Tsurune Episode 8 Review: Onogi is still fired up and wanting to win. Minato is worried about firing in competition again and facing Shu. The others all have stresses of their own. Can this team come together under these conditions?
Review: I really loved this episode for so many reasons but I'm going to try to see if I can keep this post from getting out of control. However, other than being a fantastic continuation on Hina's story and closing the newcomers tournament story, what episode 31 of March Comes in Like a Lion does … Continue reading March Comes in Like a Lion Episode 31: Lessons Learned
Overview: Koshiyama is about as typical an anime dweeb as they come. A book nerd starting high school with few friends or social skills. Then he get dragged into a practice quiz and discovers Quiz Bowl. Review: There's really not a lot of story here. Geeky and shy kid joins new quiz circle at his … Continue reading Fastest Finger First Series Review: Do You Like Watching Characters Answer Questions?
Review: As expected, this anime has ended by wrapping up the meet though really the tension in the episode ended with the end of the match up between Koshiyama and Mikuriya (no spoiler on how that goes). Basically, there's a lot more story implied with where the two go from here after this meet but … Continue reading Fastest Finger First Episode 12: Define Fun
Review: There's not a lot to this episode beyond the obvious and yet when it ended I felt my body relax because I'd clearly been tensing up during most of the second half. It's kind of fun to be that caught up in a single character's emotions even if the end result is quite a … Continue reading Fastest Finger First Episode 11: Low Level Thrills Ahead
So as I said last week, this post topic was suggested to me by Kendra Ressler as one of my patrons and I'm going to thank her for the very awesome topic to write about. If you've been following season 2 of My Hero Academia, you already know it has been running a tournament between … Continue reading Tuesday’s Top 5: My Hero Academia Tournament Matches
Review: What was that? Oh, that was my heart skipping a beat and me forgetting that I can actually breathe. We're all good. Given this episode gave us a recap, reminding us how angry Bakugo is as a character all the time and a prep room confrontation between the two characters before we got to … Continue reading My Hero Academia Season 2 Episode 25
Review: I love that this show has absolutely zero sense of urgency or desire to actually deal with its main plot. Otherwise, I might actually start to feel concerned for some of the characters. Instead, our kidnap victim is now doing a Princess Leia impersonation and for some reason joining weird cult guys though we … Continue reading The Silver Guardian Episode 11
Review: This episode is a bit blur like given we get 5 separate match ups and we get a lot of time out of the stadium dealing with the fallout of Midoriya and Todoroki's fight from last week. I'm not upset about this as everything that is covered is kind of needed to get us … Continue reading My Hero Academia Episode 24
Review (again, spoilers this week if you didn't watch yet): I'm not certain which battle was more impressive during this episode. The physical battle between Midoriya and Todoroki was visually amazing and absolutely intense. We had ice being blasted into a million pieces and strong gusts of wind and that was even before Todoroki caved … Continue reading My Hero Academia Episode 23
