Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica


I want to say that this rating probably wouldn't have been this high if it completely twisted my first impressions around and stabbed me in the back with dark emotions. Whenever I suggest to people to watch this, I never tell them how dark it actually is and force them to get through a couple of episodes and they always seem to enjoy the experience of being completely surprised.

I don't remember much about it anymore since I watched a while ago but I gave it this rating after a week of watching it.

9.25




Hell Girl


This would have to be my biggest biased rating so far in my anime watching history. Main reason was that I love the concept of vengeance, it fascinates me. The series has an issue with being way too episodic and sometimes going against the rules it sets itself at the start of the series. The other annoying thing was the repetitive scene where she transforms which was obviously used as filler time.

Season 1 was decent, had a lot of unique episodes that made you question "Is that justified?" The story about the dog and the girl relating to loyalty was an amazing short questioning the persons morality.

Season 2 was atrocious, the story was messy, the main character was obnoxious and the episodic stories were petty most of the time, taking action against very little things. Most of the characters were acting like children even though they were adults, or maybe I just didn't see eye-to-eye with them.

Season 3... This season is so damn underrated and it's probably because everyone dropped it after the terrible experience that was season 2. I don't think it's episodic series were as good as season 1 but it developed the main character, building it up with probably one of the most depressing stories I've ever heard to the point where I was even rooting for her to kill everyone.

Beelzebub


Hysterical anime that had me laughing a lot but was a bit put off when they went serious mode and get too emotional, it was unnecessarily long for a comedy so the jokes got stale. I still remember some really good animations that just made me burst in laughter. I always think that animation is really important in comedy anime but hate it when they try to have a serious side.

8.5



Log Horizon


Basically the better and more serious version of Sword Art Online that appeals to more nerdy people rather than people who are more interested in fan service. The peak points of this anime was the economy building and the boss fighting mechanics. Everything else I found kind of dull though, almost boring, I don't know if it was just me but I had no real interest for any of the characters apart from the members of the tea party that weren't known.

8.5



Death Parade


The first two episodes of this series got me obsessed with the show, I was slightly upset that the rest of the episodes didn't hold up to the same standards even though having a turning point at episodes 8-9~ which were easily my favorite episodes of any anime in 2015 even to this date.

I'm going to be quite frank here and this may sound shocking to most people, but I way preferred the episodic episodes compared to the episodes where it tried to delve into the main storyline, I recognized it as too predictable and boring apart from learning about Kurokami's past.

Great Teacher Onizuka


I don't know what to write about this but I loved it and that's all that matters, I thoroughly enjoyed this series and the convincing conversions that it made while managing to make me laugh at every episode. It was a really heart warming and something everyone can relate to as a slice of life unless you never attended school.

9.0



Perfect Blue


I normally never bother watching anime movies simply for the reason that they're usually terrible, especially the ones that are derived from shounen anime series. I did some research after craving a movie and found this and it intrigued me, it was a really well done psychological thriller with a surprising ending that left me uttering "No way...!" with a sad tone of coming to terms with the reasoning.

8.75



Kekkai Sensen


I was enjoying this anime at first, absolutely loved the animation style, soundtrack and the comedy. But what didn't satisfy me is the most important thing, the story and plot and not to mention the ending that left me at "Wait what?" I don't know if it was the huge pause between the second last and last episode but I felt complete disappointment in that show in conclusion.

7.75



Gintama (2015)


Now, this is just to bump up Gintama from a 9.0 to a 9.25. I absolutely LOVE the new series, it honestly surprises me how it never ceases to make me burst out in laughter late in the night even when I'm tired. Again, I can't stress this enough times, what the characters in Gintama have as friends is much greater than any other set of characters have in any other anime. I value their friendship more than anyone else's from any other anime out there that I've seen so far.

Fate/Stay


I'm going to include all 3 series of this anime within this rating.

Fate/Stay Night - 7.0


DO NOT watch this, it is a huge mistake in my opinion, everything about this version of the show is simply to dull and I hated the franchise after watching it.

Fate/Stay Zero - 9.25


This was simply amazing, almost perfect while lacking soundtrack and animation quality compared to unlimited bladeworks. To simply state the flaws, I thought the fight scenes in this series were easily the worst part of this, not to say that it was bad considering it's high rating.

One of the main issues I remember was that I was unsatisfied with the conclusion of the conflict between Saber and Lancelot. The amount of pride filled in Sabers intentions were so obnoxious and I don't know if Alexander was wise with his words or even more foolish of that of Sabers as they sat around or drink. The way Kiritsugu shutdown her pride completely by ending the fight between her and Lancer felt so damn good .

There's just too much to talk about this series that I can go on forever honestly.

Fate/Stay Unlimited Bladeworks - 8.25


Most of this ratings number comes from it's beautiful animation quality and it's soundtrack, some of the petty things that I found a little annoying was for example the repetitive sound used for Saber when she swings her sword and how Archer kept talking with one eye closed.

I didn't really understand why some of the things turned out the way they were after Zero like why Gilgamesh was still a servant even though he was reincarnated, how there was such a short time period between the events and many more questions.

In the end, it was a good series. Don't watch Fate/Stay Night, make sure you watch Fate/Zero first then Fate/Stay Unlimited Bladeworks

Most of the reviews are from anime that I watched nearly a year ago now, so I don't really remember them that well, which is why the reviews are probably meh, but the rating is the actual rating that I gave them 1 week after watching them to prevent myself from 'hype' rating them,

It's about time tbh. There's nothing stopping you and me from making all these memories.

Nevertheless enjoyed reading those, might give the anime I haven't seen on those reviews a try.

Which ratings differ the most? I would suggest any of my ratings that are 9+/10 depending if the genre suits you.

lol at the fate stay night review :p My friend actually gave fate stay night a 9 and Fate Zero a 6
but I'm definitely staying away from the old fate stay night

I feel like some people have an attachment to things that they may have watched when they were kids, best example in my opinion being Dragonball series which I loved when I was a kid but when I watch it now I hate it.

Edit: Fate/Zero could be a 10 for me if it had better OST as well as filling in some of the gaps that existed in a couple of the fights and characters.
