Made in Abyss: Golden city of the scorching sun – Episode 10

I feel like Linkin Park’s “Burn it to the ground” is playing through my mind throughout this episode.

Poor … Continue reading Made in Abyss: Golden city of the scorching sun – Episode 10 →

Made in Abyss: Golden city of the scorching sun – Episode 9

With this season of Made in Abyss having 12 episodes that means that after today’s episode we’ll be three quarters done. I wonder if they plan to cover the entire arc in the remaining episodes.

Bleach Recap #6: Storming Las Noches

When people talk about Bleach, they often mention the Hueco Mundo arc as the point where the story started slipping in quality.

My issue with late sequels

A short post today since it’s a billion degrees this week and I have other stuff I need to get done. This season we’ve got sequels to Danmachi, Overlord and The devil is a part-timer, amongst others. Danmachi last had a season 2 years ago which is relatively recent, but still a while ago. Overlord … Continue reading My issue with late sequels →
