I'm much nicer than I seem, we should be friends!

Can A Blog be an Island

Posted on March 11, 2020March 11, 2020 by Irina

That title is a bit unclear. I was trying to resume a complex thought in a few words and I failed. Today I want to think a bit about the practice of bloggers cutting themselves off from the blogging community. First I should say that I have no judgment call about it. I still think…

When Comedy Anime isn’t Quite Comedy

Posted on March 10, 2020March 10, 2020 by Irina

Comedy anime series get the short end of the stick. I think that’s a real shame. Mostly because I’m a huge comedy fan and I defend my own. However, after seeing the recent Crunchyroll award categories I think I might know at least part of the problem: Semantics…

My Hero Academia s4 ep84- The Show Must Go On

Posted on March 9, 2020 by Irina

You know how it’s smart post writing to sort of keep the punchline of your post until the latter half? Or you know, until at least the second paragraph so people can’t just know your entire thoughts from the little snippets in search engines or in reader and have to click on your actual post…

Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep9 – The Manager

Posted on March 8, 2020March 8, 2020 by Irina

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 9 – Sugar Shack

Posted on March 7, 2020March 6, 2020 by Irina

Do you know how to tell if someone’s Canadian? Wait 5 minutes and they’ll tell you! Or maybe that’s just me? Anyways, I’m Canadian so when the episode started on what was clearly a fantasy parallel for the maple syrup industry, I got super excited. Cause I’m Canadian you see. Also I love maple syrup…

The Curious Case of Interspecies reviewers

Posted on March 5, 2020March 5, 2020 by Irina

Just to be straight with all of you, this isn’t going to be a post on Interspecies Reviewers. I have not watched the show. I wanted to but I don’t get FUNimation which it originally started airing on so I gave up. And now I’m no longer sure I want to watch it. And that’s…

I Might Be A Secret Magical Girl

Posted on March 4, 2020February 16, 2020 by Irina

At least I think so… No no wait! Hear me out…I know how this sounds! I really do! But I have reasons for thinking this. Logical ones. And no I didn’t slip on our very icy sidewalks and hit my head hard!

In/Spectre Episodes 7 and 8 Review — Galleries

Posted on March 4, 2020 by Irina

Irina and Karandi are back to discuss our thoughts on episodes 7 and 8 of In/Spectre as the case of Steel Lady Nanase heats up. We’re dealing with a ghost conjured from a collective imagination and it is taking a lot of effort to find a way to defeat it. via In/Spectre Episodes 7 and 8…

The Still Disastrous Life of Saiki K. 2

Posted on March 3, 2020February 29, 2020 by Irina

Genre : Comedy, Slice of Life, Supernatural, Sci Fi Episodes: 24 Studio: J.C.Staff   It’s surprisingly difficult to be average. At least it is when you’re a super powered genius psychic and you just want to blend in and enjoy a nice quiet high school life. Take my word for it, it can actually be a real…

Another boring post about feminism and stuff in the anime community…

Posted on March 2, 2020February 16, 2020 by Irina

I’m gonna level with you. I fell down a rabbit hole of watching dudes who seem super angry about “feminism” and how it’s destroying everything good like video games and anime. I feel a little defensive now. It’s my own fault, no one forced me to watch. And to be fair, I have also been…

Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep8 – Strategy

Posted on March 1, 2020February 29, 2020 by Irina

Sports anime are really fairly simple in structure when it comes down to it. They’re pretty much all underdog young men coming of age stories with sports as a metaphor for personal growth. That’s it. And Haikyuu is no different. It tweaks the formula a bit by giving attention to such a large cast of…
