Ultraman X Episode 9
Ultraman X pulls the biggest plot twist so far by having a genuinely good episode.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 10 – Early Edition
I must be in a bad mood today because nearly every Early Edition show delivers this week and yet I still find reasons to complain. School Live pays the price for all the fun it had last week, Ushio and Tora asks us to peep game, Miss Monochrome goes virus hunting, Prison School adapts the funniest chapter of the manga, and Classroom Crisis actually has people making out. Should be good times, right?
Ultraman X Episode 8
Ultraman X is tricked by an evil alien and needs to be rescued by another Ultraman. Wait, didn’t we already watch this one?
Kamen Rider Drive Episode 44-45
The Riders and Roidmudes come together to try and stop Banno from unleashing the Global Freeze, but not all of them will survive the coming battle…
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 9 – Late Edition
Don’t believe Takeo’s shirt: My Love Story!! did not do a good job this week, nor did Working!!! which barely redeems itself in its last few minutes, or Durarara!! which didn’t even bother airing an episode. Fortunately Gatchaman Crowds Insight ups the intensity and Snow White finally makes a move.
OP/ED Op-Eds: The Best of Summer 2015
Bad news: Summer is over. Worse news: Summer season is not yet over. As you might have been able to tell from the dearth of content, the current anime load-out hasn’t really managed to swipe us off our feet. A more satisfactory review awaits you in a few weeks, but now that we’re halfway through the season already, the members of our merry crew have had more than enough time to pick their favourite anime song of the season. That is, if they even watched anything at all this season.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 9 – Early Edition
Artemis returns (woo) just in time to join me and Marlin in trashing School Live’s pool episode. I’m sure that will just be a one time thing, but my growing hatred for Classroom Crisis is a real, weekly event. At least I have a new crazy Miss Monochrome theory to work on?
All Your Monies: September 7th 2015
Hello, and welcome to All Your Monies, where The Glorio Blog’s resident toy and figure collecting crew (and Aqua) will run down the last week’s new pre-orders, turning a loving or scathing eye over what’s been put out for you to spend your hard earned cash on. This week we have more Smash Bros joining the fray.
Ultraman X Episode 6 and 7
Ultraman X shocks us with a surprise two-parter, featuring humans shooting aliens, threats to life as we know it and deus ex machina up the wazoo.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 8 – Late Edition
Gatchaman Crowds Insight makes its triumphant return after last week’s hiatus, Working!!! is still pretty great this season, and not much else. At least My Love Story! has given me and Marlin reason to keep the S.S. Team Saijou afloat… for now.
Good Night, Sweet Prince
May he live on in our meme-ories.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 8 – Early Edition
The Early Edition gears up for the final stretch of the season with School Live and Prison School delivering late season twists. Miss Monochrome remains great but sadly, Classroom Crisis is bad again.
All Your Monies: August 31st 2015
Hello, and welcome to All Your Monies, where The Glorio Blog’s resident toy and figure collecting crew (and Aqua) will run down the last week’s new pre-orders, turning a loving or scathing eye over what’s been put out for you to spend your hard earned cash on. This week we have cool dogs, cool robots and desperately uncool anime girls.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 7 – Late Edition
An abbreviated Late Edition this week as Gatchaman Crowds Insight takes an episode off. That makes me very sad. Meanwhile, Durarara reminds us to hate Izaya, Working tries to do a little too much for one episode, Snow White has too many flashbacks, and My Love Story might be sinking my favorite ship. At least Insight will be back next week?
Kamen Rider Drive Episode 43
Banno and the Roidmudes begin preparations for a second Global Freeze, while Shinnosuke and Chase have a showdown over their love lives. No, not those Love Lives.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 7 – Early Edition
A bit of a slow week for School Live and Classroom Crisis, but Ushio and Tora has a fight on an airplane and Miss Monochrome has a bizarre, vaguely inappropriate relationship with an anthropomorphized battery. ANIME!
All Your Monies: August 24th 2015
Hello, and welcome to All Your Monies, where The Glorio Blog’s resident toy and figure collecting crew (and Iro) will run down the last week’s new pre-orders, turning a loving or scathing eye over what’s been put out for you to spend your hard earned cash on. This week we have bunny hats, leather jackets and big hair. It’s the 80’s all over again.
Kamen Rider Drive Episodes 41-42
Several women in town lose consciousness under mysterious circumstances, muttering the name of a man named Shou. Shinnosuke and co. quickly find out the woman at the centre of it all is one Misuzu Hatori, a woman with an uncanny resemblance to Medic, who is still struggling to reach her Ultimate Evolution. Meanwhile, Banno sets his plan into motion.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 6 – Late Edition
Another day at the office for the Late Edition as Durarara!! keeps busy, Working!!! continues its streak of loose end tying, and Insight gives me the opportunity to get off as many “Deez Nuts” jokes as possible.
The Roundup: Summer 2015 Volume 6 – Early Edition
A strong week for the Early Edition as School Live reveals the fate of our favorite teacher, Miss Monochrome exposes the seedy underbelly of the idol industry, and Classroom Crisis continues its slow crawl to respectability. Also, Prison School has boner jokes? OK, I went one bullet point too far.
