An action-packed anime adaptation based on a popular manga by Ken Wakui: this is anime series that uses a lot of cliches, and at first glance, it would seem like the typical shounen anime. The “time-travel-to-save-his-loved-ones” has been used a lot in manga and anime, but the way the creators used this premise is awesome….

ZOM 100 – Manga First Impression
ZOM 100 was kind of a wild ride but I think that’s exactly what it wanted to be! Ok so on a whim a few months ago I decided to just buy a bunch of volume 1 manga that I didn’t know anything about and figured if I found something I liked I would continue…

The final episode of Mars Red concludes this vampire tale and Irina and I look back on the episode and the series – and also offer some script rewrites. Mars Red Episode 13 – The Curtain Falls on Our Historical Vampires — 100 Word Anime
Shadows House episode 13 – Caesura
Season 1 of Shadows House has come to an end. I think? Was this finale lacking closure for anyone else? I just found it rather anticlimatic and it didn’t really answer any of the questions we had left, did it? I guess I should elaborate a bit more in my post.
The Case Study of Vanitas – Blue Moon Rising
The actual title of episode 1 of The Case Study of Vanitas is In the Event of Rusty Hopes. I mention it because I really love this title. Rusty Hope is such an evocative expression and it’s fun to say. It’s a much better title than my post title, to be honest. Oh, In case…

Well hello everyone! We have a special treat in store for you this season. Well, at least I hope it’s a special treat! Turns out Karandi, Crow and I were all planning on reviewing My Next Life As a Villainess this season so we figured why not combine our powers! This is going to work…

Titles: Marudase Kintaro Genre: Comedy, Ecchi, Yaoi, Ridiculousness Episodes: 1 (10 minutes) Studio: Seven Ok, when I’m saying miniature review, I really mean miniature review. Here it is: Marudase Kintaro is smut and nonsense in a way I liked and a lot of anime fans didn’t like. Also, it’s Yaoi. Very Yaoi.
To Your Eternity ep. 12 – Rebirth
I usually watch To Your Eternity as it airs, which for me means Monday evenings, and I review it right after. That’s just what works best for me, while it’s all fresh in my mind. But we’re Tuesday. I wasn’t feeling up to watching it yesterday. I was tired and I just wanted something happy….
Top 5 Anime Mansions
I really like real estate. I think most people do. That’s why renovation and house flipping shows are so popular. And I also really like anime so real estate in anime is the bomb. Anything from anime shacks to anime mansions really strikes my fancy. Oh man, I would totally watch an anime bout home…

In Search of Anime Discourse
As some of you may know, I don’t know that many anime fans IRL. In fact, despite having a fairly successful and large anime convention every year, Montreal doesn’t really cater to anime fans that much. There is one Manga bookstore in the city and it carries mostly French titles and you can get some…
Dead Dead Demon’s DeDeDeDe Destruction – Manga first impression
So lately I’ve been ordering a lot of manga. I’m in the mood to discover my next big manga love story. I’ve also not been reading as much webcomics. At least not family-friendly ones. As such, I figured I would switch my webtoon recommendations for manga first impressions until I build up a nice stock…
Pretty Boy Detective Club ep12 – Last Dinner
Normally I’m not a fan of clip episodes. It’s one thing if you’re doing one in the middle of a long season as a recap or reminder and it doesn’t count as an official episode but when shows dedicate their finale to reusing scenes. Well, it’s just not very beautiful, now is it? Or that’s…
