Umineko No Naku Koro Ni Review

Umineko No Naku Koro Ni, or When Seagulls Cry / When They Cry 3, is the successor to the exceptional anime Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni (When Cicadas Cry) by Ryukishi07, but didn’t quite rate as great for many. Most were probably turned off by this show because they were expecting something Higurashi-like. Although Umineko [...]

For those who have dual monitors (extended displays) on their PCs and want each to have different wallpapers but don’t know how, then you’re in luck!

Time of Eve Review

I really love watching shows portraying what technology and people’s lifestyles would be like in the future. Mainly those that deliberately think outside of the box, but still puts effort in justifying the concepts that would still make them sit within the boundaries of logic and reason – therefore persuading the viewers that the circumstances [...]

Natsume Yuujinchou Review

Backed with a unique solid plot and character development that encompasses the heartfelt struggles with loneliness and indifference from society between beings in the human and spirit world, Natsume Yuujinchou, or Natsume’s Book of Friends, is a really touching show that delivers just the right mix of drama, comedy and suspense strong enough to move one’s [...]
