Kiddy Grade: Pastry women, Space Bigots and Juvenile Alcoholics change the spy game

Kiddy Grade may sound like some hentai grading system for child molesters, but it’s actually the title of an anime series that follows the exploits of a pair of special agents in an anti-terrorist organization in the far future where mankind has left earth and now occupies many terraformed planets out in distant space. Eclair acts the series primary protagonist working in tandem with her hacker partner Lumière as her singular grounding element and buzzkill as the pair take n tasks for the GOTT’s elite… Continue reading →

Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple – Busty lasses in glasses conspire with Aliens for conquest

Posted on by

So I went through my semi-weekly Netflix tantrum wanting to have something that would actually be worth slapping my eyes against and after a few… disappointments that we can discuss later, I ran into this thing called Kenichi. A kick mocked for his wobbling weak knees makes a stand for justice… and a big boobed hottie with glasses by throwing himself into martial arts. Kenichi is inducted into an eccentric training hall housing masters of weapons, muay tai, karate, kung fu and more, but with… Continue reading →

Hetalia Axis Powers: As Batsh*t as a Belfry after a Buffet

(This is the opening for the first episode. Make of it what you will. I almost went out to buy it that day until I saw the credits roll a few minutes later.) Hetalia is just weird as hell. There. I said it. I would say it again, if I had to. Don’t let that put you off though, that doesn’t mean that it’s bad. It’s brilliantly funny in many ways, it’s just that the length of each episode is laughably short leading to a… Continue reading →

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood – One amazing series deserves a better one

I was wrong. You heard it here first. I was hesitant to approach the new Fullmetal series simply because I didn’t care for a lengthy, watered down version of possibly the best anime series in decades to be subjected to the soulless conveyer belt of anime reboots. Like the hideous reboot wringer Tenchi Muyo went through. Brotherhood is so much more than that… SO much more. It travels in the same circles as the original series, but with massive difference in depth and a larger,… Continue reading →

Phantom: A Requiem for Bullshit and Growth Spurts

So time heals wounds, it doesn’t heal dissatisfaction meaning that Phantom isn’t really the kind of thing to turn a frown upside down… Phantom was based off of a DVD game or something originally and it was adapted into an anime. I’d look into it more earnestly, but I’m so displeased with the series that I don’t care for combing its foul depths. It has a lot of impressive working parts, but it’s held together with loose threads and good intentions. The action is better… Continue reading →

Dragonaut: The love of a whiner for a Girl/Alien/Dragon/Spaceship/Thing

(Even the fucking opening sounds like its on vacation…) So Witchblade was a cool series with a weak ending based off of a decent enough comic series. The artwork stood out a BREAST above the rest because the case mainly consisted of curvy, massively breasted women in frenzied, jiggling combat. In all due honesty, I didn’t have a problem with that. Unsurprisingly, neither did a lot of guys. Guys who bought into the series like hotcakes for the erm, “artistic integrity” and all. That is… Continue reading →

Summer Wars: Video games SAVE the world? Tell me more…

Posted on by

(Trailer for Summer Wars’ english language dub) As usual, coming out of left field is Daison! With something I actively avoided when the ads for it showered the internet in the scarce days before its release. Looked like some Digimon-type thingy. That’s a damn pity because aside from it being one of Mad House’s finest projects to date, it’s one of the most amazing nerd anthems ever conceived. Tears streamed down my cheeks like twin waterfalls of joy as math nerding, video games and the… Continue reading →

D.Gray-Man: Germans do war with model kits!

So D.Gray-man… Ugh, I can’t… I… D.Gray-man is the stupidest name for anything since “Heat Guy” and I’m already tired of writing it. For the remainder of this blistering rant I will refer to it as “Skittles”, because it’s as applicable as whatever the hell they intended for pun purposes, vague historical references or whatever ze fuck inspired the name. Wash your lederhosen and steam that rice because we’re about to discuss rich bastardization of European history and Christian mythology, namely: SKITTLES (for actual title,… Continue reading →

Vexille: Vile vexing vullshit!

(Trailer for Vexille, FYI they’ll take your pride too. That goes with the rest of the package when they hijack your body.) Synthetic life has always been a powerful element of science fiction. Man-made creations integrating themselves into society and the moral applications of creating life become more varied and amazing as years press on such as Blade Runner, to Terminator 2, to The Matrix and so on. In each amazing chapter of new science fiction there’s changes as wondrously epic as their world shattering… Continue reading →

Eden of the East: Saving Japan? There’s an app for that.

(The opening throws a lot of weird things at you. Be warned, the contents are weirder than they appear. Cellphone conspiracies, Naked gunmen, dogs with wings, Penis hunters and other stuff.) See the first episode HERE. Not many things that start with naked men and have at least two story specific uses of a phallus can keep me watching so excitedly. Er, wait, I mean, I think it’s “neat” and there’s a lot of “wang“. Or… wait, no let’s just get started before I’m totally… Continue reading →
