Dropped Series: Round One

Here are a few series that Eurkos and I can’t even do full reviews for, and will not be moving on to our ever-so-grueling six episode test. I’ll put up some brief summaries here so you aren’t totally lost as to why we decided not to continue on with them.

Kami-chama Karin Episode 1 Review

Before We Begin

Reideen Episode 1 Review

Before we begin…
The Spring 2007 Reideen is a remake of Yuusha Raideen from 1975, which has another remake called Chouja Reideen from 1996 Rah Xephon was heavily inspired by the original Raideen, which is why they are so similar.
We are approaching this as if we haven’t seen any of the previous versions, because…well, we [...]

Spring 2007 Anime
