I just realized that we’re at episode 18 of To Your Eternity. Somehow, I let the episodes slide by and lost count despite reviewing them every week. And episode 18 means that we only have 2 more episodes to go before the end of the season. That’s too bad. And it’s too bad because it…
Don’t worry girl! It happens to the best of us. You get real excited about a party, you put on your nicest dress and spend like an hour doing your hair just to have it look exactly like it always does. And when you get there, everything is great! It’s exactly what you wanted. Then…
Was it just me or was this episode of To Your Eternity not very…pretty. Like are we seeing the bottom of the funding bin? Did they have a rush and have to subcontract some of the animations this week? The art was just so wildly inconsistent that it actually became distracting to me. I do…
Yeah… I just like The Case Study of Vanitas. I read a bit further into the manga, and I have to say it’s the type of story that is really suited to an anime adaptation. Sure, the lavish and intricately detailed cityscapes are great but I’m willing to sacrifice them for the lush animation and…
I think I know To Your Eternity well enough now to know one thing: Tonari’s pretty much as good as dead. She got a ridiculously angsty backstory, they might as well be measuring her for a coffin right now. Not that she’s likely to get something as nice as a coffin. You know what I…
Yeah, The Case Study of Vanitas is definitely my jam. Not that many of my fellow bloggers seem to be watching it. I only see a few talk about it now and then but AniList tells me it’s the 4th most popular show of the season so I’m happy. It would be a huge bummer…
To Your Eternity is an early contender for the best new anime of 2021. Considering that I had been waiting for this anime since mid-2020, it makes me very happy to be able to say that. This said the competition is stiff. I’m having a very good anime year and I’m there are still loads…
Stay with me on this one. In The Case Study of Vanitas, the Book of the Blue Moon is an ancient magic grimoire that allows the user to either corrupt or find a vampire’s true name and therefore hold impressive power over them. Because to vampires, names can bind and curse them. The original owner…
I’m starting to really dig the narrated recaps at the begining of episodes. The fact that they are biased just adds such a great edge to everyting. And they often have some really great lines. This week, the line that struck me was that Fushi was like an arrow without a bow. I did a…
Titles: Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho, Yu Yu Hakusho: Ghostfiles, Yu Yu Hakusho, Ghost Fighter, Poltergeist Report, YYH Genre: Action, supernatural, shonen, fighter Episodes: 112 Studio: Studio Pierrot Yusuke is your average teenage hoodlum. Well except that he’s dead. Just not super permanently so. You see, Yusuke may be a hot-tempered pain in the behind but he’s not a…
I was wondering if the anime version of The Case Study of Vanitas was going to redeem Vanitas’ character a bit but nope. He’s still pretty aweful. And I’m digging the fact that the show acknowledges it. You’re not suppose to be impressed by his undehanded ploys this week. He’s just a jerk and we…
There was no new episode of To Your Eternity last week and it sort of left a hole in my week. I’ve gotten used to spending a little time alongside Fushi and it’s just not the same when he’s not around. I guess I’m going to have one more manga t read once the season…
Titles: Zombieland Saga: Revenge, Zombie Land Saga Revenge Genre: Idol, comedy, supernatural Episodes: 12 Studio: MAPPA Making it as an idol isn’t an easy task. And every step along the way can be your last! A year ago, Franchouchou put on what was suppose to be their marquis performance and bombed tragically. They’ve been working…
Jeanne D’Arc has got to be one of the most misinterpreted and reinterpreted characters that actually existed. I know I’ve seen a lot of versions of her in anime! And although this episode of The Case Study of Vanitas didn’t explicitly tell us who the character is, we all know, right? I mean, you put…
Titles: Kami-sama Hajimemashita, Kami-sama Kiss Genre: Romance, comedic, school, slice of life, supernatural, reverse harem Episodes season 1: 13 Episodes season 2: 12 Studio: TMS Entertainment You know how some people have really rotten luck when it comes to parents. You can’t choose your family, am I right? Well, Nanami Momozono is one of those…
