With their bright colors, heartfelt slice of life shows, and an extremely cute aesthetic, it’s hard not to associate them with them with anime and the culture that surrounds the medium. KyoAni, however, is a company unlike any other…

With YU-NO: A Girl Who Chants Love at the Bound of this World, a classic Visual Novel getting a remake and anime adaptation, many people are now being exposed to the work for the first time. On first impression, however, YU-NO can be seen as nothing more than an old Visual Novel, with a decent majority of players also…

With Project Scarlett and Next Gen PlayStation already announced with many juicy bits and AMD announcing some new components, I’ve been spending some time speculating on what could possibly be in the next gen consoles. If you’re not into technobabble, feel free to skip this article, but I’d like to ramble about the…

Are you a fan of Ever 17 but have serious problems with how the game has aged? From the nearly glacial skip speed to the questionable translation, the original Hiramaki English release of Ever 17 has some issues that are almost painful in the modern era, but you don’t have to live with these issues any more thanks to…

There’s nothing quite like 428 Shibuya Scramble. It’s been a long time since I first learned about this game, 4 years in fact, but I’ve always been eager to get my hands on it, my excitement never dwindling. From it’s 40/40 score on Famitsu to the insane budget and quirky visuals this game has to offer, there’s…
