God Eater was one of my most anticipated shows. The artstyle drew me in right away and the promo video was pretty damned good too. A few weeks ago, rumors started going around about the show only being 9 episodes. With all the delays and spacing out of the show, it’s kind of hard to… Continue reading God Eater (Goddo Ītā)

Kemeko Deluxe! (Kemeko Derakkusu!)
Kemeko Deluxe! is a show that I was 50/50 on because some of the main images are of a dumpy looking robot. Kind of reminded me of the bad cover art for Himouto! Umaru-chan, and we all know how bad that show is. I wasn’t going to watch Himouto at all until people started talking… Continue reading Kemeko Deluxe! (Kemeko Derakkusu!)

Paranoia Agent (Mousou Dairinin)

Now that’s not to say that all mystery is good but I will most likely check them out.
