おカマ白書 --- Anime Series Review (10/11/2024 - 17/11/2024)

 Date Created: 11/11/2024 00:20

There’s a really interesting cross-dressing anime. This goes much further into it than a lot of modern anime.


(17/11/2024)

It’s kind of a weird anime, but also very funny and interesting. An anime about cross-dressing gay men (Okama), who actually enjoy what they do is very hard to come by.This is one of those rare classics - not everyone’s cup of tea, but definitely worth a watch.

This is a classic movie — very intense. The part at the end, where the last guy to say guilty tore up a picture of his son, that was a tear-jerker.

RAINBOW 二舎六房の七人 --- Anime Series Review (25/09/2024 - 29/09/2024)

This is about 6 young prisoners that are in a prison that is like hell on earth. Most of the cruelest most disgusting things that can happen in a prison happen to these guys.

I started watching this so I could become manly again. I miss being comfortable in my body and wanting to exercise. I want to get back into that rather than going into this rabbit-hole that is being a femboy. If I start exercising, that will have life long benifits.

(27/09/2024)

Since Rokurouta Sakuragi is gone now, the main story about him is now finished (EP 14: Revenge). Now it looks like the next part is about Mario and him going after the nurse who liked Sakuragi (I think). I’m not sure if I should keep watching. I wanted Sakuragi to live!

(29/09/2024)

The rest of the anime turned out to be pretty interesting as well. It was worth the watch — there were a couple of tearjerking moments.

This is an anime about a NEET — people try to tie it to mental health problems, but this is kind of different in my opinion. It’s a very light hearted and artistic erotic anime about self-help — with some influence from a cute girl.

I thought I might not continue watching this anime after I watched the first episode yesterday. This is because it doesn’t have much in terms of plot. But it does well what it aims to do—which is to show off a bunch of cute girls—a 100 of them in fact!!

(27/05/2024)

Many people are pointing out, and I agree, that what separates this anime from other haram anime is—the main character is not clueless. There are a lot of kissing scenes and it’s really cute.

Definitely enjoyable watch for people that like mystery anime.

This is one of the best novels that I have read in a long time. It’s about a boy that get a disease that turns him into a girl. It’s both cute and realistic at the same time.

I recommend it to anyone who is interested in this kind of thing - well written adult content that’s wholesome. It’s very hard to come by.

(10/04/2024)

It’s an amazing story. I want to shout about it from the rooftops! It goes through a lot of modern topics. And doesn’t shy away from sensitive things. It makes me really wonder what it would like to be a girl myself. It seems fun, but also very challenging at the same time. I have a newfound appreciation for the struggles of women, and a little bit of envy too.

I found this anime because of autofill on the WeChat keyboard when I was talking to someone, on HelloTalk, about magical girl anime.

This anime is really cool because it is a psychological and really cute as well — like happy sugar life, maybe. I still have only watched half an episode so far, so I don't know for sure.


(09/03/2024)

I finished watching this anime already. That should tell you how good it is! The only thing is that I have seen a similar idea to this before in Mirai Nikki, so I couldn't enjoy the ending so much.

By the way, I was watching this during the night so from yesterday to today. Now, it’s just past 3:30.

The anime is about a gambler called Kaiji.

A long (74EP) and interesting mystery anime.

This is a time of anime that is different from what I normally watch. The first few episodes in particular felt especially long so I stopped watching for a while.

The later parts of the anime are full of suspense and twists.

It’s one of those anime that leaves the ending a mystery, and that’s not something that I really like.

This is a paranormal romance manga, as is implied by the title. In my opinion, it balances the paranormal and romance bits really well.

Yuri confesses to Aono after he helps her pick up some books. For two weeks they are able to live like a normal couple. But then Aono dies. Yuri, unable to bare the loss, tries to kill herself by slitting her wrist - but then Aono appears as a ghost and stops. Yuri is overjoyed - it’s not ideal but at least they can be happy, right? Well, not quite - there are consequences to making contracts with the dead…

Since this is targeted at the Seinen demographic, there are a number of Ecchi scenes sprinkled in if you are into that kind of thing - mostly wholesome, though some of the paranormal stuff does affect Aono’s behaviour making him do some not so nice things.

