Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest Chapters 52 and 53 Review - Mind-Reading Trees and Precious Curse

Written by Shiggins

Aldowrong?

It's a real shame these chapters are as long as a typical weekly chapter, since it really renders my reviews shorter than I feel is right for a double-review. I suppose it makes them easier to review, but for the sake of pacing and development, I think I'll always be wishing for longer chapters until we go back to weekly, if that ever happens again. Anyway, no point going on about that yet again. If you remember, I wasn't very positive in my last review and this time I'm... not as bad.

First Impressions - Spring 2020

Written by Shiggins

You can't go out, so stay at home and watch anime.

Despite the issues in the real world, anime doesn't take a break and has saw fit to bring out the new anime of the season. And like I did with Winter 2020, let's take a look at everything Spring 2020 has brought out. Some are great, some are... what's the opposite of great? Oh right, Tamayomi.

Marvel Cinematic Universe - The Infinity Saga Ranked

Written by Shiggins

Disney+ has finally arrived in the UK, I'm trapped in my house, so I might as well take this time to finally write the article I was originally going to release alongside Black Widow, but then every film got delayed and so here we are... 23 movies, starting 2008 and ending in 2019, all about the world of Marvel and the heroes created in it to take on the massive gallery of villains. From Iron Man to Spider-Man: Far from Home, let's figure out which was the best and which was... the least-best. I like them all!

Obvious note: Some spoilers ahead, and only films are included. So no Daredevil here, sadly.

Onward - Movie Review

Written by Shiggins

More of Pixar's magic.

As every movie out there is getting delayed and we're entering the new Dark Age of Doom, I can do nothing else for you except recommend that, if you do gather your courage enough to see something in the cinema, make sure you see Onward. It might sound ridiculous to say this but... Pixar, you did it again! Again-again-again.

Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest Chapter 51 Review - Roaring Earth

Written by Shiggins

Mahogany-Monotony.

With Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest going back to fortnightly-monthly releases, I suppose a chapter like this was inevitable. Not only does it try to kill the fun story we've been enjoying so far, but now we're going to have for literal weeks to continue it! Oh no, are we stuck in another Mercuphobia situation already?!

That broom has officially had more screentime than Romeo. And I hate that.

Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest Chapters 49 and 50 Review - The Last Orb and The Wood Dragon God's Secret

Written by Shiggins

Well... she ain't no Fire-God-Senku.

It's crazy to realise this, but this arc on top of a giant wooden dragon is still going! And I've enjoyed it for the majority of it's time on this grey Earth, but it's certainly been a long one. We've fought Fairy Tail members, dragon eaters, witches possessing Exceeds and we've still got more to go! I might be the only person in the world to say this, but I hope we get some good downtime filler after this arc ends because the pace is crazy today!

Oh please don't lead into a Zou arc...

Hero's - Manga Review

Written by Shiggins

On your left.

Crossovers are a lot of fun, aren't they? Characters you've enjoyed in their own worlds finally meeting each other in a unique situation, their personalities and egos clashing to create conflict, and depending on the story, they either team up to take on the other enemies that probably caused their meeting in the first place, or they fight to the death. In this 10 chapter series, Hiro Mashima decided to give us his own crossover, with his three biggest series Rave Master, Fairy Tail, and the currently-running Eden's Zero. It's a very cute and charming idea, but did he possibly make a mistake?

Note: Spoilers ahead.

The use of that apostrophe really upsets me...

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) - Movie Review

Written by Shiggins

A chick(en) flick! Birds!

With the exception of some casting choices remaining the same throughout the movies, I think it's safe to declare the DCEU officially dead. And honestly, it's clearly for the better. Movies like Aquaman, Shazam, Wonder Woman and now Birds of Prey are great proof that sometimes, it's better to have a solo adventure and ignore the complications of being part of a larger universe. Especially since a story like this would raise so many questions otherwise, such as "Where is Batman during all this?" or "Why would this Harley Quinn ever stoop so low as to date Jared Leto's Joker?"

Gotta say though, I really don't like the posters.

Eden's Zero Review - The Sun Jewel Arc

Written by Shiggins

An arc that shines?

Spanning from chapter 49 to 68, the Sun Jewel Arc almost feels like the conclusion of Eden's Zero's first major quest; Finding the four Shining Stars. We've had Witch, Sister and Hermit, with Hermit easily taking the prize for best arc so far at this point, so I think most of us was expecting another "Do the thing to get the person on our party" arc. Instead we got... something better, I'd say.

Note: SPOILERS for the Sun Jewel Arc.

That's just an assault on the eyes.

Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest Chapter 48 Review - Fifth Generation Dragon Force

Written by Shiggins

Ghost in the... girl?

Yeah, I couldn't think of a decent pun there so I just gave up. Hopefully, that's the only disappointment you experience in this review, as we take a look at returning faces, scary faces and faces getting a surprising amount of violence brought upon them. So sit back, relax, and get your face ready.

Did we ever get to see Wendy train in martial arts? Was it Roshi or Jiraiya? Or... Yamchaaaaa?
