I know I’m not the only one who enjoys anime ops and eds. This isn’t a cutesy way to start the post, I’m actually sure as in I know it. People constantly post about their favourites. I recently came across a YouTube video that quizzes you with a series of OP clips. I really had…

Given Episode 9 – Resolution – Gallery
Karandi and I don’t often agree on anime, so when we do, you know it’s special! Heck we even disagree on this week’s episode of Given. Not the big picture but the details vary. Want to see what I’m talking about, you can check out our review on 100 Word Anime. Given has solid but…
Given Episode 8 – Chorus – Gallery
Most shows falter at some point. When you think back on the series as a whole, you remember it as one big story that you love or hate or are indifferent to. But when you review it episode by episode you can see the ups and downs. Find those weak spots.Did Karandi and I finally…
Given Episode 7 – Diminuendo – Gallery
This season’s Given has allowed me to create some of my favourite gifs. It’s actually a lot more than a nifty gif source. In fact, Karandi and I are really getting into it.Who are we kidding? We’ve been into it for a while! And we talk about episode 7 over on 100 Word Anime. Maybe…
Twilight Was Not What I Expected
Genre : Romance; Slice Of Life; Coming of Age; Music Length: not sure – sorry. Went by quickly… Studio: Twilight Studio There is a magical age we all go through. A time between childhood and adulthood when we start to figure out who we are but could still become just about anyone. An age…
Given Episode 6 – Tritone – Gallery
For me, Given is well and truly on a roll. I have been living in fear of it getting painful or overly dramatic and it manages to be undeniably painful but in a pleasant way. That doesn’t make much sense, does it. I might explain it a little better in my episode review with Karandi….
Given Episode 5 – Drum & Bass – Gallery
That gif took my a while to get just right but I absolutely love it. I’m getting better at making gifs I think. It’s not what I would call a marketable skill or any type of skill, and yet it makes me happy! I don’t know about getting better at reviewing but thankfully Karandi is…
Given Episode 4 – Rumour Has It – Gallery
Guys, Karandi didn’t even realize that Kaji was a talented violinist. I’m pretty sure I deserve him more that she does now. Have no clue what I’m talking about? Then you should absolutely read this!!!! That’s a link to my review of Given episode 4 with Karandi. I wanted to be cute but then I…
Given Episode 3 – Playing Hard to Get – Gallery
I’ll just say it, I’m digging Given right now. I told Karandi why. I tried to at least. She also gave her thoughts on the subject which is why you should really go read our discussion post HERE. But before you do that, how about you jog your memory of the episode by looking at…
Given Episode 2 – A Slow Crescendo – Gallery
Do you like sensitive young men with guitars? If so, you have come to the right place. If not, why not take a look anyways? Who knows, you might change your mind! I let Karandi do most of the heavy lifting on our ep2 discussion of Given because I was horribly sick on Thursday. Thankfully…
Given Episode 1 – Musings in E minor – Gallery
You know I can’t resist a screen cap gallery, especially one full of pretty characters. I’m only human guys! I must admit, I had very few expectations for the first episode of Given (or the show in general for that matter) but I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, I talked it all over with with…
Voice of Fox is Better Than You Think
Genre : Drama, Music, Workplace, Romance, Hacker Episodes: 12 Studio: Yumeta Company Hu Li is one lucky guy! He has a dream, you see. One of those silly pipe dreams we all have, of making it huge as a signer. But Hu Li may actually have the talent to see his dream through. That is until…
The Wonders of Classic Anime OPs
Just this morning I was listening to Hey Kids by Oral Cigarettes. It’s a great song. It also made me think about music in anime OPs. Hey Kids has a poppy bouncy rhythm, fairly fast pace and a great heavy bass line that energizes and makes the listeners want to dance and move. A good…
