About this blog

I only review anime series that I have watched in their entirety.  I do not review based on watching a few episodes.

Review: Killing Bites

Review: Killing Bites (Non-Spoilery) Season Aired: Winter 2018 - 12 episodes MAL Link: Killing Bites I watched it at: Kawaiifu   Review: KIlling Bites is an R-rated B-movie. It's the kind of outrageous sex and violence filled schlocky sci-fi grindhouse you might have found on direct-to-video or late-night cable once upon an age ago.  The kind of show where you see somebody casually pick up their own chopped-off arm and beat their opponent to de

Review: The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent (Non-Spoilery) Season Aired: Spring 2021 - 12 episodes MAL Link: The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent I watched it at: Funimation   Review: The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent invites the viewer into a world of enchantment, romance and fantasy. It is a pleasant enough world, inhabited with characters who generally seem kind and chivalrous. There's a bit of danger to be dealt with, which provides some small

Review: Shadows House

Review: Shadows House (Non-Spoilery)   Season Aired: Spring 2021 - 13 episodes MAL Link: Shadows House I watched it at: Funimation   Review: Shadows House invites the viewer into a world of mystery, suspense and intrigue. I did not know what I was getting into when I started this series, but I was quickly hooked and binged the 13 episodes straight through. My major complaint right now is simply that there was not more of it.     Th

Review: Horimiya (Non-Spoilery)   Season Aired: Winter 2021 - 13 episodes MAL Link: Horimiya I watched it at: Funimation   Review: Horimiya invites the viewer into a world of teenage romance, essentially.  It's a romantic comedy focusing on an ensemble cast of characters all going through the process of growing up and dealing with emotions. The art direction on this series immediately got my attention with its unique bright pop. It is a visuall

Anime Series Ratings

Nine-Tailed Fox Anime Series Ratings These are all the series I have watched and the scores I gave them.  Link to my review is provided, if I made one for the show. I only rate anime series that I have watched in their entirety that season.  Usually I binge the series when the season is complete to get the full impact. My ratings system is based on how pleased my brain is with the viewing experience.  There is a lot of anime out there to watch and much of it is terribly forgettab

Review: Adachi and Shimamura (Non-Spoilery)   Season Aired: Fall 2020 - 12 episodes MAL Link: Adachi and Shimamura I watched it at: Funimation   Review: This is a Yuri anime.  Yuri is a Japanese jargon term for characters, themes, content and a genre involving lesbian relationships or female homoeroticism.

Review: Goblin Slayer

Review: Goblin Slayer (Non-Spoilery) Season Aired: Fall 2018 - 12 episodes MAL Link: Goblin Slayer I watched it at: Funimation   Review: In fantasy games, goblins are often a low level monster that present an early challenge to players, but are rarely seen again beyond the very early game.   They are good for some early experience, but players typically have no interest in goblins once better options are available. I mean, I personally don't certainly

Now, most anime does require that the viewer suspend their disbelief in order to roll with the fictional story about incredible things.  All good. The problem wit

That's all good. What's not so clear is if
