A little while ago…actually I have no clue when this will actually publish so maybe some months ago… I watched A Whisker Away and I was completely charmed by the beautiful views of the city that were present throughout the movie. When an anime captures the beauty of the world surrounding the characters it can…

Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 12 – Promises
The season finales are rolling in and for now at least, Somali and The Forest Spirit has come to an end. This show had one of my favourite opening episodes. I was absolutely charmed by it. Where do we stand now?
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 11 – Things Are Looking Grim
I thought about writing Grimm instead of Grim but then realized it was a pretty weak pun and probably no one would get it except me. Besides I make so many typos that most people would probably just assume it was one of them. If you’re new here, welcome to my blog! It’s super duper…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 10 – When You Name Something It’s Yours
It’s a little more involved than that. You can’t just go to your friends house, tell then their playstation is now named George and then take it home. Naming something is about more than just the name itself. The name has to be recognized for one. And when you’re naming a living being then the…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 9 – Sugar Shack
Do you know how to tell if someone’s Canadian? Wait 5 minutes and they’ll tell you! Or maybe that’s just me? Anyways, I’m Canadian so when the episode started on what was clearly a fantasy parallel for the maple syrup industry, I got super excited. Cause I’m Canadian you see. Also I love maple syrup…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 8 – Golems are Liars
I’m not sure what to say about this week’s Somali and the Forest Spirit. That’s a great way to start a post isn’t it… I watched it last night, I remeber what happened, it’s not like I forgot the episode, but I just haven’t really formed any thoughts about it yet. It was one of…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 7 – Return to Magic
One thins that I really have to give Somali and the Forest Spirit is that it’s really beautiful. At the very least, I think so. And I have since the first episode. That means a lot to me. And a land of witches and magic is the perfect setting to exploit the strengths of such…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 6 – Birds of a Feather
Somali made a second friend it seems. I think Kikila was a better influence. General rule of thumb, when in doubt, pick the friend that hasn’t seriously tried to kill you. Maybe that’s just me.
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 5 – Desperate Times
I see what Somali and The Forest Spirit is trying to do with this arc. At least I think I see it. But in my opinion there’s a fatal flaw in the plan. But I’ll get to that in just a minute!
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 4 – A Kind Lie
With every passing week, Somali and the Forest Spirit is reminding me more and more of Ghibli with maybe just some traditional Disney sprinkles here and there. And I know we’ve been very disillusioned with Disney (with good reason I might add) but there’s no denying the impact and importance of the studio on the…
Somali and The Forest Spirit Episode 3 – Poisoned Mushroom
For some reason, the 1000 word or so episode review I wrote for Somali and the Forrest Spirit on Thursday seems to have vanished, all but the feature image that is. So I now find myself trying to rewrite it on the spot and I can’t say I’m thrilled about it. I liked that review…
Somali and The Forest Spirit is also sweet (Episode 2)
This season on my blog I’m reviewing Somali and Haikyuu. The two shows that have been most damaging to my screencap disease recovery efforts… Just saying you’re going to see a lot of pretty pictures! I hope you like them!
Somali and The Forest Spirit Sure is Pretty (Episode 1)
I just saw the first episode of Somali and the Forest Spirit when it premiered on Thursday and about 3 seconds in I said to myself, boy, this show sure is pretty! This is the first thing I’ve seen of the winter season so I didn’t know if I would be reviewing it or not…
