Vinland Saga: A Review

How it started... It was about two years ago when I had just finished watching Attack on Titan till it was released and was looking for a new anime to watch. I was looking for something that had kind of a dark, moody, depressing kind of feel to it. When I went to my brother for a suggestion, he suggested the anime in the title of this blog, Vinland Saga.  Now, at the time, I had just started watching anime and only had watched about 3 to 4 animes including AoT. I did not watch any trailers at that time since the animes suggested by my brother were all 10/10 and trusted him for this one as well.  Season 1 I excitedly went on my browser and searched for Vinland Saga and clicked on the first episode. On completion of the first episode, I thought it did not have that "dark, moody" feel to it that much. But as I progressed through the next 5 to 6 episodes, I found a hint of those vibes that I desired, but not too much.  Since I was suggested this anime in accordance to the fee...

A Place Further Than The Universe: A Review

There are a lot of underrated animes out there or, you know, good animes that do not get enough recognition. But the anime series, A Place Further Than The Universe, despite being quite highly rated in MAL(My Anime List) and ranking at 120 with a rating of 8.52 at the time of writing this blog, is an anime that I, personally, do not hear about much in the anime community. Now, I say this because animes like Demon Slayer(Kimetsu No Yaiba), One Punch Man, Neon Genesis Evangelion have less rating than the anime A Place Further Than The Universe, but are still talked about way more than the anime that has a higher rating than them. So yeah, I'm not blaming anyone or any community nor the anime themselves, neither am I saying it's wrongly rated. I'm just saying that it's kind of counter-intuitive tbh. Before we proceed to the review, let's have a look at the overview of the anime for the ones who have not watched it yet: Filled with an overwhelming sense of wonder for th...

The Broken Eminence in Shadow Protagonist

There are many anime viewers, maybe most, who dream of living the life of their favourite, or any other, anime characters at least once in their lifetime where they save their school from terrorists or fight against evil or anything like that. I know I do.  But who would've thought, even in their wildest dreams, that we would see an anime character living the life like that of an anime character. The one I am talking about, is none other than Cid Kagenou, from the anime series, "The Eminence in Shadow" or " Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! " in Japanese, which quickly garnered attention due to the innate quirky yet badass nature of the anime.  If you haven't seen this anime yet, you are missing out. Big time. This anime is pretty out of the ordinary. Check it out as soon as soon as you can. [Spoilers Ahead]  The anime(just some "recitation") : A guy, Cid Kagenou, intentionally acting as a background/unimportant character in his own anime; but h...

Your Name | Kimi no Na wa

Your Name anime. Also known as 'Kimi no Na wa', is a critically acclaimed masterpiece movie released in 2016 which was directed by Makoto Shinkai who is known for making movies with stunning animation and unique storylines. This movie is a mesmerizing blend of romance, drama and the supernatural. My thoughts: Your Name is one of the movies that made me tear up. Every blink of the eye feels like a waste. Every frame of the movie looks perfect for a wallpaper. It's easily an 11/10 for me. It's... It's up there.  There are very few anime movies that even come close to this masterpiece. This movie grips the viewers heart in such an unique way that by the time the movie ends, they feel like they were in a different world. The story, the direction, the animation, the twists, everything is just perfect. And the music. The songs and the osts are absolutely out of this world. The songs of the movie, like Sparkle, Nandemonaiya, Dream Lantern and many more, from RADWIMPS, just...
