Overview There is a new anti-hero on the block and he is a reformed preacher with a badass ex-girlfriend, an otherworldly new friend, and a promise he is trying to keep.

Overview As this arc ends, it almost makes me sad that the next iteration of the series, Kizumonogatari, will be jumping back to when Araragi met Shinobu. Review (with Spoilers) It is a bittersweet end when it comes to our focus on Suruga. If just because as soon as you are really growing attached to…
Overview After Numachi finishes her story Suruga is given terrible news. Review (with Spoilers) An interesting combination of events happens this episode. Numachi explains how she came to inherit the devil’s leg; Karen reveals some news about Numachi, and then Koyomi shows up. Leaving me unable to guess at all, after all is said and…
Overview Rather than the story shifting to finding Numachi, we instead learn how she came to have 2 devil’s parts. Review (with Spoilers) Well, it seems Kaiki’s purpose has come and gone since Numachi shows up at Suruga’s school. Leading to the idea that whatever is to go down will get dramatically sped up due…
Overview Between Suruga’s arm being free of the monkey paw, Numachi going missing, and Kaiki showing up, a lot goes. Review (with Spoilers) I’m very lost at to how Kaiki is still alive after Hitagi End: Part Six, but somehow he survived nearly bleeding out. Good thing too since, with Numachi disappearing, it seems Suruga…
Overview A robot assists in the grieving process, helping someone cope with the tragic death of a significant other. Review (with Spoilers) I found out about HAL randomly, watched the first few minutes, saw the cool art style, saw robots, and figured it should be worth reviewing. Now, after watching the OVA, I feel drained…
Overview As Suruga adjust to life without Araragi, Senjogahara, as well as Hanekawa, a new charm rumor arises which she decides to investigate. Review (with Spoilers) When it comes to the first episode things begin on a rather boring note. For while Ougi appears, as a boy, and we meet some of Suruga’s old friends,…
Overview Like the majority of comic book adaptations in the modern age, Jessica Jones is dark, brooding, and somber. Making it so perhaps the one unique trait the show may have is the fact it has a female lead.
Overview Javier is the focus of the episode as his family comes to town and reveals why he hasn’t seen them in 20 years. Trigger Warning(s): Head Shot Review (with Spoilers)
Introduction It is hard to say whether Scream is simply another example of Hollywood’s dependency on cashing in on familiar franchises, or perhaps MTV siphoning, little by little, off of what makes ABC Family interesting and just making it their own version of hip and with better music. Either way, the sole reason I watched…
Overview For those of you who are willing to have patience, you may have a potentially good series on your hands. Review (with Spoilers) Anyone who goes to an AMC theater early has probably seen a trailer for this program during the “AMC First Look.” Which, to me, presented an interesting story about a young…
Overview In the pilot, you’ll get a decent amount of story and 0 laughs. Review (with Spoilers) Being someone who wasn’t born, much less allowed, to watch Martin Lawrence during his heyday of being one of the top comics of the 90s, but watching a good portion of his work, it makes his return to…
Overview Another show feeding off classic literature villains, and characters, in hopes that it can find a way to stand out amongst the rest. Review (with Spoilers) The sole reason I had an interest in this show was Eva Green. She has this weird draw reminiscent of Angelina Jolie before Brad Pitt, and she seems…
Recap Two perfect people, two people you want to see hang or in the electric chair, and the request to pay $10+ a month to see the entire series. Um, let me think about that. Major Characters Joanna (Kina Grannis) | Peter (Harry Shum Jr.) | Chloe (Hillary Anne Matthews) | Mark (Eric Ochoa) |…
Introduction Being that I pretty much give damn near anything ABC Family puts out a chance, well their dramas anyway, naturally I had to look into Stitchers. Plus, with the show having a compelling preview in front of many of the films I see at AMC, I especially felt pushed to check this out. With…
Overview Humans makes up for a slightly lackluster season with a satisfying ending. One which gives you hope for a possible season 3. Review (with Spoilers)
Overview I want you to imagine an American inspired by Harry Potter wanting to put their own spin on it. Something which likely began as fan fiction, imagining if Harry and his friends were older, their issues ranging from depression to the need to succeed, and maybe even taking some elements of the X-Men into…
*At the time of this review I thought this was a movie, hence the tone of the review* Overview Residue provides the type of sci-fi experience you’d imagine an egotistical film major would make if they had the money to cast who they wanted, had the permits they needed to shoot, and a big enough…
Overview Similar to Empire, Star is very much rooted in Black music. However, there are no boardrooms, the stars of the show aren’t rich folk who are established. This show, primarily, seems about the struggle to achieve fame. Trigger Warning(s): Transphobia & Rape Attempt
Overview While stealing from Javier’s sister doesn’t get resolved, we do begin to understand how seriously Javier takes his relationship with Letty. Review (with Spoilers)
Overview There is little point in watching this remake, go see the original. Review (with Spoilers) A part of me has such mixed feelings about all these remakes of various classic movies that now have Black starring characters. Not because I am against seeing diversity, but because I’d rather see money put into original media…
Overview How Koyomi met Shinobu, Oshino, and Hanekawa is the main focus of the movie and honestly, you may be left wondering why this, and the two movies to follow, weren’t just made into a season? Rating: TV Viewing Trigger Warning(s): Blood | Severed Limbs

Overview A new fantasy production begins and while nothing about it is revolutionary, in the least bit, it does seem like the type of show which could gain the same type of dedicated following of shows which are low rated, yet have ardent fans.
Overview Another political show featuring White House drama with the only change being two female leads. Review (with Spoilers) With all the shows out there about politics, ranging from Scandal to House of Cards, it is hard to find something which seems new or fresh. After all, even before the aforementioned shows, there was The…

Overview You know how a movie builds, peaks and usually, ends just before you are sick and tired of it? Well, this episode is just like that and you can only hope future episodes have that same high to low or this is going to be a long journey. Rating: Stick Around Trigger Warning(s): Mutilated…
