Do you want to hear something really interesting? Apparently, Alzheimer’s doesn’t erode memories of music. The studies on the subject are still rather recent so the mechanisms behind it all remain mysterious. As you can imagine this finding has renewed interest in MEAMs or Music-Evoked Autobiographical Memories. The moments we associate to music stay anchored…
Genre : Cyberpunk, Sports!, action, cool Studio: TMS Entertainment As the season is winding down we’re getting some unbalanced weeks. For instance, Grancrest is over but I haven’t picked anything to replace it yet so you’re getting my Megalo Box episode review a little early this week. I’ll also be back a bit later in…
Genre : Cyberpunk, Sports!, action, cool Studio: TMS Entertainment Just when I thought I was out…they drag me back into the BL speculation. If you don’t want us to get the wrong idea maybe don’t have Yuri break up with his girlfriend over Joe. Then get all warm and fuzzy with his ex’s brother in…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political Studio: A-1 Pictures All things considered I guess this was exactly how this show would end…
At some point, excitement hits a point of diminishing returns. Any good narrative needs to know when to take a little break and give the audience a chance to breathe. Or else, little by little, consequences start to loose their impact and you risk making viewers Jared and too exhausted to care.
Genre : Cyberpunk, Sports!, action, cool Studio: TMS Entertainment Last episode ended on possibly the best cliffhanger we’ve seen from Megalo box (I’ve been hanging off cliffs all season…) and I was genuinely curious to see what Joe would do. He’s still essentially a brick, by that I mean a narrative foundation with no significant…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political Studio: A-1 Pictures I had to actually look up how many episodes A Record of Grancrest War is slotted for because I cannot see how they are going to just wrap things up next week. Admittedly it wouldn’t be out of character for this series to just stop mid…
I think I may finally have gotten that filler episode I’ve been clamoring for. Steins;Gate 0 took a deep breath this week and just sort of chilled. We didn’t get any major revelations or action sequences, instead the show took a little time to indulge in some silliness, some light-hearted humour and some dubious fan…
Genre : Supernatural, comedy, adventure, harem shonen-ai, rainbows, occasional mullets Episodes: 12 Studio: Doga Kobo William Twining is a realist. He has a responsibility to research and understand the world around him through science and reason. As the heir of the prestigious Twining family, he has been gifted with both brains and looks and it would…
Genre : Cyberpunk, Sports!, action, cool Studio: TMS Entertainment The last few episodes of Megalobox really renewed my interest in the series. I was truly looking forward to this week and the resolution of that cliffhanger ending with the mob guy that looks like he could be a decent boxer too. I wasn’t too sure…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political Studio: A-1 Pictures I don’t know guys, the last few episodes have highlighted the frustrating inconsistency and disregard for plot integrity that have plagued A Record of Grancrest War throughout the season. And this one is no better. Although it did have it’s moments it did seem like a…
At this point in my life, I’ve made my peace with the fact that I’m John Snow… I know nothing. I’ve read a few reviews for Steins;Gate 0 that accuse it of being very poorly written drivel relying entirely on nostalgia. That may be true, after all, what do I know? All I can say…
Genre : Cyberpunk, Sports!, action, cool Studio: TMS Entertainment Now that’s more like it. I’m not sure whether I should credit Mikio for Megalo Box’ recent return to form or the fact that these match centric episodes mostly cut out the kid, but this was another thoroughly enjoyable episode. I’m looking forward to seeing how…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political Studio: A-1 Pictures It’s finally summer here in Montreal. Has been for a whole 2 days! Next week is suppose to be jacket whether again but right now it’s down right simmering. I just looked it up, it’s 79F. The one upside to Quebec’s ridiculous heatwave is that we…
I decided to just stop assuming things in Steins;Gate. What’s the point? I mean sure, episode 7’s ending brought up so many questions, memories, feelings! This time surely, they’ve overplayed their hand. If it gets resolved in the first scene as it usually does, that’s going to be just as cheap and hollow as the…
