Omae wa Mada Gunma wo Shiranai
Innitial Thoughts It looks like an horror anime but in MAL it says comedy, school so... Since it was only 3m I cannot say much. Gonna watch it. Probably one of those that going to grab 3/4 episodes and then watch it one go.

Recommend it? I cannot honestly say so... this one could go either way but since it's a 3m series I bet will not far well...

I can't say I enjoy but I didn't play the game or watch the previous animes. So I won't recommend to anyone. I am going to try later when more episodes are out.

Golden Kamuy
I really like the anime. That fighting sequence in the beginning was really nice BUT that CGI on the bears was pure crap. IF the CGI is going to be like that it will turn off a lot of people.

For an anime that was one of the most eagerly waiting I really hope the improve on the CGI unless it will be deem crap.


Recommend without any reservation BUT the darn CGI... :\ Either 7.5 or more.





A20514-1457817201.1517449471Sword Art Online: Alternative Gun Gale Online

I've been watching Sword Art Online (the first season) and I am currently watching the second season (and already disliking it). This one they change the pace and it seems better than the original. Maybe it was because of the team behind it's different because the creator realized what failed in SAO? Don't know. Sounds good UNLESS they screw and go the same way as SAO
Recommended for newcomers or for fans of SAO. Rating above 7 but less than 8.

Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Teito Genwaku Kitan
Good animation and art ( I like this kind of stuff) and don't get me wrong I enjoyed the premise. The all forbidden books that gives vibes away....

BUT I think this is not going to work out as an anime because the first episode gave nothing unfortunally. AND my belief is that it's going the writing are not going to be provided... and it seems it's going to go kind of romance instead of mystery and such.. BUT I could be wrong. Either way, I recommended with reservations. Either rating of 6.5 to 7. Unless they really screw.. then worse than 6.

Piano no Mori

This sounds and the first episode really deliver an interesting take on two boys with different backgrounds who want to be pianists. But it's quite good and interesting. Let us hope it delivers


Recommend to anyone who enjoys slice of life mix with music. Rating above 7.5 but less than 8.

This show is quite strange but I kind of like it. I hope it doesn't turn out like Kokkuku which interested me in the beginning then was boring as hell.

Recommend with reservation until I watch a couple more episodes. This show either is going down with less than 6.5 or if it stays like Matrix I bet the rating will be above 7.5.



A20543-2616092023.1518107397Cutie Honey Universe
Well, this series follows Honey (again - there are at least 4 or 5 old animes - back from the 70's). It's action oriented plus with some ecchi elements. Josei as well. She changes more times of clothes than Sailor Moon! There are those that say (and they are not wrong) that this was the first magical girl.

It's very weird I must say but probably because I've not watch any of the previous series... Unfortunately there is no nudity (but could have).


I cannot recommend the series to anyone unless you wanna try some Honey series. I am not going to watch it (unless something changes - which I highly doubt). Rating less than 6.5 I bet.


A20578-1437735215.1520139547 Fumikiri Jikan
This a 5m anime about youth love. It has comedy and Its slice of life. BUT I think it's going to be also Shoujo AI since in the first ep one of the girls declared to the others.

Recommend to try after all it's only 4m long each episode. But as other less than 5m its never going to have a great rating. Less than 7 of rating.

Unless you watch and enjoyed Isekai Restaurant or other kind of shows with food and imagery I say you are not going to enjoy this.
This is more the same. Relaxing food anime.

Recommend? See above.
I am going to try one more episode or two to see where this is going but unless something happens I am going to drop it because I am disliking food anime where nothing happens. No character development no nada. The one I truly enjoyed was Sweetness and Lightning but that one had a purpose. The connection between a father and a daughter plus a bit of romance.


A20481-2033005400.1516665459Layton Mystery Tanteisha
This show is about a girl solving problems. It was really interesting show but it's a bit childish look and feeling. I will continue watching. It calmed me.

Recommend it? Yes to anyone who wants a calming relaxing anime with mixing elements. Will not give a rating because its branded as a kid show and I bet a lof people are not going to watch it.

Interesting story about technology gonna bad and evolution turn a 180ยบ route where IA mix with nature thus leading humankind into the brink of extinction. But those CGI elements are really bad and I sincerely wanna drop out BUT... Let us see what this 3D mechas can bring us...

Cannot recommend to anyone. Those CGI and 2D elements turn off most people off. Unless the story is great this series is bound to fail. Less than 6.5.

High School DxD Hero
Unless you watch the previous series don't bother.
Ecchi & action at it's best. Probably one of the best ecchi/nudity shows ever.
You know why? Because the boobs in this show matter. They have a purpose... Yeah I know - but they do.

Steins;Gate 0
Unless you watch the previous anime, don't bother here. Is as good? It's pretty  soon to tell but I am enjoying it. All characters are great. It's a different timeline which even helps newcomers BUT I advice to watch the previous anime.

Butlers: Chitose Momotose Monogatari
I honestly didn't enjoy or even felt connected with the show. A lot of similar characters with no real qualities or differences to be frank.

Cannot recommend this anime to anyone - unless you want to see cute guys doing something?

Last Period: Owarinaki Rasen no Monogatari
This show was quite interesting as a fantasy setting where a group of people fight monsters. A lot of characters and such in the first ep but nothing too fancy. Probably gonna be one of my drop since it didn't captivated me. Action scenes were not that good. The characters althought different remind me of others in others shows...

Cannot recommend to anyone unless you want to watch a show with cute group doing cute things/fights. I predict this one will have a rating of less than  6.5.
