#Hands off eizouken season 2 series#

It wraps up so beautifully and is a compilation of three great years of episodes.īOFURI: I Don’t Want to Get Hurt so I’ll Max Out My Defenseīofuri is not a series I thought I would enjoy as much as I did but it really won me over.

This finale was fantastic and honestly while I am glad to see the series continue on and grow from there, and look forward to seeing more of this new second part of Clover that focuses on a war with the Spade Kingdom, I absolutely would not have complained if the whole thing ended right here with this story arc. Since I was following the series dubbed as it aired on Toonami this year brought me the end of the first part of the series finally seeing the epic conclusion of Clover Kingdom’s long standing battle with the Eye of the Midnight Sun and revealing some pretty great and shocking twists behind the war of elves and humans along the way. Out of the modern Jump battle series I find myself more and more drawn into Clover (and also my one true love, the ever underappreciated World Trigger) than the other more popular ones that seem to rule all the anime conversations today. Black Clover has been a favorite of mine in recent years. So I am going to include long running shows now this year, get over it. But armed with modern day knowledge of the 21st century Myne is able to create modern conveniences and wow most people around her. Urano now Myne tries her best to create books for the common people and spread literature, a herculean task considering the insane douchebaggery of the higher caste in this world. The series is more about following the average life of a peasant in this world and how far out of reach literature is to them, given the lack of printing press and the like. While at first that may sound like a high flying adventure it really isn’t.

One day Motosu Urano wakes up in the body of the small child Myne in a fantasy world much like medieval Europe but with a few other elements like magic and sorcery. Proving that not all isekai series have to be a power fantasy, Ascendance of a Bookworm plays out more like an educational take on medieval times, think something among the lines of Spice and Wolf, if you will. Instead it focuses on his growth as a mage and how he tries to navigate the political intrigue of this feudal world being one of the youngest born in a noble family with no clear line of succession to take over yet being the most talented and magically gifted child of said family. The protagonist Wendelin is more or less just cool with how things are now. The power fantasy isn’t too out of control (although the protagonist is quite strong), and there is no real end goal or attempt to return to your previous life. Perhaps it’s because almost all the isekai elements in the series feel more forced than anything else, like they are just tacked on to appeal to modern audiences.Ĩth Son honestly feels more like a good old fashion fantasy series from the 90’s that just had to add isekai elements in it to appeal to kids today. There is nothing that great about 8th Son, it’s very bland and doesn’t stick out amongst the million other isekai(another world) power fantasy series that are all the rage now and yet there is a strange draw to it. Maybe a guilty pleasure? Maybe I just enjoy some trashier shows? It’s hard to say. So starting with anime and in my usual alphabetical order here we go. I am just going to list my top whatever the hell I feel like listing. I usually try to impose some on myself every year for my lists: rules like no sequels, no long running shows, no shows that technically started last year, only new content from this year and not older stuff I watched/played this year but came out from a prior one. So this year I decided to just say screw it, there are no rules.

It’s because of that I honestly didn’t really keep up with a lot of my hobbies this year so when it comes to choosing my favorite anime and games of 2020, I don’t have as much as I usually would. It was in particular a bad year for me for a lot of personal reasons on top of the whole world wide pandemic thing killing millions and shutting down business and and all our hobbies–so I really was straight up not having a good time. I am sure I don’t have to exactly spell it out that 2020 was a different year, we all know the spiel now.
