I have said in the past that I like Christmas a lot but I’m not crazy about Christmas episodes. Not sure why. They just rarely end up entertaining me. But this one, it really snuck up on me there. Airing it in November was a nice touch too. So how do I feel about Christmas…

Way Too Long My Top 5 Anime Directors post
Editing Irina here: I have to admit this post got a bit away from me. instead of a simple list of anime directors I happen to like it turned into this little diatribe about the role of directors in anime production and now it’s way too long. Still I did enjoy writing it so I’m…
All Out!! – The Elusive Rugby Anime
Genre: Sports!, comedy, school, drama Episodes: 25 Studio: Madhouse; TMS Entertainment Gyon is a short king who’s tired of getting pushed around by the big boys. Actually, no one pushes him around, it’s all in his head. But can you blame him? After a lifetime of getting teased by and roughhousing with his…
Fire Force Episode 17 – Fated Encounter – Gallery
I really strayed from my format last week. I’m not sure anyone read it but it was one of my favourite posts. And I’m happy this episode didn’t just immediately prove me wrong by going with completely different visuals. In fact it stayed right on track. I’m a little proud. If you want to know…
My Hero Academia s4 ep68 – I Want to Be Strong
I’ve never spoken about this before but did you guys know that Crow is the one that adds in all the links in these posts? Even when I’m the one hosting, Crow just goes through my paragraphs and adds all the relevant links without ever being asked and without ever even mentioning anything. He just…
Psycho Pass s3 ep4 – Election
These opening paragraphs are always the hardest part for me. Once you get into the review you can weave your thoughts through a recap of the episode and everything falls into place. Here, I have to come up with something all on my own. It’s a little intimidating. Thankfully, I can always count on my…
Dr. Stone Episode 20 – Sweet and Fluffy
Right now Dr. Stone is sneaking up on me. I know that I enjoy the show, I consistently have fun watching it and when an episode ends I start looking forward to the next. And yet, it’s as if I suffer from some weird form of anime amnesia (animesia?) and every Friday I’m yet again…
The Way of The Househusband – Manga Hype!
I know I don’t usually (ever) do manga reviews. However I recently got a batch in (Bungo Stray Dogs, Noragami and the latest Natsume!) so I wanted to share. I mostly picked up manga of shows I wanted another season of, but nothing was announced. Like a little manga tantrum. You don’t wanna tell me…
The Legend of Black Heaven and The Power of Midlife Crisis
Genre : Science Fiction, music, wish fulfillment, parody Episodes: 13 Studio: AIC, A.P.P.P. Oji, I mean Gabriel, is not having fun! One minute he was a lean mean rock god at the night if his glory and then he blinked and it was all gone. Now he’s just another middle-aged salary man shlub working…
Fire Force Episode 16 – The Impossible Dream – Gallery
Fire Force is on a real roll if you ask me. It’s been really good for a while and this week…well if you want to read all my thoughts on it, you can do so over on 100 Word Anime, I would really appreciate it. In the meantime though, feel free to appreciate some of…
Review of My Hero Academia s4 ep67 – Disarming the Bomb and Twisting Fate —
Hi everyone! Irina (from I Drink and Watch Anime) and I are back to review My Hero Academia season 4’s episode “Fighting Fate.” How was your week, Irina? Was it as cold in Canada as it was here in Ohio? We’re having temperatures more typical of January! It’s coldish but nowhere near January temperatures. The… via…
Psycho Pass s3 ep3 – Tensions Flare
Another week, another brand-new episode of Psycho Pass. I’m going to hold back and be all mysterious and stuff. Because that’s how I do. I definitely don’t blurt out exactly how I feel about a show in the very first line of every post and then there’s no point in reading the rest. Nuh-huh. No…
Dr. Stone Episode 19 – Tsukasa the Beloved
On Fridays I watch Dr. Stone and Fire Force so this Friday was just chalk full of Fire and Fury! I’m not sure if it’s a weird combo. I feel like not that many people are watching both of these even if they do have a lot of elements in common. I went off on…
Top 5 Anime to Watch When You Have a Cold
You may think that Canada is the land of maple syrup and apologies but it’s not. Well it is, sorry. However, it’s also the land of colds! At the very least Quebec is. The constant humidity mixed with some of the fastest and most radical temperature variations year round means that if you go anywhere…
