This is a show that I expected to be garbage. The way it was described on some sites made it seem like a show that was just made to fill a spot in the schedule. This show actually surprised me and was very well done. Shinichi is an otaku who ends up being hired as… Continue reading Outbreak Company (Autobureiku Kanpanī)

Holy Knight (Hōrī Naito)
Holy Knight is another OVA special that I’d like to see get a full adaptation. It’s only 2 episodes and it barely begins to tell the story of Holy Knight. This story centers around a boy named Mizumura who goes to a missionary school in Tokyo. He’s accompanied by a childhood friend who is in… Continue reading Holy Knight (Hōrī Naito)
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (Danjon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darō ka)
I still don’t know if it’s wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon but at least I got to enjoy trying to find out. When I first saw the name like a year before the show came out, I was already interested in knowing more. I could have went and got the manga but… Continue reading Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (Danjon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darō ka)
Baccano!
I’m a history buff for those who don’t know, and the Prohibition era and Great Depression are two of my favorite periods in time. Smuggling, alcohol, speakeasys, gangsters…all of it. That’s why Baccano! has been on my list for a while. Just took me a while to get around to it. The show starts off… Continue reading Baccano!
The Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai)
The Seven Deadly Sins is another in a long line of recent fantasy based animes. Since I’ve been watching Is It Wrong to Pickup Girls in the Dungeon?, I decided to check out a few of the others. Log Horizon is one on my list but I’ve been looking for the shorter shows like this.… Continue reading The Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai)
When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace (Inō-Batoru wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de)
I kept waiting for those supernatural battles and well…they never came. Somehow a bunch of students have gained superpowers (this was not explained). Jurai and the rest of the literary club, plus 2 others come into superpowers and they are just learning about them and learning how to use them. The show circles around them… Continue reading When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace (Inō-Batoru wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de)
World War Blue (Aoi Sekai no Chūshin de)
World War Blue is a look at the 90s console war between Nintendo and Sega. Alas poor Sega, we knew ye well. I guess you can call it a short 3 episode look at what the wars would be like if it was personified? Oh just work with me on this one. Can’t even come… Continue reading World War Blue (Aoi Sekai no Chūshin de)
Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East (Hakkenden: Touhou Hakken Ibun)
Hakkenden is a show I picked on Crunchyroll because they made it sound like there would be action and asses getting kicked or a review somewhere did. Either way, someone from somewhere made me think good things. How did I feel about the show? Well, keep reading. The 1st season is more about introductions than… Continue reading Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East (Hakkenden: Touhou Hakken Ibun)
World Conquest Zvezda Plot (Sekai Seifuku: Bōryaku no Zuvizudā)
World Conquest Zvezda Plot sounds like a cool name doesn’t it? Like it might be something worth checking out. I did just that, without pics, reviews or anything and it was…interesting. Asuta, a middle school aged boy who ran away from home is out on the street during a time of martial law. He bumps… Continue reading World Conquest Zvezda Plot (Sekai Seifuku: Bōryaku no Zuvizudā)
Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer (DT Ikushion Sāga Dī Tī)
Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer or Ixion Saga DT is a show that seemed like it would be a decent show. Swords usually make everything better right? This show is based on a game by Capcom, one that I haven’t played so I can’t really comment on the game. One day Kon is playing an MMORPG… Continue reading Ixion Saga Dimensional Transfer (DT Ikushion Sāga Dī Tī)
