So, you’ve been eying that special someone for months now. You stalked them but just a little and in a sweet way. Besides everyone stalks on social media… You’ve learned all you could, goat absolutely all your courage together, and managed to ask them out. Great! Except what now? You’ve decided to introduce them to…
You will probably not believe this but it’s summer! Actual Summer. Like every self-respecting Canadian, 75% of my closet is summer clothes that I can only wear approximatively 3 weeks out of the year. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, I love snow. But there’s a very particular type of crazy that takes over…
For some time now, I have been living with the uncomfortable reality that my house is clearly bugged and anime producers have been stealing my identity to create their characters…well their less interesting supporting characters….but still. To this day, I have yet to see a penny in residuals.That’s not how residuals work you say? That’s…
We all love a good vice actor right? (Typo and it stays!) They are a huge part of any anime. Do you guys also secretly want to be voice actors? Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like the blogs I read tend to go on much more about women seiyuus than men. I’m not…
Last month, I had the great pleasure to read this post on MagaKast and for some reason, it made me want to talk about those lovely flirty anime boys that get our hearts racing. I know I used the term playboy here, because I don’t have the swagger to pull off the much better term…
Oh my, a list of top anime Mom’s just in time for Mother’s Day, how deeply original Irina… Well pshaw! I’m a classic, I don’t need to hide behind the imaginative! A very long time ago, I did a list of top anime dads and I had a great time. I realized though that parents…
The shonen genre occasionally gets a bad rap for being an all-boys club. Even when prominent characters are women, they’re often relegated to waiting at home or being rescued all the time. At least that’s what the accusations are… Today, we’re proving the naysayers wrong with these five epic shonen ladies who can stand next…
I don’t know what it is, but I just can’t resist a dating sim. I wish I could say I can’t resist a good dating sim, but the fact is, I’ve played some pretty bad ones to completion and I will do so again in the future. There’s just something about those shallow, ridiculous occasionally brain numbingly…
Visual Novels and Otomes getting adapted to anime is a pretty common occurrence. It’s a good way to get some publicity for your game while putting out an anime with a guaranteed audience from the fans of the game. I’m gonna call it cross-media advertising. I’m pretty sure that’s not what it means…. Let’s face…
I thought I would kick off the Friday Five feature with something light and fluffy and silly. Not to be taken seriously in any way. I have been spoiled by a wealth of absolutely delicious anime characters in my time to the point that I have now splintered my anime harem into a myriad of…
Don’t worry I’ll be quiet… I’ll even try to tone down the brightness of this post for you. There, better? It’s o.k., it’ll pass. Everything’s going to be alright. I know, I know – this is the LAST time we do this, we are getting way to old for this stuff!.. Next year in Ibiza?…
I always get a real thrill out of being included in any blog community event. So you can imagine how ecstatic I was about finally being recognized as a hottie! It cheered me up to no ends… What do you mean that’s not what this is? Tagged Michel over at Raistlin0903 (or Raist as I…
I was trying to put together a post on Fate/Stay Night and went on a rambling sideline about what makes for a good visual novel adaptation. You should stick to a single path rather than try to incorporate all routes in a single narrative. If you start from X-rated material and you want to take…
Just like every other person in the world, I recently finished playing Dream Daddy and it got me thinking about dads in general. I’ve mentioned before that I have a soft spot for father characters in anime, especially good dads, and since I don’t have the patience to wait until June 17, 2018 (that’s father’s day here),…
Honestly – why didn’t I think of this earlier… Whether sloppy lightweight or hard drinking party animal, liquor loving characters are often used to inject some fun loving life into a story. They remind us to enjoy the good times through slurred speeches and stumbling walks. It should be noted that I am using the…
