I did a sort of mental adjustment when it comes to Fire Force. I go into more detail in my review over on 100 Word Anime. I think the thing that has helped my viewing experience the most is actively and wilfully ignoring certain elements. Normally I wouldn’t really bother with a series that I…
I occasionally get asked where I get my post inspiration from. So let me give you an example:
It hasn’t always been the smoothest ride but as the finish line becomes visible, I can’t say I’m not glad I stuck it out on the Granbelm journey. To know what I’m talking about, you can read my episode review over on 100 Word Anime. But part of the fun is also that Granbelm has…
Hmm..well…where do I start here. Oh I know! Hi Crow, how are you today? I hope you had a good week. Mine was a bit exhausting but the weekend is looking pretty great (I actually have very little to do and plan to plop down on the couch and play video games for the…

I’m not sure when I started having this fascination with colours. It’s not like I wear any. But at some point, I started to really notice them in all things and particularly in cinema and anime. I do know that I’ve been fascinated with tropes since I was small. I would see archetypes come up…
Genre : Supernatural, drama, psychological, Length: 32 minutes Studio: ufotable You know how life is. A bit like a large sea of boredom punctuated by seconds of intense terror. It’s also a bit like love, a mish mash of uncertainty and worry interrupted by moments of utter bliss. The trick is simply in finding those…
My thoughts meander a lot on this show. It’s difficult to pin down. There are elements I love so much that occasionally they blind me to other stuff. I try to explain this a lot better in this week’s episode review over on 100 Word Anime. It doesn’t apply to the visuals though. There’s not…
I think I have never changed my mind about a series as often as I have about Granbelm. It’s been a wild ride indeed. To find out where I stand at the moment, feel free to go read my episode review over on 100 Word Anime. One this I can say here is that this…
I might as well warn you right off the bat, this is going to be one of those posts. A little weird, a little personal. I hope you still like it. “Strong” was never really a word that applied to me in any way growing up. I was, and still am, rather smaller than average…
Karandi and I don’t often agree on anime, so when we do, you know it’s special! Heck we even disagree on this week’s episode of Given. Not the big picture but the details vary. Want to see what I’m talking about, you can check out our review on 100 Word Anime. Given has solid but…

****For those that don’t know, scanslations are scanned copies of comics (usually manga) which have been translated and photoshopped with the translation by fans. They are unofficial but not necessarily illegal**** Copyright is a pretty hot issue right now. It has been for some years of course. I know that popular opinion is against me…
Genre : Isekai, Slice of Life, Comedy, Short Episodes : 24 Studio: Sunrise Do you have a favourite neighbourhood restaurant? A little comfy place that feels more like a friend’s house than a business. A friend that charges you for food but also has the yummiest dishes in the worlds and a lovely assortment of…
Man, I’m slow sometimes. (No comments, thank you!) I have been watching anime for years, multiple years, and only recently did I notice the windchimes. I saw them a lot in Kakuriyo: Bed and Breakfast for Spirits, then more recently in Yotsurio Biyori. When there was a quick scene of one in Cinderella 9, I…
