Read full review on AniList →Sonny Boy is a series that if you ask someone to interpret it for you, you will get a different answer every time. It has incredible re-watch value and cemented itself as my own personal anime of the year and among my most favorite of all time. It is not hard to understand what it is trying to show…

Read full review on AniList →I recently did a re-watch of this show. The purpose was to make an AMV using the show, which you can find [here](https://youtu.be/0IDyoA6wmT8). I had enjoyed the show before, but I was a bit concerned that I liked it mostly because of its novelty. It is quite visibly and tonally different from mo…

Read full review on AniList →The shortest summary I can give for how I feel about this is that they made me cry really hard to ******* math rock.
