Media Name: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 9 Release Year: 2022 Creator:  Jessica Gao Production Company: Marvel Studios Original Network: Disney+ Finished Watching: 1st December 2022 My Rating: 3/10 Going into this show, I heard nothing but negativity about it and I would have to say that, the hate for this show is justified. The CGI on She-Hulk herself is really ugly and looks like a meme edit. Quite a lot of the dialogue and humour was cringeworthy, especially the twerking post-credits scene. Some of the episodes could be quite boring to watch as well. Jennifer Walters could also be quite annoying as well. The writing was sometimes bad as well. Basically the only redeeming qualities were that we got to see what happened to the Abomination 14 years after The Incredible Hulk left his fate ambiguous and a year after he had a brief appearance in Shang-Chi. I also liked the Daredevil episode and thought that the finale was decent. It also...

Media Name: Ms. Marvel Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 6 Release Year: 2022 Creators:  Bisha K. Ali Production Company: Marvel Studios Original Network: Disney+ Finished Watching: 27th November 2022 My Rating: 5/10 Going into this, I didn't really know what to expect since I've never seen Ms. Marvel in any other piece of media and I've never read her comics. I'd have to say that this show was mediocre. The pacing was way too slow which made the show drag. It felt like they forgot at times that they were making a superhero show because there was so little action occurring. It also felt like they set up too many villains to the point of where it got confusing as to who was meant to be the main villain. The final episode was really messy as well though I'd have to say that I enjoyed it more. There were some funny jokes however sprinkled throughout. Overall, while I wouldn't say this series was terrible, I also wouldn't say it was great either.

Media Name:  The Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special Media Type: TV Special Series: MCU Release Year: 2022 Special Director:  James Gunn Production Company:  Marvel Studios English Network:  Disney+ Runtime: 42 Minutes Finished Watching: 25th November 2022 My Rating: 8/10 Given how much I like the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, I was really excited for this special. I'd have to say that it delivered. I found it to be really funny with the plot of Drax and Mantis kidnapping Kevin Bacon especially being amusing. The acting was really great as well. The CGI was surprisingly great given how CGI in other phase 3 MCU content has looked. The writing was also really good and the special was sometimes emotional. The only bad thing was the rotoscoped 2D animation for the beginning and ending which should have just been live-action in my opinion. Overall, this was a great TV special and gives the MCU a sign of hope.

Media Name: Bokurano Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 24 Release Year: 2007 Series Directors:  Hiroyuki Morita,  Kazuyoshi Yaginuma Production Company:  Gonzo English Network: N/A (Direct-To-DVD) Finished Watching: 13th November 2022 My Rating: 8/10 Going into this, I didn't really know what to expect as I found out about it through the opening being included in  Kumikyoku Nico Nico Douga . Plus the fact that the show is relatively obscure didn't help that much either. Nonetheless, I decided to give it a try. I thought it was really good. I liked the psychological element. I felt like the fight scenes were really fun to watch. I also liked the writing in the show and most of the characters. The animation was pretty decent as well. I found some of the characters to be somewhat annoying or just unlikeable however and the pacing was really slow though I understand that it needed that to establish each character. I also think that it sucks that the ending is...

Media Name: Treehouse of Horror XXXIII Media Type: Episode Series: The Simpsons Release Year: 2022 Season Number: 34 Episode: 6  Episode Director:  Rob Oliver Production Company:  Gracie Films, 20th Television Animation, Dr. Movie English Network:  FOX Finished Watching: 31st October 2022 My Rating: 9.5/10 This has to be probably the most hyped that I have ever been for a Simpsons episode I've ever been and I would have to say, it delivered. I found it to be really funny with basically all of the jokes landing. The animation was great with the animation by DR. Movie in the Death Tome segment being absolutely fantastic. The Pookadook segment was probably one of the scariest Treehouse of Horror segments of all time. I loved all of the classic references in the Simpsons World segment. I also thought that the Bob's Burgers crossover was nice to see even if it was short. I loved the Death Tome segment the most though that may be because I love the Death Note anime. The ch...

