2025 in Review: The Best and Strangest of the Year
As we say good-bye to 2025, it’s time to take a look at the year as a whole rather than just the highlights of individual seasons. 2025 may have broken the record set in 2024 for anime titles either debuting or airing new seasons, as by my count over 210 non-kiddie titles made the schedule.Continue reading “2025 in Review: The Best and Strangest of the Year”
Fall 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. As I noted in the Mid-Season Report, this was the lowest volume of titles that I’ve followed in aContinue reading “Fall 2025 Wrap-Up”
Isekai Quartet 3, episode 11 (season finale)
Episode Rating: A- Series Rating: B+ We’ve seen this franchise do massed battles featuring all of the characters for its climaxes three times before (including the movie), so how can the franchise mix that up? By making the climactic battle a musical, of course! Technically this is just following up from episode 10, where ClassContinue reading “Isekai Quartet 3, episode 11 (season finale)”
The Apocalypse Files #3
Episode 12 was clearly the series’ final episode, so it’s time for one last look at all of the strangeness and a general look back on the series as a whole. While there’s more natural splendor to experience here, the real highlight of the episode is something that fans have been longing for almost sinceContinue reading “The Apocalypse Files #3”
The Apocalypse Files #1
As I mentioned in my Fall 2025 Mid-Season Report, I deeply regret not doing episode reviews for Touring After the Apocalypse. Rather than do those fully, I’ve decided to take an alternate approach and explore all the little visual details which provide clues in each episode about how the apocalypse happened. This installment focuses onContinue reading “The Apocalypse Files #1”
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”

Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 9
Rating: B After how, ahem, “eccentric” the Brain Eaters proved to be, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Isla, Queen of Bugs, once she finally got summoned. Would she be similarly twisted by the evil alignment of Mynoghra? I’m pretty sure I wasn’t expecting her to be everyone’s kindly grandmother, however. Isla having anContinue reading “Apocalypse Bringer Mynoghra episode 9”
Summer ’25 Mid-Season Report, part 2
See here for part 1 of the report Kaiju No. 8 s2 Rating So Far: B This has, so far, had less feature moments for Kafka, but that doesn’t mean it’s been short on big developments. Quite the contrary, in fact; No. 9 has uppedhis game even further as the main antagonist, and now itContinue reading “Summer ’25 Mid-Season Report, part 2”
