In Defence of Anime Comedy

Posted on January 5, 2022September 28, 2021 by Irina

I like comedies. I’m just a person who likes to laugh a lot. That’s why it’s always a bit hurtful to see people disparaging the genre. So today I’m going to defend comedies. Despite it being one of the most popular genres, arguable and arch-genre, that has no need to be defended. I feel useful!

I’ve been collecting manga for a little while now and I do enjoy it a lot. In an effort to branch out and maybe discover something I wouldn’t have otherwise, I asked for manga suggestions on Twitter and got a bunch back. It’s how I discovered Blank Canvas which I really dig. Among the people…

I’m not sure if it was planned from the start but it turns out that AMAIM is going to be a split cour now and we will have to wait until March to see the rest. Now Scott, when you first told me this I thought, ok, that’s fine. A single-season break is not too…

Posted on December 30, 2021September 14, 2021 by Irina

As a general rule I’m not much of a maker of New Year’s resolutions. I really like the idea…for other people. For me, my impatience isn’t going to let me wait until New Year to bring a positive change in my life once I think of it and my completionist streak makes it hard to…

New Year’s is for Lovers – My OTP

Posted on December 29, 2021September 14, 2021 by Irina

Some of you may have picked up on the fact that I’m not much of a romantic. It’s not that I have anything against lurve really but I am just generally bored by romantic storylines and find most of what passes for epic love stories to be frankly very unromantic…. I mean people still think…

Visual Prison ep.12 – Don’t Call it a Comeback!

Posted on December 25, 2021December 25, 2021 by Irina
