I won’t be surprised if there’s another round of “it wasn’t that bad” complains about Chi Chikyuu’s depiction of the Inquisition this week. Though the series isn’t getting that much discussion in English so maybe the complainers have moved on to flashier targets. Nowak and his career have been out of the spotlight for a …
Ooi! Tonbo 2nd Season – 10
I mentioned it last week, but this caddy guy with Tonbo’s group (I mean I assume it’s a group, but we never seem to see the other players) really needs to shut up. Seriously, just put a sock in it. I don’t know how these things typically work with amateur events in Japan but …

Patron Pick Fall 2024: Negaposi Angler (Negative Positive Angler) – 10
It’s sort of ironic that an episode about a typhoon was the calm before the storm. But of course that’s exactly how it’s playing out with Negaposi Angler. Now that Pandora’s box has been opened there’s really no way to restore the old order. We know exactly what these last couple of eps will be …
