My August Anime Recap: Nightlife Vampires, Happy Octopus Aliens, and Girls in Bands Fighting (and Crying).
Have I mentioned how thick summer’s seasonal anime lineup is? I’ve barely considered watching anything but what I’m enforced to by my podcast or just whatever randomly takes hold of my mind (like Gintama). I only have three shows to talk about but they’re all, honestly, pretty alright. The funniest thing that this blog post…

Gintama’s Comedy Is Intertwined With Its Drama – Reflections on Episodes 86 and 87
I’ve typed up a couple of blog posts in the past few weeks but have all left them to rot in my drafts because either A) they felt way too negative (anime fans are making me disappointed) or B) they became nothing posts (mid month anime update where I’ve watched NOTHING). With that status update…

My July Anime Recap: Mecha Horses in Jungle Waters
It’s the end of the month so I’m reviewing and discussing all the anime I watched in the second part of July! The first blog post was fun to type plus it didn’t go on FOREVER so I definitely think I’ll keep to this kind of format for my own enjoyment and possibly yours if…

My Mid-July Anime Recap: The Last of the Spring Seasonals (and a Movie)
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…

My May Anime Recap: May-saaki Yuasa and The Rest of the Ani-May
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…

Seasonal Samplings – To Be Hero X
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. Animation and their techniques evolve over time. It’s like certain parties who proclaim that artists who use…

My April Anime Recap: The Dangers in My Watchlist
I’m going to be frank with you. If we’re being technical (and by god are we technical) then I only finished two anime this entire month but I started a whole bunch just to not finish them. That said, I finished two anime on May 1st so they’re getting added to April for the sake…

Seasonal Samplings – My Hero Academia: Vigilantes
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…

My March Anime Recap: Chilling with a Crisp, Refreshing Hosoda
I know you might visit for a perspective charged with levity (or at least mild levity) but with the passing of my father this week, I’m honestly struggling at times to find the brighter side in some regards. My dad and I have a history fraught with tension and miscommunication but I also grasp what…
