I’m sorry guys but it’s going to happen. Sooner or later you’re going to have to go back. It’s not that bad really. There are lots of great things about school. I sure miss it! I would still be there if they would pay me… Ok, that applies to a lot of people. In any…

Why I Think Given is a Better Anime than A Manga — 100 Word Anime
I wrote I post that I liked a lot then Karandi made it so much better! If you have a minute I would love to know your thoughts on it! I feel like a lot of viewers may be sleeping on Given. It’s a surprisingly good character-driven drama. I am enjoying a lot and…

In the Land of Orphans – Where Are The Parents in Anime?
If you’ve watched as much anime as me, you could be tricked into thinking that the only way you’re ever going to live out your real life anime fantasy is by somehow becoming an orphan. Or at least a woefully neglected high school student. It seems that anime is willing to use any old excuse…
Fire Force Episode 6 – Flame Azalea – Gallery
I’ve been rather busy (but happy) over the past few weeks so I am not sure where the general public stands on Fire Force at the moment. You can follow my own thoughts on it over on Karandi’s blog. I have a fun time writing there. I watched the episode before a very long, and…

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Episode 20: Playing House
Guys, have I told you how lucky I am to work with Crow? He is always supporting and incisive. I can count on him and it’s a big deal. For instance, I am way late with this review. I’ve been burning the candle at every possible end and then some, so after I watched Demon…
Given Episode 6 – Tritone – Gallery
For me, Given is well and truly on a roll. I have been living in fear of it getting painful or overly dramatic and it manages to be undeniably painful but in a pleasant way. That doesn’t make much sense, does it. I might explain it a little better in my episode review with Karandi….

Top 5 Anime That Made (Just) Me Think
I’m an odd sort of fellow. My brain latches onto very incongruous things and then just expands on them in ways that don’t always have a logical basis. I will find myself thinking back time and again on series and discovering new little elements to puzzle out. There are movies and shows which are obvious…
How Important Is Relatability in Anime?
I have been reading a lot of anime reviews lately. Usually, I read various reviews around WordPress and get my info from there. However, through researching a few posts (I know!) I managed to go through a large amount of shorter reviews on sites such as MAL and AniList. One very common statement is that characters…
