Ranma 1/2 (2024)
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 If you’re aware of more classic or old school anime, you may have watched the first or second adaptation that ran in the ’80s and early ’90s. I’ve never delved much into the past beyond Ghibli movies, though YuYu Hakusho started airing the year the second adaption ended. Anyways, point… Read more

Dungeon Meshi
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 I know I’m a little late to this one, but when anything gets super popular it can be a little hard to evaluate it simply because there’s a lot of excitement and opinions about it. Now these reviews are just something I do as a hobby right now, so I… Read more

Spice and Wolf: MERCHANT MEETS THE WISE WOLF
Watched: Dub Covers: Season 1 Also known as: Spice and Wolf (2024) Earlier in 2024 I watched the original Spice and Wolf show, which ran for 25 episodes. It is really good, and even in light of the new anime I can still recommend it. The main difference is the new show is more faithful… Read more

Dandadan
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 Also known as: Dan Da Dan This was a breakout hit for the Fall 2024 season, and if you’ve watched it’s not hard to see why. A warning, the show is a little NSFW and the first episode might be a little triggering. However, any of those elements never feel… Read more

TsumaSho
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 Also Known As: If My Wife Becomes an Elementary Schooler I started hearing buzz about this when it was announced, with people saying it was good but the title might drive people away. However, I think we’ve all learned to not judge something by its title by now, right? It… Read more

Blue Box
Watched: Sub Covers: Season 1 Going into this anime I was a little unsure how I would feel about it because I have watched 0 sports anime and this certainly seemed like it’d be a mix of that and romance. I think I was right, but it wasn’t a detriment, so maybe I’ll give a… Read more

I Parry Everything
I really will never get tired of the sentence like titles some of these shows roll up with. In fairness to them we are slowly running out of unique one or two word titles, if we haven’t already, but I still don’t think that quite justifies… 14 words? I’d criticize it more for this but… Read more

The Ossan Newbie Adventurer, Trained to Death by the Most Powerful Party, Became Invincible
I really will never get tired of the sentence like titles some of these shows roll up with. In fairness to them we are slowly running out of unique one- or two-word titles, if we haven’t already, but I still don’t think that quite justifies… 14 words? I’d criticize it more for this, but it… Read more

My Deer Friend Nokotan
In a world where there were no big-name anime coming out this season and people apparently couldn’t figure out what to do with themselves, one deer-based comedy show gained unusual levels of popularity for about three weeks and then was rarely spoken about again. People were talking about it, friends who aren’t that into anime… Read more

Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feeling in Russian
Ah, one of the oh so many romcoms this season. I swear there are normally like one or two that show up every other season but for whatever reason they really piled them on this summer. There has to be at least five. I’m sure of it. I’m definitely going to get a full count… Read more
