Girl Meets World: Season 3/ Episode 21 "Girl Meets Goodbye" [Series Finale] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With only a half hour to make a decision, as you’d expect, this sort of reunion show rushes through everyone’s advice to Topanga over what to do. Yet, as always, despite a short time length, Girl Meets World takes advantage of what you’ve learned thus far about these people and makes…

Greenleaf: Season 1/ Episode 1 "A Time to Heal" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview Despite all the programs currently on OWN, for the most part, if it didn’t have Oprah’s name on it, if she wasn’t interviewing someone, I honestly felt it wasn’t worth watching. Yes, there are a million and one Tyler Perry shows on the network, but there is something about his brand that I just…

Gotham: Season 3/ Episode 12 "Mad City: Ghosts" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I haven’t reviewed an episode of Gotham since early in the 2nd season but I still watch the show. For while the adventures of Jim Gordon and his faithful sidekick Harvey Bullock has always been a bane to this show, in mu opinion, they always were compensated by the villains and…

Believe: Series Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NkpOO47Q3I Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I should probably note, I’m speaking on this series mostly out of nostalgia and while I will recognize its fault which led it to only having one season, I figured this would be better than just spamming this blog with all of season 1’s episodes. So, with that said, let’s…

Demi-chan wa Kataritai (Interviews with Monster Girls): Season 1/ Episode 2 “Dullahan-Chan Wants To Be Coddled” – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfjQl-cgSSw Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) The focus this episode is on Machi, the Dullahan, and her developing feelings for Takahashi-sensei.

A Series of Unfortunate Events: Season 1/ Episode 1 "The Bad Beginning (Part 1)" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Like HBO, Showtime, AMC, FreeForm and etc, there is a certain expectation which comes from announced projects. On top of that, when a project is an adaption, much less a book adaption then, on top of that, a property that has been previously adopted, the expectations builds and builds to the…

Youjo Senki (Saga of Tanya The Evil): Season 1/ Episode 2 "Prologue" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2U8xDqmKZu4 Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I had to double check if I was watching the right show when the episode started. The style looked different, we were in a different era and focusing on a different person. However, lo and behold (shout out to a commenter who said I was using it wrong), the person…

Chaos;Child: Season 1/ Episode 0 "Chaos;Head" & 1 "Digital Negative" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPoweoGCUgU Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) It has been nearly a decade since Chaos;Head was released and honestly I only remember that I watched it. Making episode 0 decent for sparking up some memories but, combined with episode 1, honestly unless you like seeing bodies twisted, mangled, or disfigured, I’m not sure what you may get…

Girl Meets World: Season 3/ Episode 20 "Girl Meets Sweet Sixteen" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E38IcmCvIMw Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With the recent decision that Disney will be cancelling the show, despite a reported plan 4th season previously agreed on, you’d have to wonder why? It is one of their top shows, arguably one of the few that has its actors and story talked about, outside of children’s television, and…

Kuzu no Honkai (Scum’s Wish): Season 1/ Episode 1 "Make a Wish" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nyc3bclxqm8 Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Unrequited love, especially from a person you have access to, who interacts with you but never develops the same feelings you have for them is a weight on the heart. This is on full display and may sadly bring back memories of not the proverbial “One who got away” but…

Beyond: Season 1/ Episode 10 "Into the Light" [Season Finale] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Like most season finales, outside of maybe Game of Thrones, we don’t end things on a high but a fizzle. For while we finally get to know what those weird faceless things are, many of the other things revealed below are either frustrating or just too convenient. Trigger Warning(s): Maggots

ACCA: 13-ku Kansatsu-ka: Season 1/ Episode 1 "Jean the Cigarette-Peddler" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) With a drab art style, a lead who seems disinterested in anything besides smoking, paired with subordinates who are annoying jokey and someone who is envious of our lead and wants to take him down a peg… I feel so tricked by the preview.

Emerald City: Season 1/ Episode 1 & 2 "The Beast Forever & Prison of the Abject" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKeRnyFIHWs Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Emerald City presents Oz to be a mix between The Shannara Chronicles and Games of Thrones, with its sexual content and violence hinted at or off-screen. For with its complicated politics, secrets, and sense of culture, yet performances which are only good enough to make you like the characters, but…

Demi-chan wa Kataritai (Interviews with Monster Girls): Season 1/ Episode 1 "Takahashi Tetsuo Wants an Interview" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jy6_Fp_fco Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Demi-chan wa Kataritai reminds me of Zootopia. For despite the cuteish nature of the previews, it deals with prejudice, being uncomfortable in knowing you are a minority and having to dispel and avoid stereotypes.

Fuuka: Season 1/ Episode 1 "Fuuka!" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Oh11GzrFn8 Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) As opposed to Seiren, Fuuka delivers what a person would want and desire from a first episode. The boy may still be generic, but the girl more than compensates for that. Making it so when they get close and he notes they aren’t a couple, but she responds with “We…

Seiren: Season 1/ Episode 1 "Decision" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_hKXW7zKMw Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Trying to figure out what you are going to do with your life, when it has been guided by teachers and parents more than yourself, is daunting. Luckily there are always friends to guide you, and many a potential love interest to distract you.

Youjo Senki (Saga of Tanya the Evil): Season 1/ Episode 1 "The Devil of the Rhine" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybpmPUMK_WY Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) I want you to imagine Izetta: The Last Witch and up the violence while toning down how memorable some of the supporting characters are. In episode one “The Devil of the Rhine” that’s what you get. But believe me when I say this show will likely far surpass the best…

Masamune-kun no Revenge: Season 1/ Episode 1 "The Boy Who Was Called Pig’s Foot" [Series Premiere] – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zulhtadjYwI Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) You remember one of your first real crushes? I’m talking about in elementary school where holding hands was the most intimate thing ever. Well, imagine, or remember, feeling rejected. Makabe remembers. He has for likely almost for a decade, and this leads us to follow his tale of revenge. Assuming…

Star: Season 1/ Episode 2 "The Devil You Know" – Overview/ Review (with Spoilers)

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) There is a certain realness it seems Star is trying to have. Be it addressing Rich Black privilege, self-medicating/ addiction, or even something as small as noting when girls go to the bathroom it can stink like hell too.  Making it so it almost seems like Daniels, with this show, is…
