Fullmetal Brotherhood - 100%



I recommend this anime to everyone.
Watched the entire 64 episodes with my wife and she enjoyed also.
One of the best story lines of any anime.
High quality animation. Great/epic ending.
Intriguing characters.

I liked how Al and Ed were not the strongest and didn't always win every fight.
This anime was more about a journey.

They split the focus between Al and Ed very well. 
The story was so rich! Little to no plot holes. Everything fit together so well.

Tokyo Ghoul S2 - 86%



The second season was better..
The sad part was.. after eye patch got his powers the story didn't really follow him as much.

So many random people in this show.
Who was the guy they broke out of prison and why did he get another beating from him?
Who was the girl wrapped up like a mummy?
Who was the son owl?
Who was the all powerful investigator? Why was he so strong?

Seemed like the show was more wrapped around the coffee shop than anything.

The ending was dumb. It showed him walking in the snow holding his dead friend for like 10 minutes

The mask was cool.... There were a couple of good moments.
I will probably watch S3 but I am not holding my breath.


Tokyo Ghoul S1 - 85%


Didn't much care for the main character. The gore/animation is high quality.
Nothing is given for a back story on how ghouls came about.
The origin of eye patch is a good story but he is so whiny!
I almost gave up on this series but I kept watching cause my friend said it got better..

My Hero Academia S2 - 95%



Not as good as S1 but still a fantastic show.
The school tournament was great.
They are doing a great job with keeping this about school.
The advance in powers was well done with the old man and all the tutors.
The story advanced well with the background of Almighty being revealed.

The only down sides were a little filler but they did focus on my favorite character (Frog girl).

The ending didn't leave you hanging as much but I am defiantly excited about watching another season when it comes out.

Van Helsing S1 - 90%



Surprisingly good. Some plot points felt like overdone zombie repeats but great for the most part.
Good twist on the Vampire / post apocalyptic. The character development was great. Killed them off at just the right times. Looking forward to season 2.

Rick & Morty S3 - 99%


So much hype but they lived up to it. I am not going to call out my favorites because they were all so amazing. But, The Rickshank Rickdemption and Pickle Rick were mind blowing. 

I was a little disappointed with the last episode. 

I watched all three seasons of R & R back to back and I can't wait for S4. 

I also started watching the breakdowns of each episode on youtube on the "New Rockstars" channel.


Rick & Morty S2 - 99%



Even better than season 1. Really came into its own.

Favorite episodes:
S2E1: A Rickle in Time
S2E2: Mortynight Run - Favorite of the season!
S2E5: Get Schwifty
S2E8: Interdimensional Cable 2: Tempting Fate
S2E9: Look who's Purging Now
S2E19: The Wedding Squanchers

I really liked where they flew into the planet because they thought it was bigger.


Rick & Morty S1 - 98%



This show is not for children. But, it is amazingly funny.
This show capitalizes on the back to the future doc and marty relationship.
The jokes are layered on one after another. There are levels, categories, callbacks, inside, outside. so many kinds of jokes.

Favorite episodes:
E2. Lawnmower Dog. Pictures of the dog show up again throughout the rest of the show.
E3. Anatomy Park.
E5. Meeseeks and Destroy
E6. Rick Potion #9

Don't get me wrong... They were all amazing but these stood out to me.
