Totally separate. However, the spell names come right out of Shin Megami Tensei and the weapon weaknesses right out of Fire Emblem. Read more

Actually, no. Not even Kill la Kill or Attack on Titan. OPM has got a rabid fanbase, no doubt about that. Read more

Actually... (from episode 7. 12:33)

The anime is a pretty great adaptation of the “true ending” route of the series. So any problems you had with it will likely appear in the game as well. If you have seen the anime, the main reason to play the game is to see all the other endings—which are almost all fantastic. Read more

Nope. Neither are part of the Science Adventure series, though they do share a creator. Read more

You are partially correct. The Epigraph Trilogy was originally released as a series of novels in Japan. Up until part way through the second book has been released in Manga form in Japan. Read more

Well, here’s the thing about that. Technically they already did a Steins;Gate 0 anime in the form of the special-lead in episode. So the question is, was that all we’re going to get, or is a full series in the works?

Maybe, but the Frontier movies were quite clear on who the “winner” of the triangle was. Read more

Well, here are my thoughts on Dengeki Bunko and J Stars. Read more

Don’t get me wrong. I loved Noragami Aragoto. If this were a top 6 list, it would almost certainly take the spot—though Your Lie and Parasyte would probably make a good fight of it. It was on the “must watch” list for the fall season after all. Read more

Indeed. Thanks! Read more

He did. We talked about it for several hours in fact. He was adamant that Shimoneta, My Love Story and Gatchaman Crowds Insight be on the list—and I, obviously, agreed. He hasn’t seen Death Parade or Rom Com SNAFU 2, though. So those two are all me. Read more

I’m not going to lie, I am very proud of that review and am happy that so many enjoyed it. It was way outside the normal format for my reviews—a crazy experiment that seemed to pay off. Read more

Ore Monogatari is on the list! I promise! Read more

Haha. Well, to be fair, I did watch the entire show before writing this post. However, it did nothing to make me feel any less ambivalent and I felt the other five were more deserving. Sorry! Read more

If this were a top 10 list, I probably would have also included Rokka, Your Lie in April, Parasyte, Noragami Aragoto, and Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works. Read more
