Maki, Maki, Maki! Those of you who have been following my Fire Force posts may have noticed that I have a bit of a thing for Maki. And by thing, I mean enormous and desperate crush. That’s saying quite something since Maki shares a series with Hibana. And it’s real though to take your eyes…

Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III Episode 6 – A Man Named Modaka
I’m almost afraid to ask how it’s going Crow. I’m over here in an entirely different country and these elections are wearing me down. And I’m not even that politically engaged a person. Fact is, this particular election is very emotional and important for a lot of people. With good reason, I might add. And…
Noblesse ep 5 – Delicious Raw Ramen
I’m not gonna lie, it wasn’t easy finding a follow up to the heavenly poetry that was last week’s Noblesse post title. I realize that I failed. But to be fair, it was an impossible task. Still, I think I managed to accurately capture my favourite part of the episode. And it’s something I really…
Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep.18 – Cursed Gravity!
I went through a lot of potential titles in my head for this week’s Haikyuu!! To The Top post. I thought about calling it Mind Games to play into the fact that even when they are not at their physical peak, Nakoma is a frightful opponent because they play a very cerebral game. A controlled…
Fire Force 2 Episode 18 – Crisis of Faith
Canva, the site I use for my little header images was down, and for a second there, I thought this week’s Fire Force Post wouldn’t have a proper header. That bothered me way more than it should. It’s odd how little things like that can get under your skin. Now let’s imagine I had built…
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III Episode 5 – Gallery
This season Crow and I are collaborating on: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III episode reviews. If you want to, it would be great if you go read our review post over on Crow’s site. As I write this, we haven’t written it yet but I’m sure it…
Noblesse ep 4 – Regis! You Giant Bag ‘o Butts
I’m not the deepest person out there. I can be occasionally superficial. No, no it’s true. I know it. Please take a minute to sit down and recover from the shock. In the early scenes of this week’s Noblesse, like in the first 4 minutes, I thought to myself, hmmmm… Tao and Takeo are both…
Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep.17 – Leveling Up
This may come as a surprise to some of you, but I really really liked this week’s episode of Haikyuu To The Top! Ok fine, I’m goofing. I really like all episodes of Haikyuu To The Top. And of Haikyuu in general. It’s a great show with really great OP and ED music choices. I’m…
Fire Force 2 Episode 17 – Protectors
The Fire Force Season 3 anime will tell the final tale of Shinra in the Enen no Shouboutai manga’s ending. But the real shocking news is that Fire Force creator Atsushi Ohkubo has announced that this story will be his final manga! via Monsters and Critics I don’t know if that’s true. I hope it…
Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III Episode 4 – Told You He Was A Dix
It’s Friday, everyone! My first Friday since I came back from vacation so let me tell you I really really wanted it to get here. Partly because there are so many great shows airing on Friday this season. I always do good with Friday shows. For my personal taste IIWTTTPUGIAD is actually my least favourite…
Noblesse ep 3 – Tech Bros
Alright, it’s been two episodes now and I feel safe with Noblesse. It is definitely not taking itself too seriously. It does weave in more serious action threads but the bulk of the episode remains just silly fun. And I love it. I’m not sure what the fate of the anime will be but if…
Haikyuu!!: To the Top ep.16 – Simplicity is Best
My last post of the first half of Haikyuu!! To The Top was called The Ballad of Tanaka The Stupid. I really liked that episode as well. It made me happy. But I do regret the title now. Kinda. Simple isn’t stupid and it isn’t easy. In fact, simple is often the mark of something…
Fire Force 2 Episode 16 – The Enemy of my Enemy
I went to my Birthday party on Friday and I sort of forgot about all the anime I had to watch that evening. So it wasn’t until I tuned into Fire Force on Saturday that I remember where the last episode had left off. And suddenly, I was super excited about it all over again….

This season Crow and I are collaborating on: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? III episode reviews. And you should totally go read our review post over on Crow’s site. It was a really fun episode to discuss Now this here is my Gallery post. Originally I started doing…
Noblesse ep 2 – Frankie’s Long Night
This was a very special episode of Noblesse for me for two reasons. First of all the show seems to be catering to all my whims and preferences. Which is generally how I prefer things and people to interact with me. But way more importantly, my dear friend Foovay and her wonderful hubby are symbolically…
