Let me start this review with a message to everyone who didn’t give Wolverine a chance because of Iron Man: it’s really not bad! Wolverine and Iron Man are completely different series. They were written by different people, directed with different people and have completely different purposes. Iron Man was just crap in nearly every single [...]

The only bad part of this episode was the point where Hideki set off the self destruct mechanism of the building he was in. I mean, hello? You’ll be the one to inherit that thing; why the heck are you destroying it? And heck: if you’re going to destroy a building, do it properly and [...]

Logan throws the toxic dart he'd earlier retrieved at Hideki but Hideki is behind a barrier of some sort and protected.  Vadhaka stomps in and begins to attack Logan with neither gaining the advantage.

Yes, this is the underdog of the season. I’m really glad that I decided to blog it, especially after the disappointment that was Iron Man. It’s nowhere near the best of the season, of course and I know that it doesn’t match up to juggernaughts as Level E, Madoka Magica and Hourou Musuko thanks to [...]

I know 15,532 episodes late.  I only got the inspiration to blog this after watching Kick-Ass.  A movie at par with watching your mom knock out a guy with a punch. Give the finger.  Spit on him. Then say bitch.  Finally, motioning you to follow as she nonchalantly walks away with toilet paper stuck on [...]

SPOILER Summary/Synopsis:  Hideki arrogantly boasts on TV the location of the imprisoned Yukio, knowing that she's contained in a large cuboid metal box with very thick walks and entrances covered by Vulcan-like cannons.  Logan wants to go take care of this problem but Koh reminds him of his agreement to assist Koh. Logan is annoyed with Koh's putting revenge over his granddaughter but listens to

This episode kicked ass! It was just simple action, but that’s exactly what this show is best at. Wolverine isn’t anything deep, but the things that it’s supposed to do, it does really well here. Ten episodes in, and it’s still consistently entertaining action that has shown very few, if any, unexpected weak moments. It [...]

Okay. That was a lot of action. Seriously, these bad guys don’t know the meaning of overkill. This episode was worth watching, if only to see the ridiculous amount and size of all the things they threw at Wolverine, to just prevent him from ascending that freakishly long Hell Road. It was a complete carnage [...]

Last season, I didn’t give Madhouse’s Iron Man much of a chance due to a couple of reasons: 1) I found the anime to be a bore. Despite all the action and energy, I didn’t care for anything that was … Continue reading →

This episode again didn’t put any supernatural powered opponents against Wolverine, but instead it spent a lot of time again on buildup (which now seems t be finished, though) and a fight against two random goons in some impenetrable… box. It was quite entertaining, though. They went through so much length to set up the [...]

SPOILER Summary/Synopsis:  Cyclops arrives in the modified SR-71 and picks up Logan and Yukio, sarcastically commenting on Logan's selfish summonings as if Cyclops were a taxi driver. Their bickering makes Yukio wonder about them, but Logan claims they are best friends, something Cyclops finds surprising.  He agrees to fly them to Madripoor and makes mention that he noted a plane flying in that

Their fight goes down to the streets below when a device on Omega Red's suit goes off. Yukio throws her chakram at Omega Red, which he deflects, causing it to wedge in the wall. She then yells to Logan to hurry

SPOILER Summary/Synopsis: As Omega Red has Logan secured in his carbonadium tentacles, Yukio can do nothing but continue to lob molotov cocktails down while Asano's team takes down the yakuza and attempts to secure some of the cargo as evidence.  Meanwhile, Logan manages to kick open a door on the ship to cause a backdraft which allows him to get free of Omega Red.  He recalls sometime earlier in
