Well Valentine’s is done, if you’re lucky you’re still on a sugar high! Code Realize is just about to hit the ps4 market (March 30th!), and mostly I’ve been playing a whole lot of dating sims lately so I figure it’s a good time to talk about something that’s been on my mind. I love…
Very few things in life are sustained. Pretty much everything both inside and outside of ourselves, goes through periods of high stress and activity and moments of calm. For bloggers, this can mean seeing a dip in your page views and a marked slowdown in new followers. If you haven’t done anything obvious to cause…
Wait wait, hear me out. Don’t flood my comments yet with CCS and Sailor Moon shouts. I did think about this a little and I’d like to share my musings with you first. You are of course welcome to fill my comments with CCS and Sailor Moon shouts afterwards. I recently finished watching Magical Girl…
I: Hi guys! Welcome to March 2018. Are you having fun yet? Not to rub it in or anything but I’m having a blast! I’m desperately trying to survive the eternal winter called Montreal – Buddy has decided his strategy is going to be to learn how to use the toilet and never go out…
I have now been reviewing some shows on an episode by episode basis for weeks, WEEKS, so I’m fairly sure I now know everything there is to know about this particular process. I’ve thought about the differences of these types of posts as opposed to full series reviews and I figured those of you who…
Do you suffer from anime depression, maybe anime withdrawal or mourning? You know, do you get that cold empty feeling when you finish the last episode of a beloved anime series? I do. All the time. Look, I know this doesn’t actually qualify as a problem in any way. I’m not trying to pretend you…
Right now, I’m involved in an ongoing Kaizen at work. Basically, my input is required to restructure our entire office procedures and set up, plus my usual responsibilities to my clients. This has been a time-consuming venture of debatable value, that has left me much less time than usual to write posts. Almost no time…
I love stats. It’s already been properly established that I am essentially the personification of cool, so naturally statistical analysis and data mining are my jam. People, put your clothes back on. I understand it’s hard to control yourselves right now but you must try! I’ve seen a lot of you share your blog stats…
Since I started this blog, the most frequent comment I tend to get goes along the lines of “I’m sorry I don’t drink but I still enjoy your blog”. Well first, thank you, but you know the drinking games aren’t mandatory. I won’t get mad at you if you don’t do them. I don’t even…
I’m just going to be straight with you. This post isn’t about anything really. I don’t have anything in particular to say but I thought we could just chat for a bit. In fact, let me tell you this little story.. I got this blog started (as in I filled out WordPress’ little forms, got…
Some of you may have picked up on the fact that I’m not much of a romantic. It’s not that I have anything against lurve really but I am just generally bored by romantic storylines and find most of what passes for epic love stories to be frankly very unromantic…. I mean people still think…
For international anime fans, the prospect of seeing our beloved medium on the big screen has always been something of a pipe dream. Outside specialized film festivals, the lonely representative of anime in theaters has been Ghibli for the past decades. Don’t get me wrong, Ghibli studios have put out some decent films… But it…
ED – I just realized I’m an idiot and didn’t explain what any of this is… Wow – I hope I make it to 2018, folks. Karandi form 100 Word Anime, and I both have very strong feelings about Black Butler that differ on a few key points. One of the biggest ones is that…
One of my favorite new animes in recent history is My Hero Academia. I know, controversial stance! I know why I like MHA, and probably why most of you like it. It’s a cookie cutter shounen, respectfully espousing all the tropes of the genre, in the best way possible. It’s an extremely well made series…
Hello everyone! Maybe you stumbled on here by accident. Maybe I screwed up the scheduling and ended up posting his before Remy but this is part 2 (some of my sharper readers may have picked up on that from the title. In any case, you should probably read part 1 over at the Lily Garden…
