it's like redo of healer for babies

It is a super basic show. Some fun but short fight scenes. No character development. MC just wants revenge

the most notable and somewhat enjoyable part of this show were a few fight scenes near the end. The actual revenge scenes are not only drawn out but so unsatisfying and disappointing.

The revenge and motivation is only for the MC but the side characters/summons are so empty and undeveloped - their only goal is to fulfill the wishes of the MC who has no motivation other than "getting revenge". If you contrast this to Redo of Healer or any other ...

It was truly cinema. Chainsaw man is a story that is very suitable for theatrical release. It felt like watching a Tarantino film but as an anime.

I watched in IMAX in tokyo last month, and 4DX + 3D in america recently.

The 3D experience is not that special, as there is not much special 3D effects. But 4DX was really fun. The Reze 'bathwater' was great immersion. There is a lot of rain and mist throughout the movie and the sound quality is great. It was like you were there seeing Reze butt naked teaching you to swim. The action scenes pack a huge punch and ...

Dexter but anime style and female sociopath schoolgirl lead.
- goes after criminals that sneak past justice system/are uncaught
- mention of rules/"code" for killing
- only kills bad guys (that have killed)
- serial killer herself
- normal "fake" personality/persona in school
- fun twists, suspense, some of them do keep you guessing a bit

You probably saw this manga on tiktok
Aside from the righteous killing of random criminals which is very enjoyable to read, there is not much else going on currently in terms of plot.
Every few chapters is mostly a "new criminal of the week" arc. Curious where this will go. (~26 chapters as of review) Some of ...

If you are not a fan of project sekai, the movie is not going to be very interesting. Even if you are, there are dozens of characters so it only covers them at a very surface level. The plot is very simple and lacks much depth. The ending is just a few short songs from each group you can wave a penlight around for, about 10 minutes.

It is an interesting experience to visit a theater for due to the crowd, but would not watch alone at home. The animation is good. The music (very short segment) is good. The story is lacking and characters ...

Solid ani-movie. Good action scenes and visuals. The animation feels a bit better than recent seasons. Some jarring CG still for large crowds. Several "skipped" fight scenes (understandably unimportant). Story wise it works well as a movie as it flows well, is directed well, and wraps up cleanly with a short cute after credit scene.

The new characters introduced are pretty cool. Solid development for some existing characters.

I watched in imax and the experience is not much better audio-wise. This isn't a great "surround sound" experience like normal films, but that is expected.

Enjoyment-wise there are many episodes in the tv series that i enjoyed a lot ...

Rezero, higurashi, steins gate.
Time travel and thriller.
This series is very similar. But does not make me feel the same.
It was just too predictable. Full of cliche, not even executed well.
We did not care for the characters. They are too simple and forgettable.
There is no psychological element to this show, and I think that is the biggest miss for a "time travel thriller" series that the 3 series above executed well.

The fights and deaths are flashy and have good animation. But the writing lacked substance and everything was just convenient and short sighted. It kind of felt like a brainless shounen, and everyone had ...

The weakest fights the strongest
This is the trope of this series, and it is enjoyable to watch. Like most action series, the story evolves into dealing with bigger and stronger villains/issues. But, the MC does not get any stronger. So it does have that charm.
However, the recent chapters are a complete mess. And certain characters are so out of place in the story right now that the story feels so messy. There are so many times the audience is probably wondering "who the hell is this", or "i remember this character from 50 chapters ago".
The author wrote a romance comedy before this. His current ...

This author is good at writing twists in his stories.
For this series, I could not predict at all what was going to happen next.
You see this title and read the first chapter and think it is going to be about a kid with a gun doing things in a school.
But the story evolves, the characters evolve. And by the end, I am left a little confused but somewhat satisfied.

There are plot lines and character subplots abandoned. The author tends to leave subcharacters heavily underdeveloped towards the end. It is a common thing in manhwa to only heavily focus on the MC and maybe 1-2 other ...

One can say shows like death note, attack on titan, etc. have revolutionized anime.
They can also say shows like Solo Leveling is killing anime

Solo leveling is one of MANY products of mass produced "power scaling" manhwas from Korea.
Some say it started the craze, started it all. You can open up any random manhwa in this genre and realize only subtle differences from solo leveling. "It's just like solo leveling", said manhwa reader #99593258983.

Solo leveling's popularity is due to its genericness. You can think of it as the Sword Art Online of manhwa. Nothing really stands out, but it is fun to look at, and ...

Preliminary (6/12 eps)
generic action anime. Appeals to young children mainly. You like solo leveling? Might as well watch this too.
It is just fight scenes and action scenes back to back. There is little to no dialogue. The only character 'development' is the MC is becoming a monster and losing his humanity I guess. The whole story is just human vs monster. But one (or a few) human strong!

It is still fun to shut your brain off and watch maybe. Nothing really to think about or pay attention to other than blankly gazing at the flashy projectiles, debris, and swords and stuff flying around. The MC is ...
