This past weekend's episode of My Hero Academia was so much better than the last one. I think they could have shaved off some of the "apologetic crying teacher" and make it one episode instead of two-and-a-half. That said, it was much more enjoyable and made my heart so happy. Yes, it was weird… but […]

Let me start by saying that My Hero Academia "Win Those Kids' Hearts" was… okay (you can check out my review of last week's episode here). I think it was good in terms of setting up for the next one, but not my favorite in regards to content. While I enjoyed certain aspects, it moved […]

Last week's episode of My Hero Academia was an attempt to return to real life after saving Eri… you know, being a student while saving the world. They always have these type of light-hearted episodes between story arcs. However, this time there was something different: our heroes in training left part of themselves on the […]

With My Hero Academia S04E14 "Bright Future", viewers got the "sequel" we were hoping for – wrapping up and showing us the aftermath of the fight against the Shie Hassaikai. Even after three amazing episodes, it all felt like it was building up to this one on so many levels. Talk about an incredibly emotional […]

With last week's episode of My Hero Academia, a new trifecta of best episodes has taken over the show. Hands down: truly amazing. Just two words needed. While Mirio might have stolen the spotlight, Deku regains it with this battle. Together with Eri, they were invincible. This episode was so incredibly badass – including Deku's […]

This week's episode of My Hero Academia once again kicks off exactly where we left at. Also once again? It slowed down to IV drip pace as expected, as now it just feels like it is slowly ticking down until the moment sh*t hits the fan. Now no one can complain about the story being […]

Before the masses descend upon me with fire and pitchforks, I am aware that speaking of live-action anime is taboo (insert bloody scream from the distance). However, I do believe that they could be fun if done well and I think there are some anime that lend themselves for live-action shows or movies. In the […]

This week's episode of My Hero Academia picks up exactly where things left off last episode. It was a little bit slower and with a bit more exposition than I have seen this season so far – though once again, I was expecting this as the season continues to offer different perspectives. Another episode that […]

Starting where it left off, this week's episode of My Hero Academia continued the quality momentum started with the season opener. It was a bit slower-paced than the past couple of episodes, with a bit more exposition than I have seen this season so far. However, the character development was definitely worth the words. I […]

This week's episode of My Hero Academia started off pretty much where it left off – and then took off like a rocket from there. While I was not happy we did not get amuch Class 1-A, I really appreciated the little moments they pepper in every once in awhile to show they are still […]

If you are like me, either most of your family lives very far (or in another country) or are working most of the holidays. Add to the fact that I was born and raised outside the U.S. so not exactly having the kind of connection with Thanksgiving as others do, and you can see how […]

This week's episode of My Hero Academia brings things up to the tipping point. Though it was the slowest episode so far, the ending saved it somewhat for me. Things seem to be picking up in our heroes' world and it looks like the villains' plans starting to take shape. Again, while a slower paced […]

Some fans in the northeast seem to think that the convention season ends in October with New York Comic Con (NYCC), but there are a number of folks who would push back on that. Count LeftField Media as one of them, taking over the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center this weekend for Anime NYC 2019. […]

The fourth episode of this season of My Hero Academia was truly an amazing one – and I will confess that it nearly had me sniffling. It was wonderfully paced, with writing and dialogue handled beautifully throughout. So far, they have done a great job with not over-doing it with exposition, adding in some excellent […]

I often struggle with two things: finding new anime that keeps me glued to the screen and finishing shows. Demon Slayer totally destroyed both of those issues. I could not stop watching and now I have spent the last day sulking around Crunchyroll because I don't know what to do with myself or what to […]

The second episode of My Hero Academia season 4 "Overhaul", did not hold back – building on the season opener and setting a great vibe for this season. It starts off packed with action with a confrontation between the villains, and then brings us back to U.A. to follow up on the Work Studies as […]

Leading chat show host, broadcaster and comedy presenter Jonathan Ross will be introducing screenings of anime shows In/Spectre and Somali and the Forest Spirit at MCM Comic-Con London in just over a week's time. The screening will consist of the first two episodes of In/Spectre, a supernatural mystery thriller based on the Japanese novel written […]

Funimation's My Hero Academia season 4 premiered this weekend, and it definitely did not disappoint – serving as an effective "welcome back" to the series for viewers. I am usually a fan of the transitions between seasons and arcs but can be cautious with how they're handled – but no worries this with "The Scoop […]
