100 Sleeping Princes and the Kingdom of Dreams: The Animation (TV) Decent
A-Girl (OAV) Decent
A3! Season Spring & Summer (TV) Good
Ajin (TV)
Ajin (TV 2)
Alderamin on the Sky (TV) Good That last five minutes...so f*ed up (had to knock it down a point for that). Otherwise, this was really good!!! Only problem is that this could've easily been optioned for a second season, but I really don't see how I can watch a character potentially lose their code or watch a nation forcefully brought to defeat by it's own hands with almost no thought to the human sacrifice.
(The) Ancient Magus' Bride (TV) Excellent
(The) Ancient Magus' Bride: Those Awaiting a Star (OAV) Good
Angel Sanctuary (OAV) Decent
Angels of Death (TV) ep. 13. this is so screwed up
Anonymous Noise (TV)
Another (TV)
Argevollen (TV) Very good This is very well done and I wish most mecha animes were thought out like this
Arte (TV) Excellent
Assassination Classroom (TV) Very good Interesting. This struck me as violently humane and very well done at that. Probly will hold off on the sequel for now, but I will return!
Attack on Titan (TV) Bad (dub), Excellent (sub) Season1 I NEED TO SEE THE NEXT SEASON NOW!!!!!!! Seriously considering reading the manga... DO NOT watch the dubbed version!!!! After originally watching the subbed, I could not take many of the needed-to-be-serious moments seriously. Instead, I laughed. The American voice actors they chose don't give an epic performance (what the series demands), so it feels lacking and then the laughing at everything starts because you can't take the characters seriously. Even the titans' yells are different... Mehhh. SO, YEAH! I'm eagerly awaiting the 2nd season :D
Attack on Titan (TV 2/2017) Good
Attack on Titan (TV 4/2019) Decent
Attack on Titan The Final Season (TV) Not really good
Attack on Titan The Final Season Part 2 (TV) Not really good
Bakuman. (TV) Very good
Bakuman. 2 (TV) Excellent
Bakuman. 3 (TV) Excellent
Beautiful Bones: Sakurako’s Investigation (TV) Very good I truly hope they'll approve a second season
Beyond the Boundary (TV) Good This thing is so far-fetched, you have to believe it lol. I appreciated the non-intro-intro way of them telling/showing the viewers what goes on in this world of their's. That definitely saved them points. It was also quite comical; I gave in to a few fits of giggles during some of the episodes^_^ Not to mention, it's only 12 episodes, so it'll only 'waste' about 6 hours of your time while you try to figure out what 'the next Bleach' or what-have-you is. :)
Bibliophile Princess (TV) Good
Black Bullet (TV) Very good Ep1 Interesting...I think I'll watch another episode. Ep2 Yup. Watching the whole thing. It's different and has a good variety of characters -good and bad.
Black Cat (TV) Excellent Kinda ended on a cliffhanger, so I really would love a second season. However, when I get the chance, I'd like to start the manga:)
Blood+ (TV) Excellent Nothing to say except WATCH IT!
Blood-C (TV) Excellent This really lives up to the name "Blood". So. Much. Blood. But it's really good, so I definitely recommend it to Blood fans!
Blood-C: The Last Dark (movie) Finally!!!!! The conclusion!!!!
Blood: The Last Vampire (movie)
Blood: The Last Vampire (live-action movie)
Blue Exorcist (TV) Very good I need to read the manga...and hope for another season!
Blue Spring Ride (TV) Very good
(The) Boy and The Beast (movie) Excellent They don't have a dub out yet, but this is just an amazing film and I hope to own it one day. There is an AMV on YouTube by Ryder4z that won Best Character Profile at AnimeNext 2016 that just does a wonderful job expressing the main character.
Boys Over Flowers (TV) So-so
Brothers Conflict (TV) Episodes 1&2: I can just tell that this will be awesome...and very interesting. I'm rooting for Yuusuke cuz he just seems perfect for her:) Although Subaru, Natsumae, and Futo aren't bad choices either, I just really like Yuusuke>< Episode 3: Wedding episode! Some funky stuff's about to go down! Nothing too serious happens in this one, but POOR YUUSUKE!!!!!! He saw her first (#1) and he's having the worst time trying to handle his crush and her becoming his step-sister... give him a break everyone, PLEASE???!!! Fuuto is even starting to make a move that just doesn't make sense considering his earlier behavior... Anyway, everyone's been introduced and Natsumae figures out Subaru's crush on Ema...notices in the family picture of all places!!!!! Can someone say BUSTED??? Episode 4: The ONE GUY I didn't want her having anything to do with!!!! Natsumae looks like he's sweet on her, WHY NOT HIM!?!?!?!?! Holy fucking SHIT!!!!!! WTFH why did there have to be a witness!!!! Tsubaki, I'm gonna kill you. Episode 5: Who am I gonna kill next??? SUBARU!!!!! WTF were you thinking putting her on the spot after your game like that. Too fast & too furious for poor Ema to take in. Especially when Natsumae comes in at the hyper-critical moment and saves her from answering with the toughest question: "are you going out with Subaru?" Best answer she could've given -and gave: "I don't know anymore...