What I'm watching

-- ONGOING --

Vinland Saga: A young boy joins the Vikings to slay the man who murdered his father.

                         The saga takes him many years across many locations.

                 This is an amazing series, and turn boys into men.

The Ossan Newbie Adventurer: An OP guild clerk quits to become an adventurer.

                                                       Everyone underestimates him because he's 32. That's not old damn it.

                               This is a fine series to switch your brain off to.

I'll Become a Villainess Who Goes Down in History: A girl gets isekai'd into her fave otome game.

                                         She trains and studies hard to be the villainess.

                                                 This is cute but lacking in romance. It's alright.

Beheneko: A knight is reincarnated as a behemoth kitten and an elf adopts him.

           The kitty can absorb the skills of the enemies it eats, becoming even more OP.

           Cute cat + big titty elf girl = dinner sorted, though it's cringe like Inukai-san's Dog.

From Bureaucrat to Villainess: An old man gets isekai'd as the villainess in an otome game.

                              He tries to play the role but his dad mode slips through.

                              This is alright. You'd be a fool to drop it after 3 episodes.

Clarkson's Farm: The trials and tribulations of Jeremy Clarkson tending to his farm.

               He cocks up every step of the way, with hilarious results.

               This is some great stuff.

Kakushigoto: A mangaka father raises his daughter and has to hide his raunchy work from her.

                        He has to keep up the cherade. It's heartwarming stuff but pretty slow.

                        I quite like how this was adapted.

Top Gear: Three British blokes, plus the Stig, talk about cars and test them out.

           This takes them on adventures, doing interesting challenges with hilarious results.

           This is an amazing series but you best steer clear when the hosts are replaced.

-- 2025 --

My Hero Academia S07: Heroes gather to prepare for war against the Paranormal Liberation Front.

                           This is still good stuff.

\Ranking of Kings: A deaf-mute prince is assisted by a shadow to become worthy of his title.

                 He may be a shorty but he is fast and has the potential to become the best king.

                 This is quite good. Don't let the art style fool you. It can get pretty sad.

Nina the Starry Bride: A girl resembles a deceased princess, so the prince seeks her as replacement.

                       She goes from street rat to royalty and can't act for shit.

                       This is alright but the political intrigue is boring.

DANDADAN: A guy and girl try to prove the existence of ghosts and aliens and both are right.

                 They team up, along with her GILF medium grandma, to take on the occult.

                 This is a great series. Good character design and animation.

The Hunted: Million Dollar Heist: 18 contestants rob a mock-bank and go on the run.

                           Those who evade capture after 20 days get a share of $100k.

                           I've always liked The Hunted series and this is good as usual.

The Legendary Hero Is Dead!: A loser accidentally kills the hero and take possession of his body.

                             He is forced to do the hero's quest: slay the Demon Lord.

                             This may be mid but it's funny as. Catchy OP too.

Kitchen Nightmares (UK): Gordon Ramsay seeks to improve poorly performing restaurants.

                       They're usually declining because of bad food and even worse staff.

                       I prefer the UK version to the over-edited US version.

Beastars - season 3: It is Legoshi vs the gangsters that run the underground black market.

                  The eponymous beastar is on the case as well.

                  This is good stuff but the smooth animation still makes me ill.

Re:Zero season 3: Part 1 of season 3, adapting Arc 5.

                This is good stuff other than the questionable new character designs.

Mission: Yozakura Family: A guy marries a spy girl and must deal with her family.

                       He has to help them with their missions and daily lives.

                       This is fine silly fun though the beta MC makes it cringe at times.

Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki: A loser gamer guy is assisted by a girl to better himself.

                         He has to level up his appearance and habits to become a normie.

                            This is pretty good but it has a lot of beta male cringe moments.

Kotaro Lives Alone: A young kid lives along next door to a manga artist.

                                   The little smart-ass is independent but still childlike, which is nice.

                   This is pretty funny but it also gets pretty sad. It's pretty alright.

Ranma 1/2: A young martial artist is cursed to change genders when exposed to water.

             The quest is to cure the curse but an arranged marriage adds to the mess.

             This is a great remake of a classic series.

True Beauty: A teen girl decides to master makeup, which leads to positives and negatives.

                       She attracts the pretty boys and petty bitches.

               This is a girly anime. It's pretty good.

Food Wars: A guy joins an elite culinary school to be a great chef. 

                     The glorious recipes make the customers (and viewers) have orgasms.

             This is the best gourmet show there is. It's a good one.

Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back: Ramsay has 24 hours to fix a restaurant per episode.

                                       This is Kitchen Nightmares speedrun edition.

                                                                               It's a good show but it is over-edited to hell.

Berserk of Gluttony: A useless guy learns his 'gluttony' skill that absorbs others' stats and skills.

                            The catch is that he gains no experience and has to keep killing or go mad.

                    Yep, it's an 'everyone underestimates the OP MC' story. It's alright.

Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle: A cute comedy of a kidnapped princess trying to fall asleep.

                                She aims to better her living experience, with funny results.

                                This is cute and more funnier than expected.

Insomniacs After School: Two teens with insomnia bond over napping.

                                            The girl is outgoing and the guy is withdrawn, but they are cute together.

                    This is one of the best romance series that I've seen in quite a while.

Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip: Three top chefs travel around and get into mischief.

                               The emphasis is on crafting fine local food.

                               This is a good one if you can stomach it.

BLUE LOCK season 2: More footie action, this time covering the U-20 arc.

                         The production quality has dipped, hence the 'PNG LOCK' meme.

                         This is still good even if it's a slideshow at times.

Demon Lord, Retry!: The creator of an MMO gets isekai'd into his game as the demon lord.

                      He uses his admin powers to become an OP MC, but it ain't easy.

                              This is alright; it's like a worse version of Overlord. 

The Irregular at Magic High School: Two siblings enter a magic academy and get split up.

                                The MC is OP but has his reasons for hiding his power level.

                                It's like Harry Potter but with incest siblings. It's alright.
