Why was I reminded of Akira in this episode……? Well we didn’t have to eat humble pie this week. Anitwitter is usually spot-on, and it seems like they got this one nailed. Ayumi has pretty much become [...]

I think I might be in a permanent catchup mode.  Sorry about that. Charlotte 4 is a throwaway episode, I hope.  The gang go and stop a pitcher from a nearby high school team to stop using telekinesis [...]

This week’s Charlotte begins with a rather unpleasant scene of Nao being dragged out of class and beaten behind the school by a mob of other girls. Yuu follows but doesn’t interfere, but what’s [...]
