Hello kids! Are you having an appropriately frightening day? I’m bad with time zones, maybe it’s November 1st already for you… Unless you’re reading this post much after it’s publishing date though, it’s probably close to Halloween! Happy Halloween! Last year, I decided to bring you all a collection of Japanese Urban Legends for your…
Genre: Supernatural, Magical Girl, Mystery, Action, Gothicness Episodes: 12 Studio: Gainax A good book is a thing of wonder. It can allow you to meet extraordinary people and travel to unknown realms. A great book, is pure magic! But have you ever heard of Phantom Books? These mystic tomes have been created with such mastery,…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Full disclosure, it’s Friday evening. I started a new visual novel last night and I just can not wait to finish this post so I can slip on my soft onsie, pour myself a glass of wine, and dive right back into it. That shouldn’t affect…
For those not familiar with the expression, fridge horror is when something really awful is implied by the plot but never felt with directly by the narrative so the horror of it all only hits you after a while, if you stop to think about it. I don’t think I’m shocking anyone when I say…
Have you noticed that a lot of horror stories go along the same premise: i.e. mankind was the real monster all along. I mean, they’re not wrong but…
Genre: Dystopian, horror, science fiction, romance Episodes: 25 Studio: A-1 Pictures It seems pretty clear that humans are destined to muck things up. Whether individually or in large groups, we seemed determined to make every mistake for ourselves before we learn a single thing. And let’s face it, we manage to learn the wrong lessons…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff I have no clue what’s going on here. Not with the episode I mean, with me. Also with the episode… This was a gibberish filled non episode brimming with melodrama. You know, everything I don’t like. Except for gibberish, in the right circumstances it can be…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff I have a feeling most people jumped ship on this anime at episode 12. The hiatus really did make it look like it wasn’t going to come back. I get it, but this is why you should read my review! How else are you going to…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff The show is back…. Yay! I mean the episode was…we’ll get into that in just a bit…but I had gotten into the show and when it was announced that the last 4 episodes were going to be on Amazon prime, I got a little worried. Thankfully,…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Well well well…. Isn’t this fun. Angels of Death just managed to disprove most of my assumptions yet leave my base theory intact. I gotta say, we’re on something of a roll here. The last few episodes have been pleasantly ambiguous. Now that’s an expression I…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff This is frustrating. Here we are, episode 11 and I still can’t tell you whether this show is good or bad. My original post title was going to be, “Down to the Wire” since I assumed this was a 12 or 13 episode season but I…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff I’ve been on a business trip for most of the week. This means no Buddy, no anime and very little sleep. For those of you who aren’t forced to go on those and think they sound like fun, let me tell you right now, they are…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Guys, I just want Zack to be O.K. again. I’m tired of him being all wounded and slow and bleedy. I want him to be fine and full of energy. I want him to get annoyed and amused for reasons only he understands. He’s already bled out…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Once again I get the sinking feeling that I’m doing Angels of Death a great disservice by attempting an episode by episode review. By now, it seems pretty clear that this is the type of story that has to be considered as a whole to be…
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff I literally just finished this weeks episode. I got home form work, watched Harukana then Angels of Death. I’m not sure if this insta-reviewing is the way to go. Honestly, I’m not even entirely sure what to make of today’s episode yet. (Matt expressed a similar…
