I can’t quite explain this. Every week, I watch Chainsaw Man and enjoy it. I think it looks good while I’m watching it. Maybe not my favourite visuals but there is definitely a flair to the production. Then the episode ends and I start sorting through the screencaps that were taken automatically. Without fail, every…
Last week I divided up all my screencaps because the episode went through so many visual changes that when you grouped them all together, they lost their impact. This sort of visual evolution adds a sense of movement to the episode. This week it’s the complete opposite. All my screencaps look like they could be…
Even though we’re almost halfway through the season (boy this season is just flying by, isn’t it?), in many ways it feels like Chainsaw Man is just starting. This is the first episode where it doesn’t seem like something new is going to start next week. It feels like the roots of a plotline that’s…
Are you guys starting to get a feel for this show yet? That was episode 4 of 12, we’re a third of the way through. I’m starting to think that we won’t be getting through the Public Safety Arc in just one season. In fact, I hope we don’t. I wouldn’t mind if the anime…
It’s actually Halloween! Happy Halloween everyone. I hope you get lots of treats in your preferred form. I hope you have fun and that your costume is not too uncomfortable. And if you’re not going to wear a costume, I still hope you’re not too uncomfortable! Since Halloween falls on a Monday this year, it…
The pieces are slowly falling into place for me. There were a lot of little moments in this episode that for me, came through a lot better in the anime. still think that the simple fact that the action is animated makes the series feel more like an action shonen than a brooding horror but…
Generally, I will always prefer anime to manga. There are exceptions of course. And one of those exceptions is horror. This is not to say that there aren’t good horror anime but I find that horror for me works better on the page than on the screen. Part of it is that my own imagination…
Titles: Tasogare Otome x Amnesia, Dusk Maiden of Amnesia Genre: Supernatural, mystery, comedy, drama, school, horror Episodes: 12 Studio: SILVER LINK. Seikyou Academy has a paranormal investigation club. What’s the big deal, you may be thinking? Tons of anime high schools have paranormal investigation cubs. That’s nothing to get excited about. Well, what if I…
The first episode of Chainsaw Man left me a bit unsure. I did like it but it was such a different experience from the one I had had with the manga that I ended up a little baffled. And knowing what lies ahead only worsened my unsteadiness. In a way, that makes me even more…
Titles: Sankarea Genre: Horror, drama, comedy, supernatural, romance, ecchi Episodes: 12 + 1 (I Too Am A Zombie) Studio: Studio DEEN I remember when twilight came out and a large number of people made fun of young women for finding pale vampire boys attractive. But you know what, it’s not like boys aren’t just as…
Just like everyone else I have been eagerly waiting for the anime adaptation of Chainsaw Man. This season is overflowing with amazing anime that I had been waiting for and that’s the only reason I haven’t been as focused on Chainsaw Man. Normally, this is all I would have been talking about for some time….
Unlike anime, I don’t review every manga I read. So you probably won’t know that I actually have been reading a series of gloomier, macabre and gorey manga lately. I think I Can’t Stop Cursing You is the only one I’m going to review though. If you want to know why you need to read…
We are finally at the end of Demon Slayer Entertainment District Arc. “No Matter How Many Lives”, marks the finale of the second…third? season of Demon Slayer and Crow and I are here to tell you all about it. It’s a bit of an odd title considering the episode went out of its way…
Well, things are certainly looking though in Demon Slayer Entertainment District Arc episode 9, “Defeating and Upper Rank Demon”. That’s quite a misleading episode title there! I’m going to break up the post in a more general discussion of the seasons as well as a few targeted observations about the episode itself. I do plan…
In Demon Slayer Entertainment District Arc episode 7, “Transformation,” Nezuko’s confrontation with Warabihime/Daki seems to be a draw. Although Nezuko winning this fight might mean her losing something a lot more precious. But thankfully her brother is there for her. Meanwhile, Uzui finally catches up with them. It seems that there’s more than just flash…
