As much as I am loath to admit it, anime isn’t an objectively superior form of entertainment. It just happens to be MY entertainment of choice (along with video games) and pretty much the only thing I watch unless somebody else makes me watch live action. There have been many tags and general essay posts…
This little show keeps delivering much more than I ever expected of it. Wants to see what Karandi and I thought of it? You should!!! via The Morose Mononokean Season 2 Episode 12 With Irina and Karandi – 100 Word Anime
Well here we are, the penultimate episode of BoogiePop (I’m trying to incorporate the word penultimate more into my vocabulary – I have very reasonable goals) and the seem to be working hard to tear down the one arc I was actually enjoying. But first, how are you Shania? Thanks for asking Irina! In alright…
This is possibly a first for me. This month OWLS chose a topic I was a bit stumped by. Usually I’ll find a way to just prattle on about any given subject with very little difficulty but this one…it was a doozy. Do you like my attempt at burying the lead? As if it’s not…
I feel a little guilty. After the questionable puppet interlude Matt was stuck with last week, we have my favorite episode by fa this week. Then again, Matt and I have pretty different tastes so he may have hated it! I think our opinions of this show have largely lined up week-to-week so it should…
Zwischenzug : An “in between move”, where a player, instead of playing the expected move, first inserts a move which the opponent must answer, before making the expected move.. I finished episode 11 of The Promised Neverland about 12 minutes ago It’s taken me this long to start writing the post because I had to…
Just like there’s been a steep drop off in anime reviews, I’ve notice that the interest in these round up posts has similarly cooled. I’m not blaming you. Obviously not you who are reading this right now, you guys rock extra hard. But even those of you that are gone, I understand! However, this has…
Anime is such a fickle mistress. There you are, innocently going about your life, when Zing Boom! You fall head over heels in love with a new anime. The world is brighter, there are birds singing, wonderous adventures and fascinating characters await you behind the screen just to have all of it ripped away right…
It’s shocking I know, but I m going to babble about colors… Weird huh? Have you guys ever seen those YouTube videos of colorblind folks trying on those glasses that allow them to see colors for the first time and just going nuts with joy? I binge those. They make me cry every time. We…
Genre : Comedy, political intrigue, slice of life, bishonen banquet Episodes: 1 movie Studio: What’s better than a bevy of blonde bishies? It’s a trick question. Nothing is better. The human brain isn’t equipped to handle more joy than what implied by that first sentence. But you know what’s not worse than that? Those same adorable…
It’s still snowing. Yesterday was a pretty nice day. A bit grey but warm and pleasant. Today it’s snowing wet snow and there’s this biting cold wind blowing everything about. Once again, it’s a great day for Mononokean. I’m going to miss this little show after next week. I hope they make more. While we’re…
BoogiePop’s messy release schedule was driving me just a little nuts so I did the most reasonable thing possible and drove Shania a little nuts too. The results! We are almost caught up! Here’s everything that happened before this Friday! There Shall Be Spoilers!
I’m feeling lazy…super duper lazy. It’s takin all my discipline to not just repost last week’s links and see if anyone notices! But you know, as much as I while about doing these each week – it’s like going to the gym. I’m really happy I did it afterwards. And it’s not just because I…
Ahhh work! The Grind…The good Ol Rat Race. For those of you lucky enough to not have joined the job market yet, let me tell you, it has its ups and downs. No matter what, anything you HAVE to do for 8 hours a day, every day, is bound to get on your nerves from…
When it gets right down to it, there are great and terrible anime in every single genre. I can’t count the amount of times someone tells me they dislike a specific type of anime only to have their next favorite be of that type. But even with a gaping open mind…*ewww why did I have…
