rests in the hands of the mentally
fragile Shinji and his Ava unit this is

Safety Bureau have more than earned
their spot as a modern classic

steep one something our two enforcers

being a detective is actually about it’s

phone operated microwave to send text
messages to the past and consequently
alter the present
rintarou Okabe and his fellow unorthodox
research team find themselves in a whole
heap of trouble we might be on to
something kinda seems like it huh
with timelines constantly switching and
collapsing not only do we end up with
some side-splitting comedy but also a
dramatic thriller time maybe in their
control but it’s most certainly not on
their side just going on number two
Gundam series watch me I’ll stop you
how could we not include the expansive
franchise that practically wrote the
book on robots kicking the crap out of
each other
pioneering the genre with Mobile Suit
Gundam all the way to iron blood orphans

to each of the series’s main cast each
