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)”

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”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 11

Rating: B- This episode once again reminds us that action scenes are never going to be this franchise’s forté. Thankfully, some other interesting developments are afoot here to help carry the entertainment load. At least this episode tries to put some “oomph” in its action scenes, as the battle between Isla and Demon General FlaminContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 11”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra, episode 10

Rank: B Conceptually speaking, this is one of the most intriguing episodes of any series so far this season. With a single revelation, the writing adds a novel twist to the basic “transported to a game world” concept and partly upends the whole foundation of the series, while also explaining away some seeming inconsistencies inContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra, episode 10”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 7

Rating: B This episode leaves us with one burning question: how does Atou know enough about a traditional Western marriage ceremony to dream about it when Takuto all but proposes to her at the end of the episode? Granted, this could just be the production staff being cute and playing off a common stereotype forContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 7”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra, episode 5

Rating: B- So far this series has largely been able to avoid its relatively weak technical effort hindering its entertainment value, a feat it has accomplished by exploiting striking visual gimmickry. It attempts to do the same in this episode, too, but it can only mask so much when what should be the most action-orientedContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra, episode 5”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 4

Rating: B- Though Atou is a Hero in this setting, and was mentioned in episode 3 to be capable of defending the forest on her own for now, she was also described in episode 1 as not being particularly strong to start; a true warrior-type Hero was portrayed as being a 5 strength compared toContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 4”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episodes 2 and 3

Rating: B On paper, this series’ core concept – the protagonist dies but awakens in a setting similar to a game he had mastered – doesn’t seem to stick out much from other isekai series which take place either inside games or in settings utilizing game mechanics as a shell. And indeed, it’s hardly theContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episodes 2 and 3”
