With the help of a supercomputer humans became able to break the laws physics through a technology known as ‘Jushiki’, which allowed them to wield power similar to magic, an ability previously thought to belong solely to dragons and the abhorrents. Two hundred years following the discovery humans no longer fear either race and are instead locked in a state of constant warfare with them, with those known as Offensive Jushikiists serving as the front line.

An action series which periodically doubles as a character drama. It has a heavy political focus and minor romance, thriller, and comic relief elements.

No Game No Life Zero

Posted on June 3, 2018 5:14 am by Offkorn Comment

Six thousand years before Sora and Shiro were brought to Disboard the world had been reduced to rubble by the constant warfare between the various races. Lacking magical power or equivalent physical abilities, humanity has been reduced to the role of scavengers, picking through the wreckage looking for anything that will help them avoid becoming collateral damage. Leading them is a young man named Riku, who with the help of an abandoned android just may be able to light the spark that brings change to the world.

A flashback prequel to No Game No Life which features comparatively little comedic content. While meant to be watched after that series, it can also be viewed as a stand-alone.

Ryuuou no Oshigoto!

Posted on March 31, 2018 4:37 am by Offkorn Comment

As the youngest shougi champion in history at the age of 16, Yaichi Kuzuryuu has already reached the pinnacle of his craft. With nothing left to strive for though he quickly falls into a slump, a slump only broken by the sudden appearance of Ai Hinatsuru. Just 9 years old, Ai made Yaichi promise to accept her as his disciple during the earlier championship match and her fresh approach to the game ends up being just the thing to revitalize his own playstyle.

A show that’s part serious sports series and part comedy, mostly of the misunderstanding-based and harem variety, which includes a small number of ecchi and romance aspects. Note that while there is a distinct focus on lolis there’s no romantic attention directed toward them.
