[Awards] Anime of the Year Awards 2016 Presented in 4k TruHD(TM) Part 1: Za Worsto

2016 was a terrible year, because Trump won, some celebrities died, and people were super racist and sexist which never happened in any other year. The bad aspects of this year most certainly weren't things like politics becoming an enormous fucking joke because of things like this , it wasn't all of the terrorist attacks in europe(and even a couple in the states) that killed 100+ people total, and it for sure wasn't that california will bar police from arresting child prostitues, effectively legalizing child prostitution . No, no, Carrie Fisher and Prince died, a guy you don't like was elected, and like Beth totally dissed me at the party like OMG how could she say that??? But instead of an obviously sarcastic rant about le current year, how about I actually get onto talking about anime like I'm supposed to, unlike Giant Bomb when it comes to video games this year. First off, since we're speaking about bad things of this year, let's do the obvious and

[Review]Anime: Mekakucity Actors

Mekakucity Actors is an anime produced by SHAFT and directed by Akiyuki Shinbo. It is (I feel loosely) based on/part of the "Kagerou Project", by Jin AKA "Shinzen no Teki P", who I believe also wrote the screenplay. In addition to these things, it's an anime I wish I hadn't watched. I originally wanted to go in depth, but then I realized this would go on forever if I did that. Instead, I'm gonna do this like normal and hopefully that will get my point across. The plot is just terrible, with it's main problem being jack shit happens and few things are ever explained, and those that are, are explained poorly. The majority of the show takes place in backstory episodes, which are just kinda shoved in all over the place. Because of this the main storyline becomes something that's never there and you don't care about. Let me summarize the entire thing, it won't take long. Shintaro needs a new keyboard and goes to get one, getting caught in a

[Review] Anime: Arcade Gamer Fubuki

This is a lesser known SHAFT anime, that was made in about 2002, and is a 4 episode OVA series, based on a manga by Mine Yoshizaki, author of the well loved Keroro Gunsou(Sgt. Frog), is a spin-off of "Game Center Arashi", and is produced by Enterbrain(the company that owns the largest japanese game magazine, Famitsu, and created the RPG Maker engine) It's so obscure, it doesn't even have a wikipedia entry. EDIT: It does now. Also, the first episode was apparently aired on TV. Arcade Gamer Fubuki is a comedy and possible parody about a girl named Fubuki Sakuragasaki(say that 10 times fast), who is given a pair of panties that give her the power to be really good at arcade games, by a mysterious man aptly named "Mr. Mystery". She enters a tournament to determine the best Arcade Gamer in the world. During which, she is assaulted by an evil group known as "The Gulastic Group", and must defeat them with the power of her "Passion Panties". No
