Yeah…I’m not good at naming posts. I’ve never had a talent for it and I am so jealous of people who can come up with that perfect title off the tops of their heads like it was no big deal. It’s a very big deal! Unless someone is very familiar with your writing already and…
Hi Guys! How has you December been? Yeah, mine was super busy too! But hey, at least we got it done, right!? I hope you all had wonderful Holidays or at least not completely horrible ones. Next year will be (even) better, I promise. We could all do a Christmas anime marathon together, that’ll be…
To be honest I had to look this up. I remembered a few types of hunters but no particular one really leaped out at me.
Ironically I wrote this post all by myself I didn’t seek any input or ask for advice. Great start, wouldn’t you say. I firmly believe that collaborative posts are a great and rewarding experience that you should all try out at some point. They’re a great way to get to know some of your fellow…
So Christmas just passed, I hoped you got great presents. I know, I know, that’s not what it’s supposed to be about but…I mean…PRESENTS! I got some awesome booty and one of the things I received in late December, **cough UPS cough**, is my October Loot Anime Box. YAY! Man, I am so happy I…

Some of you may have picked up on the fact that I’m not much of a romantic. It’s not that I have anything against lurve really but I am just generally bored by romantic storylines and find most of what passes for epic love stories to be frankly very unromantic…. I mean people still think…
This one took me a while, I was really hesitating between two. You guys know what I do when the rules say I have to pick just one, but I want two – I cheat!
Hi guys, well we’ve finally reached the semi obligatory BEST OF 2017 post! You know, there’s a reason everyone does one of these posts every year – they’re really fun to read. I enjoyed all of yours, that’s for sure. Thing is, I already covered this exact subject in the podcast (which you can listen…
So a couple of days ago I did a post on Japanese Christmas tradition as a thinly veiled excuse to eat nothing but cake for a couple of days. That was a good decision. My adulting skills are on point! Anywho, I mentioned in that post Christmas itself was not exactly the major holiday in…
Genre: Supernatural, fantasy, drama Episodes: 24 Studio: Wit Studio I really liked my synopsis for the OVAs and that’s why I’m reusing most of it here – I’m not just being lazy! Chise is a beloved child, adored by fairies and humans alike, living a life of wonder and merriment while studying magic under the ancient…
I had the toughest time with this one. Every time I chose an arc I would immediately change my mind. It got so bad I almost chose the Chimera ant arc again, since I at least can find reasons to dislike it – it has my saddest scene pick for one.
Of course it’s Natsume… Genre: Slice of Life, supernatural, hug in anime form Episodes: 74 Studio: Brain’s Base (seasons 1-4), Shuka (seasons 5-6) If you’ve been here before you know this story by now. I’ve told it to you 6 times already but how about we let the newcomers in on it as well. Natsume is a…
Aaaahhh Christmas cake. For most of us in the Western world, this means the dense, molasses filled, door stomp like substance also known as fruit cake. No one likes fruit cake. I can already read your comments declaring that you’re actually quite fond of it and that when you make it yourself it’s delicious…I know…
Did 2017 not turn out exactly how you would have liked it to? Maybe you have a regret here and there. Maybe the entire world just went crazy for the past two years but in hindsight you now know what went wrong? Maybe you just lost your keys, but you know you must have had…
