Before some of you jump at me, I’m not saying that anything I’m about to discuss is fact or even true. I simply read a thesis that put forth a couple of theories about the rise of anime popularity and how to interpret that in a social context which I thought was interesting. It was…
If you’ve watched enough anime (or pretty much any historical anime), you’ve most likely encountered the name Shinsengumi. They were a pivotal group in Japanese history and as such remain a popular subject of fiction and cultural fascination. But do you actually know who the Shinsengumi were?
Unlike the real world, elders in anime aren’t weak. Especially in shonen anime, old people are often as strong, if not stronger than our protagonist. Honing their skills for ages, makes them masters in their field.“Beware of old men in a profession where young men die.” Article is written by Ganiming (https://ganiming.com), an anime and…
Akino is a concierge at the prestigious Hokkyoku department store where the customers are not just kings, they’re gods! And Akino is really proud of her job. She has wanted to be a concierge at Hokkyoku for as long as she can remember. She loves the pace. Because no matter how you feel when you…
Yaay! ZOM 100 is back! I wonder what the production issues they were having are. I wasn’t able to find out if they actually solved them or if we might have to deal with delayed episodes all season. Man, I sound privileged! Deal with delayed episodes… I’m happy the show is back. I think it’s…
The Masterful Cat Is Depressed Again Today is a really good show for the end of the week I find. Because it’s just so relaxing and undemanding. You can sit back after getting home and put an episode on like it was nothing. And that’s more of an accomplishment than you might think!
When it comes to anime, there’s a vast range of genres to explore, each having a unique and captivating experience. Among these, Chibi anime stands out for its irresistibly cute art style. Chibi, derived from the Japanese word “small” or “short,” shows characters with big heads and tiny bodies, giving them an adorable and cartoony…
We are getting close to the point in the story where I stopped reading the manga. I stopped because the season started and I wanted to discover it in the anime. And also because the next volume is coming out in November. I mean in English. It’s obviously already come out in Japanese or else…
There is no ZOM 100 this week, so how about an extra series review 😉 Hime is adorable, isn’t she? She might be the cutest girl you’ve ever seen. She’s always smiling, always nice, and super friendly with everyone. She’s pretty much perfect. And let me tell you, it’s exhausting pretending to be such a…
I started playing Baldur’s Gaye 3 yesterday and let’s just say I relate to Sako a lot today. I’m a useless slug of a human who can barely function and is just thinking about getting back to my game. I think I might have said this after every single episode, but I wish I had…
Architect A is not an architect, he is a handyman. A pretty good one. He’s skilled at a variety of things and enjoys helping people so it’s easy for him to enjoy every day. He can always go out with his dog Hayo and find something to do. But one day, an old woman comes…
You know what a show about superpowered people who sometimes turn into kitty people but mostly not, underground organizations, widespread political plots, and modern reimaginings of classic literature figures, was missing? Exactly! Vampires obviously! Man, I love this show!
I’m going to repeat myself for the new readers in the audience so bear with me if you have heard this before. I have read ZOM 100 in manga form. Not all of it but quite a bit and certainly everything that has been adapted so far. That’s why the title: Flight Attendant of the…
YAY!!! Like I mentioned last week, I was looking forward to the idol show at the aquarium. And I was not disappointed. I’m not sure why the idea thrills me so much but if an idol show was to be put on in an aquarium anywhere east of Saskatchewan, I would be there! I would…
Let me tell you guys a little story. Yeah, it’s going to be one of those posts… I don’t know if I have talked about this on here but I’m not great with kids. I don’t dislike them at all but I’m not the type that will start fawning over children just because they’re children….
