Build Fighters 15.

I guess it was inevitable that this series would eventually start slipping. From Gunpla Mafia, to Moon Moon dressing up as a ninja complete with katana and spying on people everything started to get very silly, even in context.

Luckily then, just when I thought the show might start slipping into Yu-Gi-Oh Land it delivered the very best fight of the entire series. Honestly it is one of the best fights I've seen, period. Fist pumping, goosebumps inducing intensity.

Fenice is a gorgeous looking Gundam and it was nice to see a more serious side to Fellini that lived up to his own reputation. I was getting a little tired of the comic relief side they kept forcing upon us. Cannot wait for the finals now.

I've gotta ask is that a condom by the TV Tokyo logo?

Watched the first ep of Disk Wars, wasn't as horrible as I expected it to be, honestly at moments I actually thought it was pretty good. Now where can I get me a DISK Wars Captain America figure? He looks sweet.

Build Fighters 16.

Although it was a little on the nose, some good character focus is really something this show was in dying need of, so it was nice to get that from Reiji and Aila. Plus as ridiculous as the whole Undercover Gunpla Cop thing is, Sei's Dad is pretty cool.

Disk Wars 2.

The show captures the characters pretty well, but it's weird getting used to them all speaking in Japanese. Earth's Mightiest Heroes (fantastic show by the way) was criticised for trying to replicate the voices from the movies, but I felt that worked as those are the voices we've come to associate the characters with. It certainly works better than them all speaking in Japanese.

The animation is so-so but the fight sequences are still pretty decent. It certainly made me smile in how they've subtly 'Japanified' the heroes, with them shouting out their attack names dramatically, even when simply throwing a shield or something as simple as that.

Japan, taking simple things and making them awesome.

Captain Earth 5:

I really don't know how I feel about this series yet.

On one hand, I love world building and some aspects of the show. On the other hand…it feels like the show is doing too much at once and not really doing enough to expand on upon what they've already built.

I don't know, each episode they reveal one conspiracy after the next but I still don't know how it's all relative. My biggest question involves the Kill T Gang.

They need to bring their machines to earth, but if they're already quite skilled at piloting earth based mobile weapons and they're able to manipulate machines..why exactly do they need them? I get the impression that they can, if they want bring down Earth's defences on their own if they really wanted to.

And now there's the fact that apparently they're either cannibals or aliens that feed on humans.

I don't know…it's not the worst mecha anime I've seen I mean…I managed to enjoy Valvrave all the way through after all. I really do want to see how this series goes it's just…it raises more questions with no real interest in answering any of them.

So i watched an episode of Attack on titan and... I'm not impressed, i'll admit it has a beautiful artstyle but overall i just find myself looking at the screen bored and Horrified.

If you watched the episode that just aired on Toonami, then it was also just episode 2. Which was a pretty boring episode. Except for a little Armored Titan action in the beginning, nothing happens. So you missed the interesting bits of episode 1 and saw what's probably the most boring episode of them all. After it jumps to the "present" to get things rolling in episode 3, things get interesting.

Read the manga. It is better paced.