I have read up to chapter 49, which is currently the latest chapter.

(19/11/2022)

Just started watching Tokyo Revengers and so far it’s been super cool. It’s a time travel anime about a man who discovers his ability to time leap when he is almost run over by a train. He uses this power in order to try and save his first and only girlfriend by stopping a war between two rival gangs.

(22/11/2022)

I saw the preview for the next season - there’s no new content in the preview, but people are saying that if the manga is anything to go by this will be really good. Definately going to check out the manga. Zetti make ne!

(24/11/2022)

Just finished the manga! It is definitely worth checking out - there were quite a few moments where I cried. Quite an emotional rollercoaster for a shonen manga. If you are into delinquents, fighting and a main character that never gives up, this is an anime/manga worth checking out.

I had to write this review because this was one of the best romance anime I’ve ever seen. I watched episodes 1 to 6 today. The anime is about a boy and a girl that have a practice marriage as part of a school assessment, but they both start off liking other people. It is a super fun anime with a lot to like - definitely, give it a watch.

A cute anime for people that like drama.

In my option, it just too far with the drama and it started to get annoying after a while so I took a break.

(18/09/2022)

I finished watching the second half (from episode 18 onwards) today. There were a lot of really emotional points that got me, but I found it hard to empathise with most of the characters. I didn’t understand their behaviour some times, but that was probably intentional - their emotions are probably part of the fantasy world too.

Regardless of what I thought of the story, there is no arguing the fact that this anime has really nice artwork. I mean, all the characters look so cute all the time. The voice acting is also amazing in the sub - it really conveyed the emotions well.

There are very few anime that have a good story. This is one of those gems.

It explores themes of love, loss, regret, and redemption.

This is a must-watch classic for fans of the romance genre.

Did you know that there are actually horror anime?

This is a murder mystery set in a school with a classroom close to death.

I highly recommend this if you are looking for something different, or if you just like horror – once I started watching I couldn't stop myself, good thing it was the weekend.

unOrdinary --- WebComic Review (03/11/2021 - 06/11/2021)

Date Created: 08/11/2021 18:34


Date Started: 03/11/2021

Completed: 06/11/2021


This is a must-read if you like stories with superpowers and drama.

Since My Hero Academia is going downhill, this has definitely been a breath of fresh air.

There is always something going on in unOrdinary. Its fights aren't just fillers or just ways of making the protagonist even more OP than he already is — it always has a purpose and everyone can get hurt.

One of the things I usually find annoying about stories with superpowered people is that no one people seem to ever be hurt for very long. Sometimes they recover so fast that you wonder if they were even that hurt to begin with. But, in unOrdinary, I was too caught up in the plot to notice that at all.

All in all I would only recommend it if you have a lot of time on your hands because once you pick this one up you won't be able to put it down.

Can't wait for the next chapter — it's coming out on the 8th of December.

O Maidens in Your Savage Season --- Anime Series Review (14/10/2021 - 16/10/2021)

This was a very exciting anime — and very hard to label. It covers sensitive topics.

It is a coming of age story about five girls in the literature club that read novels that happen to be erotic.

I loved this anime because I felt like I could understand these characters even though their gender, race, and situation were all so much different from mine.

It was definitely a fun anime, full of twists and turns, that you really can't guess what will happen next. Once you start watching, you will not be able to stop!

Was it worth watching? Yes. Was it as good as I hoped? Well, no. I'm not a fan of OP characters or really weak minions like the ones at the end. But I guess that's the kind of thing that sells.

It would have been much better if they used less magic and more actual Kung Fu.

This anime started off amazing — I was interested in seeing how the fights would play out. I was never a fan of the art style, but it was bearable.

But now that the story is slowing downhill, I don't feel like there is much point in watching any more.

