I am so happy that they made a sequel to one of my favorite anime of all time…seven years later.
― I am so happy that they made a sequel to one of my favorite anime of all time…seven years later.

―

The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows Volumes 1-5 Novel Review
The Brilliant Healer’s New Life in the Shadows is, on the whole, a surprisingly good series.
― You could be forgiven for assuming that you've read or watched this story a thousand times before in the year 2025. The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows draws from some very dry wells if you look on the surface; it appears to be both a demihuman harem and a story about a powerful guy who gets kick...

release order, Macross Zero sits between 1997's Macross Dynamite 7 and 2008's Macross
Frontier. Chronologically, its events occur before every other ...

These first five episodes are more than compelling in their own right and set the rest of Lazarus up to be the exact mirror that our global society needs at this moment.
― First and foremost, you should know that this ain't Cowboy Bebop, partner! While Lazarus is the most stylistically and tonally similar to Bebop out of all of director Shinichirō Watanabe's subsequent works, it's not trying to be Co...
