Regarding Transformers, I say that you can jump into Masterforce or Victory without having seen the brunt of G1 before it. I wouldn't recommend it for Headmasters, but even that one isn't so dependant on what came before that all the early G1 is a prerequisite. Hell, Headmasters actually tried to reference what came before in a condensed retelling (taking some liberties cause the fates of Optimus and Megatron weren't totally clear to Japanese audiences with the delay of the animated movie). Victory does reference Masterforce to an extent that it would be more optimal to watch Masterforce first.

I watched Zeta Gundam episode 7 last night, and oh man. This show has such an interesting and complex lore to it. I also love how it, once again, starts in medias res and fills you in on what changed between MSG and Zeta as the story goes on (and as such, I feel like I'm going to be firmly in camp "watch 0083 after Zeta" once I get to it.)

Completely on a whim i ended up rewatching the first 8 episodes of Code Geass yesterday (dub because it's all I could find), and man it holds up better than I thought. I would perhaps argue it's only gotten better with time, even!

Masterforce from what I have gathered is technically the same world as Headmaster, the first of the three Toei Transformers shows, but Headmaster is not a must watch to enjoy Masterforce. Now to watch Victory you probably will have to watch Masterforce cause of certain minor elements that cross paths with each other.

I finished season 4 of the Castlevania anime.

It was trash. Felt very rushed and the plot and characterization relies on you pretending that half of season 3 didn't happen.

Good to see that Netflix Originals continue to majorly disappoint me.

I finally finished Samurai Jack on DVD a while ago as I'd gotten the series set. Watched Series I - IV on Boomarang.

I've been watching Gokushufudou lately and I like it a lot. A lot of people complain about the animation, but I think it works with the show. I also decided to give Scissor Seven a shot. I'm not sure how I feel after the first episode, but I liked it enough to try the second episode.

In watching Naruto Shippuden on Toonami, I realize how dense I can be! Given the similarities, I feel like such an idiot for not realizing long before the on-screen revelation that Akatuski Member "Tobi" is Obito! Seriously, all the evidence is there in the names! How did I miss it?

Recently saw both parts of Sailor Moon Eternal on Netflix. I’ve only seen the dubbed version of the first part, but it does feel like a step down from the dub of Crystal.

Dai No Daibouken has been fun these days.
