Funimation will go offline for good on April 2nd--and with it more than a few anime will disappear from streaming services entirely. Here are our picks on what you should watch while you still can.
Elden Ring
The Empyreans
I watched 34 anime premieres for the new season. Here they are ranked from best to worst. biggestinjapan.com/index.php/20...
I was all about Meiji Gekken--right until the superpowered assassins showed up.
What happens when you mix the legend of Aladdin with a school full of Japanese delinquents? Bucchigiri.
Snack Basue might be the most "by Japanese people, for Japanese people" anime to hit the West in years.
The Weakest Tamer shows how amazing direction can elevate what would be an average story to an entirely new level.
Alright, it's time to choose which anime the ANN team (including myself) will be reviewing this season. So vote for the ones you'd most like us to watch/suffer through.
Yeah... it's...
It's a thing that exists.
While fun, bad directorial choices knock The Witch And The Beast down a couple of notches.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Delusional Monthly Magazine: the worst anime of the season!
Cherry Magic is a yaoi romance that shows that even mind reading powers don't make you a master of interpersonal relationships.
Metallic Rouge throws you right into the deep end and expects you to come back next week just to understand what happened.
The two of the other ANN reviewers loved Sengoku Youko. I was bored to tears.
While I love the premise, it feels like Doctor Elise wasted half an episode on characters and events that weren't needed for the story and will never be mentioned again.
I highly respect Villainess Level 99 for committing to the bit--even if it wasted half the episode.
I quite enjoyed this wholesome culture-clash romance. The other ANN reviewers did not. (Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable!)
I don't care about the plot. I don't care about the unlikeable characters. I don't care about The Foolish Angel Dances with the Devil.
This week's Tsukimichi feels more like a filler episode than a premiere.
'Tis Time for "Torture," Princess seems to be built around one core joke. I'm worried about what will happen once that joke overstays its welcome.
With time loops and a villainess protagonist, 7th Time Loop is an easy pick for my favorite premiere of the season so far.
I'm enjoying the continued exploration of a world lacking in free will in Banished From The Heroes' Party's second season.
Do you think the idea of a Power Rangers villain doing random, normal things on his day off is the height of comedy? Then you won't be as bored as I was watching Mr. Villains Day Off.
Yeah, I've never understood this either. If there's something I want to do I do it. Sure, I ask my friends and/or family if they want to join me but are people really so codependent that they can't do things on their own?
I gave The Strongest Tank's Labyrinth Raids a mediocre 2.5 out of 5 stars--and I was the kindest of our reviewers.
A Sign of Affection is the love story of a deaf girl--and it's also about how so many of us feel trapped in our little worlds.
