to develop and not just talk about it all the time. That didn't make this season any better, but at least it made it a bit more bearable. The rest of the characters were still a... See full review

Tokyo Revengers I remember when the anime was released in 2021 and had gathered quite a lot of hype around it. It was compared to other similar works like "Erased" and seemed to be rather popular. Well at least for the first few months, somewhere in the middle of it, people suddenly stopped seeing any of the anime on YouTube or anywhere else, it was like it was gone and there was no trace of the fans. After I started watching this anime, I understood why that was the case. Despite all expectations, this anime/manga is blessed with a very interesting concept, especially for thriller fans. We have... See full review

Nah I'd Win Season 2 I haven't read the JJK manga and was just along for the ride as an anime-only spectator, so I wasn't really expecting this season to actually be interesting. The first season of JJK was basically average shounen with minimal digressions and improvements, it was fun to watch but nothing earth-shattering or noteworthy. Of course, I expected the second season to be roughly similar, especially after watching the mediocre movie. By the way, the movie should be watched after episode 5 ( following the past arc) as it takes place directly between episodes 5 and 6 as far as I remember. The... See full review

Jujutsu Kaisen Episode 0
The biggest problem with this "movie" is that it's not really a movie. It's just 4-5 episodes stuffed together with a bigger budget and released as a movie. However, the content is like regular JJK episodes, it's like suddenly releasing the middle part of the first season as a movie, who would actually care about that? It could have been handled much better as a kind of double ova, but at least they made some money out of it, is that all that matters? Otherwise, the movie was reasonably entertaining, it was fast-moving and introduced a new "important" main... See full review

Golden Kamui 4 Have you ever seen a pseudo Jack the Ripper fight an army officer while the two were shooting at each other with their own "cum"? No? Of course not, but now is your chance. When I started this season, I never expected to see a scene like this on my screen. But I was impressed by it, something like this should be seen more often. Aside from the masterful performance delivered by this bizarre fight, I must also continue to praise how well the series has developed. Even though this season had more adventure episodes than story episodes, they were made very interesting. It's worth... See full review

Golden Kamui - Season 3
It's really rare to watch a show that starts relatively poorly and disappointingly but manages to improve significantly from season to season. Usually, the opposite is the case, but apparently not here. After thinking about dropping Golden Kamui so many times in the first season, I'm really glad I stuck with it. This one is a real goldmine, not because it's just good, but because it's a charismatic beast. In Golden Kamui, you have everything your heart desires. A decent main plot, bizarre humor, interesting characters, good pacing, and enough male chests, what more could you... See full review

Digimon Adventure Either you loved Digimon, Pokemon, or both. For me, it was without a doubt Digimon and with this season my love for this Anime began. Each day before school, I watched the episodes and kept listening to the music over and over again. That was undoubtedly a beautiful childhood, unfortunately, childhood memories are always different.
That's why I sacrificed my childhood memories to watch that show again. This resulted in a very unpleasant disaster because as expected, it's far worse than you can imagine.
For kids it is still highly recommended, children are not interested in anything... See full review

Golden Kamuy 2nd Season I can assure you that this anime is not for everyone. Either the person will like it or not. That being said, I'm relatively sure that it should actually please fans of the series Gintama and JoJo, due to the similar use of humor. After a terrible start in the first season, the anime needed a longer period of time to become more convincing. Towards the end of the first season, it showed some strong points at last. The second season also starts with exactly these qualities, which makes it look much more attractive and can actually build up a certain kind of tension. Of course, this... See full review

Golden Kamui I've heard a lot about this anime on YouTube, especially that it's supposed to be relatively funny. And to my surprise it is, it has a similar and qualitative humor as Gintama. And it even has a rather interesting main plot, which is actually in the spotlight and not just secondary.
Unfortunately... these positive words only apply from season 2 onwards. The first season is so bad that I considered quitting the anime at episode 7. The pacing was disastrous, the animation mediocre, the dialogue dull, and no tension at all. There was a joke 2-3 times per episode, the leftover was even more... See full review

Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 2nd Season Part 2 I like Re Zero, it's an anime that I would love to see multiple seasons of. It's interesting and can be very compelling despite its flaws. HOWEVER, I don't think Re Zero is a good anime. The concept is interesting and has great potential, but the author is not able to use it efficiently. As a result, a lot of character development potential is wasted, in this part, for example, it would be Echidna. I still don't understand what her presence in the series is for and why she was degraded from an interesting character to a comedy character. Or why they... See full review

Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 2nd Season
After a mediocre but still entertaining first season, the anime managed to convince me reasonably positively with a decent sequel.
Of course, the Anime/Novel is not an award winner, but for an average series, it can be relatively proud of itself. The episodes still have very balanced pacing, the subject gets to the point quickly and there is hardly any tension lost.
Re Zero thrives on some subtle twists and revelations within the plot. The way from one main moment to another can seem a bit monotonous from time to time since you also know how... See full review

Re Zero
This anime is really a very controversial one. I watched it years ago and honestly, I found it quite disappointing and weak. Now after watching it a second time, I have to admit that my opinion has changed. Re Zero has massive problems, especially in the first 10 episodes. It doesn't seem convincing enough, everything feels forced and the protagonist is completely irrational. The cast appears uninteresting and off-putting. The story is extremely linear for the first 2 hours. Of course, as a viewer you can already lose all your interest here, that's how it was for me.
Despite the... See full review

Mob Psycho III I love this anime and would even be able to say that it could be one of my favorites. Mob Psycho combines most of the positive aspects of the series and delivers them to the viewer in a brilliantly humorous way. The charismatic balance between seriousness, comedy, and action hit the mark here. Through an exaggerated presentation and a relatively simple style, this series could be very convincing throughout the first two seasons. I was disappointed to learn that it would end with this season, after all, there aren't many series that can entertain you. However, it becomes problematic with the... See full review

Saikyou Onmyouji no Isekai Tenseiki
The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist in Another World
This anime is your typical Isekai with an overpowered protagonist that everyone treats like a saint because he is the only capable person in the whole universe.
It's just like I said, only with the slight difference that the anime has a decent plot and progression. Until the last episode, there were several events that you didn't see coming and that were unusual. Likewise, the protagonist was given some depth through his background. Positive words aside, the anime remains just plain dull average... See full review

The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest
This anime is one of the reasons why quality control is needed. Why are the voice actors and animators paid for something so inferior? Surely there are better uses for the money and surely better manga, manwha, or novels to adapt. I have to admit at least one thing, the basic idea with the seals and the banishment of "wordless magic" was interesting. The demons weakening and controlling the human world in this way is a nice touch. But why is everything else so disappointing? And I'm not talking about the bad animations or pacing, no that's the least... See full review

My Hero Academia Season 6
This anime is one of my sinful favorites that managed to capture my heart despite its mediocrity. I don't know why, but I love the drawing style, the setting, and the whole hero concept. Unfortunately, the anime is not particularly impressive unless you manage to find an interest in it. That's why I keep saying it. My Hero Academia isn't for everyone, as it simply can't convince in enough aspects. If you don't like the superhero and villain concept, you'll be bored to death here. In any case, almost everyone agrees that the 6th season, despite flaws, has undoubtedly been the... See full review

86 Part 2 Kill me, stone me, or whatever you want. But this season was by far worse than the first. The very first episode of 86 already made me feel like the anime was going to suck and that I was going to hate it. However, the first season managed to convince me. Through a relatively good atmosphere and the fact that the events had a difficult-to-assess sequence. Who dies, who survives, and what comes next? These questions made me not only develop an interest but also get to know the show more. And after 11 episodes, I had to say it was interesting and without a doubt an anime I could recommend. Well...

Shuumatsu no Valkyrie II This manga and anime will not please everyone. You need very low standards to be able to understand this show. Each season consists of 2-3 battles in which candidates of humanity compete against gods. In a battle that will decide the further existence of mankind. The good thing about the show is that the battles are hard to weigh who will win. The bad thing is that the series consists only of flashbacks and fights that have a very similar sequence. I like how "simple" this one is. No great plot, but simply the representation of how two unshakable will clash... See full review

Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!
At least 2 out of 3 children had a very lively childhood in which we constantly played superheroes or other nonsense. Didn't you also feel from time to time that if you found a perfectly shaped stick, it would make a good sword or weapon? This was the imaginative past possessed by most of us. This Anime is exactly what I'm getting at with this. Eminence in Shadow is simply cringing and edgy. If I were 14, I'd probably say this is the best anime I've ever seen. Now, however, it was just an amusing comedy isekai for me, which brought up a lot of nostalgic memories... See full review

Isekai Ojisan Do you like or dislike Isekai? Are you a fan of comedies? Do you want to laugh at nonsensical and stupid jokes? Are you partially familiar with Sega? Then this anime is exactly what you have been looking for.
This anime is immensely simple but manages to convince with its straightforward humor and insanely stupid scenes. Although I was skeptical at first, this anime proved me wrong. Of course, it should be said that this is entirely comedy, there is no development or story. Each episode consists of 2 different stories of Uncle, which he can project through his memory television. In this... See full review

Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld 2nd Season
Well, the first part of this war was already a disappointment, but to bring this to a new level is something you didn't see coming.
Not sure how many times I joked about what we watched and what happened this season. If anyone has experience with Kingdom Hearts Writing and the Youtube Channel "Just a Pancake", that person will know what I'm getting at. This season is a pure definition of "Random Bullshit Go" "That's not even my Final Final Form" and "Okay I believe you" - these 3 memes represent the... See full review

Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld
I knew this would happen, but I just didn't want to accept it. After the Alicization season finally delivered an acceptable level of quality, I was hoping the anime would continue to improve. But unfortunately, I wasn't aware that there would be 2 consecutive seasons that would present nothing but endless fights. I liked the fact that the war between the two worlds was depicted quite cruelly, however, all the hype from the first season of the arc has been ruined. Wasn't it said that the Dark Continent was incredibly powerful? Why does it present itself... See full review

Sword Art Online Alicization Compared to many other anime, this one is one of the most difficult to rate. I'm always sure that the author has absolutely no idea what he wants to do and just chews through all the ideas without context, as long as something comes out of it. And the Alicization season is no exception. However, I think this arc (including Underworld) is the best of all Sword Art Online, even though it has practically nothing to do with the original anime and is more a mixture of Soma (The Game) and Matrix. However, the author has finally managed to bring interesting ideas to the forefront and... See full review

Sword Art Online Season 2 For the first time, this season of Sword Art Online has made me watch at least the first arc with interest. The Phantom Bullet arc was far from perfect, but it had a captivating concept. If a more capable writer had taken this on, you could make an entire anime out of the "Death Gun" killer alone. Unfortunately, it's only been barely above average here. This is where Sword Art Online takes distance from its harem concept and presents the omnipotent Kirito-kun in a whole new light. This season is practically all about how 2 teenagers haunted by trauma, face their trauma... See full review

Toradora. It's probably the dullest, most clichéd, yet best romance anime you're likely to see. Why? Because the competition just isn't there. Before I paint the devil on the wall at this point, I need to make it clear. I liked Toradora as an anime, it entertained me, and I also liked the character relationships, the romances, and the sometimes amusing humor. As a whole, the anime is quite entertaining, as long as you're looking for a simple teen romance. And since the market only has either harems or some over-the-top cliché bombs with no content, Toradora offers a counterbalance worth... See full review

Sword Art Online


This anime is a really big topic of conversation, either accompanied by enthusiasm or immense dislike. Sword Art Online is an anime that suffers massively from its success and that's only because many people expect too much.
Sword Art Online is far from good, but what many misses is that just because something is overrated doesn't mean it's automatically bad.

I approached the anime with a relatively negative attitude after hearing for years how "Good" and how "Disastrous" it is. And honestly, I can't relate to any of them. Sword Art Online is simply... See full review

Nanatsu no Taizai: Funnu no Shinpan

And this is where the plane finally crashes. After hearing years ago that the third season was going to be a disaster, I at least hoped that the fourth season would fix it. I thought to myself, this must be an exception, time pressure? Stress? But no, here with the fourth season the low point in quality is set. It should be forbidden to even charge money for this because no quality standards are being met here.

Despite the massive disappointment, I got through the third season relatively well, at least there was still plenty of story, structure, and... See full review

Nanatsu no Taizai: Kamigami no Gekirin

For a long time, I was afraid of this, I knew what was coming and that very knowledge only made my burden more difficult. A bad anime can be improved by magnificent animation. Fast pacing can always balance the flow of scenes, dynamic animation in harmony with the music, help distract the viewer from flaws and entertain elsewhere. But when an average anime is given deadly pacing and disastrous animation, it's no longer fun. And at the same time, this season has been animated better than the final season. Therefore, for those who have already had traumatic... See full review

This is undoubtedly the BEST season of the entire series and yet it just barely reaches the average standard. Nanatsu no Taizai is not a bad anime/manga, it is simply so average that people either expect too much or are rejecting it from the start. Apart from the simplest shounen concepts and relatively decent background, this shounen offers nothing more.

One of the main reasons why this shounen didn't succeed was the lack of talent of the author to create actual situations and drama. Most of the scenes had actual potential, but it was just wasted. Fraudin could have been a very deep villain... See full review
