TEPPEN [AX 2019 Game Review]: Let Them Deal!

The thing that I love about Anime Expo is that it’s not just about the mangas, shows, and movies. It’s also about the video games and card games. Every year I find a game that intrigues me enough to the point where I develop an obsession and have to own it immediately. This year, that …

When I arrived this morning to get in line, it wasn’t hard to guess I wasn’t the only one. After three Hot Topic-shaking successful seasons, My …

DR. STONE [Series Premiere Review]: Stoned is the Way of the Walk.

Dr. STONE is Crunchyroll's first simulcast for the summer of 2019 and it's a fun one. In fact, it's the most hilarious shōnen I've watched in a minute. Other Anime Expo attendees who also got the chance to enjoy the Main Stage World Premere earlier today would surely agree, too. All the jokes hit-- at …
