An interesting way to show adolescence
7 June 2020
No complex script or full of ulterior motives, just a creative way of presenting teenagers' decision-making difficulties and their day-to-day consequences.

Very fun and with a little bit of "romance" and sensuality.

Well mixed, but fun
7 June 2020
The feeling of confusion follows almost every episode, where in part it looks like an anime of obscene desires, in the end it also proves a story of people, discovering who they are and what they want.

A fun way to approach the subject, it is worth watching.

A little bit of terror, a little bit of suspense and a little bit of fantasy
4 June 2020
A story is presented, small flashes of not-so-happy images are presented in the middle of the plot, giving atmosphere to the plot. A good performance, some loose ends, but it brings some surprise in the end, without putting heavy scenes and close to the real.

If you like suspense with a touch of horror and fantasy, a great choice.

Meaningless, just exposure
19 May 2020
Initially the story looks good, a promise in childhood, a romance and an unusual action. But in the course of the anime it is just that, and it becomes an excuse to show sexual actions among teenagers.

Well forced, and it gets worse in the second season, where the goal is lost even more and focused only on sexuality.

Somewhat immoral and forced
10 May 2020
With countless attempts to hide its real purpose, time travel, unexplained events, but unfortunately it seems only excuses to show sensual and sexualized scenes.

Well forced, you can have a laugh but nothing serious.

We Never Learn: BOKUBEN (2019–2020)
8/10
Simple but complete
3 May 2020
A hard-working boy trying to earn his college credits, a simple storyline, but one that captures each character presented. Genius in search of love, and creativity in search of logic.

It is very worth watching, you will fall in love with each one and hope for who should have the final romance.

Deep and impactful
3 May 2020
Everything starts looking like a joke, it gets molded with each episode, some tears, but the depth doesn't end, the characters are developed, their stories are shown and we are more passionate.

It is worth watching, talk about reparation and freedom, the weight of our choices and the real interpretation of that.

The Fruit of Grisaia (2014–2015)
7/10
Simply incredible
28 April 2020
It starts just like any other anime, beautiful appealing characters that hide a secret and the main character without emotions. But throughout the plot, the story of each character is much more dark and profound.

It is very worth watching, between life lessons and comedy in the right measure.

School dynamics in another perspective
20 April 2020
Normal subjects of students and teenagers, between classes, clubs and romances, the only difference is that all of this takes place in hell. With a simple plot, brief but concise character constructions.

It is worth watching, fun and deals with the theme differently, great characters.

Darwin's Game (2020)

Sick and sad reality
20 April 2020
The theory of natural selection, the stronger prevails and the weaker will be subdued. This anime is based on this theory, augmented with seals, special powers of each one, reformulating the conception of the strongest.

It is very worth watching, in addition to having fun, question your conception of the strongest, or of what strength really is.

Resignifying objectives
18 April 2020
A complex and boring game for many is re-signified in this anime as something full of excitement and challenges. A construction very well made of objectives and characters.

It is worth watching and trying to understand this difficult game, especially for those who do not live in this culture.

A little of everything
11 April 2020
We have attempts to create characters, not all of them effective, well-formed and poorly formed plots and strategies, analogies with our own social problems but many skills outside the human sphere.

It is worth watching, but with possible disappointments.

Fun and that's it
11 April 2020
A little cliché when the relationship is the central idea of the anime, several attempts to create characters with problems close to the real ones, but they are only attempts and the only interesting point is the comedy.

Watch to relax, but without any pretense.

Different and Deep
10 April 2020
Outside the context of this type of anime, going to a magical world can be traumatizing, selfish and non-altruistic actions, this anime builds its script and characters very well, giving the right depth with a tone of emotion.

It's really worth watching, and Raphtalia is incredible.

Loaded with Feelings
10 April 2020
What initially looks like a basic love triangle in teen novels, gradually builds depth and desperate actions.

It is worth watching, which initially seemed just another one, turns out to be a well-constructed script with its due complexity.

Nothing but the title description
10 April 2020
It delivers exactly what it says, a fun storyline challenging monogamy with beautiful young women and the unusual use of the cell phone in a magical place.

Not bad, good to spend some time, but see if you have anything better to watch before you start.

Interesting but predictable
10 April 2020
With a cliché idea, almost always interesting battles and a well-constructed novel, he gets a little lost among the ideas he has beaten in order to find his own signature.

It's not bad, but see if you have anything better to watch before you start.

Spicy fun
10 April 2020
Inverting the roles of the invocation in another world, the invoked becomes the master and in a spicy way with the characters builds his saga.

It's worth watching, the main character's internal fight to maintain his role as demon lord is fantastic.

Overlord (2015–2022)
7/10
Interesting plot twist
10 April 2020
Initially what looked like a bad copy of Sword Art Online starts to gain relevance with a funny plot that unfolds in a way against the flow of common plots.

It is worth watching, with invincible characters and with awareness for an unexpected path.

Unpretentious Fun
10 April 2020
Students with eccentric personalities and tiny clothes, a teacher apparently unprepared with a plot that gets complicated throughout the anime. A good climax construction that makes you become attached to the characters.

Worth watching, funny situations and a special weight at the end.

Quality Spinoff
10 April 2020
It is quickly forgotten that it is a simple spinoff and with a construction of strong characters, with their traumas and the way they reconstruct themselves in the virtual world is inspiring.

It is worth watching, even without references to the world of Sword Art Online.

Accelerated resilience
9 April 2020
Good fights, a history of overcoming and belief that victory does not discriminate against your social status, depends only on your effort and opportunity.

It is worth watching, without much time to develop the characters, simplistic overcoming but a good story.

Naruto: Shippuden (2007–2017)
7/10
Dissonant
9 April 2020
It inherits some fun from the child Naruto, creates incredible expectations and has breathtaking fights, but ends in a hurried and somewhat disappointing way.

It is worth watching, but some episodes and the final fight can be skipped without regret.

The Platform (2019)
7/10
Boring or a harsh criticism of today's society?
29 March 2020
A vertical prison where the higher levels have easier access to food and the lower levels are shaken to stay alive.

With the exchange of a few words we have a glimpse of what may be one of the motivations of the film:

A vertical society where the upper levels have easy access to everything and the lower levels are struggle to stay alive.

An intriguing film that, for me, makes a great analogy to the current society, creating each scene an attempt to understand the daily life of our own society.

Whoever is at the top does not care about who is at the bottom, he changes his way of acting and becomes what he used to hate. The lack of empathy, and respect for those who are not prepared, when life puts you down to death is certain.

Issues like depression, overcoming, belief among countless other feelings are present, and in the end a hope as a message. Whether the message reaches "administration" is subjective as is our future.

Fate / Grand Order: First Order - Interesting approaches but nothing incredible
24 February 2020
Another animation from the Fate series, Grand Order can be watched as a separate animation, but the knowledge of previous animes help in understanding. It becomes a fun anime, but with little time to explore your characters he ends up ending the battles very quickly and setting aside empathy for the characters. Finally, its ending remains totally confused and opens doors for continuation, but because it is an animation it should be better scripted from beginning to end.
