Louise is a very interesting archetype I think. She’s the type who is bound to get underestimated a lot and is using that very fact to her advantage. But she’s written not only so that the other characters don’t see her coming, but I think they’re trying to trick us, the audience into underestimating her…
We’re already halfway through the second season of the Devil is a Part-Timer s2. Crazy right? I can’t say nothing has happened, in fact, a whole lot has happened but somehow it also feels like the season just started. Maybe it’s because we had such a drastic change of scenery since last week that it…
I was watching a very popular summer of 2022 anime when I suddenly started thinking about psychics in anime. And more precisely, I started thinking that for some weird reason, all the anime I have watched that heavily feature psychic characters, I have really enjoyed. I am discovering new niche anime preferences every day! Let’s…
Titles: Space☆Dandy Genre: Comedy, science fiction, action, comedy again! Episodes: 13 + 13 Studio: bones Space Dandy is a Dandy guy…in Space. That joke made me laugh every single time so you can imagine what type of review you are in for. Or can you??? Space Dandy is a “fearless” “intrepid” alien hunter who tracks…
Before I start here I think it’s only fair to let you all know what you’re in for. So get ready for a deluge of disclaimers and trigger warnings, I guess. I’m about to get really whiny about problems that are so first-world they don’t actually qualify as problems anymore. Most of you probably have…
Titles: Yozakura Shijuusou, Quartet of Cherry Blossoms in the Night Genre: Action, supernatural, urban fantasy, yokai Episodes: 12 Studio: Nomad There will come a time when we put aside our differences and humans will co-exist peacefully with demons. Or a least, that’s the dream. And to make that dream come true, Hime, an ancient dragon…
A little while ago, there was something of a mini Yuri goldrush. A lot of new Yuri manga were being released in a short period of time and it really got me excited about reading some girls’ love again. I ordered a bunch of titles at the time and Hello Melancholic was part of the…
know it’s only August but I started looking into what my blog’s Halloween lineup should be like this year. It does take a while to watch a bunch of spooky anime and unlike last year, I don’t have anything at all lined up. Shadows House would have been a perfect Halloween review don’t you think?…
This might be the toughest post to put together yet. I’m really not sure how I’m going to go about it… Tell me, does this count as a beach episode? It seems more like the beginning of a beach arc. In the same way, I’m always a little cautious when production suddenly adds an adorable…
Lately, I found myself really enjoying a number of manga that are not exactly well rated in aggregators. Hence the underrated statement in my title. I actually talked about Mama Akuma in a separate list post (I’m not sure if it will be published before this but if it is, I’ll try to remember to…
A little while ago, I wrote an odd little post that was exploring the relationship between Moe and Fujoshi. If you are interested, you can read it HERE. And what I found out through the comments is that a lot of my readers weren’t all that familiar with the term Fujoshi so I thought I…
As I write this It’s festival time again in Montreal. For me, that means my yearly pilgrimage to Fantasia for films and friends. The festival may have traded the intoxicating (and likely intoxicated) crowds and atmosphere for a more professional event where movies don’t start n hour late… I’m not sure which I like best……
Titles: Maoujou de Oyasumi, MaouYasu Genre: Comedy, Slice of…Sleep?, Fantasy Episodes: 12 Studio: Doga Kobo A long time ago, the kingdom of men struck a deal with the realm of demons and a blissful peace spread upon the land. A peace that remained undisturbed until one particularly spiteful demon lord decided that the time of…
I’m going to put the cover of this manga right under this paragraph. Isn’t it cute? I think it’s adorable! And there’s just something about people riding on brooms while wearing business suits that works for me. I can’t explain it, but I like it. Corporate witch should be a more frequent archetype.
This week we had Shadows in shadows. And you might think that’s a bit of a shortsighted visual choice. It’s bound to make things very hard to see. But I thought it really worked. You’ll see it in my screencaps. Sure it did make it though to see the details of the scene but that’s…
