Violet Evergarden is one of the few animes which match beautiful visuals with a story that will, in time, rock your heart and inspire tears.
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.
While Doreiku might be strange, especially due to the show being about enslaving people, what most do with the power is uninspiring.
It’s a feel-good finale which has the slightest bit of drama, but pretty much is one feel good moment after another.
As expected, something happens which nearly ruins the possibility of Dylan x Alexa, and its Lucas’ fault.

Katie ends up pulling an Alexa as she goes overboard because she isn’t getting enough attention and feels things changing.
This weird little family comedy, which hints at a sad, if not outright traumatic past, really shouldn’t be as hard to find as it is.

Katie gets the cancer kid treatment and while it begins with some likable treats, the pity begins to get to her.
Ultimately, The Quad was a show with good ideas that had never really found a way to execute the majority of its plots for long-term success.
One of the side effects of cancer seems to be a more lenient Lori, and this worries Alexa to the point of seeing if her mom still cares if she causes trouble.
It’s time for basketball tryouts and Katie ends up helping Alexa by allowing her to live vicariously through her. Problem is, Katie knows very little about basketball.
With heads freshly shaven, the girls need some wigs and with that comes a bit of insecurity.
Alexa and Katie seems like something Netflix stole from the Disney Channel in terms of both the way the comedy is set up and Disney’s new venture into more mature topics.
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.
Beautifully tragic. Essentially that is what The Ancient Magus’ Bride is. A story dealing with neglect, ostracism, outright abandonment, and trying to figure out a way to more than just deal with it but find stable sources of joy.
Garo – Vanishing Line is bloated and surely not going to push you to look into the other series under the Garo umbrella.

Kokkoku ultimately is like walking down a dead end street, reaching the end, and continuing to walk forward, into an empty lot, hoping to find something valuable.
Citrus has its moments. Especially when addressing female homosexuality in Japan. However, despite the growth of character Yuzu, it’s more about tantalization than substance.
9-1-1 starts off strong but loses its luster as you get used to the sometimes outlandish 911 calls and the drama of the cast seems to lose its importance.
Because Netflix isn’t the only one who can do surprises, the first episode of FLCL: Alternative dropped and, well the show is as weird as you remember.
With vampires and werewolves having long saturated the market, FreeForm decides to tap into the mystical creature known as mermaids to a decent, but not overwhelming, new program.
The final episode does what most of the season failed to make you do, care about the fate of the characters.
“Barbershop” is one of those random Alfred episodes which don’t push the story forward but more so establish the weirdness and randomness of certain character’s everyday life.
