When I was a kid my favourite poet was Jean Arthur Rimbaud. I still like him a lot. There’s something about French poetry that appeals to me in an ineffable way. It’s a bit savage and the way the language bends and contorts to create so many homophones allows on to play with the rhythm…
I’m writing this on Thursday. This maters because I normally watch Tower of God when it airs and writ my review right after. But I was so exhausted yesterday, that watching anime was too much trouble. Yup, actually watching was more intellectual and emotional involvement than I could muster. Had I known how happy episode…
Lately I’ve been really digging freckles as a design trait in anime characters. Actually scratch that, freckles are adorable and I have always thought they looked amazing. It’s just that lately I have been noticing them more in anime characters and it always makes me happy when I see them. (For instance on the adorable…
Full disclosure, I only recently learned of the existence of the term Tsunshun and what it means. Up until a few weeks ago I had never heard of it at all. But since discovering this personality archetype, it may have become one of my favourites. As such, I want to tell more people about it!

I have always approached life with the idea that I know next to nothing. You see, for me that makes things way more fun. I get to occasionally screw up and not beat myself up about it too bad and when I succeed then it’s a real achievement and I get to celebrate, no matter…
Hello everyone! I hope you’re enjoying the start of the summer. You know what summer means – summer season of anime! But before we get to that, we still need to wrap up spring! And here comes the penultimate episode of My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!
Genre : Comedy, Slice of Life, Mecha?, CGDCT, Short, drama Episodes: 12 Studio: Shin-Ei Animation Null is just your average little girl. And like a lot of little girls she loves her sister if if they don’t always agree. Like when her sister tries to force her to eat that awful “nutritious”…
You know there are a lot of things I like about Woodpecker Detective’s Agency. In fact, I liked last week’s episode quite a lot. But I have come to realize, or much more accurately, I have spontaneously decided, that there are two major issues holding this show back. I’m going to try to explain them…
OK, I looked it up and there are 13 episodes to this season of Tower of God. Good because I’m not ready for it to be over next week. But I’m totally gonna be ready for it to end two weeks from now… For the record, I tried the webtoon again and I still just…
This is a post that first appeared on Bloodthristy Little Beasts as part of a collaboration with Jordanne. However, as Jordanne has recently made her blog private I figured I would repost this top 5 on my blog since I did enjoy writing it I hope you guys enjoy it too. It’s exactly what it…

I chose my headers gif as the opposite of ruining an adaptation. Alarm sound and Fog Horn!!! I don’t know anything about adapting a written work for an audio visual medium. I don’t even know anything about writing fiction in the first place. These are really just my opinions and observations because I thought it…
And these are my general, not necessarily insightful thoughts on the subject. I like Yuri. Ok not really a revelation, I’ve always liked Yuri well enough. In fact, I like it just about as much as any other genre but considerably more than classical romance which is a little confusing. However, I also ended up…
It’s been quite a week! Things are fine for me but that seems selfish considering everything that is going on right now. These are some tough times and I hope you’re all doing o.k. If you can find some sympathy and understanding in yourself for those around you, we need it now more than…
