Anime Reviews
This is a page where I talk about Anime series or movies that I like and give my opinion on them.
Non Non Biyori
One of my comfort anime, Non Non Biyori is a slice of life that lets you follow the life of school girls in rural Japan, with beautiful scenery, music, and stories. If you have not watched it yet, I heavily recommend it, as well as the movies.
Azumanga Daioh
An anime full of sillyness and I love it for it, it's another slice of life but it's very funny! I can relate to Osaka that falls asleep often during class, like I did. Sakaki is also relatable because she is very introverted. Overall, amazing anime with peak memes, go watch it now.
K-ON!
If you watched Bocchi the Rock, this is what probably inspired it! A slice of life music anime with awesome songs (especially the opening and ending songs), sweet characters (Yui and Azusa!), and emotional moments (the ending). It's also my hyperfixation as of writing this, so yeah love it. Absolute peak.
Nichijou
Even more silly than Azumanga Daioh, Nichijou is slice of life but with the comedy aspect on steroids, with no regards for the laws of physics sometimes. It's a masterpiece visually, with the amazing art style that it has, and story-wise, it's also very good. I also enjoyed the Manga a lot, which has more content than the Anime. Peak anime, recommend.
Naruto
Naruto & Naruto Shippuden are my childhood. Seriously it is the best anime I've ever seen. The story is incredible and the characters are so inspiring. My favorite characters are Shikamaru because of his intelligence and maturity, Kakashi for being a mentor figure, and Jiraiya for his wisdom (paired with sillyness). Every opening and ending songs are bangers. Heavily recommend this anime.
Lucky Star
Very cute anime with funny characters, especially Konata who likes manga and anime (animeception?), and the "Lucky Channel" bit at the end of every episode. This anime has a lot of talking, so much that I couldn't keep track with the subtitles at some point, which made switch to the dubbed version. But it's very fun overall, I also like the extras that were included in the Blu-Ray disc.
Bocchi The Rock
A pretty new anime that has taken off in popularity especially in Japan, Bocchi the Rock follows the life of Hitori Gotoh, who dreams of becoming a famous guitarist but can't even make a single friend. She luckily gets recruited into a band and that's where her life changes. This anime has absolute banger songs and the main character is very relatable to me. The manga is also very good. Heavily recommend it.
Serial Experiments Lain
This is an amazing anime that is a bit hard to understand, but it shows how one can lose themselves and forget who they are if they become obsessed with the online world. In the anime, the "wired" is like another space, different from reality. I recommend checking it out, but be wary that it has some mature themes like self harm and worse, so don't watch if you are sensitive.
Haibane Renmei
An underrated anime that is made by the same person behind Serial Experiments Lain. You follow the life of a girl reborn as a "haibane" which resembles angels, with no explanation of why. It explores spiritual themes and is very mysterious. It's a cool anime, with some sad moments. Overall very good anime, but a bit short.
