Seen/Read All (public list)▲▼ | Rating▲▼ |
My Neighbor Totoro (movie) | Excellent 2020-06-17 I had no idea that I had never rated this movie before -- and I've even seen it in a theater! But I do not recall if I've seen the dub. I'm not rating it at 11/11 because I'm not a young child. |
My-HiME (TV) | Very good (dub & sub) Rise of the Dark Magical Girls
|
My-Otome (TV) | Good The plot really doesn't get into gear until about ⅓ into the series..... Also, sexual intercourse denies the girls their agency?! |
My-Otome 0~S.ifr~ (OAV) | Very good Watch this prequel AFTER watching Mai-Otome. |
My-Otome Zwei (OAV) | So-so |
Mysteria Friends (TV) | Excellent (dub & sub) ↓ Episode length is ~15 min.s.....
↑ |
Nabari no Ou (TV) | Very good (dub & sub) |
Napping Princess (movie) | Good (dub & sub) ↓
|
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (movie) | Excellent (dub & sub) |
Negadon: The Monster from Mars (movie) | So-so |
Negima! (TV) | Decent (dub & sub) |
Neo Ranga (TV) | Good (dub), Very good (sub) It concerns three sisters and their pet god..... 1st OP The Most Interesting Thing About Neo Ranga ↔ |
Netsuzou Trap -NTR- (TV) | Excellent 12 ep.s (10 min.s/ep.) Theron Martin's review is much better than anything that I might write..... While the series occasionally hints at some deeper point in its storytelling or characterization, Netsuzou Trap -NTR- works best as merely trashy fun. It does have some complexities, but the show doesn't dwell on them long enough to properly examine its potential themes, clearly selling itself more on girl-on-girl sex appeal than anything else. |
NieA_7 (TV) | Excellent (dub & sub) This is a quirky series. If you are looking for bright colors, fan service or action, then you will be disappointed. |
Night is Short, Walk On Girl (movie) | Masterpiece ↓ 1st of all, let me issue a massive caveat about my rating. This is an art house film; so your enjoyment will be in direct proportion to your tolerance for the art house genre.