Bokutachi no Remake --- Anime Series Review (19/07/2021-26/09/2021)

Date Created: 30/08/2021 18:09


Started Watching: 19/07/2021

Completed: 26/09/2021


(30/08/2021)

I watched the trailer on the 26th of June, and I was totally hooked.

Loved how episode 1 was an hour long. It totally gave time to get a feel Kyouya's life before he got sent back, and over all helped me get a better feel for the anime before committing.

Yesterday, I watched episodes 6 and 7. The ending was definitely unexpected. I do like how Kyouya noticed how the two girls were interested in him, but he is still a bit dense.

(05/09/2021)

Watched episode 9 today. This new arc is very interesting. I know he's still getting used to it, but I want to see Kyouya getting along with his family a bit more and doing some family stuff.

Looking forward to the next episode.

(12/09/2021)

Another fantastic episode.

I liked how Nakano started singing again — it kind of annoyed me that all those people decided to give up, leaving Kyouya to blame himself. Sure, he tampered with their lives a bit, but he didn't mean any harm — he was actually trying to help — they are the ones that decided to give up. If they are so weak willed, they didn't deserve what they got in the first place. So I definitely liked that N@NA got back into it, but I guess it's unlikely to happen with the other two.

I'm waiting for the next episode!

(26/09/2021)

It may be just me, but it felt like a rushed ending and one that didn't feel like an ending at all — I guess they are trying to set up for a new season.

I would have preferred an ending where he decides not to ever tamper with their lives and return to his old one — if he liked struggling, that time was a perfect place to do it. But I guess that wouldn't be as interesting to watch, in a way.

Finished: 26/09/2021


(29/08/2021)

Watched episode 21. Didn't really like how to league of villains were so OP — totally removed any element of risk:

A person can't be basically paralysed one moment and then manages to sprint past 20 odd people before they can even react.

Still, this is better than the fillers we had before.

(05/09/2021)

Yay, another episode with a character becoming OP. Give me a break! I heard about double infinite before, so I was kind of expecting it — but is it just me that thinks this is cheating? Hopefully, the League of Villains' plan will backfire, that would be interesting.

(11/09/2021)

Watched Shigaraki's backstory, and it had me hooked — it's been a while since Hero Aka was this good.

I didn't particularly like how Sugaraki literally ran circles around that point nose guy. If he's doing that without a quirk, what is a speed quirk even for? Guess I could say the same about Toga two episodes back.

(26/09/2021)

It may just be that I am getting old, but my hero academia has lost the impact that it once had. This season was more filler than anything else, and the number of episodes could have been halved if that was just cut out.

(24/08/2021)

My family and I watched this at Vue cinema at 5 pm today. The film was over 2 hours long.

My little brother had the same feelings as me about the film — it started off alright with the plan to trick storm shadow, but it just went downhill from there.

Apparently it's got terrible camera shake too, but we didn't really pay attention to that.

Good acting, but bad script.

This isn't cannon — at least that's what they say on Reddit.

My little brother and I watched this together, like Steins;Gate. He liked the film because he doesn't really pay attention to the details. I didn't notice much of the inconstancies either to be fair, I just didn't like it because there wasn't enough new content in it.

But, if you like the series and want to see more Okabe x Kurisu, you should definitely check this out.

I watched this film with mum. It was an interesting change from what I normally watch these days.

#Home starts of pretty bland, but when everything comes together in the end, it is a becomes real tearjerker.

In the story, Antony, the young man at the top right gets, is continuously getting distracted by his phone and is struggling to make his deadline. His manager sees how messy his flat and tells him that he shouldn't work there any more. So, Antony decides to go back home…

I really like Oliver Twist (Indrans) who is the person positioned at the bottom left of the poster. He is the father of the two boys above, and his wife is the woman on the bottom right. At the centre is his father.

Oliver Twist finds it difficult to talk to his kids, who have grown apart from him due to technology.