[weren't we just supposed to be siblings?]". Regardless of his feelings for Ema, Natsume makes the decision to back off (even though, he seemed to be QUITE jealous when those two showed up together after she went to get more drinks for the little family picnic they had at the park -it really was coincidental). He's such a great guy, how the hell did he manage to be the triplet of Azuza and Tsubaki???? Episode 6: It's really heating up... The identical twins have staked identical claims (neither will allow the other to get close to Ema). Natsumae is still fighting to stay on the sidelines and chooses not to answer Subaru's pointed question (good choice). Fuuto is made a very spirited move towards Ema...as did Azuza when Tsubaki got a TAD forceful when he got jealous of Ema's treasuring the brothers' pictures x_x Will there ever be an end???? Where's Luis when you need him?!?!?! And poor Yuusuke is left in the dark, but notices the change between Subaru and Ema after the bball game.... Hopefully, he'll be brought up to speed next week>< I'm rooting for you Yuusuke!!!!!! Episode 7: Yuusuke is doing well getting close to Ema by just being normal around her, not pushy (and no thanks to Fuuto). Fuuto is starting to get more aggressive Episode 8: Azuza has declared himself and will not steer clear of Tsubaki (like he usually does). This is regardless of the fact that he has meningitis>< Episode 9: AAAAAHHHHHHHH NATSUMAE!!!!!!!!!! WHY MUST YOU BE SO AWESOME?!?!?! He has just raised the stakes by basically declaring himself to Ema while trying to tell her that she is very important to everyone regardless of how she came to be in this family (she was adopted by her father after her parents passed). I know I've been torn between Yuusuke and Natsumae, but now it's like super serious! Everyone but Yuusuke's stepping up his game trying to win her heart and I don't know when he's finally gonna realize how crazy this race has become:/ Luis gets some serious face time in this episode, too. He and Juli proclaim themselves the 'Protect Chi Club' and further help her come to terms with her newfound past. It really was just what she needed Episode 10: IT'S OFFICIAL! Ema has 7 guys after her!!!! The only one who's given her no inclination that he's in the fight is Yuusuke -and that just makes him all the more cuter and gentlemanly>< xD Kaname begins to make moves and I'm just not a fan of him or his buddies...not that he isn't a decent guy, just way too cavalier for Ema's good.
Brothers Conflict (OAV) Not really good I got a laugh out of them, that's about it lol
Cardcaptor Sakura (TV) Masterpiece
Cardcaptor Sakura The Movie 2: The Sealed Card
Cardcaptor Sakura: The Movie
(The) Cat Returns (movie) Very good (dub & sub)
(La) Corda D'Oro - primo passo (TV) Excellent
(La) Corda D'Oro ~secondo passo~ (special) Decent That was a waste... they might as well've made a second season, but no. They wanted ppl to buy the game instead-_____-
Dance with Devils (TV) Worst ever The songs...just pure torture... And the ending...they could've at least made up for the horrible songs and put the 2 together somehow!!!!!
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (TV) Very good
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Movie: Mugen Train Very good
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc (TV)
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train Arc (TV)
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Swordsmith Village Arc (TV)
Devils' Line (TV) Excellent
Diabolik Lovers (TV) Not really good Ep 1: Well, this is interesting.... I've never seen/heard of a plotline like this before. Kudos to sparking my curiosity, so I'll watch #2 to see where this goes. Ep 2-5: Now I find it almost crystal clear that all these guys have serious mommy issues and they're taking it out on her. BUT, there's something behind the reason why she was sent here cuz she's most def not normal. Ep 6-7: Yep. Definite mommy issues. Confirmed via Wikipedia that this is another anime adaptation of a visual novel....so many of these lately, I need to be more careful.
Diabolik Lovers More, Blood (TV) Weak Why did I bother? Truly, I'm glad I skipped to the episodes that actually mattered.
Earl and Fairy (TV) Very good
Emma: A Victorian Romance (TV) Very good
Emma: A Victorian Romance Second Act (TV) Very good
Escaflowne: The Movie Excellent
Fruits Basket (TV 1/2001) Excellent
Fruits Basket (TV 2/2019) Excellent
Ghost Hunt (TV) Very good (dub), Excellent (sub)
Ghost in the Shell (movie)
Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle (movie) Good

Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom (TV) Very good
Hakuōki: Record of the Jade Blood (TV) Good
Hana Yori Dango 2 [Returns] (live-action TV)
Hana Yori Dango Final (live-action movie)
Hana Yori Dango [2005] (live-action TV) Also watched the 25 episode Korean live-action series, but I like this one better. It follows the manga better (not that I've read it, but wikipedia seemed pretty good with this one) and the lead characters are much more aesthetically pleasing...the other 3 I'd've switched with the Korean actors XD. Not to mention the theme music was BY FAR much less annoying than the Korean one... Also, the Korean one seems a bit more fantastical considering that Yuki and the guy she helps have their own subplot. As much as I liked it -I really did, it had nothing to do with the manga. The ending of the 2nd season of Hana Yori Dango was ridiculous in it's own right, but the anime (and Korean live-action) had a really weird ending, too... Don't know what it is with this particular story (the directors seem to love taking liberties with this one), but the Japanese one was definitely the most Cinderella-like. So, with all other things considered, Hana Yori Dango is much better than the others and I'll recommend it first before the others most def.
Handsome na Kanojo (OAV) Good
Hetalia - Axis Powers (TV) Excellent
Hiiro no Kakera - The Tamayori Princess Saga (TV) Very good
Hiiro no Kakera - The Tamayori Princess Saga (TV 2) Masterpiece
Hotarubi no Mori e (movie) Very good
Howl's Moving Castle (movie) Excellent (dub & sub)
Inu X Boku Secret Service (TV) Good
ItaKiss (TV) Decent
Itazura na Kiss (live-action TV drama) So-so
Junjō Romantica (TV) Good
K (TV) Excellent This is different and refreshing in comparison to many other animes out at the time of this release. You're instantly swept into the action and rivalry between HOMRA and Scepter 4. You know something's not quite right with Shiro's situation, but you can't quite figure it out just yet. Very intriguing and addictive! Definitely check this out :)
K: Missing Kings (movie) Excellent This is an excellent through-way to Season 2. It answers the "what happens now?" question and introduces the root problem hinted at in Season 1. Definitely watch this before Season 2!!!
K: Return of Kings (TV) Masterpiece This was epic!!! While Season 1 focused mainly on HOMRA's dynamic and the mystery of Shino, I really enjoyed getting to know Scepter 4's characters better. Just the overall character development was excellently done. The social/political values could not be ignored (by me) and added a very poignant element to the overall story. If there was room for a third season, I'd say "go for it", but the ending was very final. Thus, I shall have to renew my search for my next great binge. WATCH IT!!!
Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress (TV) Very good
Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits- (TV) Very good I seriously think I might want to own this
Karneval (TV) Very good I really want a second season...
Kiki's Delivery Service (movie) Good
Kimi ni Todoke - From Me to You (TV)
Kokoro Connect (TV)
Kono Oto Tomare!: Sounds of Life (TV 1) Very good
Kono Oto Tomare!: Sounds of Life (TV 2) Very good
Kuromukuro (TV) Decent

