So the first episode impressions are done for another season, but my work is far from over. You may recall back in the first part, I said I was gonna give six shows one more shot at winning me over, by watching their first three episodes. Afterall, sometimes a show needs an arc to establish …

First episode impressions may be over for the year, but that means it’s time to get down to actually watching the shows that impressed me. From the 52 new series (not a DC reference), five emerged. Some I expected to pass, such as Ancient Magus’ Bride and Children of the Whales, but there were also …

First episode impressions may be done and gone for the season, but that only means the real test begins now, as I get to see how the shows I championed unfold over the coming months. Half a dozen summer series stepped up this time around. From gamblers to spies, princes to pashas, ballroom dancers to …

In 2016, I did a whole lotta write-ups on the first episodes of anime, but a whole lotta nothing much about my thoughts afterwards. I did the odd review or tweeted a bit, but that was about it. Well, time to change that. Five Winter shows passed the test this time around, in the form …

Having somehow gotten past the Fall season, our intrepid team of writers is now ready to tackle the Winter. Or at least they would be if the Winter season wasn’t terrible, as I might’ve mentioned before. So this week it boils down to Alexe continuing her gif-filled journey through the second season of Magi, while …

Once upon a time, we did weekly reviews of shows. Not since the accident. But now, by sheer witchcraft, we’ve managed to cough up a few more reviews for your reading pleasure. So enjoy Alexe giving her thoughts on another couple of Magi episodes in her usual gif format, while I wrap up Galilei Donna …

Behold witchcraft in motion as this week’s anime recap goes live while you’re still at Anicom (or the pub, editing these takes a while). Truly, I’m a magician. Move over Aladdin. Still, with just a fortnight left until the most wonderful time of the year, why not hit the jump and kill a few minutes …

December, huh? Anybody out there bought an advent calendar? I must admit, the thought of daily chocolate has been tempting, but I’ve held off. Anyway, in Anicom based news, they’re holding a Secret Santa! If you’re interested in taking part (which you are) click this link, sign up and hope its not me picking your …

Woo, didn’t utterly destroy the blog installing multi-author stuff! Anyway, anybody keep track of Saimoe? Well, it turned into Saimadoka (again) this year, with the pink haired girl being the blue haired girl (damned if I know their names, it was a mediocre show I plan to review sometime). What people see in that series …

Getting ready for those next-gen systems? Seems so weird to think in mere days the Xbox One and Playstation 4 will be upon us, and that 360 I’ve had for 6 odd years will be “last -gen”. But this isn’t Video Games Society, its Anicom, which means its time for another batch of reviews! Y’all …
