Something’s odd about Sankarea, from my perspective. Maybe it’s the fact that contrary to what I thought going in, I’ve come out thinking that the characters and themes are surprisingly interesting for the kind of show that it is. So I guess going in expecting shit and coming out thoroughly impressed is a surprisingly new [...]

First of all let me apologize for not being able to review the first episode. My laptop broke and I was unable to write. Fortunately my fellow colleague, Xana, had written it for me and I am very grateful for that.  So then without further ado let us start talking about this episode.  As expected [...]

Sankarea – Episode 02 Once again, Sankarea manages to deliver some high quality entertainment. This episode was a little slower and darker than last week’s, since the primary focus was on showing a little more of Rea’s difficult past. Synopsis: The majority of this episode is spent giving some background for Rea, and it’s presented [...]

Rea’s father is definitely a sick man. Too sick, maybe. Is he a pedophile? Does he harbor incestuous feelings for his daughter? Who knows? The creepy vibes are certainly there, but I won’t throw labels around nonchalantly. But this doesn’t … Continue reading →

Damnit, that was a pretty manly ohimesama-dakko scene. Seriously, fuck that perverted dad. There is a fine line between extremely doting and paedophile. HNNNNNGH Rea is so cute. Yes, this is why I followed the manga despite the premise. Rea is just to HNNNNGH to miss out on. I’m very satisfied with how the anime [...]

So this week’s episode is a closer look into Rea’s life. We see that her father is just a little bit excessively obsessive when it comes to Rea, to the point of manipulating her life to keep her from getting close to any person or animal. It explains why someone like Rea would even remotely [...]

Episode 02 - Now this was a rather surprising episode. The 1st episode to Sankarea didn’t really do too much aside from basic character introductions, as well as establishing hints at some of the basic backstory to the characters. This episode, on the other hand, went all out with exploring the backstory to our main [...]
