Invincible (Season 3)
Invincible Season 3 continues to deliver bloody action scenes and deeper character development, and for better or worse its formula remains.

Ubel Blatt
I’m just so fucking confused by this show. It’s your typical dark fantasy action show with all the blood and gore and edgy characters you’d expect from such a prestigious genre but it feels like they totally missed the mark on what people are looking for in that kind of thing. I hope I’m not…

Blah Blah I Hate My Wife Blah
Have you ever been at work or doing some kind of group activity and someone fucks up so much that you have to sit there and wait for a whole day bored out of your mind while they clean up their mess? That’s probably a comparable level of boredom to how I felt trying to…

Shangri-La Frontier
I can’t remember if I wrote a review for the first season of this show and I don’t feel like checking so I’m just going to make this a review of all of it up to the end of the second season. This show has a lot of ups and downs and swings in momentum.…

Solo Leveling Season 2
Some of you might remember that I was not a fan of Solo Leveling season 1 and might be wondering why I even bothered with season 2. Well, it’s because several people couldn’t shut up about how good they thought the show was and I felt the need to prove them wrong. As part of…

She Ra and the Princess of Power
Armed with a special sword that makes her basically the Avatar, and the two best side characters a show has had in recent years, Adora sets out to bring balance to the force, I mean Etheria, in this awesome girl power adventure.

My Happy Marriage Vol. 2
★ ★ ★ ★
In the second installment of the series we get more of the story beats of the end of season 1 of the show. I really enjoyed meeting the new characters and actually getting the time to learn their motives more than you do in the show. Some of the writing in this volume was a little slower than volume 1, but overall still a great read. Happy with the series so far and am excited to move on to book 3!

I’m Living with an Otaku NEET Kunoichi
A surprisingly fun show that somehow managed to lean harder on its cute, wholesome romance side than its total degen, ecchi side. A possible contender for best romcom of the season but only from lack of competition.

Kakushite! Makina-san!!
At least this horny ass show has some more respect for your time by only being 12 minutes long. Still manages to make showing tits as boring as listing to a finance bro drone on about shit.

Who Are We and How Do We Do It?
What makes each of our reviewers tick? Find out but checking out our profiles and learning how we differ in our reviewing methods.
Review Process
Our Own Scales
We each use our own scales and methodology when reviewing a show, book, game or really anything. This means scores will vary by reviewer for the same topic, but each reviewer will have their own consistent reasoning behind reviews.
Differences of Opinions
We all have vastly different lives, backgrounds and interests. This means we frequently disagree on things. One of us may love a show and the others might hate it. This leads to some “healthy” debating and maybe one day we will show you what that looks like.
Flexibility to Adjust Our Scores
Opinions change and so do we! Sometimes we may go back to something we’ve already reviewed and give it a new score, these reviews will be tagged as “redos” so that they’re easy to find and they will always link to the original review if possible.
We Have Our Favorites
We all tend to have certain things we’ve watched, played, read etc that really hit home. For us you’ll quickly find out which are our favorites as we refer back to them as the “gold standard” for each category. We will tag our true top tier reviews as “gold standard” so that you can quickly find out what our favorites are.
