Woodpecker Detective’s Office Ep.1 – Guest Starring Mori-San
I was still looking for a show to review on Sundays when surprise, Crunchyroll came out with a late entry. I remembered seeing this series, or rather seeing the cover art for this series and thinking that it looked like the Morose Mononokean so i figured I would give is a try based on that….
Tower of God Ep.3 – Rak the Genius
There’s a novella by Isaac Asimov called Nightfall. It’s about this planet with three suns so one is always shining and then for the first time in remembered history, all three suns set at once and it’s night for the first time ever. I always really loved that concept. What does the night sky mean…
Can A Foreign Fan Ever Enjoy Anime to the Fullest?
Surprisingly, my title is actually a serious question. It just sounds kinds stupid. Not a question I know the answer to but one I have been pondering over for a while now. You should know that by foreign fan here I mean “not Japanese”. Or more precisely not surrounded by and immersed by Japanese culture….
My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! ep 2 with Crow and Irina
Boy that title is a mouthful. I was going to find a spiffy little post title but you know what, there’s enough going on there already. So instead, let’s get right into it. Oh and I made an executive decision to go bold this week even though I’m hosting. Why??? I forgot that host was…
Tower of God Ep.2 – An Alliance of Convenience
Do you ever get lost in a show so much that you actually refuse to believe a full episode has passed when the end credits start rolling. Tower of God has some sensational production values and some really striking visuals but it’s more than that. Something about the story just sucks me in to the…

My Hero Academia s4 ep88- Overwhelming Power
This morning I watched two season finales. I watched the last episode of the currently airing Haikyuu and I was delighted to see a strong ending to what has been an overall very strong season of one of my favourite animes. Haikyuu To the Top has been exceptional so far. Why am I going on…
Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep.13 – The Ballad of Tanaka The Stupid
I already knew that Haikyuu was a split cour. This means I knew that this season finale wouldn’t really bring much closure and was really more of a set up for the second part of the season this summer. They really didn’t have to try all that hard. Haikyuu To The Top has had a…
Tower of God Ep.1 – A Cute Face Will Get You Far
You know how I’m a fake fan and I know nothing about upcoming anime and such. Well you now now. I sort of look up what’s scheduled for the upcoming season only after the first show or two have started airing then get mad that I don’t have the services for all the shows that…
An Appreciation of The Things we Take for Granted in Anime
Art is hard you guys…There’s no real formula to it. No magic set of rules you can follow to produce perfect art every time and yet – it seems very easy to make bad art. As for anime, it’s pure magic. It’s the art of illustration combined with the art of animation layered under the…
