I’m not going to lie to you guys, I’ve sort of checked out from Platinum End. Mirai had this big love speech or something in the latter half of the episode and 30 seconds after it was finished, I couldn’t have told you a single thing he said. And that was supposed to be the…

Fairy Tale Battle Royale – Manga First Impression
Despite everything I wrote, I’m still buying physical manga. For example this first volume of Fairy Tale Battle Royale. You know one thing that’s really nice about having actual physical copies, aside from the no bleu light? It’s being able to lend them out to people. Lately, I’ve turned into something of a mini manga…
Platinum End ep 21- It’s Good We Didn’t Die
There are only a few episodes left to go in PLatinum End and I’m not going to lie, it’s a bit of a drag. I stand by the fact that I think the second cour was a bit better than the first but it’s still not great and the last few episodes have been pretty…
Platinum End ep 20- Spiritless
I have to be honest with you guys, this episode bored me to tears. It might just be my state of mind but I could be bothered to care about anything that happened in Platinum End this week. I don’t even have anything to complain about really. This is going to be a short post.

Platinum End ep 19- False Prophet
Is it just me or was this episode of Platinum End kind of ugly? It wasn’t dramatically different from the rest of the show but the character models seemed to have lost a lot of integrity and they looked really odd to me in some scenes. On top of that, there was very little visual…
The Millionaire Detective – I Don’t Think They Know How Much a Million Is
Titles: The Millionaire Detective – Balance: UNLIMITED Genre: Action, comedy, mystery, science fiction Episodes: 11 Studio: CloverWorks Money can open a lot of doors.

Platinum End ep 18- Playing God
Some of you already know this. I create the gifs that I use as headers for my episode reviews. I particularly like using animated gifs as header images with this blog template. I think it works well and creates some interest on the page. But of course, when reviewing an episode that has just aired,…
Platinum End ep 17- Angel of Death
So uhmmm, I don’t know how to say this. It’s really embarrassing. But I guess I should be honest with you guys. Platinum End is sort of o.k. It’s not good or anything but I’ve seen worse. And like, this episode was the type of thing I would normally bash. It has a certain whiff…
Platinum End ep 16- The Cat’s Out of the Bag
A couple of episodes ago, I predicted that Platinum End had nowhere to go but up. And I would like some type of cookie. I’m not saying the show is good now but it’s better. At least I think so. This particular episode was mostly set up as we are essentially starting over now that…
Platinum End ep 15- Smart Kid
I don’t know if you guys read my review for last week’s Platinum End. The short version is, I really didn’t like last week’s episode. In fact, I decided that I was bound to like whatever was coming up next more because I couldn’t like it less. Well, I’ve now seen what was coming up…

No. 5 – Manga First Impression
I really like science fiction and I don’t think I own any manga that qualifies as that. I guess Dark Dai is a comedy, horror, science fiction but that’s as close as it gets for me. I was hoping that No.5 would open up a whole new genre to explore. I guess I could always…
