Stopping some anime reviews

We're 4 weeks into the Fall season, and now I've already decided on what to watch and post.


Although I like doing weekly reviews for everything I watch, I'm started to get behind schedule, with 3 reviews to write, and I'm not even writing about Subete Ga F Ni Naru or Gochuumon Wa Usagi Desu Ka?? (that I started watching this week). So I decided to drop One-Punch Man and Sakurako-san weekly reviews for now.

Maybe next week I'll change my mind and start posting about them again, but at least for now, I'll only talk a little about all of them in a single post each week. I'll still be writing about Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen, though. That'll give me more time to post about comics, tv shows, movies and books.

Gochuumon wa usagi desu ka?? Ep 1

Sakurako-san Ep. 2 - Where Do You Live?


Another episode, another case for Sakurako-san. As usual with detective dramas on TV, seems that this show will be following an episodic approach, with a new case each week. For now, we didn't see any clue about a major story arch here (or did we?).

Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen Ep. 2 - The Righteous Man


The first episode of Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen was gorgeous and cute. And on the second episode, we got to see some action and know more about the world.

One-Punch Man Ep. 2 - The Lone Cyborg

The first episode of One-Punch Man was impressive, with a premise based on the exaggeration we often see in anime about fights. The hero needs to be not just the strongest. He needs to define a whole new level of badassery.


SPOILERS


On the first half of this episode, a swarm of mosquitoes led by a giant mosquito-girl attacks the city. She uses the blood drained by them to get stronger and evolve. There was a little fanservice here, but nothing to worry about.

I liked the gag that Saitama can't kill a single mosquito, getting angrier each time he tries. His face was priceless, and the 'fight' was great. Also, I liked that Genos (the cyborg) saved Saitama's life once, and them, he returned the favor, as bored as ever.

The second half of the episode focused on something that probably will be the mystery of the season: a crazy scientist that turns people/animals into cyborgs. And of course, he sends his minions after Saitama. Also, after seeing how strong Saitama is, Genos decide to be his apprentice.

More villains, and more fights. The second half presents us with more Saitama and Genos fighting scenes, now against some crazy animal cyborgs. I really loved this fights as they provided great action scenes and laughs.

This episode was even better than the first one, proving that One-Punch Man is on the patch to be one of the best anime of this season.

Rating: 5 stars
