Hachigatsu no Cinderella Nine Premiere: Episode 1 Review
Category: Spring 2019
Sarazanmai Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"Sarazanmai feels like history in the making"
Fairy Gone Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"Clumsily directed and lacking in oomph, perhaps, but I wouldn’t be lying that I think that Fairy Gone is one of the better neo-gothic attempts"
Shoumetsu Toshi Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"Shoumetsu Toshi is lacking in a good hook"
Hitoribocchi no Marumaru Seikatsu Premire: Episode 1 Review
"Hitoribocchi is already such a heartfelt, feel-good but deeply personal experience"
Kimetsu no Yaiba Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"Kimetsu no Yaiba can tap into a strong sense of isolation, but the soundscape that captures the atmosphere is ruined by a blaring soundtrack and the pace is brought to a standstill by over explanation"
Kono oto Tomare! Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"There are no bonus points for originality on offer, but Kono oto Tomare is an odd sort of fun"
Fruits Basket (2019) Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"Fruits Basket’s first episode may seem ordinary, a little over punctuated and have some generic centrepieces, but ultimately, there are so many signals that all the pieces are in place to build something quietly brilliant."
Kono Yo no Hate de Koi wo Utau Shoujo YU-NO Premiere: Episode 1 Review
"We’re definitely not in unique territory here, folks."
Ultraman Premiere: Episode 1-3 Review
"Because it’s so fast paced, it feels refreshingly vanilla with a sense of style, but its staying power feels hindered due to lack of meaning."
