The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 1 Part 2 Review

The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 1 Part 2 Review
The Rising of the Shield Hero has proven itself a worthwhile isekai series. The series isn’t perfect and the criticisms levelled against it are fair, but if you can look past its issues, then there is fun to be had here. With a further two seasons yet to come, fans of the show have a lot to look forward to.

The Dragon Dentist Review
The Dragon Dentist is an interesting anime but suffers from a disjointed plot and short runtime. However, if you’re interested in dragons or looking for something a bit more unique to watch then this is certainly worth picking up.

The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 1 Part 1 Review
While The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 1 Part 1 gets off to a grim start there is undoubtedly an interesting isekai story underneath it all. How much you like it will depend on how much you can put up with plot conveniences and injustice toward the protagonist. However, if the premise sounds like your kind of series then it’s certainly worth checking out.

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations – Part 3 Review
Boruto’s third set arrives on UK shores and with it contains the end of the story arc started in the previous set, as well as a nostalgia-filled graduation exam mini-arc. But is it all throwbacks like the cover of this volume will have you believe, or does it have more substance than that?

Welcome to the Ballroom: Part 2 Review
This second part of Welcome to the Ballroom gives a satisfying conclusion to this arc of Tatara’s story, and despite some faults with its pacing and brand of humour, delivers an exciting showcase of the spectacle of competitive ballroom dancing.

Wise Man’s Grandchild Review
Wise Man’s Grandchild is a fun isekai adventure. While the series doesn’t offer anything particularly new, it does a good job of bringing the best parts of the genre together. With some impressive animation and an entertaining collection of characters, this is one every fan of the genre should have in their collection!
