Just dove into Season 2 of Fire Force and it's definitely taking some unexpected turns! 🤔 Not quite what I envisioned, but still holding my attention. Giving it a solid 6/10 for now. What are your thoughts on the new direction? #FireForce #Anime #Season2 #AnimeReview

Anime Review - The Rising of the Shield Hero (2019)

Short version:

* The premise seemed interesting.

* Started out with an engaging portrayal and story. Held my interest well throughout the 1st season.

* Several elements cropping up turned it into kind of a problematic fave.

* But the first episode of the season 2 was the straw that broke the camel's back. Won't be going back.

Long version:

Three major characters from The Rising of the Shield Hero sort of collaged together in dramatic poses.

A really disappointing flipping of the script Zenshu

Seriously had high hopes for Zenshu, as it looked interesting. In fact, the concept is interesting, rewriting or flipping the script of your favourite show. Even changing the fate of characters that befalls them in the show. Sadly, there are issues as zenshu progressed. I had bit of a hard time really staying fully invested in post 3 episodes.

Studio: Mappa
Season: Winter 2025
Episode: 12

First impression Previous Mini review

Positives:

Interesting start

Animation is top notch

Band maid does the OP, can’t go wrong with that

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ9RRiy43j4

Nice little hark to well-known animators in the industry with their iconic drawings like gundam etc

Natsuko being shoved in to doing her drawing desk, there is a small bg music being played, repeating the name of the show, zenshu, I found that quite amusing

Natsuko being thought of as a gremlin at the start is actually quite amusing

Negatives:

Progressively gets bad after it continues on

Bare bones character development for the gang, understandably their fate was predestined, even with the interventions, they barely had any development

The romance between Luke and Natsuko is drier than a well in a desert

Unio can get annoying at times

Memmnel small story arc is interesting, sadly didn’t really go any further than what the movie said would happen

Pacing was meh

The director / bird reincarnated in her own film isn’t explained why she wants the movie to remain the way it is written

The story of overcoming or changing fate / destiny should be a positive, instead it made the whole process uninteresting, even felt dragged out

You can see partially how it would end; I suspected the ending would have Natsuko come back to reality or bring the perishing gang to her reality

Natusko change was predicable from the start: from being unapproachable, loner, to one who would accept help from people and be more happy / approachable

Grade:

E+

New anime: Witchy PreCure!! Mirai Days

It’s been years since the first season and I never rewatched it (it was really not among my favorites) but the sequel manages to feel nostalgic anyway. Mirai and Liko’s relationship is kind of nice.
Now the sequel so far (I’m 2 episodes in) is entertaining but I’m not sure what to think about the plot so far if you can call it one.
The villain seems way too mysterious so far (especially considering it’s a short series) Surprisingly enough, him looking like a regular guy and being a dog owner doesn’t make him sympathetic to me in any way because we know nothing about his life.
The fights and animations look nice.

New anime: You & Idol Precure

It’s really tough to judge a PreCure series by the first episode because those are usually very similar. This one felt a bit nostalgic because it has been a while since the last seaason where a meeting with the mascot kicks things off. It did a good job of introducing Uta and her surroundings, and suprisingly didn’t force that the other two girls also show up already.

I liked that Uta tried to help Purirun when she (?) is not in immediate danger yet… The search for PreCure was also a bit funny.
I hope Purirun learns to be a bit less selfish / distracted, I already found it a bit annoying.
