Just binge watching Locke and Key on Netflix , on series 3 and enjoyed watching something quite different. Like a bit of magic and Alchemy set in the here and now. Have a watch everyone.

Ahhh you just made me remember where I knew a certain actor from Love Life from, it was Locke & Key, I'm on season 3 as well about half way through I think. Did you know that the actress who plays Kinsey is Aled Jones daughter?

Wow is she , she acts very well ~ found her totally believable and her singing at the wedding is very good as well.

She's sung twice already in season 3, I was thinking she must be trying to launch a music career too

Congratulations to you and Niamh for sitting through that unique Show.

Actually been enjoying the new American Horror Stories. I don't know if it's available in the UK yet. First season was atrocious, but this season is much better, and the latest episode was the weirdest thing because it started a few towns away from me and even people in America don't usually know that where I live exists.

Tbh if you're struggling with Season 1 then I don't fancy your chances with Season 2 because it basically copies Season 1's style with a 60''s theme behind it.

I have yet to watch Season 3 so I can't comment on it's quality.

[Niamh.]

I've been trying to get through Season 3 for months, its pretty crap tbf, I don't even know why I'm still ploughing on with it (slowly ) - The Umbrella Academy
Probably for Klaus, his is the only decent character

Klaus is very good tbf.

I also liked Five, I'm also okay with Alison away from the ship with Luther.

She Hulk


very very enjoyable


some hilarious moments

Spoiler:

such as Madisynn basically spoiling most of Sopranos to Wong
or Jen failing to find a date as herself but getting tons of matches as she hulk, only awkward thing is some see her as a ''ultimate specimen'' and next morning once she changed back to her normal self, the date left finding her too boring suddenly
and also one moment when Jen's former colleague at the DA, Dennis suddenly wanting to hire her from superhuman law when he got scammed by some asgardian light elf posing as megan thee stallion

I agree. Finished it last night, what an ending!

I ****ing hate Tariq and Tasha, vile pieces of ****s the both of them are. Hope Tasha rots in prison. Ghost still won in the end even after

Spoiler:

his death.

Overall what a fantastic show this has been. 9/10.

Mob Psycho 100.

I'm only 4 episodes in, but so far I really like Reigen & Dimple, Mob is okay as well if not a bit predictable sometimes.

[Mystic Mock]

I've finished Mob Psycho 100, which I ended being really happy with the second Season in particular, it ended up really winning me over with just how fun it was to watch.

I'm also watching The Suspect which to me just seems to get worse with every episode, Bobby Moran is the only character that I'm personally interested in.

And then I'm watching the first Season of Bikini Warriors, which tbh it's a 12 episode Season that are 4 minutes long where they parody everything in the Otaku culture.

Being honest it obviously is playing on wish fulfillment for male audiences if you couldn't already gather it from the title, but being fair to the Show it actually can be genuinely funny, and the characters are likable imo.

Judging it on it's own terms and not expecting it to be GOT or AOT, it's a really enjoyable Show imo, plus the women don't look bad either.

But being serious though, I personally like the Show, especially Fighter, Paladin, Dark Elf & Hunter (although she's only been in one episode so far) the only scene I thought went too far imo was the Dog & Fighter scene, I personally just wasn't comfortable with it, but I get that other people might feel differently.

[Mystic Mock]

Tron: Uprising - I've watched 10 episodes so far, and I've got to say that it's a really good Show imo.

Especially if you like good villains and strong worldbuilding, and of course Futuristic Sci-Fi.

Zed & Mara are probably my least favourite characters in the Show, but even they're tolerable for me versus other characters from other Shows that fit a similar mold to both of them.

Blue Lock - 3 episodes in and it's been fun so far, it's not gonna be for everyone, and like most modern fiction the pacing is slow, but as I'm a huge fan of Football/Soccer I can let it slide for my own personal taste.

Akiba Maid War - A surprise hit for me, I honestly was expecting to hate the Show, but so far I think that it's been quite funny.

In particular there are a couple of characters that I really like on the Show which I never expected.

