Dodge Battle High Still Not Rejected by Oni Press…yet.
So it’s now 3 weeks later and I still didn’t get a rejection email about my submission (now it’ll probably come tomorrow). They seem to have gone silent on the process or they don’t answer directly queries from what I’ve seen. Not sure how many are left to go through but it’s been a while.… Continue reading Dodge Battle High Still Not Rejected by Oni Press…yet.
Sabagebu!
Now you’re probably looking at the cover pic and thinking it’s just a generic moe show, well except for the gun. While they do look cute and all that, this show actually has blood and action like this: Momoka is a middle school girl (or is it high school?) who is dragged into joining one… Continue reading Sabagebu!
Welcome to the NHK (N.H.K. ni Yōkoso!)
Welcome to the NHK is a show I ignored before but decided I should give it a chance. Within the gaming community there is a lot of depression. I think maybe 50% or more, of the people I’ve come across in game development have dealt with some type of issue or still are. I also… Continue reading Welcome to the NHK (N.H.K. ni Yōkoso!)
I Couldn’t Become a Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job (Yuusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shuushoku wo Ketsui Shimashita)
Just like The Devil is a Part Timer, I saw the name and thought it might be interesting so I watched it. The ones that you go in with no knowledge can end up being very rewarding. I decided to watch it again recently so I could give it a proper writeup. Raul is a… Continue reading I Couldn’t Become a Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job (Yuusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shuushoku wo Ketsui Shimashita)
The Testament of Sister New Devil (Shinmai Maō no Tesutamento)
The Testament of Sister New Devil is from this past winter 2015 season, and is getting a second season in October. The show is like your typical ecchi, harem anime but they do try to push the limit a little. Basara is a seemingly ordinary high school student whose father suddenly remarries. He’s introduced to… Continue reading The Testament of Sister New Devil (Shinmai Maō no Tesutamento)
Alice in Borderland (Imawa no Kuni no Alice)
Alice in Borderland starts with a group of high school kids about to leave high school. Alice (yes it’s his name) is trying to avoid thinking about the future, so are his friends Karube and Chota. One night when they’re together they see a bright explosion in the sky and find themselves transported to a… Continue reading Alice in Borderland (Imawa no Kuni no Alice)
The Devil is a Part Timer! (Hataraku Maou-sama!)
I honestly picked this show up way back when, just because the name. Recently watched it again so I could give it an adequate review/preview without just going off memory, in case there’s something I leave out. The Devil King Sadao is on the precipice of taking over the world but a hero named Emilia… Continue reading The Devil is a Part Timer! (Hataraku Maou-sama!)
Rampo Kitan: Game of Laplace
This was the first show from the summer 2015 schedule that I said I was all in on because it was a mystery show. Mystery and thrillers will always draw me in but unfortunately the show has several flaws that came through very early on. The story starts out in a middle school where several… Continue reading Rampo Kitan: Game of Laplace
The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan
I was wondering what I could expect from this show. Nagato in The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya was not a character I could see a show built around. This is the same with many dandere and kuudere type personalities, they don’t really make good show leads unless the supporting character(s)… Continue reading The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan
