The actual title of episode 1 of The Case Study of Vanitas is In the Event of Rusty Hopes. I mention it because I really love this title. Rusty Hope is such an evocative expression and it’s fun to say. It’s a much better title than my post title, to be honest. Oh, In case…

To Your Eternity ep. 12 – Rebirth
I usually watch To Your Eternity as it airs, which for me means Monday evenings, and I review it right after. That’s just what works best for me, while it’s all fresh in my mind. But we’re Tuesday. I wasn’t feeling up to watching it yesterday. I was tired and I just wanted something happy….
Mars Red Episode 12 – From Glen to Glen
Hello Everyone, I hope you’re all doing great! K, I hope you’re good as well! You know, for a second there I thought this was the last episode and they were just going to finish it like that. And I didn’t hate it. I’m glad we’re going to see the resolution but I think it…
To Your Eternity ep. 11 – Confession
I keep getting anxious when I watch To Your Eternity lately. The last few episodes have been lovely and I just sit there, waiting for the other soe to drop. I almost wish the show would pull a completely unjustified genre switcheroo and become a calm rural Slice of Life with some light supernatural elements….
To Your Eternity ep. 10 – Flamethrower
I might as well have called this week’s post “Irina is wrong about everything” and I have never been so happy about that. To Your Eternity was great this week. I teared up…because I was happy! I never ever thought this show would make me do that.
Mars Red Episode 10 – Hope
Hello all, hi Karandi. I read on Twitter that you were a little too sick to post over the weekend, I hope you’re doing better. Your health is the most important. Also hope it didn’t make all the anime you watched seem more sucky because you were feeling under the weather. You were already pretty…
To Your Eternity ep. 9 – Home
You know what I realized as I was watching this episode of To Your Eternity. I wanted Gugu and Fushi to go back to the Brewer’s house. Like deeply and desperately. Even as I was smiling and enjoying their adventures, something in my was pleading with them to just go back. Because if they just…
To Your Eternity ep. 8 – Freaks
Ok fine, To Your Eternity got me again. This is the first time since eipsode 1 completely gutted me that the show made me cry again. Maybe it just took me all ths time to get mysef back together. Oh my, aren’t I the fragile flower! And you know what got me! What made the…
Jujutsu Kaisen and the New Action Shonen
Titles: Sorcery Fight, JJK, Jujutsu Kaisen Genre: Action, supernatural, comedy, drama Episodes: 24 Studio: MAPPA Yuuji always knew he was a special guy. For one, he’s way too athletic for a normal high school student and it’s not like he works out that much or anything. He just seems to have been blessed with some…
Mars Red Episode 8 – Lost and Found
Welcome back to our Mars Red review. I have to admit, it took me a minute to get my bearings on this episode but once I was all caught up, it worked out well. But before we jump into it, how are you this week Karandi? Busy as usual but otherwise fine. All things considered…
To Your Eternity ep. 7 – Dreams
This was another tough episode to choose a title for. This time I was really torn between two options. Dreams obviously, which I ended up choosing but also Brothers. Fushi seems to be slowly building a family and I like that. It’s a good quest. I guess the whole save the world thing is ok…
Servamp was written for me (and possibly by me?)
Titles: SERVAMP -サーヴァンプ- Genre: Supernatural, action, comedy Episodes: 12 Studio: Brain’s Base What’s a Servamp you ask? Well, dear readers, a servamp is a servant-vampire. Yup, not kidding. That’s a silly name you think? I must say you are putting it more politely than I would. Servamps are indeed very silly creatures. As Mahiru is…
To Your Eternity ep. 6 – Maker
Mu one word naming scheme sort of came back to bite me with this week’s To Your Eternity. There were so many great options. Enemy was an early contender, as was Flora, Alphabet, Wisdom and Promise. That last one needs some excplanation. Although he didn’t do it in so many wrods, Fushi did promise to…
Phantom Tales of the Night – Manga First Impression
So lately I’ve been ordering a lot of manga. I’m in the mood to discover my next big manga love story. I’ve also not been reading as much webcomics. At least not family-friendly ones. As such, I figured I would switch my webtoon recommendations for manga first impressions until I build up a nice stock…
Mars Red Episode 6 – Noble Sacrifice
I’m sort of in survival mode right now which is fitting with a show like Mars Red. I know everyone is quite busy at this time of year but it seems like everything is just happening at once. Can’t wait until fall! How about you, Karandi? Things have sort of been more settled for me…
