Summer 2020 First Impressions: Best ’til Last (?)

  Page jumps are geting harder to wrangle as the editor continues to evolve, so I'm skipping them and changing my posts to match. I've also started linking where you can see the anime yourself, although that may only apply to certain regions. The first post contained: Get Up! Get Live! (TV short) Misfit of...

10 Anime I’m Excited for in 2020

Essentially my take on this list. Meta note: This was written on the 16th of June 2020 as a way to build up content in advance (with some subsequent editing as changes arise), so with the changing situation, some of these season listings may already be out of date. They shouldn't be too much later...

Looking Forward (?) to Summer 2020

...oof. I seem to have missed a memo that one of my final new rays of hope for the summer 2020 season, Get Up! Get Live!, was a TV short. I did some digging around to see if that news was recent and I was only just playing catch-up, but nope - it's been out...

Sending in Spring 2020

Hey, people! Where'd you take winter 2020? In amongst all the Fate/ stuff, it feels like it's been nothing but Fate/ this entire season and the simulcasts were happening on the periphery...until Iruma-kun came to an end. The people who normally alert me to the end of the season started, for me, about 3 weeks...

Looking Back on Fall 2019

Shinchou Yuusha's delays mean that I had to wrap this up basically on the day the new season started happening. The new season began on a Saturday for me (the day for BnHA and Mairimashita! Iruma-kun), so that's why they're behind an episode more than I could have caught up on - that's why I've...

A Magical 2019 Pt. II: The Spellbook Awards (3rd Day of Anime 2019)

By popular demand...or maybe just Derek's...the Awards are back (and harder to nominate for than ever, considering the AniList end-of-season forum posts have essentially died off due to lack of people keeping them alive). There are less joke awards than 2017's, but regardless, have fun with them... ...oh, and if you didn't figure it out...

A Magical 2019 Pt. I (4th Day of Anime 2019)

This is the yearly rankings post. Just to make it faster for myself, I've left the month that I finished at the end of each entry of these non-simulcast commentary lists. Top (?) 10 Worst Dropped Anime According to My AniList Rating Due to the fact an anime needs a rating to be eligible in...

No Guns, No Life

No Guns Life turns heads...because its protagonist has a gun for a head. (I don't think I'll be sick of that joke for a good few weeks now, y'know?) Opening note: Thanks to Inskidee for making the title pun up. Anyways, to the more serious stuff. No Guns Life is underway as I type this and...despite...

Fall 2019 1st Episode Impressions: Getting Serious With It

 The last post has impressions for Ahiru no Sora, Shinchou Yuusha, Honzuki no Gekokujou and Mairimashita! Iruma-kun. Then there was Africa Salaryman, Actors, Tokunana and Abilities Average. This post is for Assassin's Pride, Stand My Heroes, No Guns Life and Stars Align (Stars Align is a last-minute addition from my anime club). After that, it's Kabukicho Sherlock, BnHA 4 and...

Hyping Up Fall 2019

Yikes, where did the summer season go...? I haven't really been keeping track of where the summer season has gone, since it was slow at the beginning and now it's at the pointy end for real life right now (and I keep misjudging what time I have left to do things since these days I...
