If you spend enough time on the internet you would have, at some point, stumbled across cute anime characters streaming video games. At first glance, they are pretty confusing as most people were unsure if they were AI-controlled robots or just complex animations. But, behind the virtual avatars, VTubers are people just like you and…
I Suck At Recommending Anime
I don’t really like recommending anime. If you have read a lot of my posts, you probably know this already. What anime should I watch is a question that sends unpleasant chills down my spine every time. You would think that a person who spends as much time as I do reviewing anime would have…
Tsurune 2 Episode 12 -Small Victories
I had to look it up after the end of the episode but there is one more left this season. This episode really felt like a finale to me. And a good one at that. It gave me all the emotional closure I needed and even a few of the good old competition jitters. I…
Bungo Stray Dogs 4 ep. 49 – A Mediocre Man
Oh man, oh man, oh man!!!! There’s only one episode left to this season of Bungo Stray Dogs but obviously way more than one episode’s worth of story. Right!?! And if they wait as long as they usually do between seasons, it’s going to be infuriating, isn’t it? Because things are just getting good! And…
Play It Cool, Guys – episode 23
This was the penultimate episode of Play it Cool, Guys! The season is winding down already. A show like this ggives you very little sense of time. At least for me. Both characters and action just kind of lazily meanders and a late season episode can very well be swapped with one of the first…
I Tried Snacks from Sugoi Mart
If there’s one thing I learned recently, it’s that I’m not special… Don’t worry, I’m not going through a depression, it’s an inside joke that some of you may get. In any case, in line with how not special I am, I really like snacks! As such, when Sugoi Mart offered to send me a…
Finding Balance
I have been posting on this blog every day for over 5 years now. Pretty impressive right?? Huh, huh!!! Ok, it’s no great accomplishment but it was something that kept me grounded and I was a bit proud of my perseverance. I’m sure long-time readers have noticed that I have gone on an extended reposting…
Tsurune 2 Episode 11 -Round 1
Nationals have finally started and all the teams made it to the tournament. Well, probably not ALL the teams but all the teams we care about, right? I actually had a great week of anime. All the shows I watched had great episodes, Tsurune included. But I noticed that I took way more screencaps of…
Bungo Stray Dogs 4 ep. 48 – A Closed Room
What, they’re just not going to tell us what happened to Yosano? Like that’s in any way o.k? I’m just supposed to sit here and let the story go on not knowing what happened? This is a rhetorical question, you don’t have to answer that. And despite all of that, this was a fun episode,…
Play It Cool, Guys – episode 22
This show is not getting easier to write about. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing… unless you are trying to post about it. Then it’s a very bad thing. Otherwise, still a great show 🙂
To Your Eternity 2 ep. 20- Dreams
You know what, I’m just going to lay it all out right here. My reaction to the season 2 finale of To Your Eternity was a simple one: F it, I liked it! And now you are going to find out why!
Top 10 +3 Anime Intros
I love a good OP. It’s not necessary but I think when obvious time and effort has been put into creating an interesting opening sequence, it’s a good sign that the creators care about their audience and love their work. When done right, these little creations are small works of art in and of themselves…
Tergiversating Pan de Peace
Genre: Slice of life, comedy, foodservice Episodes: 13 Studio: Asahi Production Basking in the glories of her energetic teenage metabolism, Minami has resolved to eat all the bread and nothing but all the bread forever. Apparently this is what all the cool kids are doing because she soons finds herself surrounded by a posse of…
Classroom Of The Elite Season 2 Review & Reaction : This Season Could Do So Much Better!
Indeed, it’s a pretty decent stopping point, if we didn’t have another season, I feel pretty satisfied with this ending similar to a light novel ending and it’s not so bad in the end. I know there have been quite a few detractors who have been up in arms since that fanservice episode, I think…
I know nothing of Japanese class structure
I like to think of myself as not entirely uncultured but there is always going to be a bit of a culture clash when I watch anime. I think that’s true for a lot of western viewers. The social reality we live in as well as the history, traditions and beliefs we grew up with…
