Spring is officially in bloom! If all the vibrantly green plants and buzzing critters didn’t make that evident, then my allergies sure as hell did. Since I have been in an odd Spring-like mood recently, I wanted to share with you my top five favourite feel-good anime serials from 2018 that also happen to be…
The Spring anime season has been one of the most enjoyable simulcast seasons for me in a long time! There are plenty of titles out there that have made me laugh, relate to, and get emotional over. The visuals have been breath-taking, the music a magnificent combination of traditional, jazzy, and an homage to hip-hop…
When I initially created my watchlist for the Spring 2018 anime season, Rokuhōdō Yotsuiro Biyori was a series that I had a strong feeling I would adore, mostly from the beautiful aesthetics and traditional details highlighted in the PV. After watching the first episode or two, I am happy to say that this series will…
Libra of Nil Admirari was one of the shows that I was looking forward to watching the most this season as it revolves around books. Originally a seinen, fantasy, mystery, historical fiction visual novel, studio Zero-G is adapting it into an anime serial with direction from Masahiro Takata. But after watching the first episode, I…
Tada Doesn’t Fall in Love is an original romantic comedy anime from studio Doga Kobo, with direction from Mitsue Yamazaki, that I placed on my watchlist due to how beautiful the visuals looked. To be honest, that was the only motivator behind my interest in the series, as I do not tend to gravitate towards…

Kakuriyo –Bed & Breakfast for Spirits— is a josei, supernatural anime adaptation of the original light novel series written by Midori Yūma.

Megalo Box is a shōnen, sports (boxing), dystopian, nanopunk original anime series from the studio TMS Entertainment, with direction from Chikara Sakuma.

When I was scoping out the Spring 2017 Anime line-up, The Royal Tutor didn’t really hit my radar. From the synopsis and the preview graphics that had been released, I honestly thought it was going to be a very cheesy show with some strong boy-love vibes. As a person who doesn’t usually go for the…
Okay, so technically the mid-season mark was about three weeks ago and that’s when this post should’ve gone up. But to be blunt, I fell behind with the season’s shows due to sheer laziness and impatience. The lazy part is silly and kind of ridiculous, but the impatience, I believe, is a legitimate excuse. Sometimes…
Granblue Fantasy: The Animation is a new anime series that’s an adaptation of the mobile video game, Granblue Fantasy. I remember the video game was a big deal because the music was co-produced by Nobuo Uematsu, who is an extremely renowned talent known for his contribution to the Final Fantasy gaming franchise. The anime is…
