TV Series Review: The Chilling Adventures of SJW Sabrina

This is a show that make me lose faith on Netflix and the american people (the ones in charge of shows and such - not in general).

In the first episode of Sabrina, some girl is made fun because she dresses like a boy. Of course it's wrong, no doubt about it and when Sabrina confronts the principal he says that if she can't give her the name of the people he can't do anything - and maybe she(the girl they pick upon) could leave the school to another. Of course this is a wrong posture on a principal or even a human being. But then Sabrina and her black friend who wants to open a Black Panther group to fight White Patriarchy - which Sabrina is supportive. And so, they want to open a new group to fight people who pick on a woman (not people, but women - fuck men)

Then when they can't because the principal is a man and white (they didn't even ask) she conjures a spell scaring him (we don't know for how long - maybe forever) so the vice principal can authorize open that woman group.

I wonder two things - If the prinicipal was a black man - how do they react? It was fault of White Patriarchy?  Or would they say that all black are evil like they hint that all white male are? What about a woman?

This is SJW crap a the highest level and I won't be watching another episode - because after all, I am not supposed to do - because I am white and a male - therefore a evil person who must not watch that show...

What was really interesting - was when Sabrina was taking a bath - she is 15 years old (although our actress is over 19 or even 20) and they film a very interesting side boob ;)

So, the same producers or writers who are all about social justice and feminism they film a "underage" girl partially nude. Sublime.

I was really looking forward to this show, being a huge fan of Sabrina but they really know how to alienate some people. I wonder what other white males watch the show and thought about it. 

Racism, Feminism and other isms are all bad. Racism is not white vs black. Is also black vs white. Feminism in the correct form is giving power to woman to be EQUAL to men. But when you go around and try to be superior than man OR don't care if you step upon on other people - you are going the wrong way. It's like communism saving European countries from fascism and to be worse than them. It's just wrong. 

Enfin, nobody cares. Social Justice Warriors are just wrong. Unfortunately Hollywood is being really taken by storm. Thank the Gods anime and japanese are not.

Anime Review: Cross Ange: Tenshi to Ryuu no Rondo (Fall 2014)

I've seen some praise to this how but most complains. Well I am on not so good side. It's a show that you won't remember two days after watching.

First of all the animation is terrible. If you don't want to have naked scenes then please don't don't do it. Basically every time (and there were dozens) a tit pop off or their genitalia showed it was horrible. They had no nipples whatsoever and the genitalia were non-existent (in both sexes). It was horrible to behold. At times I thought it was a censored version but alas it was not. The censored version had mist and such. The uncensored it was breasts with no nipples and so on. Horrible. Either you do it OR please don't go half way.

The characters are there - Ange it's a good characters. In the beginning she is a snorted high heels princess who turn into the scorn of society and she must deal with it. There are a handful of episodes where they deal with this - her fall - and they turn out okay.

Then the other characters, almost all females - in the beginning hate Ange and then follow her to the end of the world. But I must say, that each one is quite different and a different idea and motive - which felt good.

The male characters are only two. One is the one our main character gets in love and the other is the main antagonist who wants to make Ange her wife. The love counterpart doesn't take that much screen time which was good - I was afraid that he would overlook Ange saving her every time but that didn't happen that often. Unfortunately the ending was not that good.

In this kind of anime, spoilers ahead, you've got your main protagonist who is helped by a lot of people. Either the author/creator kills a couple of the friends of our main protagonist to help her growth or not. In this case, a lot of people died - but usually not that important people or only bad people. There was not good people dying to make Ange grow. It's the typical - everything is fine when it ends fine. She got to defeat the bad guy with the help of all her friends and lover and so on... bah. 

There were a lot of criticism of women depicted here - well yeah. Some "raped"; take advantage of other, cheat, kill, manipulate and so on - so what? Fuck it. If men do it - "They are men - what do you expect" but when woman do it  "The one who created this is a pig, hate women and probably racist  and other vile things".

Grow up snowflake society! 

Women are as crappier as Men.
Black person can be as bad as White person.
And overall - who gives a crap? Aren't we all humans? So we can be 100% bad or 100% good - or any number inbetween. That's what we are. Stop blaming white people. That's also racism you know? And overall - crap. This was done by a Japanese company who doesn't give a crap about SWJ. Thank the anime gods! 

Just one more thing - this script was done by a woman ;)

Anime Review: Fall 2018

The fall is coming and I really expect from it...

Let's compare with Winter it had some interesting choices with good anime Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san; Gakuen Babysitters; Koi wa Ameagari no You ni (Love is Like After the Rain); Overlord 2; A Place Further than the Universe; Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan 2 and Violet Evergarden. So basically 7 good anime.

