Bleach Chapters 678-679-680 - The Future Black-THE END-THE END 2 Review/The Seven Deadly Sins Chapters 178-179-180-181 Mini-review

Written by:  Pomelote

Hope turns to despair, as it has a tendency to do. But the darkest hour is always the one before the dawn - that's what an inspirational-quote-a-day-calendar told me, anyway.

Fairy Tail Chapter 491 Review - Mother and Child

Written by Shiggins

Well, isn't that convenient?

I'm going to be saying this a lot during this review, so I want us to get used to the phrase right now. It's not a horrible chapter, but it's one full of lucky charms and any other cereals with luck in them. So let's take a picture and give it a practice, shall we?

Well... isn't that convenient?

Flying Witch Anime Review

Flying Witch Anime Review
Written by: ClayDragon
From left to right: Nao, Chito, Makoto, Kei, Chinatsu and Akane.

There’s a certain genre of anime, known as ‘healing anime’, which exists purely to sooth and relax the audience. A lot of these shows tend to fall under the slice-of-life format, and for one reason or another, I’ve never really watched a healing anime before. This is probably due to the fact that these shows can easily be labelled as being dull or boring, but after watching Flying Witch, I’m more than prepared to give this type of anime another chance.

Fairy Tail Chapters 489 & 490 Review - Universe One & Fairy Tail Zero

Written by Shiggins

The Seven Stars

The Monstrous Six

The First Dinner in Five Days

The Fourth Guest

The Third Seal

The Two of Us Together, Forever and Always

And now it's time for Universe One and Fairy Tail Zero.

The countdown is complete and... that's what we were going to?

Kinda feels a bit unlikely that you would call your magic "Universe One". Was someone just trying to not break the number chain?

Fairy Tail Side Story Review - Stone Age

Written by Shiggins

Hiro Mashima tackles gender politics.

Let's go ahead and assume Hiro Mashima is an odd duck. When he's bored, he gives us a great side story chapter. And considering the heavy drama we've been getting recently, it's only fitting that Mashima-senpai would choose now for a chapter filled with fanservice, laughter and... some very odd conflicts between genders in this surprising chapter.

Oooh I have a bad feeling... Please be more Flintstones than bad-porno.

Best Female Characters of Fairy Tail (As Voted by Fans)

Written by Shiggins

Fairy Tail has some great women.

So out of curiosity, I did a small poll to see if anybody agreed with me about who was "the best". After quite a few votes and the results constantly changing, I got my answer. And now, as voted by you all, here is the "official" ranking of the Fairy Tail women and what makes them so popular to the general public. Oh and why I love them as well, because I'm the writer and I can say what I want because I'm a big baby. Ha-ha!

Humans only so piss off, Carla.

Fairy Tail Gaiden Raigo Issen Chapters 1 & 2 Review

Written by Shiggins

Thanks to Anonymous for bringing this to my attention!

Gajeel, Sabretooth, Wendy Magical Girl, the... girls again for some reason, and the officially-canon Zero have now got a successor in the form of Laxus' spinoff, which is set after Tartarus but before Avatar. In other words, a perfect place to have a spinoff! Unlike the others, which just seem almost like someone rolled a dice, this placement feels completely earned and justified. I've been wanting to hear more about what happened to Laxus between Tartarus and Avatar but Mashima-senpai won't let me know so this is the next-best thing!

Huh. Laxus + Daft Punk... Holy hell, does anybody else think that would work amazingly?!
Note: I'm only reviewing these two chapters. Not the entirety of the series. I may rank the spinoffs in an article one day, but for now it's this.
