Sword Art Online: Alicization Part 1 Review

A decent story where Kirito is in a virtual world in which time moves at a different pace is once again overshadowed by writer Reki Kawahara's use of a violent rape scene.

Mysteria Friends Review

While being connected to the Rage of Bahamut mobile game presents a barrier to entry, and its very slow, methodical pace may bore some viewers, Mysteria Friends is a beautiful slice-of-life series with a surprisingly wholesome yet playful take on the yuri genre.
