Yesterday I went to the first Disneyland I’ve ever been to outside of the US. It was… well interesting. I found that a couple of the rides were fun and exciting new takes on classic rides. For instance the Shanghai Pirates ride, while missing most of the water fall drops, was still an exciting visual… Continue reading Disneyland Shanghai – A Missed Opportunity
While mostly I focus these writing days on fiction, for the most part, I wanted to write a review for Vampyr, a game which I literally just finished. If you want to know more about the premise of the game I won’t go into it much here. Instead, I want to share some thoughts on… Continue reading Vampyr – Review
It’s been quite some time since I’ve done a post on this blog… hopefully this will change that. Now that it’s been some time since the Last Jedi came out, and I’ve had time to see it twice while properly think about it, I felt that it deserved a post. Let me say it up… Continue reading The Last Jedi
Recently I finished watching the show “Mayoiga The Lost Village” (迷家-マヨイガ). A sort of mix between Persona 4 and Lost. I’d say it was ok if not that great.

While season 3 I felt was no where near as good as 1 and 2, I believe season 3 has successfully… Continue reading House of Cards Season 4 – Review
I had to write a review of this as it was something of a recent favorite of mine that I feel is a bit of a sleeper hit. The Expanse is a recent TV show, on Syfy, based on a series of novels by James S. A. Corey. In many ways the story is political… Continue reading The Expanse – Review 6/7
Boku dake ga Inai Machi – Erased Having previewed most of current anime this season it didn’t take long to settle on a clear favorite. Boku dake ga Inai Machi or Erased as the English title is a mystery thriller with some light use of time travel. It’s hard to describe Erased without spoilers so… Continue reading Best Anime of Winter 2015 Season – Boku dake ga Inai Machi
I know these reviews normally done at the end of December but I needed some extra time to see the top contenders this year, but it’s only been a bit over a month! So on that note let’s get to it! 5 – Death Parade In a mysterious bar two people arrive and are told… Continue reading Top 5 Anime of 2015
I couldn’t let 2015 get too far away before I reviewed this. Hands down not only my favorite game of 2015 but most likely I’d say one of the best games I’ve ever played. For those who don’t know the Witcher 3 is the third installment (clearly) in the Witcher video game series that’s originally… Continue reading Best Game of 2015 – Witcher 3 – Review
