I bought the series on iTunes. I...just couldn't keep watching it after the mockery they made of "Resurrection". And I sure as hell don't remember any "paper journal that lasted a hundred million years" in Sun.

Tell me this, anyone else who's had the good fortune to both read and watch the final chapter of Phoenix: did they do it justice?

Aldnoah.Zero [Re+] Anime Film Review

Apr 5, 12:00

3 comments

anime

This film is worth watching for the new episode alone. As for the compilation film attached to it... ― When it comes to many mecha anime, the protagonist is the pilot of some special or powerful mobile suit and uses it to turn the tide in a war (often one between Earth and space). Aldoah.Zero is the reverse of this. Rather than the heroes, it is the villains who have Gundam-like mobile suits powered ...

Macross 7 the Movie: The Galaxy is Calling Me and Macross Dynamite 7 OVAs 1-4 Anime Streaming Review

Apr 4, 12:00

anime

Macross Dynamite 7’s aesthetic is of its time, and it looks great. ― In terms of sheer volume of content, Macross 7 easily beats any of its franchise stablemates. At 49 TV episodes, the three-part Encore OVAs (bundled with the TV show on Hulu/Disney+), a short 1995 theatrical movie – The Galaxy is Calling Me, and the four-part Dynamite 7 OVA, that's a lot of one particular Macross flavor. If you didn...

OK, that's not technically true, considering that between the airing of the first season of Hajime no Ippo and New Challenger there was a movie, as well as a fairly popular OVA, that was released.

novels

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...
