When it gets right down to it, there are great and terrible anime in every single genre. I can’t count the amount of times someone tells me they dislike a specific type of anime only to have their next favorite be of that type. But even with a gaping open mind…*ewww why did I have...
It’s time, it’s here, it’s finally come!!!… cause I was too lazy to write this earlier! But now, we can dig into the results of that little project we all did together a few weeks ago and find out how most consider subsidizing blogs. I want to really thank everyone who shared the post in...
No no wait! Don’t unfollow yet!! Hear me out! I know, I know we all hate those uptight people that get their panties in the tightest of bunch at the slightest provocation. I’m not going to say you should love them. I’m not planning on turning this blog into some type of manifesto either. Let’s...
This will come as no surprise to long time readers…. I can’t believe there’s even the possibility of me having long time readers.

OWLS are flying again! How are you all enjoying the 2019 tours so far? They’re great but you wish they had just a bit more Natsume? I hear you, and because I love you guys so much, I got you covered! 2nd Monthly Topic: “Adore” In February, we will be exploring love and romance. The...
Generally speaking I’m a proponent of approaching anime as a self-contained product.
