Girls Band Cry Review - Immaculate Immaturity
Girls Band Cry is hilarious, visually excellent, has an awesome aggressive tone, and has great emotional elements that play into the characters, atmosphere, music and themes. I loved this anime and highly recommend it, it completely lives up to the hype.

The finale to this runaway train roller coaster! It was a great and satisfying finale albeit with some minor issues.
Spring 2024 Anime Season Roundup
This was an excellent season! Lots of great slice of life between Jellyfish, Girls Band Cry, Yuru Camp, and Euphonium. We got some awesome action and cool worlds from Train to the End, Kaiju no.8 and Dungeon Meshi. All of these shows had great comedy but Konosuba mostly knocked it out of the park. I'm looking forward to next season, though not as many for me as other seasons.
Train to the End of the World Ep 11 Review- On and Off a Train Towards the End.
The girls bust straight into Ikebukuro, giving us some great action, characterization, and setup for the finale.
Train to the End of the World Ep 10 Review- Artistic Expression Galore
Time for episode 10, where we get an artistic conflict in Shiinamachi. We got a very funny and goofy episode this time. This will likely be the last hurrah of truly jovial shenanigans.
Train to the End Ep 9 Review - Youka’s Re-Introduction
This episode had a lot of exposition and setup, but I don’t mind as we have had a lot of action packed episodes and this is the stuff I really wanted to get into.

Train to the End Eps 6 + 7 Review - Insensitivity and Degen Zombies
Train to the End 6+7 Review. Shizuru is an asshole and zombies are degenerates.
Train to the End Eps 4 + 5 Review - Bad Company
Back with the Gatan Goton gang for episodes 4 and 5. We focus on the girls dealing with a tiny military dictatorship ruled by a nerd in the process of fixing Akira, who gets her butt mushroom pulled out and goes baby mode. These two episodes also showed us that the gloves are off when it comes to absurdity and its dark themes.
Dissecting the Kaiju No. 8 OP (Non-Spoiler for Past Ep 2)
The Kaiju No. 8 Opening is fantastic and gave me so much to analyze and theorize!

This is a fine anime, but just does not suit my tastes enough.
