My top 10 Christopher Sabat anime performances

If you're a fan of anime, then it's more than likely that you've heard the voice of this famous anime voice actor, Christopher Sabat. Easily one of the most iconic anime dubbing voice actors ever. Practically appearing in so many different anime and doing the voice of so many characters, whether they're super popular or minor characters. And so, I decided to count down my top 10 favourite performances from him. The majority of his roles consist of him playing super tough guys. This won't be counting on the characters themselves, just on Sabat's performance as them. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
10. Yamcha (Dragon Ball):

Starting us at number 10 is arguably the most infamous and useless anime character of all time. And while the character of Yamcha is hilariously useless, the actual performance from Christopher Sabat as him is at least something good to talk about. With him capturing the cowardly aspects to him, but also the later friendliness and commitment side to him. 'Cause, even though he's far from the strongest character in the series, he's at least likeable in the sense that he does care for everyone around him and he is a good friend to them. And Sabat's voice for Yamcha is probably the most different out of all the characters I've heard him play.
9. Yami (Black Clover):

Next up is the head of the Black Bulls, Yami. A wielder of Dark Magic and a swordsman himself, Yami is a gruff and hardened man who won't put up with any kinda nonsense anyone might give him. I've always enjoyed whenever Sabat has been able to play a whole bunch of characters with various personalities. Some are arrogant, some are a bit more caring and some, like Yami, can be gruff and act like they don't care that much about anything. And Sabat is really good at showing that with Yami. He's also fun to watch in contras to the other members of the Black Bulls.
8. Elfman (Fairy Tail):

Compared to some of Sabat's other voices, his work as Elfman is one of his most different. I know that applies to a few others as well, but Elfman is one of them. A lot of the time, Sabat does the same voice for some of these, but he'll occasionally do a different one, and Elfman's voice is one of them. At the beginning, his character is pretty usual manly anime character-like, but as the series progresses, he gets more heartfelt moments and Sabat does a great job with it. And his different sounding voice does a great job showing that, even his intentional over the top sounding moments.
7. Raizen (Yu Yu Hakusho):

The first of the characters that Christopher Sabat has voiced in Yu Yu Hakusho, Yusuke's great ancienter, Raizen. Believed to be the most powerful demon to ever live, Raizen power is exemplified in his first interaction with Yusuke himself, and Christopher Sabat does that really well. With being incredibly intimidating, creepy but also kinda kind when he's talking to Yusuke when he's dying, it makes for a really interesting character and one that Sabat did a great job with.
6. Kuwabara (Yu Yu Hakusho):

The other character from Yu Yu Hakusho that Christopher Sabat has voice is this stupid, yet awesome spirit swordsman. And even the voice he uses is supposed to give off the idea that he's dumb and the whole friendliness and softness to Kuwabara is a big part of his character. I was honestly surprised to find that Sabat actually voiced him, but I guess that's just a testament to his acting talents.
5. Alex Armstrong (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood):

At number 5 is the major from Fullmetal Alchemist, Alex Louis Armstrong. This performance falls under a lot of these others in that I love when he's supposed to be really funny and intentionally over the top, but I also love when Sabat is able to bring a level to seriousness to a character that this, which I think helps makes them more likeable. But, like I said, Sabat does a great job with all of his emotions, whether it's comical, serious, sad, happy or anything like that.
4. All Might (My Hero Academia):

When it comes to manliest characters that Sabat has voiced, the best of them has to be All Might. And his performance as All Might is especially impressive because he has to use two voices. One where he's in his muscular form and another in his normal slim form. In his muscular form, his voice is very heroic and stoic and big and booming whereas his slimmer form voice is more calm and quiet by comparison and is pretty much the normal voice Sabat uses for a lot of these other characters. I have to give him a lot of respect for being able to not only do two voices like that for one character, but make it really convincing and awesome all the same.
3. Piccolo (Dragon Ball):

At number 3 is the Namekian villain turned hero, Piccolo. Now we're getting into Sabat's three most popular roles and the ones I think he does best at. And the first of these is Piccolo. One thing that a lot of dubbed anime do is that the actor's voice for their characters sorta changes as it goes along and I feel like that's to show the characters themselves changing, like getting older. And Piccolo is a good example of this because in the original Dragon Ball, his voice sounded slightly higher compared to his later voice. But Sabat does a great job voicing Piccolo and especially his arc from the beginning of Z to the ending. But he continued showing why he's so good in this series in Super where Piccolo didn't really go through any arc, but he's still a fantastic and likeable character.
2. Roronoa Zoro (One Piece):

Coming in close to number 1 is the ex-pirate hunter and swordsman for the Straw Hat Pirates, Zoro. And the voice that Sabat uses for Zoro is the same voice he uses for a lot of these other characters like Piccolo, Raizen and Yami. And it's always cool to hear him using this one in particular given how tough and cool it makes his characters sound. And Zoro is my favourite of the characters he uses it for. And he's used it for a lot of Zoro's best moments, whether they're awesome moments with him or his comedy moments with Luffy or Sanji or his more sentimental moments.
And my number 1 favourite Christopher Sabat anime performance is... Vegeta (Dragon Ball):

And finally at number 1 is the arrogant and prideful Saiyan prince, Vegeta. Christopher Sabat has voiced so many anime characters in his life, but none have been as iconic and as well recognised as Vegeta. As the series has gone on, Sabat's voice for Vegeta has changed little by little, but it's always remained awesome and it's essentially one of the many things that makes Vegeta the awesome character he is. This is like what I was saying about how his voices usually change as the series he's in goes on, and Vegeta is the biggest example of that. Particularly in the Cell Saga where his voice sorta changed a few times from a higher pitch to a deep one, but in Super, it's always the same that Vegeta is most known for and is definitely his best. Really, this role alone should just convince anyone why Sabat is an incredible actor, with Sabat capturing every single one of Vegeta's popular emotions and moments. And all that is why Vegeta is my favourite Christopher Sabat performance. And those are my top 10 Christopher Sabat performances. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Kingdom Hearts: Melody Of Memory

