Kirishima is a name that is both known and feared in Japon’s underworld. The first lieutenant of the Sakuragi Yakuza Family has well earned his nickname of The Demon of Sakuragi. He might not be great at remembering names or faces or running simple errands, but if you need someone to keep your rivals in…
This week I watched Play It Cool, Guys right after a particularly intense episode of To Your Eternity and let me tell you this show is an amazing palette cleanser. Even if you’re not watching it now, if in the future you watch a really emotionally draining series and you need a little anime just…
First the Forgers, now the Phonys, do you think anyone is ever going to get intrigued by these family names? I was going to say that at least Forger seems like a real name but I decided to look it up first. I used LinkedIn and there are a ton of Forgers on there, it’s…
It turns out the official title of this episode is “Betrayed”. I swear I had already picked my post title when I saw it. It’s just that this episode was very specific and there’s little else you could call it. Except for maybe “Luck”. Buckle in, this episode was quite a ride!
Guys, remind me to not read the manga first I’m also going to do episode reviews of a show. I guess that’s the wrong way around. By the time I decide to do episode reviews, it will be too late. You know what, I,m sure you’ll figure it out. I’m counting on you!
It’s really hard to stand out as an idol group these days, There are just so many talented young idols out there. You probably haven’t even heard of 99% of them. and that’s ok. I,m not saying this to make you feel bad. It’s perfectly normal. Like I said, there are so many talented idols…
Warp is a blonde boy with a hole in his belly, a hole in his memories, and maybe even a hole in his heart. He just doesn’t know who he is anymore or what he wants other than getting his memories back, maybe. And in a world where both bodies and experiences can be bought…
This isn’t going to be one of those posts. You know, to the point and informative! Pffth, anyone can enjoy reading one of those posts! No, no, this post is more of a challenge for the intrepid reader. It’s winy and confusing, even potentially pointless. It’s a Journey!
Have I mentioned how much of a challenge writing episode reviews for Play it Cool, Guys, is? It’s an enjoyable challenge that I look forward to each week, but a challenge nevertheless. Not only is this a show where almost nothing happens but it’s also a short program, so almost nothing happens for a brief…
Oh me oh my. This is a whole different type of trouble now. We haven’t quite seen this type of conflict in Spy x Family before. Normally, I would say no one stands a chance against Yor but this…. it’s just not the kind of battle Yor is used to fighting. She’s not trained for…
Well, they’re just rewriting all the rules in To Your Eternity all of a sudden. I’m not against it. It’s certainly ambitious to introduce so many paradigm-shifting ideas in the span of two episodes but it can be invigorating. This said it can also turn out to be a disaster if they don’t know how…
I can’t quite explain this. Every week, I watch Chainsaw Man and enjoy it. I think it looks good while I’m watching it. Maybe not my favourite visuals but there is definitely a flair to the production. Then the episode ends and I start sorting through the screencaps that were taken automatically. Without fail, every…
Titles: Kono Oto Tomare!: Sounds of Life, Stop at this Sound! Genre: Music, school, comedy, drama Episodes: 13 + 13 Studio: Platinum Vision I’ve personally never been in a competitive school club that would go to nationals or anything like that. I’ve never had the experience of having all the seniors leave and being all…
Before I stopped eating meat, octopus was probably my favourite. But I gave it up before discovering the joys of Takoyaki so I thought that I would never find out for myself what those delicious-looking little pancake balls taste like. On paper, it sounded like the perfect dish for me but sadly, being both vegetarian…
Hello everyone, I’m back. Some of you may not have known that I was gone at all. Good! That’s how it’s supposed to be. This is what happened:
