We're near the end of the season, who do we have at number one of the season?
S: Must Watch
Episodes I believe you must watch or are missing out on.
1. Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Season 2. Ep.7
SUMMARY
Methode best girl?
Frieren saying that there are demon generals stronger than Eisen isn't encouraging the poor Stark here, it makes me even more frightened to think of such a thing. Despite this, no one in the meeting room will run from this battle and they prepare to face an opponent who will be difficult given the rarity of their skill.
Before getting into the fights, we get to see Revolte the demon of four swrods and his team. Their designs are great, but what took the show here is Revolte's voice actor. Miki Shinichiro is a legend with such a distinct voice, it's always a pleasure to hear him. He's perfect for Revolte, a demon that seems almost royal in comparison to others.
After seeing Revolte we return to the main cast. Stark is staying behind with Genau to protect the bodies until they are collected. Genau may beleive himself different, but he is still very human. He also calls Stark a good person, and I wholeheartedly agree.
On to the fights! It's Fern vs Methode! Frieren may be a mature lady but everyone has their weaknesses, all it takes is a good and rare spell!
We don't get the conclusion to this one however, the demons are here. They begin by seperating Methode from her partners and we have the battles set. I know Fern is doubting herself here, and it is why I love how Frieren is forcing her to fight. She must face that danger, or she could falter in the future without Frieren at her side.
Back to Stark and Genau, we learn that Revolte is resposible for the death of his old partner. Is this why he chose to stay as he knew Revolte would reapear? Perhaps, and if so he got his wish. I mean, what else can I say other than what we got of the fight so far was fantastic. The movemnt is so clean, every strike feels like it's going to break thorugh the screen, I can't wait for next week!
9.5/10, I have to say it again, come on, the OST is just too good. Just listen to the ending track.
2. Sentenced to Be a Hero. Ep.10
SUMMARY
Why is this only twelve episodes? I demand a season 2!
The heroes we have seen so far have been a lively bunch and the best characters of the show, let's add another one! Before that, we turn over the butter devouring goddess Teoritta as she explores where best to visit next. Beach or musuem, doesn't matter to her so long as she can go out.
In town, Teoritta gets the praise she deserves! She's having the time of her life, but it's Xylo who is surprised by a sudden rise in popularity. It's nice to see them get some praise, but the good times are soon done as the city is under seige.
Now to the new addition! Rhyno, artillery for the team! He joins just as the hero team is sent as the sole defense for the port district. Teoritta won't let them do a pitiful job, and we have the great king Norgalle to lead troops gathered by his charisma.
Onto to the defense! Bogies rush through the streets and into the hands of a knight, and a luncatic. Rhyno also joins the fray, good lord that's some firepower. Rhyno is more than willing to suffer losses if it means victory, I can see why he was locked up and where he will butt heads with Xylo. For now, the defense continues.
I'm glad we ended on Kivia who was the most interesting character of the epiosde. Her suspicions aginst her own uncle are difficult to accept, but she is exhausting herself because of it. The scene of her losing it on Venetim was great, though the ending scene may have been another hint to what she fears most.
9.5/10, I love this show
3. Hell's Paradise Season 2. Ep.9
SUMMARY
Man, the Fa's transformed state is something else. Choubei does his best to block their never ending attacks with the sole purpose of protecting his little brother. He's a jerk, but the guy loves his brother more than anything.
The others won't just stand around and do nothing however. We see a quick combo attack that allows for hinderance to work while holding hands, it may be what we need as the Fa monster continues to transform with every new scene.
I'm surprsied to say that I'm coming around on Chouebi. He had a great moment with setting the plan. I hope it works, but I fear that not everyone will make it out of this alive. Gantetusai has taken way too much damage and keeps steaming ahead on nothing but pride and love for the game, even Toma takes considerable damage. Damage be darned however! The coolest characer in the show gives them the opporunity to strike! Let's go Gantetusai!
Tao Fa dying hurt me a little, but at least she was given some comfort as she passed. Ju Fa won't get such a send off, the pain of not being able to protect the one you love is something I don't wish upon my worst enemy. But, at least, the two were able to be together.
Over to Mei and Sagiri vs Gui Fa!We don't get a battle here, it's much worse. Gui Fa shows the girls an illusion of what is to come. Rien is preparing to leave and turn everyone into tan via the butterflies, ending his plan with creating the perfect Tan. I know we just won a fight, but some ends seem hopeless at the moment.
9.3/10, bro please show me Gabimaru breathing
![[Oshi No Ko] Season 3](https://efvedablogbucket.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/images/oshiNoKo.jpg)
4. [Oshi No Ko] Season 3. Ep.9
SUMMARY
Hold on I feel bonita when the OP comes on!
Back to planning for the big film, finding a distributor seems to be the issue at the moment. The two at the head of this effort are great at what they do however, I have no doubt they'll succeed.
Onto to Aqua, it's nice to see him and Kana talking again. She's more than willing to help him after what he did, but her big mouth may have ruined her chances at love after learning that Aqua is now single. Poor girl, maybe best girl Meme can make some magic happen.
Or not, Aqua is hell bent on revenge. There is nothing but darkness in his, and Ruby's eyes but he is the one spiraling towards an explosive end. Ruby is deep as well, though she's much better at hiding it as we see at Kana's high school graduation.
