“Calling all cars, calling all cars. Be on the lookout for another Skynet Review episode, approximately drunk with power and making picks at random...” We close out this edition of Skynet with an anime that defies expectation, logic, reason, and plot. No description does it justice. A girl and her father, mixed with powers and comedy somehow. We pr…

A hallowed tradition that reigns supreme within the Freshmen lore is a Night of reasoning; a meeting of the minds; a parlay of perspectives. We call it Quiz Night. Once again, the Freshmen test their Anime credentials against all challengers in a serie of challenges, this time against ourselves. How it went? If you win, you live. If you lose, you d…

The Anime Freshmen ranking system is as old as Old Man Yama, and as revered as Rock Lee's ankle weights. Our Brother Gerrd adores it so much he said we either use said ranking system or he'll snitch on us to Muzan. Strong words indeed. Nuff said. In this episode we rank things in anime. Yes, you heard right. THINGS. That's how much we love you. Als…

It is the Year 3000 and something. Humans now live in space and have evolved to photosynthesise for most of their energy needs.

As inevitable as the proverbial tide and the main shonen character befriending a once hated enemy, Skynet makes its return to our time to once again perform sexy jutsu. How ironic.

Sport. It incites a passion and fervour so strong that Shoyo Hinata looks like Snorlax in comparison. And with anime daring to touch most, if not all aspects of life, it comes as no surprise that this area of life is no exception to the rule. From ping-pong to basketball to ice skating, we get involved. We even touch on surfing....somehow. Chaaaa d…
