So, where have the reviews been?
We tried to get through the first episodes of the Winter 2014 knockout list and ended up despairing for humanity. There are other things we need to do instead of torturing ourselves with bad anime for twelve weeks. Instead, I followed Log Horizon and AstralRuby followed Samurai Flamenco. I do recommend Log Horizon.
What about Spring 2014? Well, it’s not looking good either. Do we really need multiple show implying incest and a couple implying pedophilia?
There is a bright spot in all of this, though. We have the second season of Mushishi. So far, it looks like a return to form and I look forward to watching it.
We’d like to put up some reviews and discussions about anime that we do like, especially shows that we think have been underrated. There are a lot of ranty reviewers out there already and it takes a lot of energy to put up with something you don’t like. However, if there’s a show we feel compelled to roast, we’ll do so, just because we’ll have our righteous anger to sustain us through the grind.
