Wild to think it's been 10 years since we started this! There's a lot of fun stuff to watch this winter season, but... there's no two ways about it. With the exception of a few scenes from a small handful of episodes, One Punch Man season 3 was a mess, which was sad to see.

On our 10-year anniversary episode we return to the show that started it all: One Punch Man.
Sadly, due to atrocious pacing and increasingly worse production values, the third season is even more of a disappointment than the second one was.
Bummer!

The first season of the Yaiba remake was super fun! It was a pretty straightforward story with a big, colorful cast of characters that shone exceptionally bright in its production. It's got great cartoony vibes and is a breezy and enjoyable watch.

The first season of Yaiba definitely was a lot of fun. Saturday Morning cartoon vibes with strong visuals, a great soundtrack and plenty of action. If you're in the mood for a bit of a simpler show that takes you back to your childhood, this will be up your alley.

For some reason I always missed out on the old Anne of Green Gables adaption when it was running on TV. I finally got to close that knowledge gap with the new adaption, which is gorgeous. At times it feels a bit rushed though, since it covers so much material. Definitely worth a watch regardless.

I tried to touch a few more games than the last time, the two biggest of which were Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and Pokémon Legends Arceus. Both were pretty fun and I even messed around with some new hardware this time too, maybe not what you'd expect!
FFPS#3: We played a plethora of games, among them Pokémon Legends Arceus and Persona 3 Reload. Also: Death spiraling game companies, new Valve hardware & the continuation of our personal gaming histories with the Game Boy and early PC gaming. Enjoy!

So many games: Persona 3 Reload, Blaster Master Zero 3, Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, Donkey Kong Bananza and more!
Had an overall great time with all of them, but the Persona 3 Reload experience took a bit of a hit due to a faulty guide. PSA: Don't use this one: gamerant.com/persona-3-re...

CITY the Animation was a silly time that definitely carried on the spirit of its predecessor, Nichijou. It was vibrantly produced and had so many great characters and little stories that tied together really well. It was a great time and most certainly worth checking out.

The Summer Hikaru Died effectively mixes a spooky atmosphere with late summer vibes and throws in an intriguing love story for good measure.
Takopi's Original Sin is a wild ride and despite its short runtime is able to tell an emotionally gripping tale about the importance of proper communication.

Sakamoto Days' second season (Or second cours? Who knows these days...) was just as entertaining and quick paced as the first one. TMS really bring their A-Game to make the fights look good, Yuki Hayashi delivers a riveting score and the story & characters are incredibly fun. Well worth your time.

I hate it when great shows stumble and fall in their final lap to the finish. And it looks like Fire Force will be one of those cases. The first half of its third and ostensible final season is marred by uneven pacing and a severe drop in animation quality. What a bummer.
