Character of the Month of Novembflix: Meliodas

Image
Greetings, ladies and gentlemen!  Welcome back to the final portion of Novembflix, and the end of the month of November.  My first attempt at this new event was interesting in the sense that the shows were, well, interesting-and maybe not in the best of ways.  Still, of all the shows I reviewed, there was one character from this event that I absolutely adored; so this month’s pick was pretty easy.  So, let’s not stall anymore and talk about this month’s character of the month: Meliodas from The Seven Deadly Sins. In the fantasy world of Britannia, Meliodas serves as the leader of a group of elite Holy Knights turned outlaws called the Seven Deadly Sins.  Ten years after the group is accused of treason and disbanded, Princess Elizabeth of the Liones family finds Meliodas as the owner of a traveling bar.  Elizabeth convinces him to find the other members of the Sins and stop the Order of the Holy Knights from starting an all out war. Good Lord, Meliodas was one of the funniest pr

To Infinity and Beyond Confusing: Knights of Sidonia

Greetings, fabulous peoples of the Internet!  I’m back this week with the final part of Novembflix!  This week’s review was…interesting.  In fact, I think I’m still scratching my head at what I watched.  Granted, you guys know what this week’s show is, so there really isn’t any reason to beat around the bush.  So let’s get into this week’s review on Knights of Sidonia ! In a far distant future, the remnants of humanity live on a gigantic shuttle in the middle of space called Sidonia .  The series opens up with the apprehension of boy named Nagate Tanikaze after he is caught trying to steal rice.  As it turns out, Nagate had been living a under a rock for quite sometime; humanity has not only thrived but evolved, now having the capability to go one week without eating.  However, the residents of Sidonia suddenly come under threat when a massive space-dwelling creature called the Gauna is awakened and attacks.  With the Sidonia now in danger, Guardian pilots (including newly-induct

Greetings, ladies and gentlemen!  Welcome back to part two of Novembflix!  This week I took a break from witches, but still decided to keep the fantasy theme going with this week’s show.  I had already heard quite a lot about this show before watching it, so had pretty high hopes for it.  And while I wasn’t able to get too far into season one, what I was able to watch was…well…let’s just start the review and you’ll see what I mean.  Speaking of, let’s talk about The Seven Deadly Sins . In the world of Britannia, a fantasy world where humans and creatures coexist, a sanction of knights known as the Seven Deadly Sins are wanted for plotting against the Liones Kingdom.  Ten years after their disbandment, one Princess Elizabeth is in search of them to stop the Holy Knights from starting an all-out war.  But in an unexpected stop at a bar, she finds the leader of the Seven Deadly Sins Meliodas, the sin of wrath.  After escaping a scuffle with some knights, Elizabeth, Meliodas, and Melio

Something Cute this Way Comes: Little Witch Academia

Greetings, fabulous peoples!   November is here and that means its time for the first review of Novembflix!  If you missed my post last week, Novembflix is a new event that I’m doing for the month of November where I review shows exclusively found on Netflix.  And this week’s show, I’ll admit, was one that I should have reviewed last month-even though it’s not a horror anime.  And if you picked up on the same title I used for my review on 18if , then you know this week’s review is on one witchy show in particular.  So, since I’ve given that much away, let’s jump right into this week’s review on Little Witch Academia . Ever since she was a little girl, Atsuko Kagari, mostly known as Akko, has always wanted to become a witch like her idol Shiny Chariot.  She goes on to attend Luna Nova Academy, a school for witches, to learn all about magic so she can become just like Charitot.  However, she finds that learning magic is a lot more difficult than she bargained for.  But while learni
