This post contains spoilers for the entire Danganronpa series. I recommend having played the games before reading this, or you won't understand much of it. Recently I held a poll on my twitter as to which game I should review this month. The choices were between Danganronpa V3, a game most people had at this …
Office Politics
Before I begin this comparison of the two versions of the TV show The Office, I think I need to make some major clarifications. First of all, this is by no means trying to be any sort of definitive ranking of the two series, because both have carved out their own niches enough that they …
Persona 5
Spoilers for the entirety of Persona 5 ahead. The other Persona games are not spoiled in this post. Persona 5 is a game for Japan. It talks to Japanese people and it was made by Japanese people. It’s set in Japan, and it appears to address issues facing Japan today. I thought I should get …
Review: The Final Season
This review contains massive spoilers for the final season of Review, and all the proceeding seasons. I urge you to watch the show (it’s only 3 seasons) before reading any further. You won’t regret it. Review isn’t, at its core, about reviewing things. Sure, that forms the basis for the life work of ‘life reviewer’ …
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Medium story spoilers follow. I'd advise playing the game before reading this review, but I try to avoid spoiling anything major. I feel like I’ve come to Breath of the Wild a bit too late to add anything meaningful to the discussion, but this does at least mean that the inevitable backlash has already started. That …
Review: The Good Place
It’s very rare that a sitcom actually manages to improve so considerably on a second viewing – that re-watching really makes that big a difference. But The Good Place is a rather unique show, and as such demands a re-watch, and for fans to really reconsider the groundworks the series is based on. It’s for …
The Pokemon Sun and Moon Conundrum
It usually takes me around a few weeks before I’ve moved on to my second playthrough of a Pokemon game. It took me until the start of January before I’d even finished Pokemon Sun and Moon, and this has nothing to do with the length of the game. Instead, it was constant stopping and starting: …
Backlog Review: Bored to Death Season Two
Annoyingly, my opinions aren't always 100% correct all the time (surprising, I know). I'll admit, it took me until half way through Season Two to properly get Bored to Death. I'll fully take the blame on this one, but it's interesting to examine why it took me so long to understand. For one thing, I think …

Backlog Review: Bored to Death Season One
Knowing my love of detective fiction and American comedy, a friend recommended me Bored to Death, the Johnathan Ames show that had been on my radar for a while but I'd never gotten round to watching. He lent me the first season DVD and I watched it in less than two days. The elements were …

Review: Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Spirit of Justice
This is an outdated review of Spirit of Justice. If you're looking for my updated thoughts, please click here. This (massive) review contains major spoilers for the entire Ace Attorney series and both Ace Attorney Investigations games (and minor DGS spoilers). Before playing Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice (henceforth Spirit of Justice), I …