Ep 1-2: this is ludicrous... it's nowhere near believable in any capacity!


Ep 3-14: and yet, I returned to it and I might as well finish. This latest episode rubs me the wrong way because of how the 2 female protagonists are portrayed: headstrong, impulsive and carry out rash plans of action that earn them the condemnation of their male counterparts. Not very happy about that...actually quite disappointed. It emphasizes how backwards the alien race is regardless of having superior weaponry/technology at their disposal. That is all for now.

Ep 15: and again, with the severe punishment of the women for their failure as a follow up to last episode's chauvinism...The men didn't have that fate since they live by "kill or be killed", so it seems they want to mete out a punishment to make the women wish they had fought to the death. As you can see, this really rubs me the wrong way

Finished: Okay ending. Not really depressing, not happy ever after. Decent/realistic
Library War (TV) Excellent I heard about this in high school and thought that it wouldn't do libraries/librarians justice (I wanted to be a librarian). Now, I AM a librarian and this series ain't half bad! It's ridonculous, but it works. Why?

The characters' relationship may be the main focus, but I found that it provided much needed somewhat-over-the-top comic relief to the main plot: the serious threat to (more like the actual endangerment of) freedom of speech/expression especially through printed media.

Library War: The Wings of Revolution (movie) Very good
Library Wars (live-action movie) Excellent
Library Wars: The Last Mission (live-action movie) Very good
Love Stage!! (TV) Decent I mean, this was an exact replica of the manga (not that I'm complaining). It didn't run for very long and there hasn't been talk of a second season, which leaves readers waiting for more... Could've been better thought out. Still cute. Didn't waste my time, but I felt like I was watching the manga instead of reading it. Weird how I have a problem with that.
Love*Com the Movie (live-action movie) Very good
M3 the dark metal (TV) Decent Ep1 Interesting... I'll watch another. Ep2-8 They classify this as horror... In some instances, yes, I'll agree, but it's more sci/fi than anything else. A dark sci/fi -if you know what I mean. For the horror part, I can't really disclose much since it's actively involved with the plot and would spoil almost half the season (which I don't want to do). Ep9-15 This is going way too slow for my liking, but my hopes are gunning for answers next episode. If they aren't there, I just might drop the show. It had potential...what the hell were they thinking?!?!?! Ep16 Finally!!!!!! Everything is starting to make a twisted sort of sense!!!!! Not sure what I should be thinking anymore, but this is better than the rest of the episodes combined. The audience is not kept in the dark anymore as to what's happened and I'm very happy, but still wary as to what's in store...doesn't look like anything good. Ep17 I want that girl to get her head examined!!!!!!!!! She's manic!
Magical Warfare (TV) Good Ep 1 Kinda reminds me of Fairy Tail, but not really... It's different in it's own way, so I'll keep watching. Finished IT'S NOT OVER!!!! I wish I could hex those who think it's a good idea to make an unfinished light novel/manga series into an anime!!!!! People -like me- are left to either throw these into our distant memories (aka forget about them) or try in vain to acquire the printed version for closure. That is all. You have been warned.
Maid Sama! (TV) Good
Meiji Tokyo Renka (TV) up to ep 9. This is unique and adorably funny. Reverse harem:)
Midnight Occult Civil Servants (TV) Very good
Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun (TV) Very good
My Little Monster (TV) Decent saw the OAV too...more satisfying than the official ending
My Love Story!! (TV) Very good
Nabari no Ou (TV) Decent
Neppu Kairiku Bushi Road (special) Decent
Noragami (TV) Good Ep 1: Looks good. Unique story line that doesn't keel over and die the second it's made clear. I'll def keep watching. Ep 2: This had me laughing pretty hard at one point. Good plotline, too. Def keeping this going! Done I want a second season!!!!!!!!
Nozomi Witches (OAV) Decent

Tada Never Falls in Love (TV) up to ep 10
Terror in Resonance (TV) Excellent Ingenious plot and well thought out characters. I'd recommend this to anyone who wanted something different. Wonderful soundtrack starting with the opening theme:)
Tokyo Ghoul (TV) Very good
Tokyo Ghoul √A (TV) Very good
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 (TV)
Toradora! (TV) Decent
Twin Star Exorcists (TV) Very good Up to Ep 42:Couldn't help but keep watching as it had some very unique takes on the onmyouji practice... The relationship between the 2 mains is ridiculous at times due to over-stretched out tension. JUST ADMIT SHIT ALREADY!!!! And then, all of these little tidbits that are kept from the "twins" for the stupid purpose of "There's nothing for you to worry about. Just give birth to the miko." Like the miko would solve the world's problems the instant it was born. HA! Also don't appreciate the manga still running while the anime is created-___-
On the story itself, it's reminiscent of Bleach, M3: The Dark Metal, and something I can't think of at the moment. Sigh.

Ep 49: Well, that was quite a ride... Not really appreciating the morphed/tainted/corrupt version of Senmei they created. It makes for a serious plot twist, but a bit over the top. Still like the plot tho. Very interested in seeing the ending.

Vampire Hunter D (OAV) Good