And so, everyone, we've finally arrived at the newest Kingdom Hearts game, Melody Of Memory. As per usual with these games, I was insanely excited for this. But, like what I said in my opening of the game video I did, I mentioned how I wasn't to buy it the normal way with just going to a game shop and buying it. I had to order it on the website of my local GameStop and have it get delivered to my house due to the CoronaVirus. But I was anticipating every single second of waiting for it to arrive. And, ever since it did arrive, I've practically been playing it nonstop. In fact, in terms of the main story of the game, I beat the thing in one day in just 9 hours. I know that's probably nonsensical, but, I couldn't help it. It was super addicting and it was amazing to finally have a Kingdom Hearts game on the Switch. And I was so satisfied with what I got, I loved so much about this game. Also, for this, I'm going full spoilers about the whole thing from the beginning because I feel it's the only way to talk about this properly. All right, so you all more than likely know that this is actually a timing rhythm game. Unlike the other games which were hack and slash J.R.P.G's, this, this is essentially all a rhythm game. There's no actual combat in this at all like the others. And, so, the story objective of the game is that you go to almost every world from all the previous Kingdom Hearts games and do timing rhythms in all of them to destroy Heartless. And, every once in a while, you'll hear a narration from Kairi telling the plot of the games, especially everything Sora's done. And, that's really it until the end. Until the end, it's all just going to the previous worlds and doing these different songs. And a lot of them are really fun and exciting to do. Not to mention, addicting. Like I already said, this game is really addicting. But it's cool to play through these worlds and it's especially just really cool to be doing this on the Switch, which, I must say, was really exciting to do because, even though the likeliness of this happening is low, seeing these Kingdom Hearts moments on the Switch, especially the Kingdom Hearts 3 ones, gave me more hope of eventually getting the other Kingdom Hearts games ported onto the Switch one day. I would absolutely love that. Again, I know it's unlikely, but still, it's cool to think about. Anyway, going though these worlds and songs was really exciting. Especially my favourite songs and bits on music in the series. Not only in the main story, but in the main menu, you can select a library of other songs and music from the series and it was really exciting being able to go though those as well. And, the whole time, you have four teams. Sora, Donald and Goofy, Roxas, Axel and Xion, Riku, Meow Wow and Komory Bat and Aqua, Ven and Terra. Personally, I used Sora, Donald and Goofy the most, but I did use the others occasionally. You unlock the other three teams as you go along. But, like I said, you keep going through the whole thing until the end where there's finally some real cutscenes and a real piece of the plot. And now we're gonna get into the end. The last one you go to is the Final World as Kairi. This is the part I was most excited for. The first thing you have to do is just go through another music of the regular music from the Final World. After that, you gather the pieces of her heart like you did as Sora in Kingdom Hearts 3, so that was really cool. And, finally, Kairi comes face to face with someone in an Organization coat who it turns is Xehanort and they talk until Kairi attacks him. And it looks like she loses until the Kingdom Key appears in her hand and then, somehow, she sorts takes on the appearance of Sora. This was all clearly in her head, but it was so cool. For a second, when I saw the Kingdom Key, I thought Sora had reappeared. But it's actually just Kairi taking on his appearance since this is in her head. So, you fight against Xehanort on a music stream with the music that played when you fight him at the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. That was cool, though I do wish that it was Kairi because that would have been really cool to see her in battle. But, anyway, once you beat him, we see a memory of Kairi's when she was a small girl and Xehanort put her in a device that sent her to Destiny Islands. And then we see the Xehanort with her there tell her about how Sora is in some fictional world. She then wakes up in Radiant Garden with Ienzo, Ansem The Wise and Even like she was at the end of Re:Mind. She then tells them what Xehanort said and Riku appears with the Fairy Godmother. That part was really cool. Just seeing her and Kairi interacting. They then go to the Final World where they meet that woman who Sora met and she reveals that Sora is probably at a place called Quadratum. So apparently it's not Shibuya like a lot of people thought. So, Riku ends up going there which explains where he was at the end of Re:Mind. But Kairi knows she's not powerful enough, so she goes back to tell Yen Sid and the others about it. She then also decides to have Aqua train her. Which is something I so called. I thought it would be cool for that to happen and now it finally did. That made me so excited. And, not only that, but Yen Sid also has King Mickey bring the others back from their search and tells him to begin looking into the old Keyblade masters in Scala Ad Caelum, and that as well got me insanely excited. And, yeah, the game just ends there. Not necessarily, but that's where the story ends. So, for everything in the story, I was extremely satisfied with it and I can't wait to see what happens next. Whatever the next game is and whatever happens next, I can't wait to see more. And, in terms of what else is in the game, this is actually why this review has taken this long because I finished the main story in just 9 hours in one day, but there were more worlds and songs to unlock in the world map like One- Winged Angel, Rage Awakened and The Other Promise. I really wanted to unlock all the worlds on the map before I did my review. So, I did. Really, I just started this game eager to see what it had to show and I left feeling really excited and curious for what'll be coming next. And I can't wait. And, so, yeah, everyone, that's my review of Kingdom Hearts: Melody Of Memory. I know this review wasn't super long like a lot of the other Kingdom Hearts reviews, but this just didn't have that much in it aside from the ending, which was a lot. The rest of the stuff was great and I loved it, but it's all just the same thing until that ending. And so, yeah, thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Sora opens Kingdom Hearts: Melody Of Memory

And so, everyone, it finally came. I finally, finally got my copy of Kingdom Hearts: Melody Of Memory. I got it later than usual because of the Coronavirus. We recently went back into lockdown here and so I wasn't able to go to my local GameStop and record myself buying it. But I did have it delivered to my house and when it came yesterday, I did a recording of me opening it in my Sora suit like I did last year with Kingdom Hearts 3. And, I was actually able to finish the whole thing yesterday too. Not 100%, but I finished the story mode and so I'll hopefully have my review for it up in the next couple of days. And so, here's me opening it and I hope you all like it.

