It’s probably about time I sat down to write about Oshi no Ko Season 2. Hands down, this is the most talked-about anime of the Summer 2024 season. In this part, we dive deeper into the challenges of adaptation—specifically, transitioning from manga to stage play. Season 1 already touched on
Clearly, the heated topic of discussion among fans regarding *Mushoku Tensei* lately revolves around the detail where Rudy marries Roxy as his second wife—Roxy, who was once his tutor. Let’s not forget that this is an isekai anime, often hailed as one of the trailblazers that fueled the growing trend
With just one episode left, Dungeon Meshi is wrapping up, and it’s been a while since a fantasy anime has captivated me this much. As the genre grows ever more popular, many works fall into tired, predictable tropes, leading to a dip in quality. But lately, a few fantasy titles
Just one episode turned a character I found grating into someone incredible, leaving a strong impression and stirring deep empathy in me.

This season, there’s another series that started late but has already wrapped up on Netflix: Grimm Kumikyoku. Produced by WIT Studio (known for Attack on Titan, Spy x Family, Vivy, and more), with character designs by CLAMP (reminiscent of their work on Code Geass), this work stands out with its
I’m not exactly a tough critic, but I’m not super easygoing either—especially when it comes to comedy. It’s rare for a romcom to have me clutching my stomach from laughter throughout an entire episode, from start to finish, like Makeine. I’d say the last time I encountered a romcom with
Sousou no Frieren left a void in the hearts of many when it concluded (mine included), and I think Spice & Wolf is the perfect work to “somewhat” fill that lingering emptiness. Though this is a seed article for Spice & Wolf, I personally find that it shares many similarities
From the same mind behind The Quintessential Quintuplets (5-toubun no Hanayome), I was honestly a bit surprised that Negi could whip up a premise this intriguing. Drawing inspiration from Super Sentai (tokusatsu), Sentai Daishikkaku (SD) throws in a fresh twist. Instead of the protagonist being one of the heroic rangers