Regarding Spring I had Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii, Hinamatsuri, Golden Kamuy, Tada-kun wa Koi wo Shinai, High School DxD Hero, Megalo Box, Boku no Hero Academia Season 3, Captain Tsubasa (2018) & Steins Gate. So 8

In the Summer we had Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro, Aggressive Retsuko (ONA), Gran Blue, Hataraku Saibou, Overlord 3, Tenrou Sirius the Jaeger, Shingeki no Kyojin Season 3. So basically 7. 

This new season of Fall we've got some interesting ones but only by the end of the series I can say more. After all we all know Darling in the Franx...

Hinomaruzumou - A Shounen that focus on Sumo.

Karakuri Circus - Another Shounen very alike from Ushio and Tora. Circus and puppet battles.

Irozuku Sekai no AShita Kara - The most beautiful of the season. From PA Works. Slice of Life & Romance (Potential if not ruined to be on my favourite list).

Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet - Really interesting take on Shakespeare tale of Romeu & Juliet.

Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai - Another take on Romance mix with supernatural stuff. So good. (Potential if not ruined to be on my favourite list).

Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken - Some interesting Isekai adaptation. Very interesting main character and world (So far).

Yagate Kimi ni Naru (Bloom Into You) - A Yaoi love story.

Zombieland Saga - Expected a horror show but got a music idol mix with zombies....

Goblin Slayer - Another great isekai - very dark.

And let us see what the mighty Sword Art Online: Alicization brings us....

So basicaly 10 shows I am eagerly waiting.

Thoughts XXXII: What makes something your "Favorite"?

I was wondering this after watching (binge watching is the correct term) Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai. 

Is it a good anime? It's okay. Will be my favourite or 20 spot? Unless something happens - I don't think so. It's a solid 7. But then why I am binge watching when I rate 10 Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu and I cannot binge watch it. Steins Gate, Toradora or even Tsuka Ga Kirei were anime I rated 10 but I didn't binge watch them. I watch a couple of episodes at a time. So why this one I can "binge" and the others no? So what's my favourite?

It's really hard to understand this, would love your feedback but interesting or not, I made a top 20 list and Just because was not in top 20 or 30 for that matter but it's an anime I really liked (didn't enjoy the choice he made - it was very stupid one) and I am always looking forward for an anime that gives me that feeling... so far couldn't find one (although this season Bunny is really hitting that spot)

I am also watching really fast Cross Ange but then again is not an anime I would rate above 7. But it's engaging I think.

Another that made me watch in one go - it was the only one in all my years of consuming anime was Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai. Is it thhe best anime? Not in a hundred years. I gave it a 8 but could easily give 7. It will never be in my top list and it is one anime I will not advise to anyone unless it's very particular request.

So why did I watch it in one go? What makes it more "special"? I really can't understand why this happens in one show and not in another...

My only thought it's - when I am enjoying a show - like toradora per example if I watch it in one go It will not be as rewarding as savoring an ep per day or so. Do you understand? Do you feel that way? It's like I want to prolong that feeling I will never have again (or at least I find another top anime).

Top 20 (or so) Animes (After 500)

Lets talk today about my favourite anime after watching 550 animes... Some will be review here for the first time.

It's hard to pinpoint a top 10 but let us try... Some I would advise to you but others I cannot.

Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku (Now and then , Here and There) made by AIC it's I made a review previsouly and you can read it here but if you don't have the time - this anime earns high marks for pessimism, melancholic and despair factors. It was one of the first Isekai made in 1999 where a boy goes to another world to help a girl. His mind is bend on doing everything good no matter what. He gets beaten up time and again. If you want an anime that afterwards you are going to gaze into a wall deeply then this is anime for you.

After watching it try  Tokyo Magnitude 8.0. This anime is also way depressing as hell. It's slow pace compare with the first but if you want an anime to connect to your characters try this one. You will cry.

Afterwards we've got the movie Hotarubi no Mori e. It's a tale about friendship and old times. Really interesting take on romance and the division between two worlds and at the same time about two people who cannot be in love. Don't know if it makes sense... In terms of art style is way better than the above BUT since it's a movie of 45m you will get attached more to the other tv series characters. Nevertheless - very good. So beautiful and sad.

Violet Evergarden is an orgasm to your eyes. It's beautiful slice of life with some interesting story behind it. You will cry. I cry at least in 4 episodes (the latter ones). It's a story about war and about the ending of a war and the impact they have on people. In this case in a girl that only knew her benefactor who she took orders and to kill. Now she must return to everyday life. It's a story about learning your place and one that most military man who fought in wars go through....Very interesting.

