Mononoke Review

2 Replies

Deadly monsters, haunting spirits, and supernatural entities beyond humans to even describe with words are a few examples of what makes horror an appealing genre to many. There are great examples of works of horror that can be considered real masterpieces of their kind. However, it is undoubtedly one of the most accessible genres to not succeed in garnering pure terror within its framework, especially with anime. There are only a handful of noteworthy horror shows, and the rest only come up with predictable scares and horror tropes being used way too much.

With the Summer season coming close, it would be the best time to announce some things that will come in this season after a month of not posting anything. The reason being for nothing posted was the fact that finals were really taking a beating for me, so I didn’t have the time to write anything, or even watch a lot of episodes as I usually schedule myself to do. Needless to say, there will definitely be a lot of new reviews that will be posted from May to August because of the huge amount of free time I plan on having, that is unless Final Fantasy 14 ARR doesn’t take up too much of my time. What will those reviews be on? That’s secret! So please, stay tuned for the remainder of the summer and I hope to make your summer even more fun with my writings!

Now take most of those qualities away that make the show quality entertainment, and you have Super Sonico the Animation.

A demographic of people love to dabble in the virtual world of Massively Multiplayer Online games (MMO) to achieve escapism from stress and other struggles that plague their nature. Recently, there has been somewhat of a resurgence of interest for anime fans to watch shows that detail the life of gamers who play these sorts of games, with Sword Art Online being at the forefront of it. These shows detail whether the virtual world could become more real to us than what we initially thought of as real from when we were born should be the central theme for these shows to explore and bring a fresh new take on it. It’s just too bad that none of these shows in question ever bothered to in the first place and become generic as a result.
