My January Anime Recap: Gachiakuta, Kaguya-Sama & the Fate series
I swear I’m going to be consistent this year. Probably. Going to try and bring back my monthly anime recaps if nothing more than to help give me some relief from the thoughts in my head since I might not have a podcast platform to do so for a while unfortunately. R.I.P. Anime Brothers, we…

How My Relationship with Anime Changed in 2025
Oh hey look I can type up a blog post when I want to! 2025 is coming to a close and I want to reflect on how 2025 held up for me as far as anime goes and I realized something as I thought about it: my interaction and enjoyment with anime really manifested into…

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 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 – Yaiba: Samurai Legend
Long before Gosho Aoyama pumped out chapters of Case Closed/Detective Conan like my heart pumps caffeinated blood, Aoyama-sensei dabbled in a few other manga. One of said manga was a twenty four volume series known as Yaiba which got an anime adaptation in ’93 courtesy of Pastel. I don’t know about its Japanese success as…

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…

I’ll Just Never Return to Some Anime
As part of my podcast’s Mamoru Hosoda celebration month, I recently got around to rewatching the film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. It was, when I watched it, an immaculate film that perfectly captured the capricious carefree days of being a teenager as you divert your expectations from tomorrow and just revel in having…
