I’m not sure when I started having this fascination with colours. It’s not like I wear any. But at some point, I started to really notice them in all things and particularly in cinema and anime. I do know that I’ve been fascinated with tropes since I was small. I would see archetypes come up…

It’s also a bit like love, a mish mash of uncertainty and worry interrupted by moments of utter bliss. The trick is simply in finding those…
My thoughts meander a lot on this show. It’s difficult to pin down. There are elements I love so much that occasionally they blind me to other stuff. I try to explain this a lot better in this week’s episode review over on 100 Word Anime. It doesn’t apply to the visuals though. There’s not…
Hello friends! Let’s talk about pretty anime boys. Even though I have a clear anime focus on this blog, I’ve made no secret of my appreciation for visual novels, blotomes(TM) and otomes. I have attempted review some with mixed results… When I first discovered the rich world of what is essentially interactive novels, it was…

I might as well warn you right off the bat, this is going to be one of those posts. A little weird, a little personal. I hope you still like it. “Strong” was never really a word that applied to me in any way growing up. I was, and still am, rather smaller than average…
Karandi and I don’t often agree on anime, so when we do, you know it’s special! Heck we even disagree on this week’s episode of Given. Not the big picture but the details vary. Want to see what I’m talking about, you can check out our review on 100 Word Anime. Given has solid but…

Whatever else anime conventions may be, they are a good way to see what industry professionals consider marketable in way of anime. When you read seasonal blogs and chat with your 3 friends, you can fool yourself into thinking something like the Promised Neverland was a smash hit beyond anyone’s expectations. And then find out…

Man, I’m slow sometimes. (No comments, thank you!) I have been watching anime for years, multiple years, and only recently did I notice the windchimes. I saw them a lot in Kakuriyo: Bed and Breakfast for Spirits, then more recently in Yotsurio Biyori. When there was a quick scene of one in Cinderella 9, I…
