A masterpiece in the most literal way. It deserves 10x more attention than it receives, and for some reason I don't understand why it's not hyped more.

This is a review for overall all of Kingdom up to S5. S1 has that nasty cgi that can put you off, but that is for half of the season only, and then it gets much better. Story is already fantastic, S2 has a lot less of the cgi and the story gets better and better. S3 might be one of the best season in anime that I have watched, it is simply astonishing in magnitude, character development, it plays with your feelings and keeps you on the edge. One of the best arcs in anime that I have ever seen.

S4 and S5 are also packed with drama and fights, and maybe not as good as 3, but they are amazing in their own, everything develops, characters grow. S4 has a fantastic duel of words between Ryo Shi and Ei Sei where the king has such a winning speech that brought tears to my eyes, it moved me deeply. I never imagined that a duel of words could be so good.

I've made this review long it seems, but if you ever have a chance to watch Kingdom, go for it, it deserves so much more love and hype. I watched 140 episodes in a week off, and I can't wait for more honestly.

Slam dunk is the best sports anime ever made, period. There is no rival and there will probably never be. Closest thing that might come is Haikyuu, but still slam dunk manages to surpass it and for me, it's a masterpiece.

Created 30 years ago, the animation holds up beautifully, the comedy is exactly what you would expect from a boys' sports team, the heartfelt moments are genuine, and the nostalgia man, the nostalgia hits deep.

It's one of the very few animes that made me want to read the manga and I ordered it up, I hope one day they will finish it and a part of me will.be complete. Also, the coach went to play in Sakamoto days which is a nice bonus (wink wink).

I felt the need to leave this review because there are very few of them for this masterpiece, but as you can clearly see they are all glowing. Slam Dunk gave me shivers, hyped me up, even gave me a tear or two, and that original intro hits so deeps, it's absolutely perfect.

Go watch it, it deserves it.

I'm a few episodes and a movie away of finishing this masterpiece and before melancholy and sadness settle in and I can't think straight for a week I wanted to try to write a review for the masterpiece that is Gintama.

Why a masterpiece and why should you see Gintama almost 20 years since it first aired? Because it's as good as it was back then, maybe even more. It's the ultimate shounen comedy, the ultimate adventure, it has it all. At it's core, it's a shounen parody, but Gintama is sad, happy, uplifting, tragic and so much more. Almost 400 episodes later and I'm getting ready to finish this journey, which took me 6 months to see and everytime I saw another anime Gintama brought me back, with it's familiarity and comedy and quirk. I don't know how to describe the perfect journey that is Gintama, but I loved every second of it.

If you're wondering if it's worth it today - YES! Go watch it all, it has little to 0 fillers, and almost all seasons are rated 9 on MAL which means that for 15 years Gintama has kept it's consistency, and in today's world that seems impossible. You can watch it in 2-3-12-24 months, but once you get hooked to it, Gintama will be like family to you. Characters are perfectly fleshed out, comedy is at its peak, serious moments and heartbreaks when it's needed, everything.

I thought the story silly when I started, but I wanted to give it a chance, and it hooked me after 10-20 episodes, that's how good Sakata Gintoki is. He's your main lovable character, and I did not regret a second that I gave it a chance.

Like spyair (ost, op, ed's are also bangers, you will find some incredible music) would say - samurai heart *wink wink*.

Be forever yorozuya, if everyone could learn a few things from Gintama, the world would be a better place.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
