Tsurune 2 Episode 4 -Beautiful

Posted on January 28, 2023January 27, 2023 by Irina

Last season when Minato had to take a step back from Kyoudo, it was always this big drama. He does get banned from using bows a lot… I figured we would be for another really emotional run of Minato pinning for archery. But now, everyone else is treating it like it’s really no big deal…

Tsurune 2 Episode 3 -Shamen uchiokoshi

Posted on January 21, 2023January 21, 2023 by Irina

Archery looks like fun, doesn’t it? Not necessarily competitions. That seems a bit too stressful for my tastes. Especially when your performance can let your entire team down. But just shooting at a target looks like tons of fun. I’ve done it a few times in my life and always enjoyed it. I can totally…

Tsurune 2 Episode 2 – Rivals!

Posted on January 14, 2023January 11, 2023 by Irina

An odd thing happens when I watch Tsurune. I simultaneously think to myself, what a calm, quiet little show. It sure is breezy for a Sports anime but then before I know it, the closing credits are rolling over the image. Where did the time go? How did it fly by when almost nothing happened?…

Tsurune 2 Episode 1 – Sports!

Posted on January 8, 2023January 5, 2023 by Irina

I actually reviewed the first season of Tsurune a little over 4 years ago when it aired. I was, and am, a big fan of Sports anime and one about archery seemed particularly attractive to me in concept. I ended up liking the show quite a bit. I had forgotten just how beautiful it can…

Top 5 Anime Recipes

Posted on January 6, 2023December 30, 2022 by Irina

Everyone likes food. You should be very suspicious of someone who says they don’t like to eat. I’m just sayin. A good meal is magic. And I know for a fact that I’m not the only blogger with an interest in cooking. I have always wanted to have some sort of anime cookbook. In fact,…

Tsurune Episode 13 – Bullseye

Posted on January 27, 2019January 26, 2019 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation For the past few weeks, I’ve noticed a fairly large number of commercial for high tech shooting bows playing on YouTube. Considering my personal internet habits, I can only assume that the ridiculous number of Tsurune screencaps I’ve uploaded has tricked google into thinking I’m some kind of shooting…

Tsurune Episode 12 – The Importance of Being Ochi

Posted on January 20, 2019January 19, 2019 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation Waiting is always the hardest part, isn’t it? Those moments of uncertainty where meager hope keeps the pain nice and sharp and healing has no chance to begin. When you’re in the moment your vision dwindles down to the smallest pinpoint. Your senses dull and you walk around in…

Tsurune Episode 11 – Little Earthquakes

Posted on January 13, 2019January 13, 2019 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation Am I the only one who was a huge fan of Tori Amos when they were a kid. I really use to play her music non stop. I should see what she’s done lately. I was always particularly drawn by the way she manage to inject this pretty and…

Tsurune Episode 10 – Giving it Another Shot

Posted on December 30, 2018December 30, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation We’re actually rounding up the last few episodes of Tsurune (already? this sow has flown by for me) and a few themes are becoming quite obvious. One is the Power of Friendship which, well duh, it is at least in theory a sports anime. But this has been tempered…

Tsurune Episode 9 – On A Dark and Stormy Day

Posted on December 23, 2018December 23, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation The boys are back on their home turf and I have to admit I found I a little comforting. I have always been a homebody. Even if I’m away on vacation somewhere, there’s always that moment when you slink back to your hotel room, absolutely exhausted and crumbled unto…

Tsurune Episode 8 – Straight as an Arrow

Posted on December 16, 2018December 16, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation Guys, when does trolling become bullying? First Tsurune basically mocked me for not using the Other Shu title for two weeks in a row. Now, hen I more or less randomly picked “Another String to your Bow” last week, they have an entire restringing scene with emotional significance in…

Tsurune Episode 7 – Adding a string to your bow

Posted on December 9, 2018December 9, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation It’s like this show is daring me to use that “other Shu drops” title. Mocking my lack of gumption and failure to follow through with my dumber instincts. Why show..why?… Adding a string to your bow is an odd expression which means acquiring a new skill or figuring out…

Tsurune Episode 6 – The restrained beauty of propriety

Posted on December 2, 2018December 2, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation I really considered naming this week’s review “the other Shu drops”! I’m depressingly and unreasonably fond of that title. It’s pretty stupid and doesn’t fit the tone of either Tsurune or this post. And I love it. If this is your first time here: welcome, I believe that little…

Tsurune Episode 5 – Yawatashi

Posted on November 25, 2018November 24, 2018 by Irina

Genre: Drama; Sports; School Studio: Kyoto Animation I realize that most of my readers don’t watch Tsurune. This isn’t very surprising and I fully expected it when I started reviewing the show. However, this means that I have the added responsibility to covey the series in the most accurate and objective way to my audience as…
