While there are great individual episodes here, the awkward execution of its larger plot leaves this arc falling just a little short of being the whole sum of its parts. ― With the first arc of Digimon Beatbreak doing a good job of setting up the show's foundations through its episodic format, and the second digging a little deeper into the darker sides of its setting through a more tightly focused p...

While Beast of Reincarnation doesn't quite reach the heights of its truly brilliant inspirations, it still accomplishes more than enough to prove itself as a genuinely excellent game in its own right. ― NieR: Automata is a top contender for my favorite video game of all time, so I am of two minds when I see some of these more recent games that are so clearly inspired and influenced by it. On the one ...

games

At the end of the day, while Echoes of Aincrad was an easy game for me to play and enjoy, it is a difficult product to recommend without including some major caveats. ― I have to admit that I have maybe been too hard on Sword Art Online. In the 2010s, I was still finishing up college; I had only just recently gotten back into anime, and fancied myself quite the S.A.O. hater. Back then, it was easy to...

There’s a difference between “being real” with your audience and calling a rant your motivational speech. ― If there's one type of story I'm quite fond of, it's stories about other artists. From Look Back to Blue Period, they often serve as a window into the creative's mind. If “write what you know” is practically law, this is just taking that literally. And while that could come off snobby, recent t...
