There are a lot of things that can make a show good. One Punch Man was elevated to new heights by Studio Madhouse’s fantastic job animating it. One Piece’s worldbuilding makes you believe there’s truly a pirate-infested ocean out there. Konosuba wouldn’t be half as good without it’s amazing comedic timing. But as a writer, … Continue reading Kaoru’s Anxiety

Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 8
So after 7 full episodes of build-up we finally get into the fights themselves. I’ve seen a fair bit of discourse on reddit over the weeks about how this show is taking too long to build up and it’s spent 7 episodes on 1 episode of pay-off. I agree with this sentiment in theory, but … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 8

Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 6
Remember how last week I said that this would be the big battle. I lied. I can only apologize. Instead we get a little bit more world building and character introductions. And some fun ones to top it off. Before the episode really gets going we see the different groups go on their different missions. … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 6

Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 5
So as most of you will have noticed, I forgot to write a review next week. I even posted on twitter that it would be there a day later, and then I ended up completely forgetting about it. In my defense, I had a party and I had planned to play Dungeons & Dragons with … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 5

Moving on, we continue more or less where we left off last week. Ramiris showed up to tell them they were in trouble, and … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 3
Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 2
Last week was a little bit of a slow week when it came to things happening. A part of it was just remembering what happened in the previous cour, and the introduction of Veldora to the main cast. Nearing the end the politics started with Gazel and Elalude showing up to talk to Rimuru about … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 2
Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 1
Last season I considered covering the anime Tensura Nikki on a weekly basis. I ended up deciding against it, since it’s a slice of life anime and I figured there wouldn’t be a ton to talk about. In hindsight I think there was more content than I expected, but there’s no use wondering what could … Continue reading Tensura Season 2 (Part 2) – Episode 1
