Here we are again. I was feeling pretty good after the last two episodes – both solid outings.
BUT.
This week, it’s just another episode of Fire Force with immense potential….squandered. This may be one of the last episodes I review, as we’ll discuss at the end of the post. But for now, let’s get into this tragedy of an episode.

Fire Force is really picking up here in the second half of the season. I’ve been a huge fan of this Oasis arc – the change of scenery and some newer characters really breathed life back into this show. Let’s go!

New continent, new characters and Fire Force has some new life breathed into it as the overall mysteries deepen. Let’s go!

Ensembles. Everyone loves Ensembles! When your main characters are feeling stale, bring back some likable side characters, amp up the enemy difficulty, make some convenient plan using all your powers combined – profit. Oh, and did I mention, change up the scenery with a trip? This is basically Fire Force’s plan for the rest of the season.

One day, and I hope one day soon, Fire Force will decide whether or not it’s a great anime. Unfortunately, that day is not this week, as “Groping Through The Fire” (pretty sure that’s on purpose), showcases this mixed bag of a series to the fullest extent.

New characters! Who doesn’t love new characters – and a high school student as well! Actually, how old is the rest of the 8th supposed to be? 20s, right? Anyways, let’s meet our newest antihero and her short lived gang!
We’re back with some hot bois, girls, and demons for another season of Fire Force! So strap in, turn your brainpower down, and enjoy some nice pyrotechnics and spotty plot as we try to uncover the mystery of people randomly combusting!
The excuses for my tardiness from my other post are that I’ve been away travelling and a bit sick – but no matter, because Fire Force is getting a SUPER post! What’s a super post?! It’s both episodes 23 and 24 (which Fire Force unsportingly released at once over Christmas) AND the overall series review. Can one single post handle such heat? We’ll find out!

Welcome to a battle of two families: Vulcan vs Lisa and Shinra vs Sho. These two episodes pair nicely and feature quality fights befitting of a late season shounen. While not big on emotional payoff, Fire Force delivers clues as to the world’s mystery…and a nice hair cut!

Episodes 19 and 20 of Fire Force are a tale of Two Anime. One is a fan-service filled mess, with uneven gags mixed in among mismatched action sequences. The other is an epic, and I mean EPIC, Fire Sniper Duel. Okay, so Episode 20 wasn’t actually all that bad, but it sounded more dramatic when I said it that way. In case you need more convincing…how often do you get to see a cute little nun straight up merc someone with a pipe?
