Before we get into this week’s episode of the God of Highschool, I have a couple of things to say, First: Happy Labour Day everyone! I hope you are taking full advantage of a lazy Monday! Second, I would like to tell you all about my morning! On Saturday, I edited a bunch of posts…
I’m often out of step with the greater anime community. I’m the dork that’s super excited about the show that’s dead last in popularity in a season or that loves the least popular arc of beloved shows. At least I feel that way. I know a lot of people say the same thing and it’s…
One thing I have noticed now that I pay a minimum of attention to anime-related social media is that anime fans are just not that happy about anime. It seems every season has a show or two that’s picked out to stick in the wicker man and everyone just picks on them. And even when…
This week on Fire Force a character got topless and it wasn’t Tamaki. No seriously! I was going to talk about all these things like how the camera continuously went from overhead shot to a ground-level pan up view with a sharp cut between the two to establish each character’s mindset in the moment but…
Genre : Action, romance, violence, Bottle Royal Episodes: 11 Studio: Nexus Mobile games are turning into a real bane. You think it’s all lighthearted casual fun, free to play easy to install and them before you know it they hit you with the small print. You’re just minding your own business and somehow…
Did you guys know that I’m a sucker for friendship pr0n? ‘Cause I am! a huge one! I’m a bros before… that word that rhymes with bros… and sisters before misters sorta girl! That makes me a prime candidate for shonen trash… For these not too familiar with the term, trash refers to me in…
Guys, I ate too much chocolate. As in I haven’t really eaten anything other than chocolate today and now my tummy hurts…for some reason… Why am I like this? For those of you new here, I am in fact a legally functioning adult. A concept that is as terrifying to me as it is to…
You know if the God of Highschool is going to keep throwing new characters at me and expect me to care about them, they are going to have to slow down a touch and let us get to know each other a bit. You know, share some precious moments. Smell roses, talk about our feelings…
For those of you who don’t know, Quebec has a pretty deep and slightly sorted history with the catholic church. As such, a lot of the regional swear words are directly related to it. Well, the French ones. Our religious and political history is divided along language lines which is pretty interesting. So tabernacle is…
I could be wrong but now that we’re at the halfway point, it seems as if we may finally be getting to the meat of the story for The God of Highschool. I may have missed this but why is the tournament called The God of Highschool. I get the god part and we got ann…
I had to look up exactly what backdraft meant in the context of a fire to be certain it fit the episode. The actual definition is: a phenomenon in which a fire that has consumed all available oxygen suddenly explodes when more oxygen is made available, typically because a door or window has been opened….
So The God of Highschool is a bit all over the place, isn’t it? I mean tonally but also in pacing. I read the corresponding chapters of the manhwa just out of curiosity and technically the tonal and pacing shifts are present in the source (although not identical) but it just works much better in…
I don’t know how it’s been were you guys are but in my neck of the woods we’ve been having thunderstorms all week. Calm discreet little thunderstorms, nothing to get to worked up about. It’s actually been rather pleasant and everything us all lush and green now. I wasn’t actually planning to show off, it…
Spoilers.. like right in this intro there will be spoilers. In order for me to get to the spoiler I’m going to spoil some things so you were warned. What can I say, I like to spoil my readers… ok… bad joke… Admittedly the wedding didn’t happen (see I spoiled not only that the wedding…
This weeks episode was quite reminiscent of a zombie series wasn’t t. In many ways, Fire Force does take on a lot of the classic zombie tropes with only a bit of tweaking. Except for all those deep religious undertones. Those are vampire tropes! It’s actually kind of cool how a modern action anime manages…
