Garo: Vanishing Line


A solid, above average action-adventure, much enlivened by its high calibre visuals, but held back by some rather rote storytelling.  For much of the duration, I was watching this at the same time as Blood Blockade Battlefront and, while Garo was certainly more consistent, I don’t think it ever felt really special, in the way that BBB does at its best.


Overlord s1


Of all the ‘trapped in an MMO’ series I’ve come across, this certainly has the most interesting spin on the concept and was always compelling in its execution, but it never really establishes a credible threat to the MC and feels like it spends the entire cour setting up something that has yet to arrive.  I’m keen to start on s2, but if I didn’t have the option to do so immediately, I think I’d have felt a bit short changed.
