Using CrunchyRoll to Watch Anime
I used to watch anime on Netflix or some other websites (if you watch anime, you probably know what I am talking about), but I recently began subscribing to CrunchyRoll’s “Mega Fan” plan ($9.99/month). Compared to CrunchyRoll, Netflix has a small collection of anime in the US, and only has mostly older seasons for the…

Alice in Borderland Season 2 is a Must Watch!
Alice in Borderland season 1 was one of my favorite Japanese shows, and I always thought it was way better than the Squid Game (similar genres, but Alice in Borderland never got the same recognition globally). Season 2 of Alice in Borderland was a continuation of season 1, which had left off on a bit…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Hulu: Welcome to Wrexham
I’m not a huge soccer fan, although with the World Cup going on I have been watching more soccer recently than ever before. Welcome to Wrexham though, is a show that like Ted Lasso, transcends soccer. Welcome to Wrexham is a real-life story about the Wrexham Football Club, which was recently bought by Ryan Reynolds…

Best Anime to Watch: Classroom of the Elite
Classroom of the Elite is an anime that was recommended to me by the Cruncyhroll algorithm, and it did not disappoint. Classroom of the Elite is a short anime right now (still coming out, but only 2 seasons and 24 episodes that have been released), so it is a good time to start before season…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Netflix: Cyberpunk Edgerunners
Cyberpunk Edgerunners is a recently released anime on Netflix based off of the popular video game Cyberpunk. I never was able to finish Arcane (the animation series based off the video game League of Legends), but I would imagine it is a somewhat similar concept. Cyberpunk Edgerunners is an anime, but the animation is a…

Dragon Zakura 2 is a sequel to the popular show Dragon Zakura (it came out in 2005 though, so I have not seen that one yet). The star of Dragon Zakura 2 is Hiroshi Abe, who was voted the most popular actor in Japan last year. Dragon Zakura 2 is about a lawyer/teacher who uses…

Best Japanese TV Shows to Watch: Teiji De Kaerimasu
Teiji De Kaerimasu is an easygoing, fun drama that gives an insight into the work culture of Japan, as well as how it has been changing recently. Japan and most Asian countries aren’t known for their fantastic work cultures; Japan is known for making its workers do overtime, not take too much vacation time, and…

Best Anime to Watch: Ousama Ranking
Ousama Ranking is a feel-good anime, with the star of the show being Bochi, a mute/deaf prince. Although Bochi does not say a single word throughout the show, he is a great character and someone who is easy to root for. Ousama Ranking’s feels similar to an anime version of The Alchemist, and is an…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Apple TV: Severance
Apple TV has been on quite a roll recently with TV shows (Pachinko, Ted Lasso, etc.); the hit rate on Apple TV seems to be much higher than Netflix and most other streaming services, and Severance only brings this ratio up. The concept of Severance is an interesting thought experiment for real life. In the…

Best TV Shows to Watch on Netflix: The Lincoln Lawyer
The Lincoln Lawyer recently came out on Netflix, and it has been on the top 10 charts for the past couple of weeks (when I was watching it was #3). The Lincoln Lawyer is based on a book by Michael Connelly of the same name, and there also was a movie starring Matthew McConaughey released…
