After reflecting and rereading my June Anime Recap, I have come up with a solution for the sake of a more readable blog post: split it into two! That way I can enjoy more time typing up what has made me happy about the anime I’ve seen each month and I’m also not exhausting you…
Despite the fact that I am functionally literate and not attracted to my cousins, I spent the better part of my adolescence growing up in the backwoods of the Alabama countryside with a VERY small farm that my family owned. I mean, this thing was pitifully small and extremely ramshackle but we did, for reasons…
Hi there! It’s been a minute since I’ve screamed into the void of this blog and there’s been reasons for that! I’ve been extraordinarily stressed between work, family strife, and the general unflinching despair instilled upon me by the world! Regardless, let’s discuss the anime I completed this month and revel in the portmanteau joy…
First and foremost, I’ve never been partial to the notion that 3D animation or the strict and exclusive usage of it (like Beastars or Hoseki no Kuni) lessens an anime or strips it of its status as anime.

It’s really odd to think that My Hero Academia’s first season will reach its 10th anniversary in just a year but alas time flies when you’re trying to let the fan base just live in peace. I remember actually watching that first season with my partner at the time and being super stoked on the…
So as you may have discerned from my overwhelming lack of posts, I’ve not been watching anime as regularly in the past month. I don’t know why but I’ve just not been able to sit down and just enjoy an anime. There’s always something in the back of my mind like “you could be using…
When I was younger, I used to love the Toonami block particularly the anime. I knew there was something innately different about the anime as the stories tied into each other and every episode was important to the next. They were fun to watch but also were essential to get the most out of the…
