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.

Overlord III Review

Overlord III is stronger than the previous season in its approach to exploring its world and showcasing the advancements in Ainz's kingdom-building. Where its flaws lie are in some wonky CGI and a lack of tension in places due to Ainz's level of control.

Dai Shogun – Great Revolution Review

While Dai Shogun's backstory speaks of some potential, it ends up going nowhere with its harem plot, with fanservice that is played too straight to be funny, while its animation leaves a lot to be desired.

BAKI Part 2 Review

BAKI continues to be a hyper-violent spectacle of muscle and gore. It's not to everyone's taste but if you're looking for some ludicrous action anime junk food to consume, then this might be what you're hungry for.

Dragon Ball Super: Broly Review

Dragon Ball Super: Broly is a thrilling action film, pitting Goku and Vegata against the hulking Broly with some great animation work and a solid backstory that eases in newcomers to the franchise. For all its outrageous action that fans will love, those coming into this fresh will find the elongated fight scenes go on for far too long, perhaps resulting in them switching off in its final moments.

Seven Mortal Sins Review

A low budget affair, Seven Mortal Sins has plenty of fanservice that will please ecchi fans; however, there are plenty of other shows that better serve the series’ action and goofy comedy without the sex.
