I didn't really except this when going into Scott Pilgrim as someone who barely knew anything about it. I just saw the trailer and went "hey, that's pretty cool". I have to say, the first episode really threw me off. Didn't expect Scott to take off his clothes when watching that chaos fest unfold infront of me and my mom. But I continued watching it, and I have to say that I did like it. I'm pretty much hyperfixated so I have watched a bit of the movie too, and despite the bait I think this was a good spin on it. I just wish there was more Scott, as it is a show about Scott Pilgrim, not Ramona. Anyways, pretty good series. Depends on the person if you like it, but I liked it.

Spirited Away

A movie one must see
16 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is one I have seen maybe 20 times or so. I haven't rewatched it in a while, but I recall almost everything. The thrilling yet sentimental story, the breathtaking animation and amazing music. It's all near perfect despite its "odd" nature. I remember many times trying to recommend this movie to my friends - but they all said they were scared of it. The parents turning into pigs made them frightened. I'm sad they haven't given it a chance, because this movie is amazing. I don't know if its mainly the story or the animation, but something just hits. I'm glad to say that its a classic in my family. It isn't for everyone, but I can say that you should definitely give it a try.
Amazing

As expected, this episode was amazing. Luffy finally used Gear 5 in the anime, and his real capability was revealed. As showed in the manga, his Gum-Gum-Fruit is actually called Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Type Model: Nika, which gives the user the propertie of rubber. However, Luffy has now awakened that power, and turns the objects and people around him cartoony rubber-like. My issue with this episode was that it contained some amounts of filler. They kept showing flashbacks, and stretched the lenght. However, I don't mind that. This episode at first didn't make me that excited (even though I was thinking about it all the time). However, a few minutes after watching it I headed straight back and watched clips of it. I'll watch this episode again. The answer to why is simple. It was peak. The animation made me smile and laugh, which it should. It was well animated, and the movements of the characters were fluid and silly. It was the perfect power for a MC like Luffy. The best part is, there's more to come! This was just the start. And the start was, again, AMAZING. Peak episode.
One Piece
(1999– )
Thank you, Oda

There are not enough words to describe One Piece, and the amount of gratitude I have towards the creator, Oda, for making One Piece. This is truly a series, that will not be forgotten. It won't be surpassed in a better way, and it will always age like fine wine. I remember sitting in school, wondering: "Should I start One Piece? Is it worth watching, even though it's long?" Short answer: Yes. It was. Long answer: Yes. Every second I watched One Piece I was invested. I was thrilled to see what would come next. The world of One Piece sucked me in, and everyday I wanted more of it. It's truly a work of art, that we need to preserve till the end of time. When Gold Roger, the King of Pirates who achieved everything a pirate could dream of was executed, he told the people, that he had hid the world's greatest treasure somewhere: The One Piece. This execution started the Great Pirate Era, which has lasted 20 years now. Luffy, the protagonist, is a cheerful and impulsive man, who wants to become the King of Pirates. No matter where he went, he has gained friends and a reputation. He is selfish and dumb, but he can be a genius. He has saved many people from doom, even though he opposes being a hero. The characters in this anime are expectional. None of them are bad, and I truly stand by this. The visuals? Amazing. The artstyle is unique, and it has a lot of charm. The music is captivating, and a lot of the songs make it into my playlist. The story, now that's the good stuff. It is BRILLIANT. A simple concept such as pirates being turned into something like this is unbelievable. Things like devil fruits, poneglyphs and the four emperors are introduced, and they are all so unbelievably amazing. I can't express my gratitude enough towards Oda, who created this story. Do not be taken aback by the amount of episodes. Eventually, you'll be hooked, and you'll want more episodes, more of the story and more of everything. Watch this before it ends. It is truly worth it, and it has changed me as a person.

It's okay
12 June 2023
For a generic series about neurodivergent people, its expected to be just OK, no stellar filmwork or acting. This does succeed to entertain me for some time. The jokes are not very clever, they are predictable and a bit corny, but that's okay. A little bit of silly humor never hurt anybody (did make me laugh sometimes). I haven't fully watched the second season, but from watching a few episodes, I feel like the first season is better than the second one. The second season isn't bad, just a bit downgraded. Now here is my major issue. This could be a better series if they had a better example of ND behavior. Some of the lines just feel very robotic/fake, and I wish they possibly would have studied it more. That aside, it can help teach people about ND in a way. But nevertheless, this is an okay series. If you want to see something refreshing and entertaining without much plot, check this one out!
What a vibe
9 June 2023
This movie contains stellar animation, shocking twists, great characters and overall an amazing setting. And I put emphasis on the animation: it is unmatched! The music (almost forgot to add) is unreal. Everything about this movie is refreshing and new. Somehow, Spiderman, a concept known widely, can be turned into something new and refreshing (in the first part). However, despite the first part being great already, this has truly been a great successor. Everything about this movie is truly amazing, and I dearly recommend this to everyone. My only issue is that my attention span is very poor, and this movie felt like it was being dragged on for a long time. But that does not go for everyone. I know, that many people love this movie, and so do I. Go see it!
