Mononoke (2007)
NO WAY this has such a high rating!! NO WAY!!
Don't bother watching this. I promise you will be upset that you forced yourself to watch the whole thing. It's a High School Art project at best. If you like Art projects great. And I'm literally only talking about the animation. Yeah it's different. Different doesn't mean better.
There is no there there. The story is extremely boring and extremely slow. I couldn't find a single episode where I found myself wanting to know what happens next. If you decide to watch this and can't get past the first episode then you won't like the rest of the episodes either. I love anime! This was excruciating to watch.

Skip it
What a waste of time. The Animation is great. The music not so much. The story and plot was so annoying for the first 4 Episodes I can't imagine anyone wanting to finish the series. I will because I don't do that on principle. I found myself wondering when Ripley was going to show up and start shooting Aliens. A better comparison and a better movie to compare it to that's not an Anime would be "Sunshine". Watch that...I'm sure it would be more enjoyable. They went through every science fiction trope you can think of and they did a lousy job in the process. I'm going to have to recommend skipping this one.
Thermae Romae Novae (2022)
Literally one of the stupidest Anime's I've ever watched.
I'm surprised Netflix even decided to put this on their platform. It's rated TV-MA but it's literally a history lesson and a show for kids. So not only will adults be annoyed with it because it's so freaking boring but kids can't watch it either. I'm dumbfounded by this. I can't comprehend why this series got such a high rating except by the people who decided to make this garbage. And that's what it is garbage. I'm sorry a 7 rating for this nonsense when other anime that's twice as good is getting a rating of 6.3. IDMB should be ashamed about this. The only people rating this show are the people who made it. It's beyond slow, the same thing happens every episode, there is no real story and it becomes quite annoying to watch....and I LOVE ANIME!!!!!!
Dennô koiru (2007)
Frustrating!!
This series isn't for kids or adults. The plot is confusing and annoying. The science aspects were okay but they were never important for the story. The animation was okay. That's the only good thing I can say about it. Except the time alloted to the kids. Otherwise the anime was horrible. I don't understand why this got high ratings. It's confusing and flips around to make it more confusing. I watch a lot of anime and this was an exercise in just trying to finish it without wasting my time sitting through every episode. Do not watch this. There are plenty of better anime out there. Took me 3 days to get through this.... don't do what I did.
