  • ONE PUNCH MAN

    Posted on May 15, 2017 2:32 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Training so hard that he went prematurely bald, the part-time hero Saitama has become the strongest man alive. So strong that most enemies are utterly annihilated by a single punch… so strong that he barely feels much of anything anymore. One day he meets a young cyborg who desperately wants to become his disciple after witnessing that power, and his condition for this is for the two of them join the Hero Association together.

    An action-heavy and somewhat gory battle shounen parody. Though initially comedy-centric and focused on Saitama, it eventually adopts more of an ensemble structure while introducing hints of drama.

  • Ginga Senpuu: Braiger

    Posted on May 15, 2017 6:30 am by Offkorn Comment

    The mercenary company Cosmoranger J9 consists of four core members: The leader Issac, their pilot Bowie, Kid the sharpshooter, and Angel, an espionage/sabotage specialist. Their self-proclaimed mission is to keep the various criminal organizations in check by taking on jobs the authorities cannot.

    An action series featuring all different types of action, from blaster fights on the ground to super-robot mecha fights in space. While it does include dramatic aspects, they’re presented in an over-the-top manner that may be difficult to take seriously.

  • Choujikuu Kidan: Southern Cross

    Posted on May 9, 2017 12:57 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Far in the future humanity has begun to colonize other parts of the galaxy, with one of their most recent colonies being located at the edges of known space. Here the Southern Cross defense force is drawn into a war following the sudden appearance of an advanced alien race in the skies above. A conflict in which Jeanne Fránçaix, the inexperienced and irresponsible 2nd officer of the 15th Squad, will end up playing a large role.

    Lots of mecha action with periodic bursts of comic relief arising from Jeanne’s carefree personality. Eventually various dramatic revelations are added along with a few romance subplots.

  • GANTZ:O

    Posted on May 7, 2017 1:41 pm by Offkorn Comment

    After being stabbed to death in a train station, Masaru Katou finds himself transported to a sparse room filled with several other people. There it’s explained that his old life is over and in this new life he must hunt down and kill aliens in an elaborate death game.

    A full-CGI sequel to the 2004 TV series Gantz that can be viewed as a stand-alone story. It mostly consists of gore-heavy action scenes, though there’s also some drama and a small amount of romance mixed in.

  • Ajin OVAs

    Posted on May 7, 2017 9:03 am by Offkorn Comment

    Short stories taking place both before and during the main Ajin series.

    The first is a prequel focused on drama featuring Shinya, a university student who discovers that he’s an Ajin following a fatal motorcycle accident. The second is a collection of comedic ‘behind-the-scenes’ character-based segments, each of which takes place at a different part of the parent series. The third is an action-centric prequel centering on the event that triggered Satou’s transformation from soldier to terrorist.

  • Ajin

    Posted on May 6, 2017 5:45 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Ajin: Immortal beings able to manifest powerful avatars made of dark particles. Hunted by the government for research purposes and vilified as inhuman monsters, a group of Ajin come together to form a terrorist organization with visions of forcing reform. Meanwhile, an otherwise normal student recently revealed to be an Ajin finds himself on the run from both groups.

    The first half of the show is an action drama focused on Kei Nagai’s capture and eventual flight from government agents, with Satou’s terrorist actions providing the backdrop. The second half however transitions into something closer to an agency thriller, with the conflict between special forces and the terrorists taking center stage.

    On an alternate plane there exists beings neither human nor god who control the forces of nature on Earth. As a right of passage, on their 16th birthday they travel there to spend a week experiencing the elements firsthand while avoiding the attention of humans. During this period a girl by the name of Chun accidentally causes the death of a human boy, setting in motion a chain of events that threaten to destroy the heavens.

    A high-fantasy fairytale drama with a small number of action scenes mostly concentrated in the third quarter and a bit of romantic development.

  • Kekkai Sensen: Ou-sama no Restaurant no Ou-sama

    Posted on May 2, 2017 4:01 pm by Offkorn Comment

    The members of Libra are invited to a dinner party as congratulations for successfully defending the town, a gathering that gets crashed by a criminal organization.

    A mix of comedy and action similar to the parent series weighted heavily toward comedy. While it takes place after that, the story is essentially stand-alone as long as you know who the characters are.

  • Tales of Zestiria the X

    Posted on May 1, 2017 8:11 am by Offkorn Comment

    Alisha is a princess desperately trying to avoid war while searching for a ‘Shepard’ to save the land from an encroaching darkness. Sorey is the lone human in a village of seraphim, beings invisible to most humans, who loves exploring ancient ruins. A chance meeting between the two sets in motion events that just may change the world.

    An action drama with comedic ‘next episode preview’ segments. While almost entirely an adaptation of the Zestiria video game, a couple episodes (5-6) adapt the beginning of Beseria. Note that the Doushi no Yoake special is included here in a slightly altered form.

  • Lupin Sansei: Hemingway Paper no Nazo

    Posted on April 7, 2017 1:19 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Lupin and the gang, each for their own reasons, all end up traveling to the same Mediterranean island at the same time. There they find themselves embroiled in a conflict between the armies of rival treasure hunters.

    A stand-alone story just like the ones found in the parent series; a combination of over-the-top action scenes mixed with comedy. This one does not dip into fantasy and plays things relatively seriously.