In the other hand if you want romance then Toradora , Rec or Tsuki Ga Kirei are three good choices. One is more comedic feel and it's about the discovery of love, the second is more mature love about two adults living in a adult world while the third is the discovery of the first love. I must say I would prefer the first of the third but cannot choose one of them.

If you want more in terms of action you've got Attack on Titan,  Ushio and Tora (the new), Kill la Kill or Youjo Senki. They are all different. Kill la Kill is the strangest one with very interesting art style with a bit of comedy. If you don't mind a bit of surrealism you are in for a treat. Ushio and Tora is a shounen where a boy and a demon fight alongside against even more evil beings than the demon. They have a bit of comedy but the story is about friendship and strength. Attack on Titan is more action, mystery and more global (since it doesn't focus on a single or two characters but a lot of them. Youjo Senki is a Isekai but your main protagonist is a middle age cold business man transformed into a young 11 year old girl in WW1 worrld with the brains and coldness of the former guy. It's a fight between her and X-Being (God). I know it sounds strange but watch it. You will enjoy it and you will be cheering for her. Btw, you can try Overlord. Another anime where your main protagonist is a evil guy. This second and third season got a lot of attention.

Straight more adult mystery you've got Boku Dake ga Inai Machi. It has a great tv adaption (netflix). If you want a more relaxed gorgeous mystery anime you've got Hyouka. If you ware like me an enjoy Black Metal then watch Detroit Metal City. If you are into a more epic with a lot of background, tactics and such you've got Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu. If instead you want a slice of life you've got Sora yori mo Tooi Basho or Fune Wo Amu.

If you enjoy great artwork and deslike SAO but enjoy that kind of anime with a fantasy setting I would advice Hai to Gensou Grimgar. A Bit darker than other isekais with a hint of slice of life. The artwork is perfect. If you want something that makes you think then you've got Steins Gate or Made in Abyss.  If you just want to laugh you've got Asobi Asobase, Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou or even Saiki Kusuo no y-nan. But my favourite is Konosuba.


This is it from me. As you can see my top list is not ten but probably 20 or so. I would never advice anyone to watch an anime sorely on my taste. I would like to know what you want and I will search it. Maybe it was not for me but I can understand the value and suggest something different for you.

There are also three interesting movies Koe no Katachi, Byousoku 5 Centimeter or Kimi no Na wa. if you don't have the time for a 12 or 24 episode tv series. All three are great and high praised even for non-anime people. The first one is probably my favourite and the one show I would suggest to anyone who never watch any anime but wanna try.

Let's be back at 1000.

Talking About Anime - 500 Animes

Well my journey began only in my youth and now I've watched 547 animes. Well lets be realistic. 50 or so of myanimelist are old animes but  497 shows I've watched since April 2016..

From April 2016 to now I've watched 4913 episodes - 215 Tv Series plus 196 Movies/Ovas and Specials.

That's a lot...

Now talking about anime itself. A lot of youtubers and reviewers talk about producers and directors and sometimes choose from it. I never watch a tvshow (or anime) because a producer is there. Maybe I will change that way in me - let us see. But One or two things I care about (now) it's the studio behind. I can see there are studios I give better rating than others - I think that means something no?

OTher thing it's the source material. This is something people often talk about. Anime are either original, light novel, manga or some novel inspiration. Nowadays also games and music inspire a show.

Just to give you a preview, from the 298 Shows (not counting OVA's/Specials and Movies) 168 the source was Manga (either manga, web manga or 4-koma). 52 came from Light Novel while 37 were original. 
But if you take in consideration my 9/10 stars  - 14 Manga, 7 Original and 6 Light Novel.
And if you are wondering only the ten then surprise - 4 Light Novel & 4 Original with 2 Manga.

This means anything? I don't think so... But I am a number freak.  

Now the studios... My Ten stars

There are some studios that are in the other end of the scope but I still try. It's not that I do not judge an anime because of it's studio but still I try. Some of my not so prefered studios are:

Creators in Pack (12 shows -  mean score 4,33).

Seven (15 shows - mean score 4.53)

Gonzo (9 shows - mean score 4.12)

Silver Link. (11 shows - mean score 4.82)

Studio Deen (26 shows - mean score 5.72)

Last but not least it's the year/season they were made. When I first start thinking watching anime I try to watch the new season intakes but also take time to watch previous seasons/years... So let us watch...

This has not only the ones I've watch but also the ones I am watching .

My objective to 2019 is watch at least a couple of them from each slot.... Let us see...

So here it is... a bit information about me and my tastes....

Oh about genres? I like it all I must say. From Romance to Slice of Life to Comedy to Action to Horror going through Sci-fi, Historica, ecchi and even Yuri and Shoujo-Ai. The only one I don't particulary enjoy is Shounen Ai. Sorry.

Btw, I dislike dropping anime...