Obviously this isn't even trying to be an epic masterpiece, so people should try to judge it on it's own terms, which is essentially a Comedy series on Maids who get put in dangerous (but absurd) situations.

I personally have enjoyed it so far anyway.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury - Okay I'm a fan of some of the other Gundam Shows, but I'm not a die hard fan that's watched every single one of them, so my opinion probably isn't as well thought out on this Show compared to the die hards.

For me I respect Sunrise for trying to address an issue that has plagued every Gundam that I've watched, and that's trying to write the female characters better, the Show's two leads are women, and I can see the Show is trying to give both of them more prominence and depth in TWFM, for me it's a bit clunky in the way that it's handled, but I can respect the effort.

Now we go to my biggest issue with this particular Gundam Show, and that's where's the cutthroat Politics? The strategies that would be implemented to try and beat the enemy nation? And strong world building? This is bread & butter stuff to all of the other Gundam Shows that I've ever watched.

It would've been nice to have kept the Action as well, but tbf Gundam has always toyed with the level of Action, so I can accept this Show being less action heavy, it just needs the political struggles to appear in the Show properly, and not a blink and you'll miss it scene an episode.

Potential is there for a great Show, Sunrise just needs to finesse it a bit.

Chainsaw Man - I honestly didn't want to be that guy that ****s on the popular Show, I normally try to avoid doing that childish **** as much as possible.

But my honest opinion of the first 3 episodes of Chainsaw Man is that it's incredibly poor in quality.

The character writing is dreadful, especially for Denji's character who's whole purpose is wanting to touch women's boobs, and this would be fine if he was just a comedic side character, but this is the main protagonist we're talking about here.

The main plot is non-existent, and I don't mean it's a slow burn or that this Show is a heavy Drama over plot type of Show, it just genuinely doesn't have a plot, or a plot that's worth noting anyway.

And for me TV Shows and Movies (animated or not) should live and die on their characters & plotting, I do get that genre preferences will kick in for everybody, but in this case it's clearly obvious that Chainsaw Man has failed at both ends of the spectrum, especially when I look at the first three episodes of My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Fairy Tail & Bleach.

All of them are in the same genre as Chainsaw Man, but they all at the very least got one thing going for them in the first 3 episodes, some even got both the characters and the plot moving along.

Momentum in the story should always be there, it shouldn't feel like a style over substance programme like Chainsaw Man feels like to me.

Rant over.

I'll be checking House Of The Dragon & The Rings Of Power out later, I'll give my feedback on my early impressions of them once I'm done watching them both.

[Mystic Mock]

Okay I honestly don't hate the new Gundam Show like some people do in the Anime community.

But 6 episodes in and the plot doesn't feel like it's growing much, I suppose episode 6 pushed itself a bit more, but it's not saying much.

By now in other Gundam's the plot would've started picking up some momentum.

It's certainly not an offensive Show imo, but it does need to utilize the Gundam universe better.

Along with my three weekly Anime Shows I'm now watching two other Shows.

FBI - This tbh was more pushed on me by family members to watch it, and after already despising International for some reason they thought that I was gonna like this Show more.

In fairness I will say that it's improved from the first two episodes, however my biggest issue with the franchise in general is how flat the characters are written, they just feel like they're still in the creative process rather than fully developed characters.

But for me the lack of any character in FBI just puts me off as it currently stands.

Ingress The Animation - This Anime I honestly knew absolutely nothing about until I saw it pop up on Netflix, 5 episodes in and I'm impressed, the characters are likable and interesting, and while it's not the most original plot in the world that they're going for, they do actually execute their themes and tropes well imo.

I've just started watching this. I'm half way through the second series. I'm about to watch a few more episodes.

It's nothing outstanding, but it's OK for a mainly female cast in a comedy show. Although Kevin is probably the funniest character.

It hasn't really made me laugh too much or too hard but it is watchable so it does have some qualities.

I know it's co written by Graham Linehan, who wrote the likes of Father Ted, Black Books and IT Crowd.
