If nothing else, this season of Spy x Family has blessed me with some wonderful Yor gifs. And really that would be more than enough. But there are also some great episodes! Like this one. I am enjoying this arc a whole lot!

Dr. Stone: New World Episode 18 Review
I made wayyyy to many assumptions last week. But can you blame me? Dr. Stone can be edited in a very tricky way. I understand that sometimes the jump from manga to animation does make it a bit difficult to follow those very action packed scenes where a lot is going on and lately that’s…
The Apothecary Diaries Episode 7
I’m so glad the anime introduced a lot more people to the Apothecary Diaries. I remember that I never had much luck getting people to read the manga before the show was even announced but now those same folks are eager to talk about it with me and it makes my day. It’s a story…
Spy x Family episode 32 – Seafaring Family
I love when Yor goes feral. I’m not sure what it says about me but all my favourite scenes are ones where Yor is in assassin/ mama bear mode. and all of them usually involve Anya somehow. Because if there’s one thing Yor does very very well, it’s take care of the little ones she…
Dr. Stone: New World Episode 17 Review
There are so many good dads in Dr. Stone. I mean most shows don’t really feature parents at all but in Dr. Stone, whenever you see someone’s dad, they kind of rock. I do think they did Siyuz’s mom dirty, though. From the show, you would think she was an absentee parent or part of…
The Apothecary Diaries Episode 6
I just saw that the Apothecary Diaries is slated for 24 episodes and I’m a little stoked, I won’t lie. I did have some trouble adapting to the…adaptation… but now I really look forward to every new episode and the fact that I will get to see so many of them makes me pretty happy!
Spy x Family episode 31 – Familia
Oh my, the plot is thickening quite nicely is it not? It’s like a fine gravy by now. I am really enjoying this arc and I think Spy x Family should have more of these multi-episode storylines as they handle them quite well!
Dr. Stone: New World Episode 16 Review
You know what they say: The best defense is a good offense… I’m not quite sure who says that. Seems like a very aggressive stance. I mean you sort of have to be on the offense at all times to really make it work and that seems exhausting to me. I would be a very…
The Apothecary Diaries Episode 5
You have to pay attention! I must say watching the adaptation does have the added bonus that I’m picking up on little details that I might not have in a cold viewing. That’s what I’m choosing to call watching an anime without any knowledge of the source material. Essentially what I do 90% of the…
Spy x Family episode 30 – Family Vacation
I’m currently reading the latest volume of Spy x Family and it’s fantastic. It’s a flashback to Loid’s childhood. I’m not sure we’ll get that far in this season but I still can’t wait to see it animated. If I had to guess, I would say that I am going to cry! I’m a crybaby,…
Dr. Stone: New World Episode 14 Review
Remember when they introduced money to the universe of Dr Stone and I got all worried about what that would do to the social balance of the story. But I was also a little curious. It’s a pretty big task to try to illustrate and walk us through all the influences and changes the introduction…
The Apothecary Diaries Episode 4
I was talking with a friend about Apothecary Diaries (one I lent the manga to) and she brought up a good point. When watching the anime, you get the impression that they really put in a lot of effort designing Maomao but the rest of the characters where left by the sideline. And I agree….
Spy x Family episode 29 – Smart Cookie
Ok so that post title doesn’t have anything to do with families but it was too perfect to pass up. Is there a Japanese idiom that’s equivalent to a smart cookie? Because otherwise then it’s quite a coincidence!
Dr. Stone: New World Episode 14 Review
I just praised Ron Komonohashi for having essentially a bottle episode so it would be hypocritical of me not to do the same for Dr. Stone. It’s funny how these things come in waves. Especially in a show like Dr. Stone which is not only action-heavy but split between two groups of characters. But you…
The Apothecary Diaries Episodes 1-3
I had almost lost hope for this one. I remembered it being announced for the 2023 winter season but as all the premiers came and went and I started on the third episodes of some of the shows I’m watching, I figured it had been pushed back to a future season. So imagine how delighted…
