An Ode to the Lost and Fallen.

Allen takes on Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!, a show that does something a bit rare; cover the lives of people who did not get together with the targets of their affections. And it's fantastic -- the show, that is, not that the girls in here didn't win the big love game, but it's a hugely sympathetic show altogether. I'm certainly not one to argue, as we're in the middle of synchroing this one.

And that's that for this week. See you again next Monday.

It's The Day of No Moves...

Well, looks like we don't have anything this week. Allen's been off and I've had pretty much almost all of my weekends eaten up by social obligations. But that's life for you.

We'll try again next week. See you all then.

Inyo, Inyo the Magical Marine....

Allen takes on Ultramarine Magmell and finds it catastrophically terrible. Still not a good record for Manhua, supposedly.

And that's that for this week. See you again next Monday.

The Cosmos Is Full Of Stars.

Allen watched Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos: The Movie, and... well, he wasn't any more impressed with it than Tim was the original TV series (back when we synchroed it.) Well... maybe a little bit more impressed, as he ranked it one more than Tim (we) did. Given that the original manga was a bit on the odd side (though certainly progressive in some aspects for its time... maybe), it possibly never really had a chance.

And that's that. See you again next week.

Power-Levelling At Its Finest....

I don't really know what I was expecting, but Chillin' in Another World With Level 2 Super Cheat Powers is not very good. The lure of Kugimiya might be strong, but clearly it wasn't enough to save this one. I am honestly curious whether star power is used to save an anime in the same manner than western movies tend to do sometimes, although with the level (ha!) that Isekai tends to be unleashed in Japan, maybe I'm just overthinking it. But yeah, this is as generic and self-indulgent as they come, so I would really not bother recommending this.

And that's that for this week. See you again next Monday.

Oh Deer Lord....

Allen isn't really all that impressed with The Deer King, mostly because as much as movies and series are encouraged to "show, not tell", he thinks the movie should at least tell him something.

And that's that for this week. Next Monday, we might walk one well-trodden path again. See you all then.
