Mobile Suit Gundam 00: Part 1 Review

While Mobile Suit Gundam 00's deep political intrigue, wooden dialogue and reflection of real world problems may make this harder to get into at first, it does offer some great mobile suit action.

Silver Spoon Season 2 Review

Overall, this season of Silver Spoon continues to offer the fascinating, entertaining and delightful series we know and love. A coming-of-age story complete with lovable animal antics - this series is not to be missed and belongs in everyone’s collection.

Goblin Slayer Season 1 Review

Overall, Goblin Slayer offers a dark fantasy series with plenty of blood and guts flying around. If that’s your cup of tea then you’ll certainly enjoy this one, but failing that, there isn’t a great deal of substance here.

My Hero Academia: School Briefs Volume 3 Review

Overall the third volume of My Hero Academia: School Briefs is a must-have for fans of the franchise. With such a large variety of stories, there is something for everyone this time around. The bonus chapter based on the fantasy ending is worth buying the book for all on its own!

Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online Part 2 Review

While I didn’t end up being a massive fan of Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online, I can certainly see why it gathered a solid fanbase. If you enjoyed the first half of this series then you’ll love this second half, but those who weren’t as keen won’t have their minds changed.

Fate/Apocrypha’s second half does well to bring its story to a conclusion, pitching in with some fantastic fight sequences and art direction, all the while showing some good character development along the way.

Beastars Volume 1 Review

Overall, the first volume of Beastars is not going to be enough for you to decide if you like the series or not. There are certainly some interesting concepts in play and it’s a unique story, but I’m not convinced that’s quite enough for every reader.
