DanMachi

8/10
I can't believe I haven't done a review on this anime but since the new season is coming out soon with Bell-kun it seems like and appropriate time to do this review.

For those of you who don't know Dan Machi or (Is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon) is a video game esk world where Bell the main hero is training to aspire to become a hero of the dungeon that he lives next too. Apparently there are a lot of them but this is the one we're interested in. Bell is a young man who was like many main characters has a past with a long lost parent that inspires him to act in the current era. After that child hood he came across the goddess Hestia whom is his current familia though, in the anime it has not disclosed how he got to this point with Hestia it does at least show that he is happy in his current situation with a massive crush on the 'Sword Princess' of the village.

I think there are a lot of things going for Dan Machi and honestly the only thing I really haven't liked is the lack of backstory on Bell and how slow it has been to come out with an actual second season...I guess this will be a two parter as I will do what was the 'Sword Princess' anime next week. Though, I did like the ambition to try something new I just think that was the wrong way to go about it. However, on the flip side this anime does produce one of the most satisfying kill scenes I've ever seen it pulls you into the moment and really makes you feel like you're there watching the fight up close and personal.

Bell and his compatriots are a funny bunch of characters they seem like likable people and are generally pretty compelling to follow in the story as at least I'd like to know more about them. Something that is quite interesting to follow is Bell's powering up as this is similar to a video games there are level's and Bell has been one of the fastest ever to grow which will pose a multitude of questions for not only him but, if it will effect Hestia's familia will it grow or will there be hardly any recognition of them? It will be fun to see in the actual season two of Dan Machi.

All in all, Dan Machi is a fun-loving actin anime with some good comedy in it. The story is fairly compelling and is actually a very good reference for monsters dungeons and other mythical esk things. Unfortunately if you cannot get past the amount of video game logic in this anime you will not like it. Some people cannot stand it and its pretty hard to follow if you're not already into it so this anime is not for beginners unfortunately so if you're looking to get your buddy into this you should probably slow your roll and try something a little easier for them to understand.

Till next Friday if you like what you see leave a comment or share with your buddies!

8.5/10 Ever wonder what happens to the hero after the story is over? Well this anime is here to show you just that! With Akatsuki defeating the 'Satan' of another world he is returned to his world after reaping the benefits of his new found powers along with his reward of taking custody of Satan's daughter. With Akatsuki returning to his world he is forced into the Babel program which helps people integrate into society with their new found powers like a tournament setting more or less. During this Akatsuki will fight other people with similar powers to his to see who really is the best 'Hero'. With some fan-service here and there this action show should be enough to tide you over while you wait for a new show to come out! Lets get this straight Akatsuki is the hero I would be if I was a hero lax a fuck and really carefree. He is the protagonist you want in any anime as he is not afraid to take advantage of any situation no matter how weird it may be thoug...

Death March

7.5/10 Hey guys, I'm back with yet another anime review. Something a little different this time as we're going to review one that isn't actually complete yet. I thought that people were really ragging this anime down with no chance and because of this I have decided to do a review even though, it is not finished. Let's jump into this one right away this one may be longer than others as I try to argue a better opinion to this anime than it's previous reviewers. Death March is about a game programmer named Satou(or Sazuki Ichirou) that is suddenly transported into another world with some gimmicks from the game he was creating tagging a long for the ride. Many people and I do mean many people have consecutively shat upon this anime without really ever giving it a chance. While their concerns are certainty noteworthy and a lot of their arguments valid here is what they aren't really telling you. One of the many things that has happened in the past year or...

Interviews with Monster-girls

8/10 Heading back into the lighter things this anime is about a teacher that wants to learn more about the "Demi-Chan's" that live in our world. Things like vampires, werewolves, succubus, and other mythical beings are genetic defects in this world. This is a light-hearted anime made for people who want to relax and chill out with a good laugh here and there. This show mostly follows the teacher Tetsuo who wants to make a journal of various Demi-chans that are from around the world. He is fairly reliable, likable, and is pretty smart as far as anime main characters go. There are some attempts at fan-service and romance but, this show mostly sticks to its' guns with the whole just being a show about interviewing thing. Which I have to admit is a nice change of pace. I like my monster-girls as much as the next guy but, recently it may be too much so, this is a nice new take on it considering the fact that they even tried to get all scientific about it. The main s...
