And daggonnit – I’m not getting any of that! So here we’ve come to the end, of the season anyway. I have no idea if this will get another season, but I will say I’m a tad disappointed. Is it because I’m wading into unfamiliar waters? I rarely view josei, yaoi or any other material […]

And here I was sure that Karneval would just be a bland disappointment all the way through. And overall, I may still be right. But with these last two episodes, it looks like the show is going to blow its load like- well, I won’t be vulgar. Let’s just say that this show is taking […]

I’ve come to grips with why I’ve yet to drop this disappointing show. It’s not because it’s bad, it’s not. And it’s not because it’s boring, though it certainly can be at times. It’s because of Gareki. If they don’t make his character awesome by the end of this it will be an unforgivable waste. […]

I have to say, I’ve completely underplayed a certain aspect of the story of Karneval.  But to be fair, this show has a habit of underplaying things.  And when I’m not sure if a character is dead or not, and it’s not because I don’t see the character die, then I think something is being […]

Well, if that wasn’t a let down. Not the episode mind you, but Yogi’s non-rampage. Regardless, there’s still plenty to digest here as we see a bit how the “other side” of Karneval lives. Man, I was so excited about Yogi and his rampage. Well, all it managed to do was make a major mess […]

Snow Box Who would have thought our sweet and fun-loving Yogi could turn into an insane, crazy, yandere for Gareki  monster? If you asked me to describe Karneval in 3 words my answer would be: … what’s going on? Seriously. I can’t even follow this anime anymore. It’s too stop-start-y. The plot doesn’t flow. It’s […]
