Daemons of the Shadow Realm has been a bit of a letdown. It had a banger first episode, but ever since then, the pacing has slowed to a crawl, and the twins haven’t really developed super interesting personalities. So y’know, now that summer season is a upon us, I’ve been glancing around, checking out other options. Am I going to NTR Daemons of the Shadow Realm? Maybe, maybe not. (more…)

First up is Sorry About My Little Brothers. (more…)

Doubt. Also, this is how Luck, the main character of I Became a Legend After My 10 Year-Long Last Stand, used to look. Ugh, gross! Ptooey! Who would ever want to watch an anime starring such an old, geriatric geezer at the ripe age of… checks notes… 30! Even worse, he becomes 40 after his ten year last stand! Luckily, his oh-so-epic battle against the demon lord has the unexpected side effect of…

Full disclosure: I went into Chainsmoker Cat already predisposed to disliking the main character, because smoking is a disgusting habit. Plus, I grew up with a chainsmoker for the first few formative years of my life. It got so bad, I needed an inhaler. Couldn’t do shit in P.E. with the rest of the kids for a long while, which had its own set of consequences I don’t want to get into. Thankfully,…

Judging from the synopsis alone, The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System has all the hallmarks of being a complete throwaway. Yet another isekai, yet another hero who is underestimated because he gets saddled with a seemingly useless job (heavy knight, this time), so on and so forth. And yet, the animation quality is so lavish. Not only that, the voice actors driving this story are…

Huh, was that the last episode? It has to be, since we’re already in July. I dunno, I guess I half-expected something to happen between Koyuki and Minato. More specifically, I half-expected Momoka to make a play at Minato, and since he’s been feeling as though he’s crossed a line with Koyuki, he might accept Momoka’s feelings. ‘Cause this is what this show is all about, right? This show is all…

Right off the bat, The Villager of Level 999 tell you that monsters have encroached on real world Japan. As a result, so has classic RPG mechanics such as a class system. We’re all assigned a role at birth. Some people are warriors, some are mages, so on and so forth. Well, that’s certainly one way to do it. But why would you need to be a mage when you have the power of gun? Why would you need to…

In The Oblivious Saint Can’t Contain Her Power, there are two sisters — one talented and one not so talented. Unfortunately, Fiora, the talented sister, despises Caroline, the younger, not so talented sister. She doesn’t even try to hide it either. It’s full mask off right from the start, because there’s no subtlety in anime. Fiora resents Caroline, because their mother died in childbirth. Sounds like yet another classic case of anime…

They were just roommates, tho! (more…)

I don’t think I can watch this show. I lost my cat last year, and it still stings whenever I see posts on Reddit of people mourning their cats. Unfortunately, there are a whole lot of dead cats in this one episode. Also a dead dragon. Even if these animals can talk — and are arguably smarter than us — I can’t help but see them as pets. As a result, I can’t really stand the sadness. Not right now,…

I’ll probably still do a first impressions for the vast majority of the shows on this list, but whether or not I’ll cover them? Well, here’s how this will likely work… (more…)

Two summer shows have already started airing, and I’m sorry to spoil you on this, but they’re both isekais. Sigh, here we go again. (more…)

Unfortunately, secrets always come out. Juuuuuust not in the way we think. (more…)

I just wanted to include this lady in the post somehow, because she looks so goofy. (more…)

So what’s left? I keep asking, because I have no general sense of what we’re building up to. How exactly do we cap off this series? (more…)

Outside the cave, the girlies are having fun, but they’re about to find out that something has gone terribly wrong. (more…)

When we last left off, we added yet another new face to the cast: Dera’s half-brother. So now what? (more…)
