Lately, fate would have it that I would once again be immersed in the marvel universe. Like a lot of people my age, I came up with and watched the X-men movies from FOX and the Marvel movies from Disney. After seeing Deadpool and Avengers Endgame, I figured my time with the marvel universe would be done for a long time, but I caught the comic book bug and here we are.
Back on Dec 1st of this year, The God of high School published its final chapter for everyone to see. I’ve been following the series for about 2 years now after a buddy of mine introduced me to it(along with the awesome app Tachiyomi , which I used to read it). GOH is easily one of my favorite series. I got hooked right from the first chapter. It’s not perfect by any means, but I got love for this series from the bottom of my heart.
Despite being a Toonami kid, my history with Gundam is more recent rather than storied. Instead of watching Gundam Wing as a kid, I was watching Iron Blooded orphans in high school. Since then, I’ve gotten more into the franchise over time, especially over the course of this pandemic. I wanna sit down and take some time to talk about the ones I’ve watched.

Most people took the absence of offline events as a hit to their motivation to play the genre.
Back in 2018, I saw 2 anime that would send me down a rather large rabbit hole much later: SSSS Gridman and Garo: Vanishing Line.
Those two shows are two of my favorite shows of all time. Gridman, with its wonderful characters and unmistakable “Saturday morning cartoon” vibes, and Garo, with its old school badass feeling and great familial character bonds. I loved those two shows and I still love them now.