Started Watching: 09/07/2021

(21/08/2021)

This is another one of those anime that is worth watching, if for nothing else, it's uniqueness.

I'm Standing on a Million Lives is an isekai in which Yotsuya Yuusuke and a few other children about his age are summoned to another world by someone calling themselves “the Game Master”.

The Game Master gives the children quests that they have to complete, in the world they are sent to, in order to return home. Each new quest happens after a time skip in the other world.

Season two definitely didn't disappoint — the first episode was a tearjerker.

My little brother and I finished episode 7 today, which started the second arc.

One thing I really liked about the last arc was that the fight wasn't depicted in a biased way. Their quest was to exterminate orcs from Jiffon island along with some mercenaries. Throughout the arc, the orcs, and humans seemed to commit atrocities of equal measure. And Yotsuya and his group fought, even after they learned that the orcs weren't in the wrong.

My favourite scene is one in which an orc, sinking into molten lava, instead of showing pain, smiled at the dying young queen he held in his hands, so that she wouldn't be afraid. Even though Yotsuya had resolved to do whatever he could to save himself, in that instant he felt the full weight of his guilt and realized how weak he was.


(29/08/2021)

We watched episode 8 today. So far, there is a bad villain and a bad cliffhanger.

Hopefully, the secret weapon will be interesting.


(11/09/2021)

We watched episode 10 today. It was pretty boring. I guess the chief died, but that's not so startling at this point, and I don't see much point in finding the murderer. I liked it back in the day when goblins were harder to kill.

Death Parade --- Anime Series Review (10/07/2021 - 24/07/2021)

Death Parade is not the type of anime that I normally watch, but it was fascinating nonetheless.

In Death Parade, after humans die they don't go to heaven or hell (yes, they have Death Note references). Instead, they are tested in pairs to decide who will be sent to the void and who will be given a chance to be reborn.

The part I liked the most was that during the tests you were given glimpses into the player's pasts and their personalities and had to try to work out what they did when they were alive.

Definitely worth giving a go!

(18/08/2021)

My little brother and I started watching this today after he recommended it. We watched two episodes.

He said he told me about this anime when it was released, but I don't remember that.

My initial impressions seemed to be the same ones I had with Kono Suba; I didn't like it at first, when I was just watching some clips from it, but then the actual thing was quite good. Not as good as Kono Suba, of course.

(19/08/2021)

We watched episode 3 and half of episode four before a door-to-door salesman interrupted us.

I feel like I don't enjoy it nearly as much as Kono Suba. Though I'm probably only saying that because I haven't had enough sleep recently.

(21/08/2021)

We finished episode 4. It was almost four o'clock, so I decided to wrap things up.

Vijay is really enjoying this series, but I don't really like it. Maybe it's because the ecchi seems a bit excessive to me.

(22/08/2021)

We watched episode 5 and 6 today up until the end of the first arc. I really can take any more of it, so I am going to stop watching. It's not very funny in my opinion, although my little brother seems to like it.

There is a treat at the end of the preview!!!

Happy Sugar Life --- Anime Series Review (04/08/2021)

I don't know if this is a spoiler, but even though the ending is good, by which I mean it ties up all its loose ends, it is not a happy one.

I think that this is a Psychological Thriller. Certainly not a genre that I would watch regularly, but it had one of those plots that had you by the nose.

The art style was also very nice.

I feel like this anime is going to stay in my mind for quite some time — it makes me kind of uneasy.

The only thing I didn't like about this anime is how scary the MC is — that made it hard to take her side; I really hoped that she would get locked up by the halfway point.

This anime is not for everyone.

In the city, the majority of people have personal robots called Persocoms. He wishes he could have one himself, but they are far too expensive.

Then one day, he finds a really cute Persocom in a pile of rubbish…

The Fruit of Grisaia a thriller-mystery involving a mysterious transfer student, Yuuji, who enrols into an elite private school, aiming for a normal student life. The school he enrols into has five other students (all female) each of whom have their own fair share of secrets and struggles.
