Girly Air Force – Episode 1
I don’t think I’ve watched something with this much of a boner for the military since the last time I sat through a Michael Bay movie.

I am not the target audience for this series, but I was still pleasantly surprised by how creative this premiere turned out to be.
The Promised Neverland might be the most excited I’ve been about a Shonen JUMP manga adaptation in years.
“Lesbian pedophiles” has only barely become an established subgenre, and I’m already running out of energy for this shit.
The incredibly bleak undertones of this first episode don’t feel a bit out of place in 2019, and I’m excited to see what new ideas the crew will bring to such a well-known property. This might end up being a sleeper hit of the season.
No source material is impossible to make into a good anime, but mobile games come with a distinctive set of challenges. This one seems to suffer from a good chunk of the same issues.
Rather than holler about a premiere that hinges on false rape accusations and slavery apologism and bring more attention to a bad series, we’re going to give that visibility to some organizations dedicated to helping survivors of rape and human trafficking.
I spent a bit of time hemming and hawing over whether to write this review or let it go as a sequel, since it technically is one. On the one hand, I don’t get paid if I don’t write it. On the other hand, this show is really really ugly and bad.
Boogiepop and Others is a show that requires active viewing. Either way, I’m interested to see what it’ll do.
I think I’m picking up what this series is putting down, but it’s a little bit hard to tell when this first episode is essentially a lengthy prologue.
We’re taking a final look back at 2018 before jumping into the new year!
The Fall went and dropped a variety of colorful anime into our laps, with plenty of surprises along the way! Leave it to the last season of 2018 to keep us on our toes.
This first episode sets up a surprisingly sweet nostalgia piece; a love letter to the bonds that form between people thanks to games.
I am extremely annoyed that I had to stop watching Sirius the Jaeger to write this review, which gives you a real good idea of how much I enjoyed this premiere.
This show seems designed to appeal to a roughly middle-grade audience, painting its battle of good and evil in broad strokes along familiar emotional beats and centering on a strong familial bond.
Picturing the face of the Netflix acquisitions team as they realized they’d paid their usual exorbitant sum of money not for another Devilman Crybaby or Aggretsuko or even Kakegurui, but a poorly paced, fugly wreck that would embarrass itself on JibJab circa 2004… well, that mental image really got me through this, the longest 23 minutes of my life.
Hey, KyoAni fans! Are you ready for more pretty people with shiny hair looking downcast while working through their past traumas? Because Tsurune is here and it is just about joyless.
The fall shows have had some time to show their colors, so let’s see how they look a few weeks in!
Summer season—happened so fast! We hope you all had yourselves blast, ’cause a lot of our staff sure did.
Another batch of premieres watched and reviewed! There are still a couple lagging behind the rest, but now that we’ve gone through the main rush, it’s time to take a look at our latest bounty.
