As I mentioned last week, even though there is a Tolkien level amount of detail surrounding Nen in the universe of Hunter x Hunter, I was often a bit disappointed by the abilities themselves. They are often not particularly well defined and some have changed quite a bit throughout the series. Seriously, how did Hisoka…
Genre: Horror, gore, action, supernatural Episodes: 13 Studio: Gonzo How much do you know about vampires? Can you list their powers? Do you know how they’re made? Can you describe legendary vampire hunter Hellsing? Wrong, wrong and wrong! Vampires, don’t turn into bats, they turn into flowing masses of nightmare fuel. They don’t care about…
It’s a great credit to this show that I find most of the “least favorite” questions very difficult to answer. This week was no different.

On the one hand, it’s really nothing more that classifying superpowers and I love classifications but for all the detail and structure available, the actual dividing of powers is rather imprecise with a lot of the categories being very similar. The execution…

By now you may have realized that I have some pretty defined views on what constitutes a villain and because of that this week was a bit more challenging than I first expected.
Genre: Supernatural, action, drama, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: Bones It’s hard to be god. Or more precisely, to be A god. Yato might have fallen on some hard times, largely forgotten by all and abandoned even by his own regalia, he scrapes by best he can without even a single shrine to his name but a…
Genre : Slice of Life, Comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: EMT Squared Ryo Sakaguchi (Gucchi to his friends) is your typical high school boy. Well your typical high school anime boy at least. He’s tall, handsome, friendly and popular. Gucchi’s high school life should be a breeze, right? But Gucchi has a secret that’s becoming increasingly difficult…
I’m starting to see a pattern with these questions. I wish we could have seen more people as teachers. Not that Stein isn’t great but there was some opportunity for interesting interactions
Technically, this week would be a repeat since my favorite main happens to be a Zoldyck but luckily, I have plenty more to choose from. The Zoldyck family as a whole is full of interesting members and their staff is pretty awesome too. I hope I get a chance to talk about Canary at some…
