It’s Friday Fun Day! And if nothing else, Visual Prison certainly is the most fun show I am reviewing this season. Oh wait, I actually publish these on Saturdays. This whole intro doesn’t work anymore. Well, that’s kinda par for the course when it comes to this blog. I hope you all enjoy my random…

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…
Visual Prison ep.6 – The Power of Makeup
The real title for this week’s episode of Visual Prison is Shangri-la of Cruelty. I don’t think I could ever top that. I think it’s also the title of the OP song. In any case, it’s the best most ridiculous title ever and we should take a moment to appreciate the emo word salad that…
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…
Visual Prison ep.5 – The Day He Got A Mullet
Guys, we need to talk. I know I joke around a lot about anime trying to brainwash me into being attracted to mullet. And Visual Prison is certainly guilty of that as well. 50% of the main band have mullets. But seriously, please stop getting Mullets. On and wolf cuts, are just mullets. They’re the…
Platinum End ep 5- Everybody Hates Metropoliman
I’m feeling much better this week. And thank you so much to everyone who reached out to see how I was. You guys are honestly so sweet. I was just lacking sleep but I caught up! Now I’m super happy and productive. Also a little hungry for some reason. Let’s see if that affects my…
Visual Prison ep.4 – All About Eve
There’s a random naked guy in the opening tag of this week’s Visual Prison. He’s one of the Eclipse guys and there is no clue in the scene to explain why he’s naked. It’s quite surreal. No one mentions it or reacts to it at all. And after the opening credits, the show doesn’t even…
Platinum End ep 4- How Blasé
Maybe it’s because I’m really tired today but I did not care about anything that happened in this week’s Platinum End. Not at all. And I would argue that we could have just skipped this episode altogether and not missed anything. Maybe even have been a smidge better off. Ok, I’m hearing myself in my…
Visual Prison ep.3 – Oh Brother!
Visual Prison is getting more ridiculous with each passing episode. I mean that as the loving compliment it is. Although I figure it will be very detrimental to the overall rating the show receives. It works for me though. And if you have a healthy sense of humour and appreciation for kitsch, it may work…
Platinum End ep 3- Amore
I really wanted to name this week’s Platinum End post: Butt Wings Rides Again but let’s face it, that’s what I want to name all my Platinum End posts. And that might get confusing…
Visual Prison ep.2 – Panya
Obviously, Visual Prison is not a show that will appeal to the masses. It’s a rather self-indulgent parody that’s a bit too soft to really be bitting. You know.., ’cause vampires… Unsurprisingly though, I like it. I haven’t been having much luck with my seasonal picks and this one is exactly what I was hoping…
Platinum End ep 2- With Great Power
This week on Platinum End, we learn about unusual wing placement!
Visual Prison ep.1 – Concert
Ok, wait so where do I start. I have so much to say. Visual Prison sort of got me by surprise…although it was also kinda what I expected. If anyone could realistically expect such a spectacle as this first episode of Visual Prison! But wait before we get into that, there’s Funimation. Oh boy… this…
Platinum End – A Messy Start
I’m not gonna lie, Platinum End was one of the series I was looking forward to this season and now I’m not so sure anymore. I’ll be honest guys, I did not like this first episode very much. Well, I didn’t hate it either, that’s why I didn’t drop the whole thing but I’m wary…
Dear Noman – Manga First Impression
I think it’s time I changed my opening paragraph for these as I’ve been sticking to manga impressions for a while now. I guess Dear Noman could count as both since it’s a manga from a pixiv toon. So that’s like a webcomic, right? Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided…
