Suzume – The Classic Story of a Girl and Her Chair
I might have whined a bit on this site about how I didn’t get to see Suzume in theaters. Well…I lied…I did! I found one artsy theater that was still showing it in Montreal and even managed to convince a couple of friends to go with me. And check out this poetic turn of events….

Dr. Stone: New World Episode 10 Review
Hello everyone. Welcome back to our Dr. Stone recaps! I have to say, the thing that hit me the most about this particular episode wasn’t anything that happened but rather realizing that this is the penultimate episode of the season.

I hope my gif this week loads on your device. It’s huge! HUUUUGE! I usually make sure to keep the size reasonable when I create them but I just really liked this scene visually and I managed to time the gif just right so that it looks like it loops back into itself. Anyways, I…
