I know I am a little bit behind, but I wanted to talk about these episodes individually because there is so much to look at. And episode 5 is no different. This episode had a lot I enjoyed and a lot I didn’t so much. The episode first starts off with a fight scene that … Continue reading Kyokou Suiri Episode 5: At least they don’t have PTSD
How Aria’s Setting Elevates it to a Masterpiece
For my money, Aria is one of the best iyashikei slice of life out there. And what really elevates Aria from a run of the mill SOL show to a top tier one, is the setting. All three seasons of Aria are set in the future, and we watch the character’s lives in “Neo-Venezia”, a … Continue reading How Aria’s Setting Elevates it to a Masterpiece
What makes Magase Ai so Good
Last year, aired a show called Babylon, and for 8 episodes, it was an exciting, mystery-thriller that kept you on the edge of your chair each episode, with interesting story, likable characters, and a new twist every episode. And for the majority of these twists, the character that made it possible and kept the show … Continue reading What makes Magase Ai so Good

Babylon’s Disappointing Second Half Doesn’t Stick its Landing
Babylon was a thriller mystery show, and for 7 episodes, it was by far the most interesting and intense anime of its season, and to me, 2019. It kept me on edge every episode with a new twist. The simple yet effective and sleek art style, interesting characters, unique yet catchy soundtrack, and the rare … Continue reading Babylon’s Disappointing Second Half Doesn’t Stick its Landing
Kyokou Suiri Episode 4: “Talk about a lack of personality…”
In the first episode, what I thought Kyokou Suiri would be was a show which I greatly enjoyed every episode. The characters were unique and amiable while the atmosphere and events were still intense. I had no doubt in my mind that this show would be one that I would love. That doubt, however, slowly … Continue reading Kyokou Suiri Episode 4: “Talk about a lack of personality…”
What makes Arifureta the best show of 2019 (accidentally)
I love Arifureta. It’s dark sometimes, it’s cute sometimes, and it’s action-packed sometimes. But most importantly, it is absolutely hilarious. You may avoid this show immediately just the tags. These types of isekai shows have never really be well received. And many may have heard about how bad this show is. Even from the episode … Continue reading What makes Arifureta the best show of 2019 (accidentally)
Kyokou Suiri Episode 1~3: Kotoko is this season’s best character
Kyokou Suiri turned out very similar to what I had hoped for. From being super natural triller to a fun witty comedy, the show was quite a joy for the first three episodes. Right off the bat, I can say that my favorite thing about this show is Iwanaga Kotoko. First, her character design is … Continue reading Kyokou Suiri Episode 1~3: Kotoko is this season’s best character
ID:Invaded Episode 1 and 2 – the most interesting show of the season
ID: Invaded started off with one of the most interesting scenes I have seen in awhile. As a person who had absolutely zero information what the show was about, the opening sequence of the show left me completely unknowing of the situation. Regardless of this disadvantage, the show was immediately able to hook me with the visuals.
