Island: Season 1/ Episode 1 “We Meet Again” [Series Premiere] – Recap/ Review (with Spoilers)
With a rather lukewarm series of mysteries and basic characters, Island may not make any top 10 list for the summer season.

While Shiina is introduced, so is the idea Okabe and Suzu weren’t the only ones looking for her. Which, with Moeka around, raises red flags.
There might actually be something that could make this spin-off interesting. However, how much longer can we get strung along?
Steins;Gate 0 attempts to inspire interest by noting Okabe feeling a world line shift, and it being noted Suzu didn’t return to the past alone.
We’re right back where we started and the action is… okay. But it is the ending of the episode which brings interest.
Mayushii’s feelings for Okabe are addressed, just as much as him forgetting the Kurisu he has been speaking with is just AI.
It seems this will be the last episode covering what happened before the events of the first one – thank god.
As Okabe seeks closure, it seems he is only drawn deeper into his trauma as Maho gets closer to him.
We meet Karen’s real-life friend as well as one of Llenn’s first virtual friends, alongside seeing Kohi’s first days in a VR environment. Yeah, it’s kind of boring.
Most of Caligula’s premiere is dedicated to its lead talking like the most boring lecturer you’ll ever meet, and it is hard to say if the end of the premiere makes up for that.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
