I have to give it to To Your Eternity, even after 32 episodes, it can still surprise me. Just when I think I know where it’s going with something it veers in a completely different direction. For example, at the end of the last episode, we were told the citizens of Renril would find out…
Musashi and Kojirou have been friends since they were kids. More than friends, brothers really. After Musashi lost his own family, Kojirou’s father took him in and raise them both to become kind, upstanding, and brave young men who will protect those in need. But life isn’t that easy. Kojirou’s father is gone now. Kojirou…
Life happens when you’re not paying attention. Especially when you’re in high school. As far as Shigeo is concerned (Mob to his friends), everything is just moving along as it should be. School is fine, he’s getting along with his friends and brother really well, he has fun with the body improvement club and the…
I love carbs. This doesn’t make me special. A lot of people love carbs. Carbs are great! And one of the best carbs out there is freshly baked bread. I’m not talking about that weird white sliced sponge thing that’s been in your cupboard for 3 weeks now, I’m talking straight out of the oven,…
I’m still having so much fun with this show. It’s hard to describe the appeal to someone who isn’t watching it. Play it cool guys is the most about-nothing show I have ever seen. For instance, in this entire episode, one of the characters bought a cardigan and then showed it to another one of…
We saw Dostoyevsky for about 3 seconds in this episode so I’m taking that as an excuse to avatar cosplay as him this week. Natsume Soseki was just way too difficult to pull off with my available options. It seems that next week’s episode will bring us back to the present so I’ll have some…
Archery looks like fun, doesn’t it? Not necessarily competitions. That seems a bit too stressful for my tastes. Especially when your performance can let your entire team down. But just shooting at a target looks like tons of fun. I’ve done it a few times in my life and always enjoyed it. I can totally…
Fushi’s battle plan is coming into focus and it’s an ambitious one. An overly ambitious one. If I know this show at all, I’m thinking that Fushi trying to defend an entire city this size all by himself and stubbornly refusing help is most likely going to end in disaster. Hopefully, he’ll come to his…
Do you know the expression Big Fish in a Small Bowl? It means that a person is considered particularly talented in some way but is also compared to a very small group of other people making it easier to stand out. Ashito Aoi is a big fish in a small bowl. He’s the star of…
I bet a lot of you slept on The Little Lies We All Tell and now that title has you curious. What could an anime called The Little Lies We All Tell be about? What mysteries and intrigues are held prisoner in those episodes? Should I tell you? That seems too easy. Ok, how about…
Nice guys finish last. Ok, maybe nice isn’t the right term here but you know what I mean. You spend your entire life fighting for all of humanity against countless foes. You give it your all, blood sweat and tears. Mostly blood, a lot of it! You stand tall against demons, devils and monsters so…
Play it Cool, Guys is halfway through already. I’m quite happy that it turned out to be a 24-episode season. For a while there it was unannounced. I feel like that guys are just hitting their stride and I look forward to what Igarashi will bring to the dynamic!
This week I tried to make Fukuzawa. I hope I can find a new character to make next week. I don’t think I can pull off Natsume. His look is very specific. This season of Bungo Stray Dogs really started out with a bang! Last week’s season premiere was an especially strong episode on just…
An odd thing happens when I watch Tsurune. I simultaneously think to myself, what a calm, quiet little show. It sure is breezy for a Sports anime but then before I know it, the closing credits are rolling over the image. Where did the time go? How did it fly by when almost nothing happened?…
It’s the start of a new anime season and I’m all excited. I’m always excited when the new season starts even though I wait until most shows are done airing before starting them since I’m too impatient for weekly watches. Well, there are a lot of shows from last season I am really looking forward…
