  • Damn, what a movie! I didn’t expect it to be an hour and a half of pure sports with almost no recap.

    Kenma’s point of view was really, really well done and super unique. I COULD FEEL his frustration when the ball slipped and the game ended because of the sweat, which was a tactic he tried to use against Hinata at the beginning to try and cut him off.

    But man, Hinata’s big jump was SO DAMN COOL. I love sports anime, and that scene easily became one of my top 5 moments in sports anime.

    I’ll watch it again at least once or twice just because of that scene

    i liked. since supernatural/mystery is one of my fav genres.

    The atmosphere is reminiscent of* Death Parade* and Kyokou Suiri, focusing on episodic stories of different guests and their dilemmas between life and death and bizarre characters. The protagonist, who we see has intuitive abilities that contrast with her lack of memory, is clearly set to solve or play a significant role in the mysteries of the characters that will appear in the following episodes. The animation is of good quality to me, with consistent character designs. I believe the upcoming episodes will feature more intricate and bizarre stories—at least, I hope so. I hope the show delves deeper into the emotional context of the protagonist. i mean she seems to accept very well her condition, she should be at least scared as Atori said but shows us that everyone is different and face the things in a different way. The pacing is acceptable, although slightly rushed in introducing the concepts, but the clarity in explaining the setting is reasonable.

    I think it’s good so far, the graphics are excellent, it’s almost excessive lol, the characters are great, so this isn’t an isekai, what is it then? The dubbing is so-so, her voice was way too high-pitched!!! “She came from the Royal world and she’s an animator!!! Lol”


  • It’s over, but it was really good following this 100-year Quest. I’ve never read the manga, only followed the anime, and I thought they’d show all 5 dragons to defeat, but we only saw 3—well, 4 with that brief appearance of Ignia. Selene was really clever in losing on purpose to take revenge for her son and even became the leader of the Dragon Eater guild, with her goal being to defeat all the dragons, but that won’t be easy. Natsu and his friends’ journey is far from over, so I’m curious to see how the continuation unfolds, with battles against the remaining 2 dragons and a rematch against Selene. I’d give it an 8.


  • A so-so premiere, but let’s see if it gets better. You can’t really blame the protagonist for wanting to ditch the castle and bail since she didn’t willingly agree to this arranged marriage. Her happiness was hilarious, and from the trailer, it seems like this will be the opposite of the usual: the protagonist will be the pursuer, and the princess will retreat. In most stories, it’s the other way around, with the women chasing and the male leads being indecisive, so this one stands out as different.

    This episode marks the beginning of the final stretch of the anime (only 2 or 3 episodes left). It’s sad that the animation is so far below what the Precure franchise usually offers fans during these last episodes.

    I even thought that Toei was “saving up” now to deliver something more polished at the end, but after noticing the amount of “weird faces” throughout the recent episodes, my perspective changed. I believe Toei isn’t able to deliver anything better simply because the studio doesn’t have the time, and this is the best they can offer at the moment.

    Mirai Days is set to premiere next Sunday, and Idol Precure is already scheduled to have its first episode on February 2nd.

    I think Toei might still pull off a decent final “fight” against Gaou, but they’ll likely divert most of their resources to the new series. Anyway, I hope I “eat my words” and Toei delivers a spectacular show in these last 3 episodes, lol. Hope is the last thing to die, after all.
