Top 5 Anime Pets
I am in the mood for some good fluff. And you know what’s fluffy and fuzzy or sometimes scaly? Pets! I’m an animal lover and that extends to anime animals. Try saying that ten times fast! The thing about pets in anime is that half the time they aren’t really pets. They’re little fighting pocket…
Top 5 Supporting Anime Characters That Should Get Their Own Series

Irina’s Top 5 Waifus and Matt’s Top 5 Husbandos
Do you guys have any feelings about the word waifu? I know some people may take the idea a bit too seriously but otherwise I have nothing against it. Sounds like a form of domestic martial art. What a fed up lady would use when her husband forgot to fold the laundry again. “She used…

Van Hohenheim and the beauty of the ordinary life
Some of you may know that (as of this writing) I’ve recently finished watching FMA; Brotherhood for the first time (the semicolon is a typo but it stays as proof that Steins;Gate is trying to take over my brain).
