Welcome to the latest edition of Animation Quick Look! It’s actually been awhile since I’ve watched an anime, and I’ve had this on my “to watch” list for awhile, so it seemed like a good a time as any. In Kill La Kill, how well you do in Honnouji Academy determines everything. Your general social…
Welcome to animation quick look, you know the drill. In short Fate/Zero is Dragonball Z, but extremely fucked up. Before I get to that, let me lay down the basics. Centuries ago, powerful wizard families created a powerful artifact that granted wises called “the holy grail”, the problem was, it only granted one wish to…
Welcome to animation quick look, where I watch smart satire, serious drama or just something plain weird as long as it’s animated, and tell you if it’s worth checking out. Animation and Superhero satire are no strangers to each other. The Incredibles is probably the most well-known example of this but you also have shows…
Welcome to animation quick look where I watch a few episodes of something animated and tell you if it’s worth your time. In the year 2022, a hotly anticipated massive MMORPG, Sword Art Online is released and snatched up by gamers around the world. What makes Sword Art Online special is it’s “Nerve Gear” VR…
Welcome to animation quick look where I review of a few episodes of an animated show be it from foreign lands or home grown. In The Devil is a Part-Timer! (yes the exclamation point is part of the actual title) tells the tale of a demon king named Satan. He attempts to take over the…

Welcome to animation quick look, where I watch a few episodes of something animated and tell you if it’s worth investing your time in. After trying something western and something my wife really enjoys I wanted to try a show more in my comfort zone. I think everyone has a formula they really enjoy even…
Welcome to animation quick look, where I watch a few episodes of something animated be it anime, Saturday morning cartoon or something more along the lines of Archer or Family guy and tell you if it’s worth your time. Ouran High School Host Club is honestly what would probably happen if someone from Japan watched…
Welcome to animation quick look, in short I watch a few episodes of an animated series and tell you if it’s worth a damn. Last week, I reviewed Attack on Titan. It was fantastic but also brutal so admittedly I was looking for something a little lighter. Blood Lad is about Staz, a powerful but…
A lot of people think anything animated (with the possible exception of stuff on Fox/FX) is kiddy fare meant to sell crappy toys. But animation is just a film style. There is kid stuff, drama, sci fi, procedurals, historical epics, comedies and so on (and ok lots of weird ass porn, but this isn’t going…
