Overview In a world where demons, humans, and faeries co-exist, though not like Kekkai Sensen, there is a fairy tale about the Divine Gate.

Overview After 6 seasons Downton Abbey has come to an end. However, with it coming to the end on a Christmas Special, so comes the question if there will be at least one final somber moment before the cast bids us farewell. A move many a series has done on both sides of the Atlantic.
Overview Between the death of a character, an injury, and a bit of good news, many characters find their lives shifting, often for the better. Though for one, if not two, it seems a reminder of how terrible life is maybe all they will get.

For with an old friend visiting Downton, some happy news for a few of those who work downstairs, and the possibility of love, it seems any and all drama shall lead…
Overview A strange anime dealing with a bone-obsessed young woman, and a young man who acts as her voice of reason for her obsession often leads to insensitive comments and misunderstood actions.
Overview With the exit of Jessica Lange seemingly comes more attempts to draw your attention with the grotesque and shocking, rather than with compelling characters or an interesting story.
Overview Between the wedding, the continuing trouble over the hospital merger, old faces, and the question of what the future may bring, Downton Abbey keeps the energy a bit upbeat and keeps the season enjoyable and brisk.
The season premiere is all about setting things up. Unfortunately though, Ougi is the one helping Araragi setup the events of the season.
Overview What seemed like a silly OVA, which could have become perverted, thankfully is about exploring Gija’s relationship with his father, as well as hinting at Jeaha’s childhood.
Overview Perhaps one of the major topics of the episode deals with the evolving options a woman has within 1925, and how the world takes those options. For whether it is Edith possibly living alone, like Aunt Rosalind; Mary becoming the agent of the estate; Anna perhaps having an option which may help her carry…
Overview It’s 1925 in Downton and it seems the end of the grandeur lives of the upper crust is inching closer and closer, and fears of the changes to come have everyone shook. Though, even with that worry over everyone’s heads, there still remains quite a bit of personal drama to tend to.
Overview Attack On Titan loses quite a bit of what made the anime good, but even with the creative license took, a handful of the action scenes sort of balance it out.
Overview Blunt Talk is pure madness. From being caught with a trans sex worker to interviewing himself, Walter Blunt is the type of figure which will either make you laugh your butt off or question, “What in the hell is Patrick Stewart doing with his life?”
Overview A possible super soldier appears to have her memories erased, but not to the point of forgetting how to walk, talk, and show her combat skills. Alongside her memory loss though comes dozens upon dozens of tattoos, all of which may very well be relevant clues to stop terrorist attacks, and possibly expose some…
Initial Thoughts As someone who has read the book, much less took notes while reading it to break it down chapter by chapter, honestly I was sort of excited for the film. Albeit, Paper Towns is my least favorite John Green book, and honestly I feel like I was meh on it overall, but there…
Initial Thoughts What rises must eventually fall, and it seems a lot of what made episode 2 exciting was eventually lost. For with only 3 episodes, each an hour and a half, with little build, little payoff, and not much given to make memories of the time lost placed within the realm of nostalgia, what…
Initial Thoughts Being that the first episode was a bit underwhelming, my only hopes were that it compensated for the weak political issues with more of Jogia and Bunbury. Something which it mostly does, but a part of me feels with the realization that those two’s romance was a bit too strong, they decided to…
Initial Thoughts To be completely honest, while Tut was an interesting topic in Middle school, that isn’t what got me interested in this mini-series. If anything, it was the casting of Avan Jogia as King Tut, and Jogia reuniting with Kylie Bunbury, who he last shared the silver screen with in the ill-fated Twisted. As…
Overview As the season comes to a close, a few things have become apparent. The first, and most glaring, is that the way woman suffer will always be more graphic and degrading, in comparison to the men; the second being, to invest too much in heroes maybe a waste for, as said in The Dark…
Introduction When it comes to being saved, often the first ones spoken on are the women and the children. In the world of Game of Thrones however, they usually are last. And while we have seen many a woman suffer rape and other moments in which their autonomy and dignity have been destroyed, it seems…
Introduction If most of the season has been building to something, it must have been this episode. For once more Jon Snow brings the action to the series, as he meets up with the free folk on their turf. Though, I should note, it isn’t them he squares off with, but the dreaded White Walkers….
Overview Aloha tries present a complex story dealing with new love, and one which was abandoned; Hawaii’s culture; and a chance at redemption which may leave a person’s morality in flux. All of which isn’t honestly handled the best way, but it does end with giving you a few nice fuzzy feelings. Review (with Spoilers)…
Overview The things people will do for love is an ongoing theme. Though, as always with Game of Thrones, mentions of love never solely deal with the love of another person. No, love and this show is almost always about power and for many it is the continued pursuit of it, or the longing for…

Overview Barely Lethal is the type of movie which, due to gun violence, cursing, and mild sexuality, is just barely a little too risqué to be something you’d expect to see premiere on Nickelodeon or, at its mildest moments, the Disney Channel. Review (with Spoilers) – Below

Overview Arslan Senki’s premiere episode sets an almost perfect foundation for the series. For with their being a culture clash, which leads to war; characters with enough personality to remember their unique names; and there seemingly being only a focus on characters and story, rather than ecchi moments, this series definitely stands out amongst the…
