Dragon Ball Super - A look back, a glimpse forward

Provided you haven’t been living under a rock, you should, by now, know about the announcement of Dragon Ball Super, a new Dragon Ball anime.

My expectations?

Mixed.

Aldnoah.Zero - The Finale

True to my predictions, the finale disappointed in several levels.

Let’s take a look at them, shall we?

Aldnoah.Zero and the Loss of Tension

The Journey Ends

The last episode of Aldnoah.Zero is only hours away. Thus, it is prudent to ask how do you lose the tension for a finale?

By messing up the first one.

When the Bad Guy has a Point AKA Hakuryuu did Nothing Wrong

What do you mean he's not the hero of the story?

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic is a wonderful Manga, but like any manga it has weaknesses. The main one being the accidental subversion of the themes it holds up.

By that, I mean Hakuryuu and Judal make more sense than anyone else in the manga, but let’s take this from the beginning.

Sorry!

Not the Face!

It has been more than two months since my last update. For that I have to apologize.

There are several reasons really. The holiday season was one. Additionally, my interest in Log Horizon and Shingeki no Bahamut dropped to the point I will no longer review the remaining episodes. 

It says a lot the episode I liked the most from Log Horizon was the one featuring an entirely different cast.

Though to be fair, it’s hard to beat a guy playing a ninja turtle frog.

There is also this novel length story I was writing (First, 50k Draft is done. Just needs Revising. Lots of revising).

Mostly though, it was lack of time.  

I will make an effort to post with greater frequency in the future. 

Naruto - Hard Work and Genius

Naruto has ended.

It has taken a while for that to really sink in for me, you know?

Well, even if I say that I have been wanting to write about this for a while, but I have barely been having time this past month. Really, I should be going over the new episodes of Log Horizon or Bahamut right now.

Well, screw those! It's Naruto time now!

Hard Work, I figure, is as good place to start as any. Better than most even.

Because, really, where exactly does Hard Work fit into this manga?

That’s not a complaint by the way. It’s a question. A question which plenty of people have gotten wrong through the years.

Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis 7

After a recap episode which we’ll skip for obvious reasons, we’ll return to the action.