My top 5 Yu-Gi-Oh! villains

When it comes to Yu-Gi-Oh!, I honestly think the whole series has some of the most underrated villains in all of anime. Some are really memorable with memorable designs, really great voice work and because of how unique they feel, it makes them stand out more in my opinion. And so, to comenorate that, I'm gonna count down my top 5 favourite villains in the franchise that I've seen. And, yeah, this won't just be counting the villains from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! anime, but from the other series I've seen. I haven't see Zexel or Arc V yet, so I'm going with the ones from the original, GX and 5D's. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Goodwin (Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's):

Starting us off at number 5 is the first main villain of 5D's, Goodwin. Goodwin is the head of public security in Neo Domino City, Goodwin puts on a friendly image to the public to cover up his own horrendous actions. Whether he's manipulating the people around him to gain more power or tricking and lying to them, he was doing all this with the hope of gaining the power of the Crimson Dragon. And, while no one really trusted him in the beginning, they at least went along with him since he was the only one with knowledge about the Crimson Dragon and the past and the Signers. He had even become a Dark Signer himself at the very end until Yusei, Jack and Crow took him down.

4. Pegasus (Yu-Gi-Oh!):

Next up is the very creator of Duel Monsters, Maximillian Pegasus. While he may have shifted sides later on in the series, Pegasus was a straight up villain the first time we ever see him. And, just like Yugi, he has a Millennium Item with his Millennium Eye, which he got in Egypt. Most of the time, he's shown as a cocky and over confident person who likes to manipulate people in the beginning. Though, mostly, he was originally planning to use the Millennium Items to resurrect his dead wife. But, after Yugi beat him in his own duelling tournament in Duelist Kingdom, he began to change his ways from a villain to a hero, especially when we see him in the later shows.

3. Zorc (Yu-Gi-Oh!):

At number 3 is the giant monster final villain at the end of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! series, Zorc. Being the final villain of the whole series, Zorc was created from the evil inside of people and wasted no time showing just how powerful he was. With powers that can destroy some of the most powerful monsters ever like the Blue Eyes White Dragon, Exodia and even the God Cards, it was prctically a miracle that Yugi and the others were able to destroy him.

2. Yami Marik (Yu-Gi-Oh!):

Coming close to number 1 is the main villain of the Battle City arc, Marik, or Yami Marik technically. After the original Marik was put through tragedy in his past, his dark self, Yami Marik, awoke and decided to terrorise the world. Equipped with the Millennium Rod, he proceeded to kill Marik's parents and then later take part in the Battle City tournament to get the Egyptian God Cards. And he began to send tons of people to the Shadow Realm as a result as well. He also came close to getting them all when he fought against Yugi in the finals of the tournament until the real Marik broke through and managed to banish Yami Marik forever.

And my number 1 favourite Yu-Gi-Oh! villain is...Yubel (Yu-Gi-Oh! GX):

And finally at number 1 is the main villain from the Dimension World arc from GX, Yubel. Now, this might be a slightly weird one, but I love Yubel as a villain. She's super cool with an awesome design, great plot around her and I absolutely love Cassandra Lee Morris's voice performance as her. In season 3 of GX, she did so much and she established herself as a really awesome character. She teleported all of Duel Academy to another dimension, manipulated a teacher there to serve her, took control over some student's bodies, tricked Jaden into becoming the Supreme King and came super close to uniting all twelve dimensions. And I love the setup for the character as the story keeps going and going. It starts with her inside of tank or something as like a lump with her red eye showing, but she keeps evolving and I love how the story keeps it going with her. Plus, not only do I like her as a character and think she's really cool, but I also like her connection with Jaden. The fact that she's actually a monster card that has her own consciousness, but when she grew attached to him and became obsessed with being his only friend, she began hurting others who she felt would replace her as his friend and so Jaden sent her into space in a rocket to hopefully help her only for her to be consumed with an evil energy and she resented him for sending her away. So, afterwards, she tried to do everything she could to get back at him and keep him as her own friend. Trust me, it makes a lot more sense if you actually watch it. And, really, again, I just love Yubel as a really great character and think she's seriously underrated as an anime villain. And all that is why Yubel is my favourite Yu-Gi-Oh! villain. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 Yu-Gi-Oh! villains. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 5 tournament battles in anime

So, few months ago, I made a list of my top 5 anime tournaments. And here, I'm doing something kinda similar but, instead of the tournments themselves, I'm gonna count down the best fights in the tournaments. Some of these might be a bit different with where they're placed and some will be new that were never in the first one. And given how tournaments are all about fights and are one of the best aspects about anime, I really wanted to focus solely on the fights themselves. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Naruto vs. Neji (Naruto):

Starting us off is the knuckle headed ninja going up against the Hyuga prodigy. During the finals of the Chunin Exam, Naruto goes up against Hinata's cousin in a small bit of revenge for almost killing her in their fight. But that proves more difficult than he thought with Neji being far to tough for him to handle. Even after unleashing tons of his clones on him and using everything he had learned up until this point, Neji's combat mastery proved too much. That is until Naruto unleashed Kurama's chakra and use absolute power to demolish Neji. But the ending of the fight sees Naruto using his head in battle by digging a hole in the ground and delivering a final punch that put Neji down for good in the fight.

