Last week, Crow (crowsworldofanime.com) decided to veer away from our The Good, The Bad and the Ugly format for a more linear conversational post. I think it helped a lot with the flow. I tend to be a little scattered so some form of post structure is very helpful in allowing me to keep my…

Tsurune Episodes 1 & 2 – Slings and Arrows
Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation “Tsurune” is the sound an arrow makes as it leaves the bow. We are told this in the first seconds of the show. I’m not entirely sure this is true or that Tsurune is a real word but if it is, it’s beautiful. The very idea that Japanese has…
Skeleton Bookstore Employee Honda-San – First Impression
This is a momentous occasion! You are reading my first ever requested post. It’s not that I don’t take requests. I am thrilled to imagine that some of you might actually want to read my thoughts on a given show. It’s super flattering. But honestly, no one’s ever asked me before. I have had readers…
The Mystic Archives of Dantalian (Countdown to Halloween)
Genre: Supernatural, Magical Girl, Mystery, Action, Gothicness Episodes: 12 Studio: Gainax A good book is a thing of wonder.

Irina and Crow in Zombieland (Saga) ep4: Zombies in the Hot Springs!
Zombieland Saga is still mystery. Despite my recent disappointments with Angels of Death, Crow is keeping me firmly optimist for the prospects in Zombieland and every episode so far did have at least of authentically fun moment to offer. See what we thought os episode 4 HERE
Dakaichi Episode 4 – Where’s the manservice?
I’ve made no secret that Dakaichi is not exactly my type of show. I just find little interest in romance storylines. However, the incredibly talented Naja recently made me by a BL Visual Novel. By that I mean she wrote this post . See what I’m talking about? She might as well have been holding…
Angels of Death ep 16 – Dafuq
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Full disclosure, it’s Friday evening. I started a new visual novel last night and I just can not wait to finish this post so I can slip on my soft onsie, pour myself a glass of wine, and dive right back into it. That shouldn’t affect…
Parasyte – Aren’t Humans The Worst? (Countdown to Halloween)
Have you noticed that a lot of horror stories go along the same premise: i.e. mankind was the real monster all along. I mean, they’re not wrong but…
Shin Sekai Yori – The Lessons of the Bonobos (Countdown to Halloween)
Genre: Dystopian, horror, science fiction, romance Episodes: 25 Studio: A-1 Pictures It seems pretty clear that humans are destined to muck things up. Whether individually or in large groups, we seemed determined to make every mistake for ourselves before we learn a single thing. And let’s face it, we manage to learn the wrong lessons…
Irina and Crow in Zombieland (Saga) ep3: Guts and Glory
Irina: We are continuing this fun, odd little trip into the genre mashing experiment that is Zombieland Saga. The audience for this show seems rather divided. Crow (crowsworldofanime.com) and I made our first impressions stand pretty clear but let’s see if the enthusiasm keeps up. I generally prefer my cute girl shows to have a…
Countdown to Halloween
Do you guys like Halloween. I do! I like it a lot. This isn’t saying much really. I like pretty much every holiday. I’m a very celebratory sort of person. Give me an excuse to decorate, dress up and eat – and I’m there! If I can sing as well, you’ll never get rid of…
Angels of Death ep 15 – Stairway to Heaven
Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff I have no clue what’s going on here. Not with the episode I mean, with me. Also with the episode… This was a gibberish filled non episode brimming with melodrama. You know, everything I don’t like. Except for gibberish, in the right circumstances it can be…
World Conquest Zvezda Plot -Anime’s Best Kept Secret Organization
Genre: Supernatural, Magical Girl, Comedy, Action Science Fiction Episodes: 12 Studio: A-1 Pictures Kids, don’t run away from home. I understand, your dad may be a hard, unkind man and you would rather avoid becoming like him but try to work it out. It’s not worth risking the dangers waiting for you in the dark…
Haganai Next – What Happened to My Friends?
Genre: Harem, romance, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: AIC Build Making friends can be very tricky for instance you can be in the same club as a group of people for almost an entire year. Having fun, playing games together, doing great activities. And yet, still not have any friends. You would think that Kodaka, Yozora…
