Gurren Lagann – Beauty in the Breakdown

Posted on March 1, 2023February 10, 2023 by Irina

Genre:  Science fiction, mecha, action, adventure, heartbreak in the best way Episodes: 27 Studio: Gainax I don’t know if I can do this one. I finished Gurren Lagann last night and it broke my heart in that delicate and pretty way only the right show at the right time can do. I’m grateful for it….

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…

Top 6 Anime that Made Me Cry

Posted on August 7, 2020August 7, 2020 by Irina

I couldn’t cut it down to 5. That’s How much of a crybaby I am! I guess I should preface this by letting you all know that I don’t necessarily cry when most people would. In general I am much more likely to cry at sappy or even happy moments then at sad ones. I’m…

My Favourite Animes I watched in 2019 – They may have come out years ago

Posted on December 21, 2019December 21, 2019 by Irina

I have a bit of a tradition with these posts! It’s a pretty straight up tradition, I write them and have a lot of fun doing it! The gist of it is that I look back on the year and pick my  favourite animes that I’ve watched over the past twelve months then try to…

Irina’s Top 5 Waifus and Matt’s Top 5 Husbandos

Posted on September 20, 2019September 20, 2019 by Irina

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…

Top 5 Anime That Made (Just) Me Think

Posted on August 16, 2019August 16, 2019 by Irina

I’m an odd sort of fellow. My brain latches onto very incongruous things and then just expands on them in ways that don’t always have a logical basis. I will find myself thinking back time and again on series and discovering new little elements to puzzle out. There are movies and shows which are obvious…

Top 5 Anime Dopplegangers

Posted on March 1, 2019February 23, 2019 by Irina

You know you’ve watched a sufficient but completely non-alarming amount of anime when you start to spot similarities between unrelated characters from completely different series. It’s happened to me a few times lately and for some reason it fills me with glee. What can I say, I lead a life of adventure and excitement! What’s more, in…

Yoko Littner – Behind Every Great Man

Posted on February 25, 2019January 30, 2019 by Irina

In case I’ve been too subtle on the point, I really liked Gurren Lagann. It’s not a particularly kind story though. It gets pretty rough with its cast. Of the survivors, few if any are unscathed. One of the prevalent themes of Gurren Lagann seems to be that a life well led is as rich…

Still Best Tag – The One Liner Challenge

Posted on December 20, 2018December 21, 2018 by Irina

This was one of my very favorite posts to put together last year! I almost jumped the gun and wrote it early on at least 3 separate occasions but now the time is finally here! I’m a little giddy…
