Twin Star Exorcists is one of those animes you dismiss at first glance, thinking that it won’t be any good but you keep the anime in the back of your mind because maybe, just maybe it won’t be as bad as you expected. Then one day I was bored and decided to try watching this […]

Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto Review
Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto is a new anime being simulcast this spring on Crunchyroll. I had never even heard of this series and wasn’t too interested in watching it until I decided out of boredom to try it out. Sakamoto hits the WTF! Comedy/gag button for anime and its something that I rarely watch […]
Cerberus Anime Review
At first sight, Cerberus looks like a great anime to watch. Cerberus has a fantasy world with magic, dragons, swordsman, monsters and if you couple that with a main character who’s goal is to avenge his parent’s death the result should be good anime but with all that being said, Cerberus has a fatal weakness, […]
Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-
I have a confession to make, one of my favorite anime’s of this current season is Re:Zero. Re:Zero genres seems to be in the fantasy, action, comedy, adventure and romance category’s though I am starting to see little hints and teases of a harem in it. The story begins with Natsuki Subaru, just your average […]
Hundred Anime Review
Another day, another review on a school harem anime called Hundred. If Asterisk War is at the top for school harem anime’s then Hundred is scraping near the bottom with occasional bouts of mediocrity to liven things up.

Gakusen Toshi Asterisk aka the English title is The Asterisk War turns out to be yet another series in a long line of school harem animes.

Eyeshield 21 Review
Japanese manga and anime seem to be able to make even the most mundane tasks, like baking bread, into something that is very entertaining. Eyeshield 21 is something that is startling and outside the norm, a manga about Amercian football. Soccer aka football to the rest of the world, baseball, judo, karate, MMA and various […]
The Rising of the Shield Hero Book 1
Aneko Yusagi’s The Rising of the Shield Hero novel series is something that is following the current trend in Japan. It is yet another series where virtual reality becomes the new reality in a game-like world and the hero must save the world from whatever the ultimate evil is. While the plot is similar, the […]
Bakuman Manga Review
The creators of Bakuman are the same people who created the famous Death Note series. Death Note wasn’t like your typical Shonen Jump series with its dark, controversial content and Bakuman also breaks the Shonen Jump mold in an entirely different way. I want to get this out of the way first, Bakuman is one of my […]