4. Gon vs. Hisoka (Hunter x Hunter):

Next up is the best fight from Heaven's Arena, Gon vs. Hisoka. This was essentially being set up since the Hunter Exam. After Hisoka delivered a strong punch to Gon, he's been doing everything he could to get stronger and return it, which he did. After learning the basics of Nen from Wing, Gon challenges the magician to which both of them showing what they're made of. With Hisoka being superior to Gon is every way, this felt so one-sided for him. But the battle is still as rough and raw as you can imagine with the team behind the scenes demonstrating exactly what they had with making every action scene in this series as awesome as possible. Even a relatively small scale fight like this is still insanely brutal with Gon and Hisoka just punching each other like crazy. Gon may have gotten stronger and was able to hold his own for a little bit, he was still no match for Hisoka's skill and Nen abilities. It all ends with Hisoka winning and declaring their next fight will be a fight to the death.

3. Goku, Frieza and 17 vs. Jiren (Dragon Ball Super):

The Tournament Of Power will definitely go down in history as one of the best tournaments in all of anime. And by far the absolute pinnacle of this masterpiece is the final climatic fight with Goku and Frieza teaming up against Universe 11's strongest fighter. Before that though, we had the monumental clash with Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku against fully powered up Jiren, which is one of the most insane battles in all of Dragon Ball. But, for me, the best part out of all of it when the Saiyan, Galactic Space Tyrant and Android go up against Jiren with all the power they have left. And it ends with one of the biggest and most awesome finishes in all of anime. And this is given the fact that Goku and Frieza were just barely able to defeat Jiren at all.

2. Deku vs. Todoroki (My Hero Academia):

Coming in close to number 1 is the battle between these two future heroes, Deku vs. Todoroki. These two have had tougher battles later in their careers, but in the U.A sports festival, they practically tore each other apart with their quirks. With Todoroki being a master of his ice quirk and Deku barely handling One For All, this fight was pure desperation on his part. Like I've said before, in this whole fight, Todoroki is determined to not use his dad's fire quirk until Deku finally manages to convince him otherwise. Which combinates in a huge clash of them smashing their powers at each other in some of the most gorgeous animation you'll ever see. Deku may have lost the fight, but he definitely did what he set out to do and help Todoroki and get him to change his ways. Which also helped solidify them as friends from that point on.

And my number 1 favourite anime tournament battle is... Yusuke vs. Toguro (Yu Yu Hakusho):

And finally at number 1 is the final battle of the greatest tournament arc in all of anime, Yusuke vs. Toguro at the Dark Tournament. Some might see this fight as slightly dated, especially compared to most other anime released nowadays, but this fight holds up big time with everything both characters do. It does mostly focus on Toguro being able to beat Yusuke to a pulp, but Yusuke does get a lot of really amazing moves like when he releases the Spirit Cuffs around his arms, or when he starts smacking Toguro around after he releases them or near the end when he gets a power boost from thinking Kuwabara is dead and blasts Toguro with one last Spirit Gun. However, that whole part is right after Toguro unleashes his full demon power. Becoming an absolute monster, Toguro not only gains massive strength with his massive muscles, but he's also changed his appearance with grey skin and an overall deformed body. But Yusuke is still using all he can to secure victory, especially since this fight is more about him getting revenge on Toguro for killing Genkai. And, eventually, the climax all builds to one last ditch effort from both characters with Yusuke using all the power he has to blast one last Spirit Gun and Toguro unleashing 100% of his power. With both exhausted at this point, it all end with Yusuke finally wins when his power is finally able to put Toguro down for good. And even beyond the climax, the fight throughout is just amazing with both either smacking each other or going back and forth with their different ideologies on everything that's happened. And when Yusuke finally unlocks his true power, it's made all the more satisfying when he finally begins to take Toguro apart. And all that is why Yusuke vs. Toguro is my favourite tournament battle in anime. And so everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 tournament battles in anime. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 5 new characters in Dragon Ball Super

So, given how Dragon Ball Super was a huge sequel series for Dragon Ball Z, it, like all sequel series of a show, introduced a lot of new characters. And, some of which I think are kinda underrated and some are already beloved by so many fans of the franchise. And, seeing I personally enjoyed Super a tiny bit more than some people and enjoy it a bit more than Z, I came to like so many of it's new characters. I'm also not including Beerus and Whis on here because they were technically introduced in the Dragon Ball Z: Battle Of Gods and Resurrection F movies, so I'm not including them. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Caulifla:

Starting us off at number 5 is one of the female Saiyans from Universe 6, Caulifla. While, yes, in my review of Dragon Ball Super, I mentioned how she was kinda annoying because of her arrogance, I recently rewatched the Tournament Of Power and she kinda grew on me a bit more. She was still a little annoying, but I came to like her more. Not only does she have a really nice relationship with Kale, but she's also an awesome warrior with being full of confidence and holding her own well enough in the Tournament. Especially against Goku. Plus, she's just a fun character anyway and one that I hope we'll see again soon. I did also like other characters from Universe 6 like Kale, Cabba and Hit, but Caulifla was just my favourite from it.

4. Zamasu:

In terms of just straight up evil characters, Zamasu might have been my favourite new addition to the series. Which is strange since he was probably the only new one to the series. Anyway, I believe that Zamasu being introduced was the true start to the series because as soon as we began the Zamasu and Goku Black arc, this is when the series really became fantastic in my opinion. As one of the Kais, Zamasu saw human as meaningless beings who were destined to destroy themselves. So in order to correct whatever he saw fit, he hatched a plan to take over Goku's body and team up with another version of himself from another timeline. And everything with him was amazing. Especially since he was pretty much immortal which made it impossible to actually kill him. Taking over Goku's body also led to him destroying Trunk's timeline and killing all life on it.

3. Jiren:

At number 3 is probably the most underrated character in the entire Dragon Ball franchise in my opinion. Like I said in my review of Dragon Ball Super, a lot of people really didn't like Jiren and thought he was kinda boring, but, like I said, I really liked him. I think he has a pretty tragic backstory and is overall a super awesome character. Not only was he undoubtedly the strongest contestant in the Tournament Of Power, but he clearly lived up to that by eliminating other competitors with no effort whatsoever. Even when Goku had mastered Ultra Instinct, he was still having a hard time with him. He was also barely able to be eliminated by both Goku and Frieza when they teamed up at the very end to take him down. But, even regardless of how powerful he is, I still just liked him as a character too. And, given what happened at the very end where he declared he and Goku would meet again, I'm hoping we'll see him and Goku become friends and team up against someone soon. That would be awesome.

