So counter intuitive.

Mob Psycho 100: 7.5/10. In a nutshell: One Punch Man, but worse.

Huh, other way around for me. Liked both, but Mob Psycho is special.

Vinland Saga: Maybe an 8.5/10

9/10 for me.

The manga just ended. The 2nd half may not be brutal enough for your liking, but definitely worth a finish. This brand of Seinen tends to be stuck in haitus land. Ending it, and on a conclusive note is a major achievement.

Made in Abyss- 10/10

Alas, too much pedo energy for my liking. Well deserved 10/10 though.

Attack on Titan- 9.5/10.

Wow, the anime's last arc must be really good. I hated the manga ending. Felt like it was written in 1 evening. Must go watch it now.

Chainsaw Man: 7.5/10

That low ? Really ? I didn't watch the anime, but the manga was a 10/10 for me.


Some recommendations.

Koe no Katachi - 10/10 - If you must watch / read 1 thing. Choose this. I cried.

Grave of the fireflies - 0/10 - Fuck this movie. Ruined my entire month. So good it's horrible. No movie has hit me this hard. ever.

Dungeon Meshi - 9/10 - High fantasy dungeon crawler with a cooking gimmick and existential questions. Tight and gets tied together excellent. FMAB-esque.

Oyaji - 8/10 - Like Chainsawman, feels allegorical. Short read. You're mostly reading past the core narrative. like watching a single take movie that doesn't stop moving.

One Piece - I can't even/10 - One Piece is hard to describe. It transcends media. But always worth mentioning, because I want you to know it isn't over hyped. It is that good. One day it will end, and my life won't be the same anymore.
