This week as talked about season 2 of Ajin, and honestly, for both of us, it was lacking. The story carried the poor animation, again and it certainly did answer some questions, but it left us with more or made us feel empty due to the lack of resolution from both questions being answered, and how it ended. With that, if you ventured into watching season 1 then you might as well give season 2 a wa...

The animation was bad but the story was really good. Rick loved the story and could not stop saying good things about it. Jack, on the other hand, had some issues with the story and hated the animation but enjoyed the overall nonetheless. Luckily there is a season 2 so that does bump it up for us but not by much. Next week's choice is season 2 of Ajin: Demi-Human. Have you seen next week's...

What a great choice for this week. It is something that both of us really enjoyed. It had clean animation, book ends, and a confusing story, what more could you want? It is a short movie but it is one that you need to pay attention to or you will miss something, especially with how it starts off and the progression of the end. It also makes you think and look differently at your dreams it is well...

What a choice this week was. It had bad voice acting and dialog a story that was just bad and an ending that left you scratching your head. But at least it was an ending. They also had some funky music going on throughout the show to accompany the bad acting. A good thing about it though they did make you hate the main bad guy which was a plus even with the bad acting and dialog. Next week's c...

This week's choice was an interesting one in that this one was a favorite of Rick and a disappointment for Jack. There was enough plot armor in this show to kill a whale. And some of it didn't even make sense. But with that being said it did have a beginning and an ending and the art was good. Where Jack and Rick differ is their view on the story and plot. Regardless they are able to laugh...

With these would-be movies being so short they should have been combined into one especially since they could have been easily written to play off of each other. With that being said the movies were good but Memory snow is basically the equivalent to a beach episode and the Frozen Bond is the prequel that felt like it was just there to try and make you feel for Emilia and also gives you a bit of t...

This week's choice causes us to have a love-hate relationship with you sitting on the throne. But overall it still was a good show that had some good music playing in the background. We also took a stab at trying to convey the frustrations that Subaru felt. And to just wrap it all up in a nice wide-open ending. Luckily there is a season 2. Next week's choice is a movie called Re: ZERO -Sta...

We conclude this week with a movie. Although given the length of the actual movie we both feel it is more along of the lines of an OVA. The story after the first 30 minutes which is basically a recap of the series, it starts picking up steam delivering some good story and good animation while also giving you more detail about the goblins. This is something that we both liked but if you have not se...

This week's choice was a gritty one and we both thought it was really good. But viewers be warned as this there are graphic images shown that will offend some people. Goblin Slayer follows, well, Goblin Slayer as he slays, you guessed it, goblins. But the story is much deeper than that. You learn about the horrors of what goblins really are and that he is a true hero even when others do not th...

Soul Eater was a show for the books! In that, it was a 51-episode anime, and the ending was so flimsy that it a piece of paper could cut through it. Despite that the show was entertaining and it could be followed easily. It was not thought provoking and some of the characters were annoying. But for the most part, they stayed true to their character even with a ridiculous ending. Because when fight...

Even though it was licensed by GKids it was nowhere near the quality it should have been. The story was decent and it did have book ends but the differences between subs and dubs were massive. Additionally, there are some points where it was one that made you scratch your head and go well that was kind of pointless. But it still had a decent overall story. We also announced on the podcast that we...

The Premise for this story seems like a good idea until it is actually put into play at that then it kinda all falls apart. There are some comedic parts to the show and Rick found it pretty enjoyable with decent anime and a build-up that was good till a point for Jack. There is one thing that we do both agree on and that is that the animation was good and the ending was left wide open. Next week&#...

Origin is one movie where it turned out better than we were expecting but it still fell short of what we were hoping for. But for a post-apocalyptic world destroyed by a genetically modified forest on a moon, you really expect too much it was a nice change of pace from the normal. One of the biggest things that we found funny was that Agito for about half the time was yelling out Toola all the whi...

This was a movie that was well worth the watch. There is a lot that happens in this movie with a deeper meaning. With the aspects being reflective of us as a whole. The character No Face was a character that could be any of us showing what being gluttonous can do to someone. If you have not seen this movie then you should because it has a deeper meaning not just for how we act but in everything. N...

The show was good for what it was although it would have been better if it was a 2 season show rather than 1 season. It has a good and solid start with a rather weak lackluster finish that did not leave a good taste in your mouth but even with that, it is a show that is worth the watch nonetheless. It even reminded and urged Jack to play some RTS games like he used to back in the day from how the...

We liked that it was a different take on the Brolly story. The story was well it was a Dragon Ball Super it had fighting and some comedy mixed in what more could you want from this? It delivers what you expect and not much more beyond that. But it does give you some different views on everyone which is a good thing. Next week's choice is a series called Record of Grancrest War. Have you seen n...

The show is a great one if you are just starting on your journey of anime. However, if you have been a fan of the genre for a long time then this may feel a little cookie cutter for you as it did for Jack. The plot is easy to follow and easy to figure out with no real twists or turns. The animation though is good and it most certainly does give the sense that there will not be a season 2 since it...

Although it was a good choice by Jack it did have its moments and not all of them were good with that being said it was a good show. The store while it did feel like it was jumping around and caused us to make sure we were not missing anything luckily we did not. Additionally, on the plus side, it does answer some of the quests that were left. Next week's choice is a series called Grimoire of...

This week was another great choice and it was a really nice change of pace. The animation was beautiful and the story was beautifully told. It also had very subtle messages and lessons in the show. We both feel like this show is well worth the watch if not for the story but for the scenery itself. Next week's choice is a series called Witch Craft Works. Have you seen next week's choice or...

This week's choice was a good one. Although it did leave us with some questions about everything as well as whether or not there will be a second season. We think there will be especially with how hard they pushed for season 2 at the end. But the series also leaves us worried about if it is going to follow a similar path to that of the Magical Girl Raising Project. How do you all think it will...

This was without a doubt funny as heck for both of us. It is thoroughly enjoyable and was well worth the wait and it picks up right where the series left off. While it may feel like an extended episode we felt the length was good and it hit all the right points. With that being said the only shortcoming for this would be that there are some points where because of what was going on we had to rewat...

Campione! was not quite what Rick had remembered it being but the series as a whole was good overall. One of the main draws of this show is that they talk about Mythology and really highlight that knowledge is power, especially for our pro-tag Godou. If there is one gripe we have with the series it is the jumping around and or referencing things that we have not seen or had no knowledge of. But de...

This week's choice was both good and bad. While season 1 was good for both of us season 2 was... well it left much to be desired. Season 1 had a good story that could be followed and kinda reminded us of other shows. At least for Jack that is. Season 2 should have been cut down to the last 2 episodes and turned into an OVA. There was really no story just an entire season of fillers. Next week&...

The anime story was short and quick-paced which is exactly what it needed to be. We both felt it was good but could have been better. One drawback of it was the heavy obvious innuendos. With a second season coming out next it was definitely a nice refresher on the series in preparation for it. That being said while it was a good show the comedy was plentiful it was just lacking in comparison to th...

This was another great choice this week. And we both actually agree that it is a great series with a special and a movie. It gives you different views of the same emotion because love is not the same for every and everyone has their own story. And what really ties this all in together is the beautiful animation, great voice acting, and astounding music. Next week's choice is a series called Ho...