2. Zeno:

Coming in close to number 1 is the omni king himself, Zeno. Being by far the most powerful and revered character in the whole franchise, and probably in all of anime, Zeno is the one and only being, kind of, who rules over everything that exists. With the power to eliminate entire universes whenever he wants, it's no wonder he's feared by every single god of destruction. Even almighty characters like Beerus and Champa shake with fear and tremble just by seeing him. But what I love so much about him is his childish and innocent attitude towards everything. While he clearly understands what he's doing, he does it with such a childish personality that it makes it impossible not to love him. And it's made even better when Goku befriends him and even brings him another Zeno from another timeline. And, again, despite being a character who literally wipes out life without feeling anything, he does it in a way so that he's never unlikeable and always remains a likeable characters regardless.

And my number 1 favourite new character in Dragon Ball Super is... Broly:

And finally at number 1 is the rebooted version of the legendary Super Saiyan, Broly. While it's kinda cheating to put him on this list considering he appeared in the movie and not the series, the movie was still titled Dragon Ball Super: Broly, so it technically does still count. Plus, people have said similar things before, so I'm doing the same. Unlike the original version of Broly, who was essentially just a screaming, rage filled tank of a monster, this version is a fully fleshed out character with a sympathetic backstory, well shown depiction of his power and a likeable character overall. And, you do feel sorry for him the whole time you see him with him being trained his whole life to be a weapon by his father and never knowing anything besides fighting. Plus, it's just awesome to have a good version of this characters who's canon and may show up again some time in the future. Given the ending of the movie, he may join Goku and the other Z-Fighters at some point. He and Goku also agree to help train to become stronger which means we'll be seeing more of the two of them together. And all that is why Broly is my favourite new character in Dragon Ball Super. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 new characters in Dragon Ball Super. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

9 Star Wars movies ranked

So, this was something I was sorta having a bit of trouble making, but I eventually managed to do it. I did a ranking of all 9 episodic Star Wars movies. I uploaded this video yesterday and it was the first time I ever talked about Star Wars on my channel so I wanted to make it special. So, I decided to make a ranking video where I'm technically talking about all the movies and I'm talking about these like I've spoken about them before so that's why it might be weird hearing me say that considering I've talked about Star Wars for years on this blog. But, the reason I'm putting this on here is because I really wanted to do an updated ranking of all the movies now that the sequel trilogy is over. As well as also do one with hopefully better phrased sentences considering the last time I did this was probably before the Force Awakens came out and now I've gotten more experience with talking about movies like this analytically. And so, here it is and I hope you all like this.

My top 5 gun wielders in anime

So, about three months ago, I made a list of my top 5 swordsmen in anime. Now, I decided to do another one similar to that. My top 5 gun wielders in anime. Given how so much destruction and carnage has been done by so many characters with guns, gunslingers can be some of the deadliest characters in all of anime. A lot of that can be due to how much they either love to kill or just how well they use a gun in the first place. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Snipe (My Hero Academia):

Starting us off at number 5 is cowboy looking hero, Snipe. Having the "Homing" quirk, this allows him to control any bullets he fires. And he's used this in numerous occasions such as when the League Of Villains attacked U.A or when he was training the students there. Along with being a teacher at U.A, he's also a kind person who's great in a fight, and a hero who's very caring for everyone and the students there too.

4. Hawkeye (Fullmetal Alchemist):

Next up is the lieutenant from Fullmetal Alchemist, Riza Hawkeye. In a world where a lot of characters use alchemy for combat, some characters use more grounded means to fight. Such as Hawkeye who's a expert marksman with training from the military. This was shown in instances like the Ishvalan Civil War where she was forced to kills tons of Ishvalans or other times like when she was helping Mustang with the Homunculi and using her sniping skills to hit Gluttony.

3. Spike (Cowboy Bebop):

At number 3 is the cool space cowboy bounty hunter himself, Spike Spiegel. While some might see Spike as a lazy smoker, he's had years of training as a gun wielder when he was once part of the Red Dragon Syndicate. This has helped him considerably when he left the syndicate to become a bounty hunter. Not just to hunt down bounties, but to also get revenge on Vicious when he barged into the syndicate's headquarters by himself to destroy it once and for all. He managed to use nothing but his pistol and a few grenades to take down the whole syndicate and eventually kill Vicious.

2. Revy (Black Lagoon):

Coming in close to number 1 is the Two Hands of the Lagoon company, Revy. While a lot of these other gun users may be kind at heart with a gun and fight to protect others, Revy is essentially a walking tank who will shoot and swear to anyone who gets in her way. It doesn't matter who or what you are, if you're the target of this mercenary, you'll be filled with bullets with nothing stopping her. The only other thing she'll give you is a swear-filled insult just to rub salt in the wound. But, for all the sadistic comments she'll give, what keeps her from being a hateable character is her commitment to the team and her general awesomeness. Along with an absolutely amazing voice performance from Maryke Hendrikse.

