Granblue Fantasy Part 2 Review

Overall, Granblue Fantasy remains a captivating watch right to the end. Although the animation issues prevent me from recommending it to everyone, I still believe there is a lot to like for those who can look past these issues.

When They Cry: Rei Collection Review

When They Cry Rei is only recommended as a separate purchase if you really took a keen interest in the characters, enough to see more scenes of them being silly and content together.

Whilst unnecessary filler makes for a less enjoyable watch than the first half, The Asterisk War Part 2 still maintains the quality action of its predecessor.

When They Cry: Kai Series 2 Collection Review

When They Cry: Kai delivers a compelling story conclusion and satisfying answers to its enjoyable mystery, but is let down by the sudden drop in horror and increase of cuteness that almost ruins the unique atmosphere of the original.
