What Makes Anime Love So Tolerable (To Me)?
It’s (probably) Valentine’s Day and love is in the air unless you’re in a major metropolitan area then that’s smog in the air! Don’t breathe in too deep, you don’t want to die of love inhalation. I’ll be like everyone else on this planet and talk about love on the love holiday because there’s nothing…

Fitness Boxing with Kenshiro is Something I Didn’t Know I Needed
I like Fist of the North Star! I can’t finish the anime because it’s so long and cheesy with multiple additions to the narrative that just feel tacked on to sell kids on it but I like Fist of the North Star! Post apocalyptic world with deadly martial arts fights feels like something that is…

The Anime I Watched in January
To be honest, I keep opening up this site to type out a blog and then I lose my steam and leave my ramblings in my drafts to rot forever more. This will be no longer! I’ll recap everything I watched from the previous month at the start of the next month so I can…

Solo Leveling Would’ve Hit So Much Harder If I Was in High School
If you’ve read my previous blog post then you’re aware that I’m trying to catch up on the anime that I missed in 2024 which, as you may have guessed by the title of this blog post, includes Solo Leveling’s first season. To be quite honest, I had no interest in this show when it…

New Year, New Ani”me”
It’s a strange thing to make your hobby or interest a “New Year’s Resolution” and, as weird as it is to do so, I think it’s as equally weird to have a New Year’s resolution. You should always try to improve yourself, right? The New Year doesn’t mean anything because you’re just as likely to…

I Love The Hunter Exam Arc in Hunter x Hunter So Much That It Burns Me Out
I recently started Hunter x Hunter for technically the fourth time since I’ve been on this Earth. The first occurrence was shortly after it was airing due to having a friendly recommendation, the second instance was starting the old 90s series in an insufferable attempt to be different, the third time was starting the manga…

Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai Is Shonen Anime By The Numbers Yet I’m Here For It
I’m not a big battle shonen anime fan. It’s not for a lack of trying as I try one after the other to manifest some sort of hook into me. it’s never really been a genre that resonated with me in a meaningful way because there are just a plethora of tropes that just cause…

Here’s A Redundant Question: What Even is a Weeb?
Get ready for some overindulgent rambling in this blog post, boys and girls and everything else, because that’s what I’m on about today. For those of you who may not know (like all two of you who didn’t come from my incessant plugging on said show), I host a podcast called the Anime Brothers where…
