Articles by Andrew Girdwood - Page 1524

Highlighting a specific entry from the archives, on 8th December 2013 Andrew Girdwood shared a story summarised as "The set-up is familiar; a knight rides into town and soon finds himself needing to quest against a ferocious dragon in order to rescue the fair maiden. There’s enough in the plot to hold my interest but I got most out of Knight & Dragon by going back to the start, picking a different character and discovering where (and why) the story started to take a different twist.". It also was tagged with Reviews.

Demon bloodlines: A review of Blue Exorcist part 1

December 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The action kicks off pretty quickly in Blue Exorcist. Here’s how it flies for quick-to-anger but basically well-intended Rin Okumura.