Media Name: Serial Experiments Lain Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 13 Release Year: 1998 Series Director:  Ryūtarō Nakamura Production Company:  Triangle Staff English Networks:  KTEH, TechTV, Funimation Channel Finished Watching: 24th October 2022 My Rating: 9.5/10 I first found out about this anime through its soundtrack and later on, I first found the OP from a VHS rip of KTEH's broadcast of the show that aired around 9/11 and loved it. So I decided to watch the whole show. Goddamn was it amazing. I really enjoyed the psychological aspect of the show which reminded me a bit of Evangelion. The animation looked great most of the time. The writing  and characters were also really good. I loved the music, especially the OP. The show also did a great job of building up tension. Basically the only problem I had with it was that it could sometimes be a bit confusing however most of the time it wasn't. Overall, I'd have to say that this is one of the best a...

Media Name: Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 10 Release Year: 2022 Series Director:  Hiroyuki Imaishi Production Companies: Studio Trigger, CD Projekt English Network: Netflix Finished Watching: 12th October 2022 My Rating: 8.5/10 I've never actually played Cyberpunk 2077 nor have I played any of the tabletop games but I decided to watch this anime anyway because I love Studio Trigger's anime and the show also looked great. I'd have to say that I really enjoyed it. The animation was really good as per usual Trigger standards. I really liked the music with both the OP and ED being really nice songs. The action was really good along with the writing. The characters were all unique and really well-written as well. One of the bad things is that the ending felt really rushed to me. Some of the major characters died with nobody seeming to care that much and were really brushed over and quite insulting. I also know that this is how it was in the...

Media Name: Made in Abyss: The Golden City of the Scorching Sun Media Type: TV Series Season: 2 Episode Count 12 Release Year: 2022 Series Director:  Masayuki Kojima Production Company: Kinema Citrus English Networks: Hi-Dive, Toonami Finished Watching: 2nd October 2022 My Rating: 8/10 I only got to watching the first season and the third movie in preparation for this season and I would say that I loved them. I would have to say that this season was probably the weakest part of the show for me so far but I still enjoyed it. The writing and characters were both really good with the new characters also being nice additions to the cast. The animation was really good with even the CGI looking nice (though a bit jarring at first). The usage of gore in the series paired with horror continued to be really well done. Some of the issues with this season were that there was way less horror and gore than in the first season and the movie. Another problem was that there was quite a bit of...

  Media Name: Bee and PuppyCat: Lazy In Space Media Type: TV Series Season: 2 Episode Count 16 (3 Remake, 13 New) Release Year: 2022 Creator: Natasha Allegri Production Companies: Frederator Studios, OLM Inc Original Network: Netflix Finished Watching: 24th September 2022 My Rating: 9.5/10 (New Episodes) 8/10 (Remake Episodes) This show was what made me watch the original series which if you've seen my review of season 1, you would know that I loved. This season was also amazing. Technically speaking this season is an anime since it was co-produced by OLM Inc who also made the anime adaptations of Komi Can't Communicate, Pokémon and ODDTAXI. I would have to say that the new artstyle is great and works really well for the series. I actually don't have a preference between this season's artstyle and season one's artstyle since they're both great and look really nice. Since season 1 was on YouTube and this season was on Netflix, there were 3 episodes made as remake...

Media Name: Yurei Deco Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 12 Release Year: 2022 Creator: Masaaki Yuasa,  Dai Satō Production Companies: Science Saru English Network: Crunchyroll Finished Watching: 19th September 2022 My Rating: 8/10 I really enjoyed this series. Science Saru has made some great anime with their own unique art style and this is definitely one of them. I felt like the characters each had their own unique personalities. The backgrounds in each episode were also really well drawn with the CGI ones reminding me of The Amazing World of Gumball. Each of the storylines were really entertaining. Some of the jokes within the series were also quite funny. I also really like the music within the series especially the ED song. Pretty much one of the few problems with the series was that the final episode felt really underwhelming with it being confusing and not really wrapping stuff up the best. It also felt like they couldn't think of how to handle the final confron...

Media Name: Bee and PuppyCat Media Type: TV Series Season: 1 Episode Count 13 Release Year: 2013-2016 Creator: Natasha Allegri Production Company: N/A (Pilot), Frederator Studios (Series),  Original Networks: Nintendo Video (Pilot), YouTube (series) Finished Watching: 11th September 2022 My Rating: 10/10 I originally found out about this series years ago while browsing one of the Frederator YouTube channels however I didn't watch it for some reason. I only ended up watching it when the second season (Lazy In Space) released on Netflix this year and I absolutely loved it. The characters were great and entertaining, the animation was also great and looked especially good in the fight scenes. I really enjoyed the nice and relaxed slice of life tone that the series contains most of the time. I also thought the voice acting and the music were both really good as well. I would definitely consider re-watching this series at some point in time.
