There are no coincidences in space… The feels were running pretty hot and heavy in this week’s episode of Tekketsu no Orphans, which still has all the earmarks of a story setting up for some major tragedy but has yet to really bring the hammer down. The first requirement for […] Read more
This universe is apparently still in its expansion phase. It was officially announced this week that Concrete Revolutio is going to be a split cour series, though of course if you’ve been following the posts here that will come as no surprise to you. It’s a damn good thing, too, […] Read more
I’m not getting my hopes up, but we may just be headed for an actual climax. That preview message came as something of a shock, and that’s in spite of the fact that I knew full well that next week’s episode is the finale. As I said last week if […] Read more
Same header as last week – shameless in a good way. Nothing else would do it justice. Well, that was fun. No news there – Haikyuu is generally fun. But this was one of those carefree episodes that would come off as cloying or pandering in lesser hands, but Haikyuu […] Read more

It’s just so wrong, yet so right. And just like that, we’re squarely back in the realm of discomfort comedy that Osomatsu-san seems most comfortable inhabiting. The thing about this series is that it isn’t just a bunch of dick jokes and sight gags – though it does have plenty […] Read more
Furuya noticed something about another person? Did that really just happen? The next couple of weeks on Daiya no A figured to be pretty tough. The focus is going to be on two secondary teams while we’re forced to wait on what Seidou’s team is going to look like in […] Read more
