This is kind of a pretentious title for my weekly post on The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window. To be honest, I really could just have titles every single post “daddy issues” but I figured it would get boring. This is very much a daddy issues the anime sort of series. But I figured I…
My 5 Least Favourite Anime Tropes
Normally I’m a person that really likes anime tropes. I find them comforting and it makes me feel like I’m really watching anime when I come across them. That last sentence is nonsense. Sheesh, you would think I’m being paid by the word! I’m not. I’m not being paid at all! Just to make it…
Apples to Saiyans – Comparing Anime
I originally wrote this for 100 word anime Anime bloggers, as people who watch and talk about anime a lot we naturally have a tendency to compare series to each other. I see it all the time, especially in comments or Twitter. But is there any point to it? Considering all the variables in an…

Blank Canvas – Manga First Impression
This particular story has a bit of a tragedy attached to it. I was warmly recommended Blank Canvas on Twitter and I picked it up without much more than a glance at the summary. When I got it, I found out that it was from the author of Princess Jellyfish and it opened up a…

Amaim Warrior at the Border Episode 10: A Return To Arms — Mechanical Anime Reviews
Hi Irina! I’m confused about the weather right now because its supposed to be winter and yet…I don’t know what is happening half the time. The Pacific Northwest is such a weird place where it can be cold one day and then warmer and rainy the next. Or in the same day. That’s just how […]…
Visual Prison ep.10 – Sleeping Beauty
Cards on the table, this was probably my least favourite episode of Visual Prison and unsurprisingly, it was also the most dramatic one. This said, I both understand and appreciate what the show is doing here and I bet next week or by the finale, I will be very happy that this episode happened. It’s…
Platinum End ep 10- She’s an Angel!
Now that I think of it, one of the problems Platinum End may be having is the need to stretch out to 24 episodes. Maybe all the events in the anime are in fact in the manga, and they might be amazing there, but I find myself frequently wishing the plot would get on with…
The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window ep10- Gone Fishin’

Hello again one and all. Some of you faithful readers may already know this, but I don’t really follow the three-episode rule.

My One Bad Experience with a Guest Poster
When you’ve had a blog for a while, you’ll eventually start to get some business offers. Requests for sponsored posts, press releases or offers for paid guest posts. Sometimes they pay you. Hmmm…. As some of you may know, I do accept guests posts. Generally, I let other bloggers who are interested in using my…
