Thoughts on board game anime, and Elfen Lied
Hikaru No Go (2001-2003) Rated: 3.5 / 5 Touya... let's play. We can't start until we play. I naturally learned about this show when I learned about Go and how to play it. Wasn't entirely sure what to expect from an anime about a board game. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised, though I'm … Continue reading Thoughts on board game anime, and Elfen Lied
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (2006) half-assed series review, and anime clichés I hate
Rated: 1.5 / 5* * = rating after watching the first 15 1/2 episodes, and I'm not going farther than that. The thing about giving bad ratings like this, it's going to give the wrong initial impression about this show. The show starts out great. High school setting with mecha anarchist uprisings, rebelling against the government and … Continue reading Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (2006) half-assed series review, and anime clichés I hate
The Shield (2002-2008) thoughts
Rated: 4 / 5 Anti-whiteness: 1.5 / 5 This show created a lot of misconceptions for me back in the day. Because I watched the first season (and a half) of this series back when it first came out, I was under the impression shows in general were more anti-PC back in the day than … Continue reading The Shield (2002-2008) thoughts
Rant on insults and death-wishes; plus thoughts on Oh! / Ah! My Goddess!
Introduction that you can skip if you just want the anime review. So I've received some interesting responses to a few prior blog posts I made over the years. In particular, posts I made regarding the holocaust and pedophilia (if you want a taste of both, go play Barbarossa). The type of responses I do … Continue reading Rant on insults and death-wishes; plus thoughts on Oh! / Ah! My Goddess!

Farscape (1999-2004) series review
Rated: 4 / 5 One of the few shows out there that managed to maintain being consistent in quality throughout its existence. It's a show I never appreciated as much as I should've. Mainly because at the time I was thinking, "Yeah, this show is fun. It's a sign of better things to come if … Continue reading Farscape (1999-2004) series review
Rocko’s Modern Life series review
I'll admit, I was kind of looking for a verbal fight when I got into a little discussion with CryptDaddy on Twitter. When he took the position of, "The Tiny Toon Adventures reboot will probably be good." All I could think was, "Yeah, sure, like the Teen Titans reboot, the Doug sequel, Powerpuff Girls sequel, … Continue reading Rocko’s Modern Life series review
Star Trek (TOS; 1966-1969) review
Rated: 4 / 5 The original Star Trek series. The one that made sci-fi a popular genre (before 2001: A Space Odyssey came about in 1968). Not only that, but made cerebral sci-fi a thing. Though to be fair, given budget and technology constraints, cerebral was probably the best thing the series has going for … Continue reading Star Trek (TOS; 1966-1969) review
Space Adventure Cobra (1982-1983) anime series review
http://mistakesofyouth.com/images/cobra_poster.jpg Rated: 3 / 5 https://hamgear.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/nc-17.jpg So I got interested in seeing this after someone tweeted about how awesome that Sylvester Stalone movie Cobra is, and someone else tweeted how this is the other awesome Cobra. The cover they showed of the series was of the later OVA series, with this blonde aryan guy and … Continue reading Space Adventure Cobra (1982-1983) anime series review
