Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatte Iru Darouka / First Impressions / Series Introduction / Snapshots

Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatte Iru Darouka – 01

「冒険者(ベル・クラネル)」 (Bouken-sha (Beru Kuraneru))
“Bell Cranel Adventurer”

Good animation, pacing, and likable characters are juxtaposed by a plot that’s uninspired and, frankly, a little chauvinistic. I’m not sure how I feel about this one on the whole, though I don’t hate it so far … with some caveats.

Final Impressions / First Impressions / Retrospective Look

Monthly Impressions – March 2015

As we’re all getting pumped up for the spring season, let’s not forget to reflect on the winter shows which recently ended. This post has been delayed (partially due to me) because we wanted to get all the shows wrapped up before doing our final impressions. This is reflective of most of the series our writers have finished this season and hopefully we can give you a good idea of shows you’ve missed which we thought were worthwhile. If there’s anything that we missed, please feel free to discuss those shows below and maybe it’ll give us some suggestions of what we should catch-up on. With that said, happy spring everyone! Hope it’s warm where you are!

Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken / First Impressions / Series Introduction

Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken 2 Sure-me – 01

「思い出うごうご」 (Omoide Ugougo (7.5))
“Wriggling Memories”

While it may have been a little slow for a first episode, I’ll give the writers props for not making it so otaku focused as the first season’s was. That and I’m still impressed with how much they managed to pack into a mere 3 minutes.

Final Impressions / First Impressions / Nanatsu no Taizai

Nanatsu no Taizai – One Helluva Ride

The Seven Six Deadly Sins.

A shounen adventure through and through, Nanatsu no Taizai avoids many of the pitfalls of typical never-ending shounen to give us a story that never lets up, never gets boring, and never lets the excitement diminish … all while giving us a real conclusion with world-changing effects by the end.
