Of course! Of course, the week after I praise Haikyuu for the surprising (to me) and slightly unusual decision to focus the start of the season so tightly on Hinata and how that has shaped and curved the narrative of season for (for the better in my opinion) rendering it more personal and relatable, the…
Genre : Comedy, drama, spiritual, slice of life, romance, rabbits, magical girl Episodes: 10 Studio: Toei Animation This one is going to be a little different. Maybe you can tell already because I usually reserve this part of my reviews for a series synopsis and instead I’m already editorializing. You see, I just know…
OK, fingers crossed that this post won’t magically evaporate out of my scheduled posts. Or else I will be sad! I just rewrote my Somali review and a could of collabs and I’m getting a little tired. It’s a lot of work for a Saturday morning. I may just have redefined first world problems.
One random tidbit about me and Haikyuu is that throughout the seasons, it’s possibly the show that most consistently has my favourite OPs and EDs. I guess me and Yuki Hayashi have similar tastes. Also, if you have a second, go read his wiki page (it’s the link I included), how he got into music…
This one is staying on this site! Starting next week, you will only see Haikyuu on Sundays as the other two series will be over on Karandi’s blog. I’m sorry, I’m not sure what she has in mind for the scheduling yet . On here I will be reviewing Somali on Saturdays and Haikyuu on…
This is another series I will be reviewing with Karandi over on 100 Word Anime but she wanted to get her solo first impressions out of the way, and my brain can’t accept that I just start at episode 2. The world can’t work that way…
Putting the last two episode together in a single day was pretty sneaky of Fire Force. It affected my watching experience and I do go into it over on 100 Word Anime along with all my thoughts about these last two episodes. One of the side effects of doubling over on episodes though, is that…
I use to write the episode review over on 100 Word Anime (check it out – link right there!), before I wrote the gallery posts, to give Karandi as much time as possible to do any edits if she wanted. But she is very non invasive so it turns out I could have written the…
Genre : Action, comedy, supernatural, urban fantasy, science fiction. Episodes: 12 Studio: Bones Cities are like people. They’re living things with a mind and personality of their own. Some are calm and reserved, others brutish and loud. There are cities that are such powerful personalities that you can always tell when someone’s spent…
I can’t believe the season is winding down already. Seems like it just started! Well at least we still have a bit more Fire Force to go and boy is it stepping up its endgame. Last week was a brilliant show of atmospheric manipulation through colour and sound deprivation. This week? It’s all about skewed…
This is the second time I reference my favourite Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode on this blog and it probably won’t be the last. It made a pretty big impact on me and it’s a wonderful title. One that I would not assign to anything unless I judged it worthy. I sound so full of…
Genre : Isekai, Fantasy, adventure, comedy, romance, city planning Episodes: 24 +2 Studio: Eight Bit  Life is a grand adventure. You never know what’s going to happen. One second you’re just minding your own business, living a contempt if a little lonely life, appreciated by your colleagues and kouhais, the next, you’re a…
When Fire Force is good…well I tell you what I think about it over on 100 Word Anime. I hope you stop by and read all about it. One thing Fire Force in which is consistent, at least in my opinion, is impressive and playful visuals. This is why, even though I tell myself each…
Can you believe there’s only one episode left of Dr. Stone? I’m really going to miss this show. I do hope it gets a second season because it was a really fun ride and I’m not sure it got the credit it deserves. Then again, I’m a bit anime clueless so maybe it’s the biggest…
Genre : Action, comedy, supernatural, urban fantasy, science fiction. Episodes: 13 Studio: Bones You know what’s tricky? Navigating that confusing time between childhood and adulthood. Especially if you grew up as a bit of a loner. Feeling outcast and different all the time. And that type of isolation can cut deep. Loneliness can get…
