I really like zashiki-warashi. For one, I have an interest in yokai in general but I’m also a coward so a cute little Yokai that will play a few pranks then bring me good luck is going to rank really high in my book. I have also noticed that I tend to really like all…
What an ending! Not just in content, I’ll get to that, but in visual conception. The scene of Edward sitting at an off-white baby grand in the middle of a green garden with workers in the background was already great by itself. The snippet was fantastic. It had some wonderful colours and an absolutely bonkers…
Welcome back to our Mars Red review. I have to admit, it took me a minute to get my bearings on this episode but once I was all caught up, it worked out well. But before we jump into it, how are you this week Karandi? Busy as usual but otherwise fine. All things considered…
This was another tough episode to choose a title for. This time I was really torn between two options. Dreams obviously, which I ended up choosing but also Brothers. Fushi seems to be slowly building a family and I like that. It’s a good quest. I guess the whole save the world thing is ok…
So is Naruto a Kitsune? I’m really not sure how to qualify him. If he is then let’s pretend I put him at number 1. Naruto’s nine-tailed demon fox introduced me to the concept of Kitsune in a rather skewed way but since they have become one of my favourite Yokai. In any case, let’s…
Titles: SERVAMP -サーヴァンプ- Genre: Supernatural, action, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: Brain’s Base What’s a Servamp you ask? Well, dear readers, a servamp is a servant-vampire. Yup, not kidding. That’s a silly name you think? I must say you are putting it more politely than I would. Servamps are indeed very silly creatures. As Mahiru is…
Titles: Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch 2nd Season, Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch Second Season Genre: Psychological thriller, action, drama, mecha Episodes: 25 Studio: Sunrise Lelouch may have lost the battle, but he has not yet lost the war. Even though he seems to have lost everything: the black knights, his connections, the element of…
I just finished up writing my To Your Eternity post and I figured why not start the outline for Mars Red as well to help out Karandi a bit. 34 more words Mars Red Episode 7 Review — 100 Word Anime
In retrospect, this was probably my favourite arc of Pretty Boy Detective Club. At least so far. I’m having the inverse reaction that most people are having, as the show gets increasingly more abstract and really more like a piece of performative art rather than an actual story, I’m liking it more and more. I…
We are already past the halfway mark of a really good season of anime. I think Demon Lord is my least favourite and I don’t hate it. Everything else has been at minimum enjoyable. And Shadows House is pretty high on that list. I was honestly a bit sad when I found out last week…
Oh great I get a Krem episode… Let’s start with something a bit easier, how are you Karandi? Feeling better? Getting there. And honestly, my reaction was the same as yours when I realised this was going to be a Krem episode, though apparently a little Krem goes a long way. I actually thought this…
Mu one word naming scheme sort of came back to bite me with this week’s To Your Eternity. There were so many great options. Enemy was an early contender, as was Flora, Alphabet, Wisdom and Promise. That last one needs some excplanation. Although he didn’t do it in so many wrods, Fushi did promise to…
Titles: Deca-Dence Genre: Science Fiction, action, adventure, dystopia Episodes: 12 Studio: NUT Natsume is going to be a Power. She’s going to learn how to fight and protect everyone inside Deca-Dence from those huge monster-like creatures called Gadoll. It doesn’t matter that she lost her arm as a child. It doesn’t matter that she’s grown…
I think it’s safe to say that my blog is not a very serious blog. That’s a cultivated image in fact. I have never tried to make I Drink and Watch Anime any sort of rigorous academic environment. Just reading that sentence is kind of ridiculous. Still, once in a while, I will broach subjects…
Titles: Battle Doll Angelic Layer; Kidou Tenshi Angelic Layer Genre: Drama, action, sports(?), school Episodes: 26 Studio: BONES Misaki Suzuhara is discovering a lot of new things. She’s in Tokyo for the first time for one. Ever since her mother left for work 6 years ago, she’s had to rely on others and now, her…
