Bungo Stray Dogs 5 – Episode 2

Bungo Stray Dogs dispelling the idea of ACAB right now, one grand conspiracy at a time. This is how it should be in the real world though. If cops are doing bad things, the good cops should stand up en masse. I’m sure it’ll happen any day now. This is what good cops look like. … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs 5 – Episode 2 →

Bungo Stray Dogs 5 – Episode 1

I don’t want to imply that I’m still half awake, but I just tried to title this document by editing the url and not the post title. I caught it in time though. Crisis averted. Speaking of crises, when the previous season of Bungo Stray Dogs ended, things were not looking particularly well for the … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs 5 – Episode 1 →

Quick Reviews: Otaku Elf, Yamada-Kun & A Galaxy Next Door

It’s summer. The season of sunshine and being outdoors. The season of eating ice cream and reading on the nice chair. It’s the season of, you guessed it, code red weather alerts. When I woke up this morning I heard the rain - it’s the 5th of July as I’m writing this, by the way … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Otaku Elf, Yamada-Kun & A Galaxy Next Door →

Netflix’s One Piece

Man oh man, did I think I was going to just pretend this wasn’t happening. But unfortunately we live in a world where a One Piece live action is happening and there’s nothing we can do about it. Live action adaptations of anime have a pretty bad track record, I personally can’t think of a … Continue reading Netflix’s One Piece →

Bump of Chicken

I’ve talked about Japanese musicians on this platform a decent amount already and I even did so recently when talking about strange band names and song names. You can check out my post Numbness like a ginger for that. In that post I talked about a couple of groups, one of which is a band … Continue reading Bump of Chicken →

Manga Quick Reviews: The Breaker Vol. 5, Wave, listen to me Vol. 9 & Yuru Camp Vol. 13

I’ve been doing quick reviews for anime for a while now, and it’s one of my favorite kinds of posts to write. Now, writing about the manga you read in the past month/week/quarter isn’t exactly a new idea, but many of my ideas aren’t new.

Shows in which the plot doesn’t really move forward at all, but characters just kind of exist in the world they live in. What’s vital to the success of these kinds … Continue reading Treasure Chest of Courage →

If you missed the first two quick reviews I did, you can find them here and here. If you’re all caught … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Farming Life, In/Spectre S2, Angel Next Door, Reincarnated Princess →

The things we hold dear

When I watch new anime at the start of a season, I tend to give a lot of different shows a start. Often a show will start off really fast and as the season progresses you realize that there might not be as much substance as you would have liked. On the flipside of this … Continue reading The things we hold dear →