And my number 1 favourite gun wielder in anime is... Vash (Trigun):

And finally at number 1 is the humanoid typhoon himself, Vash The Stampede. I just finished watching all of Trigun yesterday and I can say that I had a great time. It was such a fun show. I mean, yeah, it's a lot more sad and depressing than I originally thought it would, but there's a lot of super fun moments. And the biggest example of this is the main character, Vash. And he's by far the most different gun user in all of anime. That being because he never uses a gun to kill people. He always makes sure that no one ever dies due to a promise he made to his friend. While this makes it harder for him in a fight due to having to make sure he never kills anyone, he still has an advantage with being super acrobatic and having excellent marksmanship allowing him to disarm whoever he wants with his trademark gun. While his regular gun is already super cool, he's also got another one literally in his left arm. So all this makes him really hard to beat. Plus, his generally fun personality makes him fun to watch no matter what he's doing. And he's really funny in an action scene or not. There's also the huge energy canon in his right arm called the Angel Arm that's so powerful it could either destroy a while city or blow a hole in the moon. And all that is why Vash is my favourite gun wielder in anime. And so, everyone, thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Star Wars: Rebels TV Show Review

So, I know this review's kinda late, but I was having a bit of a hard time writing this. A few weeks ago, I did a review for the Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV show in preparation for the new season of the Mandalorian. And, I said I wanted to do the same with Star Wars: Rebels too. Given how the second season for The Mandalorian will be out in two days, I wanted to watch these shows and give my thoughts on it. And, about a month ago, I finally finished Rebels. I was sorta going in this with different expectations because a lot of people were saying they liked it, some say they thought it was somewhat disappointing and some say they just really didn't like it at all. So, I started the show not knowing what to think exactly. I mean, I had seen clips on YouTube and I knew the basic plot of a group of rebels trying to fight against the Empire and I knew all the characters by their names and other small things like that but that's it. And, in the end, this series was really mixed for me. For a lot of reasons. There were a lot I liked and a lot I really didn't like. But unlike the Clone Wars that had a few things I didn't like and I really like a lot of the rest, this show's problems were in the whole thing and I really didn't have fun with some things that I'll talk about. And, yes, like my Clone Wars review, I'm gonna do each season and give my thoughts about as much as I can as I go. Okay, so the story is set between Revenge Of The Sith and A New Hope where a boy named Ezra is on a planet called Lothal. But, one day, while on the run from the Empire, he bumps into a group of rebels on a ship called the Ghost. The crew consists of a Jedi named Kanan, a pilot named Hera, a Mandalorian named Sabine, a sharpshooter named Zeb and a droid named Chopper. And, after helping them with an encounter with the Empire, Ezra decides to go with them and learn more about the Force seeing how he's Force-Sensitive. So now the six of them are off exploring the galaxy while trying to build the rebellion. So, like I said, there are a lot here I did like and some I didn't. I suppose I'll go over what I didn't like so much first. Firstly, the characters themselves can kinda take a while to get used to. Once you settle into them, they become really likeable, but the first two seasons in particular didn't do them very well, especially Ezra. I was under the impression that I was really gonna like this character when I started, but I found it a while before I could really get to like him because a lot of the time, he would made a lot of really bad choices and make some situations even worse with wanting to take things into his own hands. Not just him, but the same kinda goes for Zeb too. I thought the exact same thing about him. It took a while to warm up to him to because he was always kinda complaining about Ezra and the two of them didn't get along a lot. But, like Ezra, I did end up liking him more as it kept going. But, probably the main character I didn't like at all for almost the entire series was Chopper. He's an astromech like R2, but a lot of the time he was really annoying by doing something really stupid or just annoying the other crew members and being kinda selfish in a few episodes. There are some moments when he shines and he does get some nice moments, but, overall, he's probably the main character I liked the least. And, again, there are some episodes in this that I thought were a bit more boring than others like in the Clone Wars. But, with that out of the way, let's get into the series itself and go through my proper thoughts on it. So, the main focus of the series is about the crew just trying to attack the Empire and try to inspire others who might want to stand up with them and fight against it. And we see them do a lot of different things to do that like how they might highjack one of their machines like an AT-AT, or infiltrating their facilities. But, in first season, some of my favourite moments came when they did things like going to a Jedi temple on Lothal where Ezra and Kanan speak to Yoda through the Force and Ezra even gets his own Kyber Crystal to make his own lightsaber or when they try to infiltrate another imperial prison but end up fighting an Inquisitor.

I loved episodes like that because, not only were we going through a fun story, but the characters were shown doing a lot of cool things and the first season had a lot of moments like that. The last episode of Season 1 had a lot of that in particular. But then, it was made even better when at the very end of the last episode of Season 1, we see Ahsoka. Like in my Clone Wars review, I said I love Ahsoka and I loved seeing her again in this series. Not only is she much older now with being an adult in this series, but she's a lot more mature and it's great to see her sharing knowledge with the crew. Especially Ezra and Kanan. And she becomes an integral character for the rest of the next season. The first episode of the second season has a lot of amazing moments. At the end of the last season, we see Vader arriving and attempting to fight them himself. And, like I just said, the first two episodes of Season 2 has a lot of great moments like when Ezra and Kanan fight Vader.

But then this leads to a fight in space where Vader attacks the rebel fleet on his own and Ahsoka begins to sense who he is.

And I liked how Ahsoka is sorta trying to deny the fact that it's Anakin because she's not too sure about it anyway. But then, in the very next episode, she sends Ezra, Kanan, Sabine and Zeb to find someone who ends up being Rex. I was so excited to see this because, not only are we seeing Rex again, who, like Ahsoka, is a character I absolutely love from The Clone Wars, but it's made even better when he joins up with them to help in whatever way he can.

