A NEET dies and chooses to be reincarnated into a fantasy world as a hero tasked to defeat a demon lord, but he ends up as a party of four semi-incompetent members.

Fun and funny!

After a convicted murderer’s execution, and when copycat killers become suicides, the original detective is dragged into what becomes a vastly more complex case.

Although I wouldn’t recommend this broadly, it was so impactful that I could only sketch out a vague description from memory and had to wait for the inception of artificial intelligence to help me track it down.

For some reason the Big Bad is waking up and some villagers are implicated in helping/hurting his/its/their/xur’s plans to do something to the world, or something.

This show is lacking from so many directions. It’s watchable, but irks me in ways I don’t want to sit down and think about long enough or I’ll get mad. You know what? I’m just going to start judging shows on if they have good looking women. Any, and if they are boss girls.

A top-down bullet hell game with character and item variation. This would have been great in the early 90s arcades.

It’s good/meh. Not really for me.

A somewhat open world semi-rpg action adventure game.

I can see the appeal from back in the day, but it’s pretty awkward now. Figuring out a fuckload of mods is mandatory, and even though that community has been going very very strong for a long time it’s fucking hard to do so.

A side-scrolling ship-shooter with upgrades.

While pretty neat, it’s unforgiving and a bit annoying.

2% of the global population disappears and everything continues on as usual probably.

Mediocre at best. Maybe something will happen later, but they sure as shit don’t get anywhere near to some point. It’s just a drama that stretches a premise.

In future with a colonized galaxy, a mad scientist develops an evolving quantum computer which he believes proves determinism and prediction of the collapse of civilization.

It started interesting, but dove into too many plotlines, timelines, and characters, and then space-wizards. I find it predictable and tedious, and I’m constantly nagged at there being zero good looking women, just passable persons of pigment hired for The Message.
