Sankarea

Sankarea 13 – (OVA)

Yep, still damn good. I pretty much said what I wanted to see about Sankarea and how sadly underappreciated it is in the Episode 14 post, but this was certainly a fine episode in its own right.  It’s become something of a tradition for series to do OVA episodes about […] Read more

Sankarea – 14 (OVA)

Comments (10)

I’ve seen nothing in the two OVAs to make me question my original conclusion – Sankarea is a damn good show. 2012 was a very good year for anime, and it seems as if Sankarea was very much lost in the shuffle – a good series in a year full […] Read more

Sankarea – 12 (End) and Series Review

As much as Sankarea has stymied my attempts to understand it at every turn, it can be no surprise that it ended in a stubbornly mysterious manner. Sankarea is definitely a series that proved the old “don’t judge a book by its cover” adage (and MGX is certainly another).  With […] Read more

Even by Sankarea standards that was a pretty weird episode. Certain things I’ve come to expect from Sankarea.  First, it’s going to look great – the best-looking TV anime DEEN has ever done, in my view.  And second, the unexpected – because this show is all over the map and […] Read more

Sankarea – 00 (OAD)

“A Tiny Wind” There’s no Sankarea on TV this week, courtesy of the UEFA Tournament going on in Poland and Ukraine.  But we do have this OAD, which acts as a sort of prequel to the series.  And given the sizable detours the show has taken over the last month, […] Read more

Sankarea is a show that stubbornly refuses to behave the way I expect it to. I confess, I’m really not sure what DEEN and director Hatakeyama are are planning – maybe there’s a second season green-lit already for all I know.  But the series has undeniably taking a weird and […] Read more

Yes, in the case of Sankarea I’m an abject hypocrite.  If hypocrisy bothers you, you might want to just stop here… So all the stuff I said about the Ranko episode two weeks ago – about it being an odd choice to do an entire episode about a side character […] Read more

Daddy issues… It’s back to the main plot for Sankarea and no disrespect to Ranko, but it’s not a moment too soon.  There’s so much that still needs to be covered (and I’m not even a manga reader) and so little time to do it.  There’s some buzz that this […] Read more

Warning: Detour ahead. Sankarea has always been a show that wielded its many personalities like a billy club, but never more literally than this week.  It transformed into a first-person narrated rumination by Wanko on the nature of the osananjimi relationship, with most of the episode spent in the distant […] Read more

Excellence all-around on Sankarea this week. This show never stopped being really good, and I think I should say that up front.  I’ve commented often on it’s weirdly discordant nature, which is one of the best things about it.  But what Sankarea did this week was recapture something of the […] Read more
