Sweetness and Lightning Staff Review

So you thought we were done reviewing the summer season? Think again! For one final show, the staff has gathered together to give various opinions on what clearly had the most diverse appeal to all of our differing tastes: Sweetness and Lightning.

Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 3/3)

Shokugeki no Souma: Ni no Sara Food Wars! The Second Plate Annalyn – 7/10 Shokugeki 2 only has thirteen episodes, and I am not okay with that. I had my hopes up for twenty-four (like in the first season), so I was very disappointed when I realized I was watching the last episode. Honestly, Shokugeki is one of… Read More Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 3/3)

Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 2/3)

Berserk Berserk Medieval Otaku – 7/10 Berserk stands as one of the most famous manga ever made, and it received a brilliant anime adaptation in 1997.  One can see that they tried to bring the artistic craftsmanship of the series’ creator to life on screen.  The Berserk of 2016, however, which covers events after the Golden… Read More Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 2/3)

Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 1/3)

Planetarian Planetarian Japesland – 7/10 Writing critical reviews is perhaps the part of blogging that I am least skilled at. My opinions constantly change, and as soon as I say or write something somewhere, I often immediately regret what I stated or how I stated it. If you follow our podcast, you may remember the episode… Read More Summer Anime 2016 Review (Part 1/3)

Orange Episode 12: The Truth

As the final episode draws near, the mysteries of the past and future are slowly coming to light. After the recent disastrous shrine visit, Naho theorized that perhaps the reason Kakeru took his life was because of their argument. At the time, it seemed very likely. But now we finally discover the truth about Kakeru,… Read More Orange Episode 12: The Truth

Orange Episode 8: A Better Way

Naho is a fairly straightforward person. She’s followed the letter faithfully, with as much courage as she could muster, and with reasonable success. The faults that have gotten her into trouble have mostly been overthinking everything, isolating herself, and her reserved personality. But while it may not stop her from saving Kakeru, there’s another thing… Read More Orange Episode 8: A Better Way

Orange Episode 7: What Needs To Be Said

It’s difficult to be both sensitive and direct. In Naho’s case so far, she’s usually been one of either. She’s young and naïve, and although she never wants to hurt anyone, she can still speak carelessly. She’s especially oblivious to times when saying nothing is the most hurtful thing of all. Although she’s changed, she… Read More Orange Episode 7: What Needs To Be Said

Orange Episode 6: All This Time

We’ve reached the halfway mark of Orange, and it’s easy to see that though it employs many standard romance tropes, the story is very solid and well told. But this episode has left such an impact on the first half, it has overturned all of my assumptions regarding how much ingenuity the story contained. After the… Read More Orange Episode 6: All This Time

Orange Episode 5: Would You Rather

Orange has thus far been a sad but sweet anime with a fairly simple plot, and I assumed the most complicated aspect, time travel, would be left untouched. Instead, the effects of the letter have been well used and explored, and in this episode, the possibilities of time travel mechanics were finally discussed. I was… Read More Orange Episode 5: Would You Rather

Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another Mindset

One of my favorite currently airing anime (it began last season, and finishes this season) is Re:Zero. Despite my concern that the show would turn into a fanservice-filled, plot-light story of the idiot hero getting the beautiful girlfriend, I gave the show a shot, and boy am I glad I did. While the show has… Read More Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another Mindset