As well as she is at hiding it, the similarities between Ruby and Ai are unmistakable. Gotanda notices this at a fateful encounter, and this drives him to push for Ruby take the lead role as Ai in the film. Kaburagi is opposed as he wants it to be frill. Who would I like? Miyako.
Frill Shiranui has my favorite design other than Miyako, don't even get me started on Seto Asami voicing her dear lord. Despite her great design, we've gotten little of her until now. An acting showdown, Shiranui vs Ruby! And surprise entry! Akane!!!!!
Frill starts the showdown with some impressive skills, being able to draw tears on command has always been impressive to me. Ruby is up next, but we won't get to see her until next week.
9/10, Was that a bit rainboow tint to her star? Also, I'd like to say that ending visuals are incredible
5. Trigun Stargaze. Ep.10
SUMMARY
Is riding a bike that hard?
After many episodes of getting beat down, it's a nice start to have the children speaking with Wolfwood about leaving to another star. Seing them filled with hope is nice, I can only hope things will pan out.
After this nice scene, we get to some reunions at last. This comes at Livio's request to help the children, though it is Ludia that has a request for him and we end with Hopeland as the place of refuge.
Plans to protect Octovern are in their final stages now, it's time for Vash to make a decision. Meryl gives a great suggestion that could keep Nai away from Octovern and the fleet. He'll try and summon Nai using resonance as the worms do, and I agree that Nai won't[t miss the chance to get to Vash.
It's time to head off now, and the send off is absolutely fantastic. From the people wishing them luck, to the serranation given to the audience. What a scene.
9/10, I request for more Millie.
6. To Your Eternity Season 3. Ep.18
SUMMARY
Back up has been called in!
Before they arrive, Tonari's team puts up a valiant effort against Nushi. Tonari buys the others time for now, but I fear she has been hit by blood.
Back to Fushi, he's giving some resitance at last. Here we se a glimpse of his power, though it only makes me angrier that it took him this long to put up a fight. His chosen form of battle here is phychological warfare which may be the most evil thing he has done.
Reinforcements arrive on both ends of the battles, Bon is there to save the group carrying Mizuha and Hairo and the others arrive to help Tonari against Nushi. Their efforts arent enough, and what I feared has come to be, Tonari has been infected.
Before more disaster can strike, our lord and savior arrives. That' right! Boy Black is here! We don't get much from him as the episode was near done, the last seconds are decidated to Mizuha's decision to return with everyone.
Ahhhhhhhh, my issues are compounding. I can't help but think that Fushi is making too many mistakes that have ended in disaster by this point. Tonari being taken is the worst of it, and I believe a lot of this could have been avoided if he wasn't determined to find a solution that works for everyone. Maybe I am wrong however, I have enjoyed Mizuha's struggle and the evolution of the Nokkers, but I need Fushi to be more.
9/10, if nothing else, the preview does bring hope
A: Very Good
Good episodes, anime I would recommend to someone looking for something to watch.
7. The Darwin Incident. Ep.10
SUMMARY
The moment is here. Later that is.
Charlie with the blocked out eyes is terrifying. Kudos to anyone that can take a punch from him or even have a simple exchange with the guy. His repsonse to feeling responsibility for this world was eerie as well, though it stays true to his character as we have seen so far.
I thought we were getting a big reveal about Lucy here, but it's acutally about Dr. Grossman! It was the doctor who had the ALA raid his the lab on that fateful day. Rivera reveals this, much more, and ends it by offering Charlie the opportunity to meet the doctor should they work together. Before we can get an asnwer, the cops arrive and apprehand Rivera. It's finally over.
Or so we would think! Rivera is something else man.
Charlie rushes home to find it ablaze. The perpetrators were the angered people of the community, but this fire was to destroy the evidence. The Steins have been killed. The poor guy isn't given a moment to grieve, he runs away as the FBI attempts to capture him.
My heart is broken, the Steins were fantastic people beaten by ignorance and hatred.
9/10, RIP.
8. Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game Part 1. Ep.10
SUMMARY
The greatest thing to come out of JJK is lobotomy kaisen. Of all the memes in the anime community, of all the slander, of all the agenda, of all the headache inducing talking points, lobotomy kaisen is the one that stands above all. And, it all started with none other than Fushigoro, the potential man.
Fushigoro starts this fight off hot, though it turns out he's against more than just two opponents. The guy has too big of a soft spot for woman and that ends with him getting some burns. He only slows for a bit, the addition of the new rule by Yuji brings the heat back and we get a pretty cool action scene as they transition between rooms. Mappa is is doing unbelievable work, and this allows us to see a brutal side of Fushigoro.
Potential man is cool and all, but the main character is here! Behold! Takaba has arrived! As ridiculous as Takaba is, he's an absolute unit. He may even be my favorite fighter of the series so far, having read the manga there is really no limit to how creative they could get with this guy.
Fushigoro continues his own fight, of which I loved that camera after dodging the trucks the most, what a cool visual. He's always been a figher who relies on wit, or his hail merry that is, but it is his wit that leads him into a space in which he can do it! He can unleash his potential!
8.8/10, do it potential man!
B: Good/Solid
C: It's ok/ Fine
These are shows I happen to pick up but struggle to finish. Still watchable, but not without a good break in between episodes.
D: Do Not Recommend
Shows I do not recommend you watch for various issues.
F: Bad
Anime with glaring issues that make them not only difficult to watch, but the watcher angry at times.