The series also brings back Hondo from the Clone Wars who was this pirate character. He was sort of a weird character because sometimes he would be the Jedi's side and sometimes he wouldn't. And here, yeah, he's still just as selfish as he was then, but he's really funny too with always trying to cover up whenever he tries to steal something for himself. Though a lot of these episodes don't feel that important. I mean, they definitely do have moments that are important in parts. Like, they might have some moments that impact the rest of the story, but a lot of these feel like small adventures that the crew go on. But, there are some episodes like that that have more significance than others. One of the biggest is when we meet Hera's dad who Hera doesn't really get along with very well, but they eventually team up and we see him later on in the series. There are though some odd choices in the show that start with this season like there's an episode where Chopper finds a droid called AP-5 who was abandoned and he eventually gets him to join the crew as well and he begins to help them. But what's weird is that he kinda goes in and out of the show. What I mean is sometimes AP-5 will be gone from an episode and then reappear in another and it's never explained what happened in the episodes where he's gone. He's not even in the very last episode of the whole show. Somehow he's just gone and never mentioned. I don't get that because he sometimes plays a but role in some episodes and in others, it's like he's never been around. So I found that strange. However, this seasons ends with the two parter, "Twilight Of The Apprentice." This two parter is amazing. There's so much about this season finale that I loved. It starts with Ahsoka asking Ezra and Kanan to come with her to some place and it turns out to be some Sith temple. They go there trying to investigate something and they find Maul there. That was pretty cool and he tricks Ezra into thinking he's a good guy and tries to make him his apprentice. They manage to go into the temple but then Maul begins to fight Kanan and Ahsoka and manages to blind Kanan. This whole sequence as they're making their way up to the temple is such a blast because it kinda looks like Maul's good even though we know he's obviously not, but it's cool to see him fight along side Ezra, Kanan and Ahsoka. They all team up against some Inquisitors. But then, the best part of the whole thing and one of the best in the entire show is when Vader arrives and we get an amazing action scene between Ahsoka and Vader.

The whole thing with Ahsoka finding out about Anakin being Vader is cool too, though it is super tragic. And what Ezra managed to get from the temple was a Sith holocron. I loved just about everything to do with these last two episodes of this season. And then there's a lot more stuff in Season 3. It's a lot of the same as what happened in the last season with some episodes being integral to the story and others feeling a bit like filler. But, the first few episodes have a lot of great moments like when Maul captures the crew of the Ghost and Ezra and Kanan have to help. Mainly because Maul is trying to find Obi-Wan and he believes getting Ezra's help with getting the holocrons open can lead him to him. And he almost does until Kanan stops him. But the first big main thing that happens in this season is when we're introduced to Grand Admiral Thrawn. This guy is essentially the primary antagonist for the rest of the show. And we get a lot of episodes with him trying to capture the rebels and kill the crew. He reminds me a lot of Viggo from Dragons: Race To The Edge. This super smart and cunning villain who can outthink his opponents. But then, the following episode is really good when we see Maul meeting up with Ezra again and this time, he's trying to get him to go to Dathomir to use the Night Sisters' magick to locate Obi-Wan, which he eventually does. Not only that, but, on Dathomir, they also find the Darksaber, which Sabine then begins to use, which is really cool. Speaking of, we're also shown more about Sabine here. We learn more about her past about how she's kind of an outcast from her family and ran away when she was at a Mandalorian academy. We're then shown her family when she goes to them with Ezra and Kanan. She goes to help but is still treated as an outcast to her family. But she's able to make it better with them after she saves them from a Mandalorian traitor, Gar Saxon. But then she's absent for a while because she agrees to stay with her family for a bit. Then, towards the end of the season, the third last episode is about Ezra going to Tatooine because he knows that that's where Obi-Wan is and he believes that he can help with the fight against the Empire. But Maul has also gone there to kill Obi-Wan. So Ezra gets there first and Obi-Wan convinces him that he doesn't need to come and then Maul appears.

But then this season ends with "Zero Hour." Which is a nonstop crazy action packed two parter. And a really awesome one at that. It opens with Thrawn discovering that agent Callus, one of the people working for the empire, is actually a rebel spy and has been helping the rebels from the inside. So he captures him and then discovers the location of the rebels base and the empire then begins to launch an attack on them. And all the characters get a lot of moments to do things here like Ezra going to get Sabine and her family to help and Kanan asking Bendu, a force sensitive creature from that planet, to help too. And one of the rebel leaders makes a sacrifice by smashing his ship into a Star Destroyer. And Rex gets to lead an attack too. Seeing him fighting is always awesome and I'm always sorta on the edge of my seat whenever he's fighting because I'm always concerned that he's gonna die considering how much I like him. But what really helps is when Bendu sorta transforms into a thundercloud and attacks Thrawn and the empire with lightning. That was cool. But then, the fourth season, the final one, is where so much stuff goes down and it's awesome. The first two episodes are centred around Ezra and Kanan helping Sabine with business on Mandalore. They help her free her dad and even discover a weapon that Sabine built years ago that could disintegrate anyone inside Mandalorian armour. This episode gets really brutal for a kid's show because we literally watch some characters get disintegrated into dust here. But it's done really well and I was really liking this. Especially at the end of the second episode where Sabine gives the Darksaber to Bo-Katan, who's in this series again returning from the Clone Wars. Though, some of these episodes do sometimes show the characters being kinda unlikeable like Saw Gurrera. We see him return earlier in the series, but he returns in this season too. And he does some really questionable things. Even though they try to justify what he's doing, he still does really unlikeable things like betraying Ezra and Sabine while on a mission. Even though they kind clear it up, he does still try to do these things and I was just kinda left wondering why they had him do it. But the biggest twist in the show is in episode 10 of this season where Hera gets captured and tortured. So Ezra, Kanan and Sabine go to save her. They do manage to, but then, Kanan sacrifices himself to save them from a huge explosion.

Even though I knew it was coming from hearing about it and seeing it before, it was still pretty tragic to see him die, especially since he and Hera confess their feelings right before that. And then the next episode is about them all mourning his death. That is until Ezra begins to see this wolf that seems to be in touch with the Force and he believes that it's Kanan. There's also a Jedi temple hidden there and the empire is trying to find, but Ezra and Sabine manage to gain entry to it and it's some sorta other dimension with these portals all around it. He even manages to use one that shows when Ahsoka was fighting Vader and manages to save her by pulling her out of it.

Not only that, but Ezra also believes he can save Kanan but Ahsoka tells him that if he does, he'll end up killing himself and the rest. So that part is pretty tragic with watching Kanan die again. And then Sidious begins to use his powers to try to attack them.

