Top anime characters with brown hair and brown eyes

Posted on July 1, 2022May 13, 2022 by Irina

Brown hair and brown eyes are sort of a very normal combo, aren’t they? Don’t get me wrong, some of the most beautiful people in the world have brown hair and brown eyes. In fact, most of them do. But brown is the most common colour for both hair and eyes, so it isn’t that…

5 Anime Characters who are Much Older than they Look

Posted on June 24, 2022April 12, 2022 by Irina

I feel like the post title is pretty self-explanatory. Even though anime regularly draws 13 year-olds like they might be in their mid20s. There are some characters that are eternally youthful. But in the cases of some of these characters, it’s just ridiculous! I need to know what face cream they’re using. Sometimes we get…

Top 5 Anime Religions

Posted on April 23, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

Just to be clear, these posts are always just my completely subjective and occasionally random picks. Not an actual value judgment. Wait, that’s not what I wanted to clear up. Oh yeah, when I talk about anime religions I’m not talking about Anime that feature religious themes or elements. And I’m not talking about a…

5 Times I Preferred the Manga to the Anime

Posted on April 2, 2021March 14, 2021 by Irina

Believe it or not, this was one of the toughest lists for me to put together. First of all, I rarely read manga on an anime I’ve already seen and vice versa. I’m just too curious and impatient, so I have a tendency to want to discover new stories instead of adaptations. Also, I just…

I’m back asking the important questions! Have you ever asked yourself in fact, if you ever got magically transported to your favourite anime universe, would you be an interesting character. A fan favorite? Would the audience hate you or worse, ignore you?

Top 5 Anime Foreigners

Posted on May 31, 2019May 28, 2019 by Irina

Over on Karandi s blog, I wrote a post about the general trends we see in the way foreign characters are portrayed in anime. And by foreign, I meant characters that are not Japanese but are in a Japanese setting. How outsiders are shown to interact with Japanese society and culture. It’s a subject I…

Top 5 Anime Magnificent Bastards

Posted on May 24, 2019 by Irina

I know it’s not just me. I know I’m not the only one with tragically bad taste in anime boys. My taste in anime ladies though is unquestionable!!! A simple look at popularity polls and general online chatter is enough to show you that there are a number of incredibly popular anime characters who are…

Live Action Anime or Nah?

Posted on January 5, 2019December 30, 2018 by Irina

It’s nothing new for popular anime to get a live action remake (or a stage play which I desperately want to see someday) but with Netflix getting in the game lately, and the incredible popularity of comic book movies which could be seen as a western counterpart, we seem to be getting more and more…

Anime Fridge Horror (Countdown to Halloween)

Posted on October 27, 2018October 27, 2018 by Irina

For those not familiar with the expression, fridge horror is when something really awful is implied by the plot but never felt with directly by the narrative so the horror of it all only hits you after a while, if you stop to think about it. I don’t think I’m shocking anyone when I say…

Mello’s Middle Child Syndrome

Posted on July 9, 2018June 24, 2018 by Irina

I’ve mentioned this before, but I have never seen the Death Note anime. I tried once or twice but couldn’t really get passed the first two episodes. See, the Death Note manga is one of my favorites and somehow, I just couldn’t adjust to the little differences from how I had established it in my…

Top Anime Dream Daddies

Posted on September 9, 2017May 18, 2018 by Irina

Just like every other person in the world, I recently finished playing Dream Daddy and it got me thinking about dads in general. I’ve mentioned before that I have a soft spot for father characters in anime, especially good dads, and since I don’t have the patience to wait until June 17, 2018 (that’s father’s day here),…
