With most of the season’s series now having aired at least their sixth episode, it’s time to take a look at what series have and haven’t been working so far this season. For the past eight seasons, I’ve followed enough titles to warrant splitting this activity into two or more parts. This season, though, isContinue reading “Fall 2025 Mid-Season Report”

Isekai Quartet 3 episode4
Rating: B In some senses this episode is a disappointment, since the crew from The Eminence in Shadow doesn’t appear at all. That, however, is more than made up for by the utter disaster that a Home Economics class on cooking turns into, and I have to give particular credit to the series for theContinue reading “Isekai Quartet 3 episode4”
Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc
One of the distinguishing characteristics of the 2022 Chainsaw Man series is that protagonist Denji is never portrayed as having a normal human experience. He never went to school and never had friends or any of the the other things most kids take for granted. At heart he’s a creature of instinct, much closer toContinue reading “Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc”
Isekai Quartet 3 episode 2
Rating: B If episode 1 was the tease of the arrival of the Eminence in Shadow crew then episode 2 is that series’ formal introduction to the Isekai Quartet sphere. Specifically, Cid and the Seven Shadows all join class 1, which prior to this point had consisted of the Shield Hero trio and the secondaryContinue reading “Isekai Quartet 3 episode 2”
Isekai Quartet 3 episode 1
Rating: B To be clear, season 3 of this crossover wonder is a direct sequel to the movie ~Another World~ rather than season 2. While you don’t necessarily have to have seen the movie first to be able to follow along here, it is strongly recommended, as references to what happens in the movie areContinue reading “Isekai Quartet 3 episode 1”
Series Review: Secrets of the Silent Witch
In the kingdom of Ridill, the seven preeminent mages are known as the Seven Sages. Each of the seven has a title reflective of their specialty: the Barrier Mage, The Star-Seer Witch, the Witch of Thorns, and so forth. Of them, the most extraordinary is also the youngest: Monica Everett, called the Silent Witch becauseContinue reading “Series Review: Secrets of the Silent Witch”
Summer 2025 Wrap-Up
Now that the Summer 2025 season is fully over and all of the series I’ve been following are either ending or going on hiatus, it’s time to look at how the series I followed finished out. Because of the high volume of titles, covering every one of them here would make this post cumbersome. HenceContinue reading “Summer 2025 Wrap-Up”
Apoclaypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 13 (Season Finale)
Episode Rating: B- Season Rating: B Both subjectively and objectively speaking, this is not one of the season’s top-tier series, especially given the level of competition it had. (The Summer 2025 season is widely being regarded as one of the stronger recent seasons, an assertion that I am ambivalent about.) Even at its best, itsContinue reading “Apoclaypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 13 (Season Finale)”
Fall 2025 Preview Guide
Last Update: 3:32 p.m. 10/14/25 Welcome to my seasonal Guide! (The debut schedule can be found here once it’s been posted, which I hope to have done by Friday 9/26.) I expect to cover every full-episode series that will be debuting this season and is available in streaming form, including many of the sequels/returning series.Continue reading “Fall 2025 Preview Guide”
Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 12
Rating: B This episode may not have the action elements that the previous two episodes (especially episode 11) had, but it nonetheless delivers a far greater and sharper punch, partly by solving two mysteries and delivering tantalizing hints of a new and much bigger one. The first (and more short-term) of the two mysteries isContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 12”
