This week’s PLatium End was a Saki episode. after 8 weeks, it’s probably time we got to know the second main character a little better. If any of you have been following along with my Platnum Ed posts, you might have a pretty good idea about how I would feel about a Saki episode. Strap…

The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep8- Learning to Let Go
Every week I sort of play this little game in my head, trying to tally up points so I can figure out which episode I liked less. The right Beyond the Tricornered Widow or PLatinum End. It’s a bit of a rough season as far as episode reviews go, I’m not gonna lie. But this…

Platinum End ep 7- Saki Saves the Day
There’s a sort of tradition with the episode reviews on this site. Whenever I get a bit too snarly for my own good, the series puts me back in my place by immediately proving me wrong. Last week, I had a bit of fun at Saki’s expense, because I found her character fantastically useless in…
The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep7- Dream Team

The Solitary Castle in the Mirror – Manga First Impression
Once you decide that fan translations are ok, it’s difficult to stop. Yup, The Solitary Castle in the Mirror is another manga that hasn’t quite been officially licensed yet. It’s actually based on a novel that might have an official translation. I’m afraid I didn’t do my homework there. The original title is Kagami no…

Platinum End ep 6- Another Fakeout
Sadly this week’s episode of Platinum End was nowhere near as funny as last week’s. I still giggled at Mirai’s random premonition but that was mostly because of how out of nowhere and non-sequitur it was. I guess that explosion was kind of funny as well. Oh and Mirai got all high and mighty with…
The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep6- What Goes Up
Last week might have been my favourite episode of The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window and I said as much. I figured it could be a good sign that the second half of the series would be a bit more to my taste. The tone and writing are pretty inconsistent which gets on my nerves…

The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep5- Daddy Issues
The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window is slowly settling as one of those shows I watch despite of itself. Like I know all the flaws in this series. There are quite a few. And I wouldn’t say anything in it makes up for those flaws. It just hasn’t annoyed me enough to break through the…
