B-
Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise (2025) Reuben Baron I had fun with Yumeginga Paradise, even if it wasn't as fun as the two seasons of television that preceded it.

B
The Red Spectacles (1987) Reuben Baron Though I was a bit too baffled by The Red Spectacles to love it or declare it a great movie, I was never bored by it.

C-
Scarlet (2025) Reuben Baron Scarlet is both Hosoda's worst-written and worst-animated movie, though its weaknesses aren't apparent immediately.

B-
Exit 8 (2025) Reuben Baron With its stylistic strengths, Exit 8 would make an amazing short film. As a feature, it's just good enough to enjoy.

B+
KPop Demon Hunters (2025) Reuben Baron It's energetic popcorn entertainment with a great sense of style and humor that would slay with a large audience.

B
Knights of Sidonia: Love Woven in the Stars (2021) Steven Jones I wouldn't call Love Woven in the Stars the best conclusion the Knights of Sidonia could have received, but ultimately, it balances action and the series' signature idiosyncrasies in a way that should satisfy audiences already invested in the anime.

Revue Starlight: The Movie (2021) Steven Jones Furukawa hones his craft into his sharpest point yet, eschewing linearity and clarity in favor of a sensory whirlwind that whips up its cast into a concatenation of passionate performances, sung in duet and fought in the crucible of the soul.

B
Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple (2018) Lynzee Loveridge Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple is a great example of what can happen when a series with a larger cast takes the time to find what makes its primary players essential.

A
Sword of the Stranger (2007) Lynzee Loveridge The movie has long been shared for its high-impact sword-fighting action, but there's plenty to appreciate in its quiet moments too.

B
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Eternal The Movie (2021) Lynzee Loveridge Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Eternal is consistently excellent visually and at times even manages to be emotionally evocative.

A
Memories (1996) Lynzee Loveridge Magnetic Rose is a masterclass in sci-fi that isn't bogged down in justification for its own existence. It's an effectively creepy ghost story set in a fully-realized sci-fi setting backed by creators at the top of their game.

A
Project A-ko (1986) Lynzee Loveridge By and large though, Project A-ko is a sci-fi comedy full of impressive action set pieces, mechanical designs, and physical humor that surprisingly still holds up over 30 years later.

B
Bubble (2022) Lynzee Loveridge Bubble is a film with a myriad of fantasy and sci-fi concepts but fails to rise above them to create truly compelling character relationships, a death knell for what is, at its core supposed to be a romance.

C+
Blue Thermal (2022) Reuben Baron It's not as if there's much that's actively bad about the movie, and a likable protagonist goes a long way towards keeping things breezy and enjoyable, but its pleasures are mild, and the experience of watching it is almost instantly forgettable.

B
One Piece: Stampede (2019) Sam Leach There's a good time at the movies to be had with Stampede, but I don't imagine its one that's going to stand out a few years from now.

B
Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F (2015) Sam Leach The realization that we're reuniting Goku, Vegeta and Frieza feels ripe for some kind of massive catharsis, but this movie's story is simply not that ambitious.
