Slice-of-life comedy about a young woman and her giant cat who takes care of her. Series lacks an arc but amusing. Good production.

Plot-driven, focused on human and material aspects with the supernatural taking a backseat. Entertaining and, intended or not, even comical.

Based on the 1999 short film, a wholesome slice-of-life manga about a young woman from the perspective of her loving cat.

Mecha design and action generally look great. Decent pacing. That’s about it. Cardboard characters made worse with Netflix being woke.

Classic sci-fi military mecha anime. Good worldbuilding and decent pacing for its time. Entertaining even if it is a merchandising tool.

Decent and entertaining mild sci-fi horror. Despite whatever weaknesses, it is measured and consistent in most respects.

Solid coming-of-age, slice-of-life romance. Can argue about plotting and pacing but it is emotionally realistic.

Moderately funny but can be dark and serious in parts. Measured and balanced in most respects. Entertaining.

Post-climate-change-apocalyptic premise. Uninteresting with too many annoyances.

Decent production. Not bad, but the plot and themes could use more development as it is a little unfocused.

Moderately intriguing. Pacing can be better but no big deal. Nicely edited. Amusing score. Go Min-si is flipping nuts. But in a good way.

Solidly enjoyable slice-of-life drama-comedy about a 27-year-old given a chance to relive the final year of high school.

Opening is a bit muddled but settles into a grim slice-of-life “try to leave out our final days in peace” drama. Ending is bad and cheap.

Clumsy plotting. Too many cringe moments. Jedi Master Squid Game carries the show.

Amusing and entertaining but can be deeper and funnier. Good production and performances.

Predictable. Lacks action. Lacks tension. Disappointing no matter how much one loves Jessica Alba.

Not bad but could go further with the paranoia and suspense. Think of it as a version of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Decent pacing but derivative. Needs more convincing firefights. Solid performances mask the cheesiness. Still entertaining and funny.

Solid action-mystery-thriller drama with decent pacing and signposting. Moderately intriguing. Entertaining.

Nothing particularly original but good pacing, production and performances. Overall, both films are still solid and enjoyable.
