Classic Anime Review - Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

Written by Shiggins

10 years today!

In honour of Gurren Lagann's 10th anniversary, I am releasing my first "Classic Anime Review", where we look back at anime that have debuted at least 10 years ago and judge the hell out of them with today's standards. This review has been a long time coming and I'm giddy just thinking about writing it. Let's talk about what makes Gurren Lagann so fantastic to watch, while brutally stomping on even the tiniest flaws. It's review time!

Note: Minor SPOILERS.

Fairy Tail Chapters 527 & 528 Review - Emotion & Dragon of Magic

Written by Shiggins

Um... I have questions.

I was hesitant to even write this review because of the amount I have to deal with in my real life and how confusing some moments were, but then I remembered I have you people to talk to me and help me out. So while I try to guess and fumble about in this review, you can all scoff and correct me since you're oh-so superior to me.

Speaking of things that are superior to me, holy shit!

Fairy Tail Chapter 526 Review - My Name Is...

Written by Shiggins

The fan theories were right!

I never like it when the internet figures out the secret beforehand, because it gives them a right to brag and act like they're superior to the series. I only like it when I make a prediction beforehand, and I was starting to notice it myself this week as well, so I suppose the main thing I want to say here is... I was right and that's all that matters.

Cana has a point, and the fandom hates him for this.

Digimon Adventure Tri Part 4: Loss Review - What a Wonderful Digital World

Written by Shiggins

Part 1 Review - CLICK HERE

Part 2 Review - CLICK HERE

Part 3 Review - CLICK HERE

Note: This review is as SPOILER-FREE as possible.

We're back for the episode that literally debuted on my birthday! It's Part 4 of the Tri saga, and finally we're starting to get some real answers. While not perfect, Part 4 gave us plenty to discuss, praise, criticise and shudder in utter disgust because OH MY GOD, HE LICKED HER FACE!

Between this, Next Order, Cyber Sleuth, the original series... Digimon definitely love their metal dinosaur of death.

Fairy Tail Chapter 525 Review - Why Was His Majesty's Child Not Loved?

Written by Shiggins

Hi Larcade. Bye Larcade.

No wasting time here, let's get right into it! Gildarts is pissed and August is grinning like a madman who just discovered what a bidet does, which is just making Gildarts even angrier. Ignoring Cana's warning, Gildarts charges and the two clash. August asks Gildarts why, even though parents are meant to love their children, that Zeref doesn't love his own child.

........Brexit? (Sorry, I couldn't resist. The joke was too easy)

Fairy Tail Chapter 524 Review - Black Future

Written by Shiggins

WHAT THE FLYING FUCK DO YOU MEAN "LAST ARC"?!

No, I'll talk about the chapter in a moment since it was actually pretty awesome and gave me an actual shock, but let's focus on the recent reveal that this is supposedly the final arc of Fairy Tail. Apparently, there is an official website for the upcoming Fairy Tail movie "Dragon Cry", that is to celebrate the series' 10th anniversary. And on this website, they say that the manga is in it's final arc. I WANTED E.N.D, NOT END!

Natsu is gonna be in the movie? Fucking spoilers, man.

The Truth About Saitama Fighting Anyone

Written by Shiggins

Since the anime adaptation of "One Punch Man" was released in 2015, the fandom community has essentially been on fire due to their burning passion for the gag-like shonen series about a bald man who is so powerful he can defeat all his enemies with one single punch. Thanks to the stellar animation by Madhouse, the amazing soundtrack that fits perfectly with the crazy action scenes, and the comedic monotone of the protagonist Saitama, the anime was a hit and One Punch Man has enjoyed plenty of success even to this day two years later.

Me trying to look like I don't care about One Punch Man for... supremely childish reasons.

Fairy Tail Chapters 522 & 523 Review - Gray's Trump Card & Will Fate Burn?

Written by Shiggins

Double the content, double the fun?

Yes, Mashima gave us two chapters in one week. And yes, it was a mixed bag. And yes, I am here to review them. We got twice the amount of chapters to get through, so let's not waste time and get started. It would be mighty.... ice.... of me to do so!

Why does this feel like one of two times I've seen Gajeel this week?

Fairy Tail Chapter 521 Review - The Mightiest Mage

Written by Shiggins

Not the fight we needed, but the one we deserved.

Finally, I can be more positive for once... This war arc really does feel like it has been going on for a while now, but the end is clearly getting closer as we wrap up almost all the encounters with the Spriggan 12 and move to focus on the remaining foes, although I have my doubts if August is really the only one left to be a factor in this arc.

The second-best scene of the chapter.

Fairy Tail Chapter 520 Review - Dragon Or Demon

Written by Shiggins

I'm not sure, but I think this was a cliche...

That's actually going to be a running theme this week, as I attempt to actually figure out exactly what happened, why it happened and what will happen next. It's a confusing chapter this week, but you're here reading it so you expect me to make some sort of sense with this nonsense, don't you? Sigh... Fuck it, here goes!

Yeah, after the events of last week, I need a hug too.
