Pluto (2023) ~ Anime Talk

Last week, I was feeling pretty bored, and I thought to myself, "Why not kick back and watch something on Netflix?" So, I did just that, and I stumbled upon "Pluto" Title : Pluto Studio : Studio M2 Aired : Oct 26, 2023 Total Episode : 8 (@1 hour) MAL Score : 8.79⭐ As someone who loves anime, sometimes I also read Manga. When I've got some downtime, I often turn to YouTube for manga recommendations. It's my go-to for discovering new and exciting stories. And, without fail, "Pluto" had been cropping up in my recommendations for quite some time. It was like the internet gods were telling me, "You've got to check this one out."

Sousou no Frieren (2023) ~ 3 Episodes Rule

So... I've watch the first 3 episode of Sousou no Frieren, but boy oh boy... I can already tell that this anime will not end good for my heart.

If you're looking for friendly recommendations, you're in the wrong place. The "3 Episode Rule" is about making quick decisions. You see, the first three episodes of an anime can pretty much set the tone for the entire show. You don't have time to waste on nonsense, so this is where you figure out if it's worth your precious time or not. It's an unspoken rule in the anime world. In this corner, I'll be watching a mix of highly recommended anime and some of the trashiest Isekai out there. Yeah, I know, some of them are downright dumpster fires, but you never know when you might stumble upon a hidden gem, even in the trash pile. This is what I will do :  1.
