  • Oregairu 3 | Episode 9 and 10

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 9 and 10

    Episode 9 You know what I found very weird Yui’s mother looks like an older version of Asuna (from SAO). It may not look similar to you guys, but to me that’s immediately the first thing I noticed and it’ll probably stick with me forever. Anyway, this episode was one…

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 7 and 8

    Episode 7 Now this for sure is the comedic episode the break up the prom planning, and the dramatics between the ‘love triangle’ between Hikki x Yukino x Yui. This is made evident when Yui and Hikki go over to Haikin Sogo High school to pitch the idea of a…

  • Oregairu 3 | Episode 6

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 6

    Certainly, while I dislike that Yui had her own personal feelings crushed when she came to the realization that any hope of her getting to ‘be with’ Hikki came to an end when Hikki himself realized his own feelings. I certainly do enjoy that connection the two still share in…

  • Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha | First Impressions

    Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha | First Impressions

    So… What are my initial thoughts about the aime Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha? Good question. To me, it’s sort of like a mixed bag, it’s a bag of candy, which has sweet and sour gummies. Obviously, when I reach into the bag, I hope to pull out a sweet gummy…

    Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha | Episode 5 and 6

    Hi there! As you can probably tell I am starting to get back into the various anime I was watching before going on a little break. Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha being one of those anime of course! Today’s blog post will be a combination of both EP 5 and 6…

  • Devils Line | Worth Watching? HMMM.

    Devils Line | Worth Watching? HMMM.

    Now the show itself does take itself quite seriously. I say this because there’s hardly any jokes and most of that similar content relies on dark humor even when there’s room to throw in those moments. In essence, you should expect a mature anime that deals with interspecies romance. The…

    Golden Kamuy | Anime Universe

    The show takes place in the aftermath of a war, there’s still clear conflicts that are unsolved in their present world. The first episode indulges on how Sugimoto earned his nickname, Sugimoto the Immortal. His encounter with Asirpa, an Ainu girl who saves his life almost seems like fate. Despite…

  • Oregairu 3 | Episode 5

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 5

    It’s weird, these episodes seem to fly be real quick, not too sure how I feel about it to be honest. I think we’re bound to miss a few key aspects of the light novel that plays into the whole “Prom Arc” as I call it, given the overall length…

  • Oregairu 3 | Episode 4

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 4

    Binge watching is both a blessing and a curse; blessing because I can finish episodes in quick succession and I can write about them to all of you, but it’s also a curse because it’ll then become easier for me to experience a burn out which lasts a long time.…

  • Oregairu 3 | Episode 3

    Oregairu 3 | Episode 3

    After a very long break from watching currently airing anime, I decided it was time to get back into it. Also helped that CK3 (Crusader Kings 3) came out just yesterday and for some reason it gave me the urge to jump back into currently airing anime. No better way…

  • Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai | Worth Watching?

    Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai | Worth Watching?

    The story involves Mituyoshi Tada as he meets a foreigner named Teresa Wagner during her trip to Japan. As a rom-com, you should definitely expect love to develop between the pair, right? Well, that would be the case if Tada actually understands it. To be fair, love is a complicated subject…

  • Megalo Box | Anime Universe

    Megalo Box | Anime Universe

    The first two episodes immediately had me glued to my seat as we witness Junk Dog showing his fighting skills as a Megalo Boxer. It didn’t take long to realize that the show portrays him as an underdog. The experience that Joe gains is invaluable and also allows him to…

  • Konohana Kitan | Anime Universe

    Konohana Kitan | Anime Universe

    The initial first episodes portrays the innocent fox Yuzu as she arrives at Konohanaeti. The first impressions she brings in is questionable as Yuzu really demonstrates what it means to be a klutz. She is clumsy, inexperienced, and doesn’t know her place well. However, Yuzu is a very friendly girl…

  • Inuyashiki | Anime Universe

    Inuyashiki | Anime Universe

    After a certain mysterious incident from the first episode, we find out that Ichiro and Hiro develops mysterious powers that could change mankind forever. This show establishes the two characters from the first two episodes through their actions and personality. Ichiro is portrayed as a timid old man who has…

  • Koi to Uso | Worth Watching?

    Koi to Uso | Worth Watching?

    Honestly, I can’t really say this show does an adequate job at developing its story. At its core, it puts emphasis on the theme of love. The show invites questions that makes us wonder what love actually is. What is romance? How do couples build on a love relationship? Why…

  • Ballroom e Youkoso | Worth Watching?

    Ballroom e Youkoso | Worth Watching?

    Watching Ballroom e Youkoso (Welcome to the Ballroom) feels like taking a journey down memory lane. I’m talking about the type of memory lane where you were once a kid and wanted to prove everyone you had talent in something. Academics, sports, art, acting, singing. Just anything in general that make…

  • Fate/Apocrypha | Worth Watching?

    Fate/Apocrypha | Worth Watching?

    I don’t want to jump the boat here but it felt like Fate/Apocrypha had to do a lot to please the viewers. Setting up a show with a story premise that involves two sides clashing for the ultimate prize sounds like a sensational attraction. It could really draw viewers, whether…

  • Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e | Anime Universe

    Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e | Anime Universe

    The first episode introduces some of the main cast including main male protagonist Kiyotaka Ayankoji. It won’t take long to realize that he has a rather dry outlook on life and often try to avoid being noticed. My impression of Kiyotaka reminds me of the main male protagonist from Yahari…

  • Kakegurui | Worth Watching?

    Kakegurui | Worth Watching?

    The first episode definitely will get you into the mood as we meet Yumeko Jabami, the main protagonist and new transfer student. While Jabami may seem like an ordinary girl at first glance, it’s easy to notice how far she is from normal once she gets herself involved in gambling…

  • Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha | Episode 4

    Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha | Episode 4

    This anime can actually be extremely confusing just based on how many plots have been introduced by the fourth episode. Anos’ reincarnation and his quest to reconquer the world he created. Someone pretending to be him, Anos Voldigoad, but under a different name and identity basically erasing the true Demon…
