Top 5 Anime That Were a Waste of a Great Premise

Posted on January 18, 2019January 5, 2019 by Irina

It’s happened to all of us. The heartbreaking experience. You read the synopsis for a show that’s about to air and you think to yourself: “OMG this sounds AMAZING, I can’t wait to watch it!” and then *sad horn music* One way or another, the series manages to completely squander and amazing idea and/or universe. You…

Anime Winter 2019 – Week 1 Roundup!

Posted on January 12, 2019January 12, 2019 by Irina

Hello All! You might have to bear with me a bit here. This is the first time I’m putting together this type of roundup post and there may be a lot of kinks to work out. Basically, what I’m trying to do is to create a type of repertoire where you can find the various…

Top Five Voice Actresses in My Harem

Posted on January 11, 2019January 1, 2019 by Irina

I’ve been promising this post for a while now. I did a voice actor version some time ago and it was one of my favourite lists to put together. I think you guys enjoyed it too. As we all know, an actor’s performance can really drag down an anime. There’s something heartbreaking about a painfully…

Stat of The Year!

Posted on January 9, 2019January 9, 2019 by Irina

I know you’ve all been waiting impatiently for this! Once again, it’s time to parse through my very favorite stat of them all! For those of you that have been following this blog for a while, or my twitter account, you now that I have a rather marked obsession with the search terms people are…

Top 5 Animes I’ve Grown to Appreciate

Posted on January 4, 2019January 4, 2019 by Irina

Let’s start off 2019 with something positive. I’m not too proud to admit that my first impressions can occasionally be a bit, harsh. Not wrong mind you, just possibly fail to take certain things into account. And so, I do occasionally change my mind about shows after a little time has gone by. In this…

Top 5 Otaku Resolutions

Posted on December 28, 2018December 23, 2018 by Irina

I don’t really make new year’s resolutions, I just pick up things as they come along. I do really like the general idea though. There’s something commendable about a society choosing to make self-improvement into a celebrated tradition. It’s sweet if a little silly. I mean you don’t have to wait until January 1st… What…

Top 5 Christmas Gifts I would Want if I Existed in an Anime

Posted on December 21, 2018December 16, 2018 by Irina

Ok…I see it now…my lists are super weird and contrived. Top lists are supposed to be one of the most basic and easily accessible types of posts you can create, yet I find myself having to explain my list concept on a fairly regular basis. I’m pretty sure I took a wrong turn somewhere. Good…

Top 5 Anime Christmas and Movies (12 days)

Posted on December 14, 2018December 9, 2018 by Irina

I have this weird thing. Just the one! I love Christmas. Celebrating capitalism is a big thing for us commi refugees. But I rarely if ever like Christmas specials (or New Years when it comes to anime). As far as I’m concerned, it’s all about those Halloween specials. I really wish there were more in…

Top 5 Reasons to Keep Blogging

Posted on December 7, 2018November 25, 2018 by Irina

You know, we all go through those rough patches. Those periods when we actively ask ourselves, why are we doing this? Blogging is one of those hobbies that’s fun but is also suspiciously like work. I mean some people do actually do this professionally. There aren’t that many people that are receptionists just for fun……

My Top 5 Animes with Great Animation

Posted on November 30, 2018November 28, 2018 by Irina

I promised myself I would take some time to admire anime on technical merits and then promptly forgot all about it. It’s not that I don’t want to. I just started watching these really fun and endearing shows (Gurren Lagann and Cells at Work), that slowly develop characters by giving them benevolent but challenging foils…

Top 5 Badly Rated Anime Which I Loved

Posted on November 23, 2018November 21, 2018 by Irina

If there’s one thing this blogging journey has taught me, is that I’m weirder than I thought. I’m definitely not the “average” MAL user. Not only am I a completely different demographic in almost every respect, but I find the ratings baffling. I don’t often agree with them, even though they’re normalized over thousands of…

Top 5 Anime Where Names Play a Role

Posted on November 16, 2018November 16, 2018 by Irina

Those of you who are regulars on this blog… Oh my… There are people who regularly read my posts… that’s still a little though to wrap my mind around. Sorry I’m back! As I was saying, those of you who’ve read a few of my posts may remember that I have an odd interest in…

Top 5 Things to Know Before You Start an Anime Blog

Posted on November 9, 2018November 4, 2018 by Irina

It probably won’t surprise you to hear that I’m one of those people. You know the type. The people who look at ingredient lists and nutritional values on the back of packages at the grocery store. Wanna know calories by types of booze? I can tell ya! I’m not proud of this but I sort of have…

Top 5 Good Characters in Bad Animes

Posted on November 2, 2018October 4, 2018 by Irina

Ok so both “good” and “bad” are obviously arbitrary here. I went with my gut! However, as far as I’m concerned, these characters deserved better than the shows they got saddled with. Characters with deep compelling personalities or at least for the potential for it, stuck in lousy narrative where they will languish unappreciated forevermore……

5 Last Minute Cheap and Easy Anime Halloween Costumes

Posted on October 26, 2018October 23, 2018 by Irina

We all know how it is… You love Halloween but you’re also not prepared and possibly a little lazy. I sure know I am. So here we are, just a few days away, and you still don’t have a costume. How many times have we been there? You would love to flaunt your otaku side…
