It’s Friday Fun Day! And if nothing else, Visual Prison certainly is the most fun show I am reviewing this season. Oh wait, I actually publish these on Saturdays. This whole intro doesn’t work anymore. Well, that’s kinda par for the course when it comes to this blog. I hope you all enjoy my random…
Titles: Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight, Girls’ Musical Revue Starlight Genre: Surrealism, drama, musical, school, CGDCT Episodes: 12 Studio: Kinema Citrus Karen and Hikari are going to be stars. They are going to be Stage Girls that shine brighter than any others. There’s no doubt about it! After all, they did promise! And now, they may have…
The real title for this week’s episode of Visual Prison is Shangri-la of Cruelty. I don’t think I could ever top that. I think it’s also the title of the OP song. In any case, it’s the best most ridiculous title ever and we should take a moment to appreciate the emo word salad that…
Guys, we need to talk. I know I joke around a lot about anime trying to brainwash me into being attracted to mullet. And Visual Prison is certainly guilty of that as well. 50% of the main band have mullets. But seriously, please stop getting Mullets. On and wolf cuts, are just mullets. They’re the…
There’s a random naked guy in the opening tag of this week’s Visual Prison. He’s one of the Eclipse guys and there is no clue in the scene to explain why he’s naked. It’s quite surreal. No one mentions it or reacts to it at all. And after the opening credits, the show doesn’t even…
Visual Prison is getting more ridiculous with each passing episode. I mean that as the loving compliment it is. Although I figure it will be very detrimental to the overall rating the show receives. It works for me though. And if you have a healthy sense of humour and appreciation for kitsch, it may work…
Obviously, Visual Prison is not a show that will appeal to the masses. It’s a rather self-indulgent parody that’s a bit too soft to really be bitting. You know.., ’cause vampires… Unsurprisingly though, I like it. I haven’t been having much luck with my seasonal picks and this one is exactly what I was hoping…
Ok, wait so where do I start. I have so much to say. Visual Prison sort of got me by surprise…although it was also kinda what I expected. If anyone could realistically expect such a spectacle as this first episode of Visual Prison! But wait before we get into that, there’s Funimation. Oh boy… this…
Titles: BECK Genre: Music, slice of life, school, drama, romance Episodes: 26 Studio: MADHOUSE Yukio is going to start high school soon but he hasn’t really figured anything out yet. He doesn’t know what he wants to do or who he wants to be. He doesn’t have any really close friends and isn’t passionate about…
A different kind of collaboration  You can just about learn anything about anyone from cars to music. So who wouldn’t want to learn about Irina music tastes or mine? But with a anime addition.    Oh so so long it’s been I’ve done a collaboration and for an idea I had in mind. […]…
Titles: Star Mu; STARMYU; High School Star Musical Genre: Comedy, School, Slice of Life, Music, Stardust Episodes: 12 Studio: C-Station Ayana Academy is a school like no other. The lucky young men who graduate from its hallowed halls don’t just get to look forward to a bright future, they get to become Stars! But that’s…
Okay, so that GIF is one that I made from the series and not from the movie but since it’s Haruki and Kaji, I figured it fits. And I really like it so I wanted an excuse to use it again! I have a special treat for you guys! Today I’m joined by not one,…
Titles: Carole & Tuesday, C&T, Carole y Tuesday Genre: Drama, music, scifi Episodes: 24 Studio: BONES There’s something magical about music, isn’t there? And by extension about the people capable of creating it. Since time immemorial music has been a way for us to face out demons and master our grief. It’s been a way…
Genre: School, Slice of life, idol, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: Bandai Namco Pictures Just because you’ve made your debut, doesn’t mean you’re an idol yet! That is the lesson all the boys of Dear Dream need to learn after winning the Dream Festival. Sure they’ve got an album out now and are reliably…
Genre: CBDCT, School, Slice of life, brothers, idol, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: Bandai Namco Pictures Being an idol is an underappreciated art. It’s a lot more work than people think it is. Gruelling workouts and rehearsals to keep your voice and body in top physical shape. Constant promotion to get your name out…
