To Your Eternity ep. 12 – Rebirth
I usually watch To Your Eternity as it airs, which for me means Monday evenings, and I review it right after. That’s just what works best for me, while it’s all fresh in my mind. But we’re Tuesday. I wasn’t feeling up to watching it yesterday. I was tired and I just wanted something happy….

In Search of Anime Discourse
As some of you may know, I don’t know that many anime fans IRL. In fact, despite having a fairly successful and large anime convention every year, Montreal doesn’t really cater to anime fans that much. There is one Manga bookstore in the city and it carries mostly French titles and you can get some…
Pretty Boy Detective Club ep12 – Last Dinner
Normally I’m not a fan of clip episodes. It’s one thing if you’re doing one in the middle of a long season as a recap or reminder and it doesn’t count as an official episode but when shows dedicate their finale to reusing scenes. Well, it’s just not very beautiful, now is it? Or that’s…

To Your Eternity ep. 11 – Confession

I almost wish the show would pull a completely unjustified genre switcheroo and become a calm rural Slice of Life with some light supernatural elements….
Top 5 Anime Characters with Blue Eyes
I finished watching Jujutsu Kaisen not that long ago and like a lot of people I go a bit taken with Gojou. I love a troll, I always have! This said, Gojou’s most striking physical trait has got to be his very icy blue eyes, which lead me back to my blue eyes Pinterest board…

The Risk of Parody
I like Parodies. I like them a lot. Ok, that’s an easy statement. I like most comedy genres so there’s nothing new here. But in watching Pretty Boy Detective Club, I have been thinking about just how tricky it can be to pull off a good parody. It’s a genre that comes with a whole…
