You know I try to answer tags in a reasonable time frame. I don’t always succeed but I do try. It always means a lot to me to get tagged by one of you, so when both super cool Nairne (I’m a bit intimidated, I admit) and super sweet Ryuji were kind enough to think…
Genre: Romance, comedy, drama, low fantasy Episodes: 10 + OVA Studio: SIGNAL.MD,Inc. If you’re going to be a NEET you should really be an Elite NEET. Not just someone who couldn’t cut it in society, someone who actively chose to take a step back. Elite NEETs are smart, capable people who decided the daily grind…
I guess some of you may have noticed but I have a weakness for tragic characters that can accept their fate gracefully or fight against it until the last second. Once in a very long while, you can find those that do both. One of the most frequent searches on my blog is for the…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political Studio: A-1 Pictures I have to admit it, I did not see this one coming. I have been watching anime for many years now and this particular show for 15 episodes (there was a 11.5, remember!) and this is pretty much the last thing I expected. Brace yourself, guys:…
OK not really but it definitely is making me crave some variety…. I mentioned it in my Monster Girls review but I’ve come to realize how similar anime character body types are. It’s getting a little boring…. I remember when I first watched Miss Kobayashi, I was struck by the fact that the girls had…
It’s Friday! You know what that means! Yeah a whole bunch of really fun stuff but ALSO a Friday Five! I kicked things off last week with a pretty silly list of androgynous girls that have captured my..let’s say heart.. That proved to be popular. Pretty girls are popular, who would’ve thunk it? So popular…
Genre : Drama, adventure, magical girl Episodes: 12 Studio: J.C.Staff Our world is constantly changing. Species go extinct to make room for new iterations. Mutations give rise to devastating predators, while humble herbivores completely destroy ecosystems through enviable reproduction. Evolution is unpredictable and uncaring but also full of wonders. And it’s this capricious faith that has created…
Cactus Matt and I are continuing our joint watch of Uma Musume Pretty Derby and bickering about it. I’m having a lot more fun discussing the show than watching it! In case there’s any doubt Matt is in Bold!
Binging anime vs weekly watching is an eternal debate… Many of my talented fellow bloggers have written great posts about the merits of each type of viewing. Here are a couple that I could find through my increasingly faulty reader app: https://lethargicramblings.wordpress.com/2017/04/15/lethargic-ramble-why-i-dont-watch-seasonal-anime/ https://remyfoolblog.com/2018/01/18/thoughts-on-marathoning-anime-following-seasonal-anime/ https://mechanicalanimereviews.com/2017/08/24/my-issues-with-binge-watching/
Yes, this show again. After writing a longer than usual review for this series, then going off on a tangent about Magical Girls in general, I still never got the chance to talk about my favorite character. I barely mentioned her in fact. That’s kind of weird right? She would probably bite my head off…
Genre : Fantasy, Adventure, action, political, crime drama Studio: A-1 Pictures No joking, no exaggeration, as the first seconds of the episode came onscreen, I honestly said out loud: What? Where? How???
Genre: Science fiction, comedy, smut Playtime: Medium (10 – 30 hours) Developer: Nitro+Chiral Oh Boy, this one is gonna be rough. So Aoba had an epic blue mullet and his hair feels things (it has nerve endings) this isn’t really important at all but I want you to understand what you’re getting yourselves into… He…
I thought I would kick off the Friday Five feature with something light and fluffy and silly. Not to be taken seriously in any way. I have been spoiled by a wealth of absolutely delicious anime characters in my time to the point that I have now splintered my anime harem into a myriad of…
Genre : Slice of Life, comedy, supernatural, awwww Episodes: 12 (+ 1 ova) Studio: A-1 Pictures As a biology major, Tetsuo Takahashi has always had a professional interest in Demi-humans. Their numbers still rather low in common society, there hasn’t been that much reliable research published on the subject and many are still clouded in myths and misconceptions….
You know what’s better than writing posts about anime? Getting someone whose talent you admire to write most of them for you. No one tell Matt he’s being tricked! Somehow, I got Matt to agree to a full season collaboration with me where I get to sit back and feed off his skill and creativity…
