Tsuki ga Kirei

❣ type: tv series ❣ eps: 12 ❣ season: spring 2017 ❣ studio: feel. ❣ synopsis: With a new school year comes a new crowd of classmates, and for their final year of junior high, aspiring writer Kotarou Azumi and track team member Akane Mizuno end up in the same class. Though initially complete strangers, a few chance encounters stir an innocent desire within their hearts. A yearning gaze, a fluttering heart—the hallmarks of young love slip into their lives as fate brings their paths to a cross. However, though love is patient and love is kind, Kotarou and Akane discover it is not always straightforward. Despite the comfort they find in each other’s company, heartache and anxiety come hand in hand with pursuing the feelings in their hearts. With the uncertainty of how the other truly feels as well as the competing affections of those around them, the road ahead is unclear. Even so, under the shining light of a beautiful full moon, Kotarou gathers his courage to ask Akane a single question, one that forever changes their quiet relationship. ❣ comments: You would expect this anime to be a mundane, generic romance anime. It’s so much more than that. It’s beautiful, it’s real, and super calming to watch. And it’s actually a romance anime with actual 👏 romantic 👏 progression 👏 by the end. ❣ quote: “Dazai once said, ‘There is such a thing as love in this world. I’m sure of it.’” - Kotarou Azumi

To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.

Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.

It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.

We cannot be silent.

Happy Birthday to King Explosion Murder…I mean Katsuki Bakugo!

There’s going to be a 2nd season of  “How Not to Summon a Demon Lord “ (Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu)

I really loved the first season as its just the type of anime I find myself drawn to. I personally like super strong/overpowered mc’s. It especially is great when the main characetr is “evil” based, even if they aren’t really. If you liked the anime “Overlord” or “The Devil is a Part-timer” you will like this as well!

Vinland Saga (Action, Adventure, Drama, Historical, Seinen)

Aired: Jul 8, 2019 to Dec 30, 2019

Episodes: 24 (Finished Airing)

based on the ending and other speculations, there should be a season 2 in 2021

Rating - R-17+ (Violence)

Synopsis

Thorfinn grew up listening to the stories of sailors that had traveled to Vinland, a place said to be warm and fertile, where there’s no fighting—not at all like the frozen village in Iceland where he was born. Although this, he grew up peacefully with his mother, father, and older sister.

There is a war happening between England and the Danes in which death has become the normal; and the viking mercenaries are loving every moment of it. Allying with either side will cause a massive swing in the balance of power, and the vikings are happy to make names for themselves and take any spoils they earn along the way. 

During all this, Thorfinn seeks to take his revenge and kill the man who murdered his father, Askeladd. 

Anime Plug- Review

I Liked the art style and overall I thought the anime was made very well! It definitely does NOT lack action and gore. So much death and fighting and the vikings are what I would call savages. The main character, Thorfinn, you can kind of see him grow up from 6 years old to about 17. But… I do have one complaint. I feel almost if every other character had a character change or we got to find more of their personalities except for the main character. He was kind of flat. He had the same thing going on with him for the whole thing! Just an angry kid bent on revenge….an edge lord for real. He doesn’t have, in my opinion, any character development. The ending of the season also feel both like “Wow thats crazy” but then also…”oh ok”. I still enjoyed watching it though, i watched it in 3 days (In between watching other animes) 

I’ll give this a rating of 6.5/10 - points off for flat mc

Overall, if you like strong but angry kid main character bent on revenge + war based animes, you’ll like this.

Taichi and Rin learn to grasp the full extent of their powers and familiarize themselves with their new world. From then on starts the journey of heros! 

Anime Plug - Review

It was your average isekai anime where they get transported to a magic world. I love isekai animes but i feel like it was kind of generic. I did enjoy how the females in this anime were really strong and not a drag down. I love to see strong female leads as well! It was fun to watch but it definitely isn’t the best anime i’ve seen. I feel like it was kind of fast pace but I still enjoyed it immensely and finished it in one watch .

I’ll give this a rating of 7/10

Overall, if you like op anime characters and have nothing else to watch, give it a go, you might like it!

Darwin’s Game (Action, Mystery, Shounen) 

Aired: Jan 4, 2020 to Mar 21, 2020 

Episodes: 11 (Finished Airing)

Rating - R-17+ 

Synopsis 

High school student Kaname Sudou receives an invitation from a classmate to play Darwin's Game, a mobile game he has never heard of. He opens the app and is startles when a snake pops out from his screen and bites him on the neck. From there on, he is forcibly made to play in a series of ruthless real life battles where he has to try and survive 

Anime Plug - Review

After finishing the show, I can honestly say that this is a new concept to me - at least from what I’ve experienced. Instead of being brought into a different world like isekai, all the battles happen in real life, in his world, where he actually has to face other people who’ve also incidentally stumbled upon the game! I really liked it and actually started and finished this anime in a single day! The main character has one of those personalities that you can’t help but love! This is also involves one of my favorite things - an OP main character! 

I’ll give this a rating of 9/10 

Overall, if you like animes with game concepts and a strong main character(s), I recommend that you watch this!
