Anime Review: Gachiakuta

The Outerhaven ·

2025/12/22

I’ve been following this one for a bit, as the premise seemed rather interesting. Gachiakuta is a clever play on the old adage that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, or in this case, power. Of course, it’s a little bit deeper than that. Can the anime world take a unique spin on this [...] The post Anime Review: Gachiakuta first appeared on The Outerhaven.
