Chained Soldier Season 2 Episode 7 Review

Chained Soldier Season 2 bounces back in episode 7 with a deliberately indulgent installment that embraces the series’ guilty-pleasure identity. After a stretch of heavier plot beats and awkwardly staged action, the show leans into pure fanservice and character-driven heat — and, surprisingly, a tender emotional moment that gives the episode more heart than you […]

Tamon’s B-Side Episode 8 Review

© 師走ゆき・白泉社/多聞くん今どっち!?製作委員会 Episode 8 of Tamon’s B-Side leans hard into a familiar anime staple—the beach episode—but twists expectations in ways that reveal more about the series’ ongoing themes: performance versus reality, manufactured drama, and the messy human relationships behind idol personas. Rather than a carefree day of fun, the beach becomes a stage for production […]

Medalist Season 2 Episode 1 Review

Season two of Medalist finally returns, and while the quality remains as warm and winning as before, the rollout has been a messy one for some regions.

Wash It All Away – Episode 7 Review

Wash It All Away continues to tread its gentle, domestic groove in episode 7, delivering another slice-of-life installment that flirts with warmth but too often slips into filler. This week’s story leans heavily on a social media subplot and a playful photoshoot, giving the show plenty of surface-level charm but little in the way of […]

Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube Ep. 20 Review

© Shou Makura・Takeshi Okano/SHUEISHA・Domori Elementary School Alumni Episode 20 of Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube delivers a curious mix of charm and clumsiness—largely thanks to the return of Yukime, the ice-cold yuki-onna whose romantic fixation on Nube never fails to create both laughs and awkward moments. The installment leans into a beach-episode premise that’s equal […]

Oshi no Ko Season 3 Episode 6 Review

Oshi no Ko episode 6 leans hard into emotion rather than shock value, turning a familiar idol scandal setup into an intimate character study.
