Original chaos: Mega Mecha Soldier of Karakuri Castle review
The Mega Mecha Soldier of Karakuri Castle is the 7th One Piece movie and I watched it as part of the 2014 One Piece: Movie Collection 3. My view of One Piece is that the movies tend to be better than the episodes. It’s a high action anime in which every character is bigger than […]

Really? The Devil is a Part-Timer review
The Devil is a Part-Timer is an action-comedy. I enjoyed the action. The same can’t be said for the comedy. The background is straightforward and seems quite good. Satan is the king of his own island in a different realm and with his four generals effectively terrorising the neighbouring human islands. That’s until an incredibly […]
Starchild confirms new K series
I really enjoyed K but in my I feared there wouldn’t be a sequel. The story leaves us with some big issues still to be sorted through and a greater understanding of a clever mythos that begs to be explored. There is a movie, which I’m yet to catch, called K: Missing Kings, which sheds […]
