The original Sherlock Holmes canon is made up of 56 short stories and 4 novels. James Moriarty appears in only two of those stories. 2 out of 60 and he’s not overly present in those either. And yet, when we think of Sherlock Holmes we immediately think of Moriarty. That’s quite the impact!
I just love Maomao’s over-the-top dislike of Jinshi. I think I’ll use her shivers of disgust as a header gif whenever possible and build up a little collection of them. It’s going to be great.
If nothing else, this season of Spy x Family has blessed me with some wonderful Yor gifs. And really that would be more than enough. But there are also some great episodes! Like this one. I am enjoying this arc a whole lot!
I made wayyyy to many assumptions last week. But can you blame me? Dr. Stone can be edited in a very tricky way. I understand that sometimes the jump from manga to animation does make it a bit difficult to follow those very action packed scenes where a lot is going on and lately that’s…
So it’s not just a two-part episode, it’s a three-parter! That caught me by surprise. Since I have all this extra time, sure I must have guessed who the culprit is, right? Well yes, of course I have… And I might not tell you the right one in this post because I don’t want to…
I’m so glad the anime introduced a lot more people to the Apothecary Diaries. I remember that I never had much luck getting people to read the manga before the show was even announced but now those same folks are eager to talk about it with me and it makes my day. It’s a story…
I love when Yor goes feral. I’m not sure what it says about me but all my favourite scenes are ones where Yor is in assassin/ mama bear mode. and all of them usually involve Anya somehow. Because if there’s one thing Yor does very very well, it’s take care of the little ones she…
There are so many good dads in Dr. Stone. I mean most shows don’t really feature parents at all but in Dr. Stone, whenever you see someone’s dad, they kind of rock. I do think they did Siyuz’s mom dirty, though. From the show, you would think she was an absentee parent or part of…
Wow the season is really flying by! Also, yay! It’s another 2 part episode. I really do like to have a bit of a pause before we get the reveal. A lot of the Ron Kamonohashi cases are a bit out there and you won’t necessarily be able to figure it out from the clues…
I just saw that the Apothecary Diaries is slated for 24 episodes and I’m a little stoked, I won’t lie. I did have some trouble adapting to the…adaptation… but now I really look forward to every new episode and the fact that I will get to see so many of them makes me pretty happy!
Oh my, the plot is thickening quite nicely is it not? It’s like a fine gravy by now. I am really enjoying this arc and I think Spy x Family should have more of these multi-episode storylines as they handle them quite well!
You know what they say: The best defense is a good offense… I’m not quite sure who says that. Seems like a very aggressive stance. I mean you sort of have to be on the offense at all times to really make it work and that seems exhausting to me. I would be a very…
Ok, it’s back. The more I thought about it, the more I liked the last episode of Ron Kamonohashi in retrospect and now I just plain liked this episode as it aired. It was the slightly subversive mix of irreverently goofy and earnest that I have come to really appreciate about the show and I’m…
You have to pay attention! I must say watching the adaptation does have the added bonus that I’m picking up on little details that I might not have in a cold viewing. That’s what I’m choosing to call watching an anime without any knowledge of the source material. Essentially what I do 90% of the…
I’m currently reading the latest volume of Spy x Family and it’s fantastic. It’s a flashback to Loid’s childhood. I’m not sure we’ll get that far in this season but I still can’t wait to see it animated. If I had to guess, I would say that I am going to cry! I’m a crybaby,…