But then the series officially ends with "Family Reunion - And Farewell." All the rebels are on Lothal at this point and now they're planning to liberate Lothal from the empire. So they make a plan to infiltrate their facility. They do manage to until one of the empire's assassins destroys the plan and Thrawn decides to attack the people of Lothal unless Ezra surrenders himself. This entire entire ending of the series is a total blast from start to finish with almost everyone from the series helping out and getting some really great moment. But, when Ezra does surrender, he's brought to a hologram of Palpatine who sorta tries to get him to submit by tricking him with a vision of his parents who he's been looking for for the whole series until it was revealed that they died. And somehow Palpatine manages to make himself look normal in the hologram somehow. But it's cool anyway and it's made even cooler when he fights back and goes after Thrawn and we get a really unexpected ending. As the others are fighting the empire and trying to destroy the base, Ezra faces off against Thrawn in his ship and even summons the Purrgil, which are like these giant space whale-like creatures.

Yeah, it's pretty surprising when it looks like Ezra actually sacrifices himself. But then they look at a video he left for them and we get a great montage scene where it shows what the characters do afterwards. Especially after the war ends.

So, yeah, a lot is revealed in that montage. And it's cool that Sabine is the one who tells it. So, yeah, overall this series was a huge blast for me to watch. It's not perfect at all, but I had a fun time with it. Again, there are problems with it and there are some characters that I don't really like in it, but I was really happy to watch this. And everything on the technical side of it is great too. The voice cast is still amazing, the animation, the storytelling, everything like that. Though, there is definitely a huge difference in the animation compared to the Clone Wars and that's that everything is thinner in this series. For some reason, everything is very thinned down compared to the Clone Wars. And I mean everything, the characters, the lightsabers, the designs, everything. I don't know why, but that's just the style this series has. And it's very noticeable with characters like Vader who's suit and helmet in particular are very thin. But that doesn't make it bad. It can be pretty cool at points, though I do prefer the Clone Wars' style more. But it doesn't bring the show down any bit because of it. And, really, I'm just glad I was able to watch the whole series from beginning to end and get behind what everyone was saying about it for so long. Same with the Clone Wars too. There may have been problems with this show, but some of this might be some of my favourite Star Wars material ever. I would definitely say you should check this out if you're a Star Wars fan. And, really, I'm super glad I was able to get both of these shows watched and reviewed before the new Mandalorian season in a couple of days. And so, everyone, that's my review of Star Wars: Rebels. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My top 5 healers in anime

So, the last of these special ability users in anime finishes with this. My top 5 healers in anime. Having a healing ability is definably one of more handier abilities to have in an anime. Or, really, just in general. Given how not only can these characters heal themselves, but it's also a huge advantage to their allies. It's probably not used as much as the other three I've done entries about, but it's still a really handy power to have. And the amount of power they have with it can be either big or small given how some can't heal huge injuries and some can. And so, let's begin and I hope you all like this.

5. Recovery Girl (My Hero Academia):

Starting us off at number 5 is the nurse at U.A High, the healing hero, Recovery Girl. This old nurse's quirk allows her to heal anyone by just kissing them. She's done it tons of times, especially to Deku whenever he got injured from his uses of One For All. The only problem was she said she probably wouldn't be able to do it for him that often if he kept overusing it. But she's still done a great job with the other students and she's not only a great healer, but also great at other uses at the school like during the students' exam where she was like an observer.

4. Elizabeth (The Seven Deadly Sins):

Up next is the reincarnation of the goddess, Elizabeth. While all the reincarnations of Elizabeth have all had the same powers, we only find that out through her. While she has a long of offensive powers too, she's more well-known for her healing powers. We first saw her do it when she healed Meliodas after the battle with Hendrickson, but, afterwards, she learned how to do it whenever she wanted and did the healing for all the Sins on their adventures.

3. Wendy (Fairy Tail):

At number 3 is the Sky Dragon Slayer, Wendy. Along with having the Sky Dragon Slayer magic, Wendy also has access to healing magic. Whether or not this is part of her Dragon Slayer magic is kinda questionable, but it's more than likely that she learned it separately from that. And her powers are a bit more unique than some of these others because not only can she heal others from injuries, but she can also heal them from poisons or even Natsu from his motion sickness. Temporarily at least. I can only imagine this power being more powerful when she uses her Dragon Force power.

2. Dende (Dragon Ball):

Coming in close to number 1 is the Namekian who later became the guardian of the Earth, Dende. After Gohan, Krillin and Bulma arrived on Namek to get their Dragon Balls, Gohan and Krillin first met him when Frieza was about to kill him. And, after they saved him from Frieza, they became friends and Dende became a healer for the entirety of the Frieza Saga. Not only could he heal minor injuries for the characters, but even heal them when they sustained near-death injuries like Vegeta and Krillin. He was so good with this that Frieza immediately killed him after he reached his final form to make sure he couldn't save anyone else. And he continued healing everyone after he became the new guardian of the Earth.

And my number 1 favourite healer in anime is... Tsunade (Naruto):

And finally at number 1 is the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade. Now, while her healing powers may not be as powerful as some of these other ones, her reputation as a healer is very well known. She learned healing Ninjutsu when she was in the Leaf Village and has used it considerably over a long period of time. She's even used it to try to make herself look younger. But she's also helped a lot of people with it too. She's so powerful with it that Orochimaru went to find her to heal his arms seeing how Kabuto wasn't as powerful with it as she is. Speaking of, Tsunade's not the only healer in Naruto. She later went on to teach it to Sakura and Shizune. And there's others as well like the previously mentioned Kabuto and Ino as well. But Tsunade is the true master at it. She's used it to save a lot of lives too and done it a lot too like saving Choji after the Sasuke Retrieval Mission, saving Genma and Raidou after the Sound Ninja Four attacked them and possibly being the one to heal Naruto after the fight with Sasuke as well. And all that is why Tsunade is my favourite healer in anime. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 healers in anime. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.
