January 10, 2024 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
Rouge loves her chocolate bars as she eats one during a performance.

You might wonder what you will get when you combine Carole and Tuesday, Blade Runner, and Kamen Rider. You get this show. That is people’s impression, although I didn’t watch any of those.

Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete – Episode 1 – The “Magical Girl” Utena Doesn’t Want to Become

January 3, 2024 by Chikorita157 4 Comments
As expected, Utena gets startled by one of the girls who is a magical girl, secretly.

I admit that I am a big fan of Mahou Shoujo anime. What if you recruit an ordinary girl to the dark side that opposes the magical girls she loves? Well, you get this.

Content Warning:  Mention of S&M.

Watashi no Oshi wa Akuyaku Reijou – Episode 1 – Getting Isekai’d and Rae Falls In Love With the Villainess

October 2, 2023 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
It’s not very common to see the main heroine already confessing to her female love interest.

As expected, the moment fans of the yuri genre have been waiting for is finally here. Ever since Watashi no Oshi wa Akuyaku Reijou/I’m in Love With the Villainess was announced last year for an anime adaptation, I read 4 volumes of the manga in anticipation. Does the first episode live up to my expectations? Absolutely. …

Miyo, our lovable and biggest Yuri fan must be excited for this season.

Yuki Yuna wa Yusha de Aru – Episodes 1-4 – First Impressions

July 19, 2023 by Chikorita157 4 Comments
Of course, this show is much more than just your typical CGDCT anime.

Since there is not much airing this summer, it’s apparent that I’m going through my backlog. This time, I decided to watch Yuki Yuna wa Yusha de Aru, w magical girl warrior show with slice-of-life moments, at least in the first season.

The show gets darker, especially in the later seasons. Enjoy the happy moments while they last. It gets darker in the second half. Thankfully, we are only covering brief thoughts about the first four episodes. Basically, the introduction to the whole team, the meaning of the Hero Club and what the girls are fighting.

Atelier Ryza – First Impressions

July 3, 2023 by Chikorita157 2 Comments
Ryza is not enjoying her time working on the farm.

As expected, we have yet another adaptation of an Atelier game. This time is, Atelier Ryza as Reisalin Stout decides she has had enough of being forced to do farming work and harvesting. With that, she wants to go on an adventure with her friends, which gets her into trouble.

Yes, this episode is two episodes long, clocking in at 48 minutes, but it’s almost how I remembered it. Sure, the animation is a step up compared to the first adaptation of an Atelier game, namely Atelier Escha & Logy.

BanG Dream! It’s MyGO!!!!! – Episodes 1-2 – Anon’s Quest to Form a Girl Band

June 29, 2023 by Chikorita157 1 Comment
Sadly, things didn’t went well with this girls’ band.

Believe it or not, three Bang Dream It’s My Go episodes were released today. However, there is no way I can possibly review three episodes in one day. With that, I’m doing two each week, which should reduce the burden. After all, I work in the office on Thursday. After watching the first two episodes, how did the spinoff fare?

Note: I will be covering two episodes a week instead of three. It’s a bit too much. If that becomes too much for me, I’ll just cover one episode at a time. This just adds to this dismal season.

Short Summer 2023 Anime Season Picks and Plans

June 27, 2023 by Chikorita157 7 Comments
That feeling when there is hardly any CGDCT and yuri shows airing this season.

You might be wondering, where is the Summer season preview? Shouldn’t it be out by now? This summer is probably the worst anime season ever in recent years, excluding 2020, for obvious reasons. You can see why?

D4DJ All Mix – Episode 1 – Lyrical Lily’s New Monthly Event Plan

January 8, 2023 by Chikorita157 3 Comments
With Lyrical Lily singing hymns, it’s obvious that there is yuri potential for the setting alone.

While I haven’t finished the first season of D4DJ since I only watched two episodes. Still, it’s probably not entirely required. I can still watch the second season since it focuses primarily on Lyrical Lily. But, as the name implies, will it live up to the potential yuri aspect?

From my knowledge, the first season focused on Happy Around, Peaky P-Key, and Photon Maiden. I’m missing a bit, but I will probably catch up soon. The other two, Merm4id and RONDO, are in the OVA episode, which I will probably cover later this week. For now, I’m going primarily blind.

Midseason Impressions – Uchi no Shishou wa Shippo ga Nai and Kantai Collection, and Twitter Alternatives

November 6, 2022 by Chikorita157 6 Comments
Artist: ryoutan

Now we are at the halfway point of the fall season. So with that, I will share my mid-season thoughts on Uchi no Shishou wa Shippo ga Nai and first impressions for Kantai Collection Second Season.

Also, I will share what I am working on for the Twitter alternative, as things have been going downhill since Musk took over. Given the rising amount of hate speech and chaos with advertisers pulling out and layoffs over the past week, some are concerned that the downfall of Twitter is near. I thought of that and started to create an alternative to it.
