Detective Conan: The Black Iron Submarine Anime Film Review

I would put this in my top three Detective Conan movies. ― The Black Organization is the primary antagonist in the Detective Conan franchise. While the abundance of filler in the main anime series causes their presence to get buried, when even a single member makes an appearance, that's when you know that an episode is important. The organization ties all of the major plot points of the series togeth...

Shirohiyo manages to glide to a stop, like a sled on a hill that’s not quite steep enough for good sledding. ― The ending of Shirohiyo: Reincarnated as a Neglected Noble: Raising My Baby Brother With Memories From My Past Life isn't conclusive. I think many of us saw that coming; not only is it the norm for anime series based on long-running light novels, but it also couldn't have reached a solid fin...

Persona5: The Phantom X Game Review

I found the original Persona 5’s story to be particularly resonant and engaging, so this is an unbelievably disappointing downgrade so far. ― Love them or hate them, games featuring prominent gacha mechanics are big business.
