Fate/strange Fake – Episode 1 (Special Airing)

anime

This episode serves as an inversion to the start of Fate/stay night with a Saber that shouldn't have been summoned and a protagonist who outright refuses to become one. ― The 2023 special Fate/strange Fake -Whispers of Dawn- began the story of Fate/strange Fake by introducing us to the various mages and their summoned heroes. It also laid down the ground rules for this story and how it deviated from ...

anime

It's time to cue the sad trombone. ― There's the worst anime of a respective season and there's "The Worst" of the entire year. Below are series that weren't just disposable and annoying; they failed so spectacularly that we couldn't stop thinking about it. ANN's critic choices are based on loose criteria for "worst;" below are series our writers found wholly disappointing despite initial first impr...

Tying the Knot With an Amagami Sister Anime Series Review

Jan 4, 12:00

22 comments

anime

There's no pretending this harem anime is particularly good, but it's rewarding to see it recover from a disastrous start and rise up to something decent. ― There are anime that blend heart-warming wholesomeness with something more lewd. One case is Your Name, a chastely yearning love story with jokes about boob-groping, and arguably non-consensual boob-groping at that. Then there are shows like Dan ...

Jean-Karlo looks at the history of the Mega Man U.S. cartoon, the NIKKE mascot that has escaped gacha containment, and a new visual novel from Success! ― Welcome back, everyone! Taking a week off from writing This Week in Game feels weird; I'm almost always working on it, so it's odd to sit back and see something on Bluesky and think, "Oh, I gotta remember to cover that... next week. At any rate, a f...

Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2205 Anime Review

Jan 3, 12:00

More kinetic than Legend of the Galactic Heroes (but sharing its naval theme) and less frenetic than Macross, Yamato strikes a good middle ground for exciting animated space warfare. ― Much like that other pillar of classic anime space sci-fi, Macross, the Space Battleship Yamato franchise experienced a frustrating journey to Western TV screens. The original 1974 series came to the US as Star Blazers...

Crescent Moon Marching becomes a story of how young Mizuki understands what it means to be passionate about music and how crucial it is to improve yourself while understanding others. ― Originality is a tough thing to come by. The great Salvador Dali once said that those who imitate nothing produce nothing. Considering the infinite artists, musicians, writers, and other types of pen-wielders who have...
