It’s been two weeks since our last visit with the motley crew of heroes, rivals, and frenemies of Kamen Rider Build, and they’ve chosen quite the cliffhanger to leave us dangling from. With the Touto science lab about to be invaded by the terrorist organization known as Faust, loyalties on every possible side are being […]
Fukuide Kei is back with a fiery vengeance in the latest episodes of Ultraman Geed. After recent adventures saw him stumbling through the streets as a penniless vagrant, things weren’t looking so hot for the dark Ultraman Belial’s dutiful underling. Despite the big red guy having treated him like utter crap, Kei’s not taking his […]
When the lead heroes of four of Tatsunoko Productions’ most beloved anime series are plucked from their separate stories and thrown into the CG animated blender that is Infini-T Force, the result is a surprisingly sensitive, character-focused musing on life, which just happens to have a truckload of explosions. Having been fed a steady diet […]
Well, that settles it. With this episode ending the way it does, leading us into a direct continuation for next time, that means Kamen Rider Build has had ten straight episodes of pure plot with absolutely no narrative pitstops.

Where we’re done setting up […]
Well, here we are for another Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger review. And while I’m still very much enjoying this spacey super-team series, I have to be honest and say that I’m a little disappointed with one key factor. You guessed it, kids. It starts with “luck” and ends with “eeee” . The sad thing is that […]
This has to be some kind of record. Looking back, I can’t recall a single Kamen Rider series that opened so strongly, with such consistent quality across the board, for a period as long as eight straight weeks. There may be some shows that started amazing but petered off a bit, others that steadily arc […]
As we hit the gong on this drama-filled half-hour, the identity of Night Rogue is finally revealed, an angry Ryuuga goes ape, and a sad panda fights a losing battle in a strange land. It’s just another day at the mad scientist’s office for Kamen Rider Build, in Episode 7! For those of us still […]
Voltron: Legendary Defender is back at it, with another burst of hilarity and excitement in the show’s fourth season on Netflix.
