Have you ever heard how hard it is to write concisely? Back in our collaboration review of episode 70, Irina from I Drink and Watch Anime said she wanted to “keep my episode reviews a bit more concise because they were getting way out of control.” Now, one one hand I’d argue that her reviews… via…

I just saw the first episode of Somali and the Forest Spirit when it premiered on Thursday and about 3 seconds in I said to myself, boy, this show sure is pretty! This is the first thing I’ve seen of the winter season so I didn’t know if I would be reviewing it or not…

Bungo Stray Dogs Season 3 is now over. As much as I miss it, I do like the freedom of not having to go home on Friday evenings to watch anime and write a review for the next day. It really does tie up my going out time. Ever since I started doing episodic reviews…
Noooooo, I wasn’t ready yet! I wanted to see more! You can go read what I thought of the actual episode on Karandi’s blog. You know, I realize I never explained that post title.
