My Hero Academia s4 ep86- A Gentle Victory

Posted on March 23, 2020 by Irina

Hello everyone. I hope you’re all keeping healthy and safe! These are strange times and we could all use a little sunshine in our lives. At work we’ve been lucky enough to be able to mobilize rather quickly and get the majority of people set up to work from home, and I’ve been diligently self-isolating…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 11 – Things Are Looking Grim

Posted on March 21, 2020March 20, 2020 by Irina

I thought about writing Grimm instead of Grim but then realized it was a pretty weak pun and probably no one would get it except me. Besides I make so many typos that most people would probably just assume it was one of them. If you’re new here, welcome to my blog! It’s super duper…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 10 – When You Name Something It’s Yours

Posted on March 14, 2020March 13, 2020 by Irina

It’s a little more involved than that. You can’t just go to your friends house, tell then their playstation is now named George and then take it home. Naming something is about more than just the name itself. The name has to be recognized for one. And when you’re naming a living being then the…

My Hero Academia s4 ep84- The Show Must Go On

Posted on March 9, 2020 by Irina

You know how it’s smart post writing to sort of keep the punchline of your post until the latter half? Or you know, until at least the second paragraph so people can’t just know your entire thoughts from the little snippets in search engines or in reader and have to click on your actual post…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 9 – Sugar Shack

Posted on March 7, 2020March 6, 2020 by Irina

Do you know how to tell if someone’s Canadian? Wait 5 minutes and they’ll tell you! Or maybe that’s just me? Anyways, I’m Canadian so when the episode started on what was clearly a fantasy parallel for the maple syrup industry, I got super excited. Cause I’m Canadian you see. Also I love maple syrup…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 8 – Golems are Liars

Posted on February 29, 2020February 28, 2020 by Irina

I’m not sure what to say about this week’s Somali and the Forest Spirit. That’s a great way to start a post isn’t it… I watched it last night, I remeber what happened, it’s not like I forgot the episode, but I just haven’t really formed any thoughts about it yet. It was one of…

My Hero Academia s4 ep82- With Due Elegance

Posted on February 24, 2020February 23, 2020 by Irina

It’s cold right now in Montreal and people are freaking out. As if there was anything special about February in Montreal being cold… We do that every single year. Montrealers that is. Every year we get surprised that Canada gets cold in the winter and there’s snow. And in the summer we’re whining about how…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 7 – Return to Magic

Posted on February 22, 2020February 21, 2020 by Irina

One thins that I really have to give Somali and the Forest Spirit is that it’s really beautiful. At the very least, I think so. And I have since the first episode. That means a lot to me. And a land of witches and magic is the perfect setting to exploit the strengths of such…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 6 – Birds of a Feather

Posted on February 15, 2020February 14, 2020 by Irina

Somali made a second friend it seems. I think Kikila was a better influence. General rule of thumb, when in doubt, pick the friend that hasn’t seriously tried to kill you. Maybe that’s just me.

My Hero Academia s4 ep80- A Mild Cheese

Posted on February 10, 2020February 9, 2020 by Irina

We got somewhat buried in snow over the last few days. Actually, it’s not that impressive. It’s really a perfectly average amount of snow for February in Quebec and far from the huge snow storm they’ve been promising. In fact, it’s been sort of light on snow this year. In any case, it’s now a…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 5 – Desperate Times

Posted on February 8, 2020February 7, 2020 by Irina

I see what Somali and The Forest Spirit is trying to do with this arc. At least I think I see it. But in my opinion there’s a fatal flaw in the plan. But I’ll get to that in just a minute!

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 4 – A Kind Lie

Posted on February 1, 2020January 30, 2020 by Irina

With every passing week, Somali and the Forest Spirit is reminding me more and more of Ghibli with maybe just some traditional Disney sprinkles here and there. And I know we’ve been very disillusioned with Disney (with good reason I might add) but there’s no denying the impact and importance of the studio on the…

My Hero Academia s4 ep78 – Aftermath

Posted on January 27, 2020 by Irina

So how do you follow up an episode like Bright Future? An unenviable task for sure. Last week’s My Hero Academia rocked me and essentially recontextualized the entire season for me. Potentially the entire series. It’s a much harsher and more uncompromising world that greets me this week, but also more empathic. One with real…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 3 – Poisoned Mushroom

Posted on January 25, 2020 by Irina

For some reason, the 1000 word or so episode review I wrote for Somali and the Forrest Spirit on Thursday seems to have vanished, all but the feature image that is. So I now find myself trying to rewrite it on the spot and I can’t say I’m thrilled about it. I liked that review…

Review of My Hero Academia s4 ep77: Consequences and Into That Good Night

Posted on January 20, 2020 by Irina

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…
