Only The Audience Remains

Posted on October 6, 2018October 6, 2018 by Irina

There’s an occasional tepid debate that gets revived every so often in the anime community which essentially is: should manga (source material) be taken into consideration when reviewing or even interpreting anime. I (as well as anime, reviewing and blogging authority Karandi) have always been pretty steadfast in insisting that anime adaptations are a stand…

Posted on October 2, 2018December 27, 2018 by Irina

I once tried to convince you all that I’m not just a drunk, but a person fascinated by symbolism and patterns. I actually did mean half of that. And the fact is that since I started putting together drinking games for anime, I have noticed certain elements that seem to come back a lot. Some…

Do You Like Characters Which Are Relatable or Remarkable?

Posted on September 29, 2018September 9, 2018 by Irina

That post title took me forever to come up with. Yes it did!!! I actually gave up and just used the post outline instead. But I tried for a long time before that. Some of you may remember that I generally prefer character driven narratives to plot driven ones. This means I can enjoy shows…

I’ve been wanting to write a post on dere archetypes forever. Since before I started this blog. You may think that’s super passé…o.k. it is sort of outdated.

Posted on September 24, 2018September 22, 2018 by Irina

Posted on September 23, 2018September 22, 2018 by Irina

Genre : Josei, Horror, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Studio: J.C.Staff Well well well…. Isn’t this fun. Angels of Death just managed to disprove most of my assumptions yet leave my base theory intact. I gotta say, we’re on something of a roll here. The last few episodes have been pleasantly ambiguous.
