It’s not often I watch an anime that completely transports me to another world. I used to get this feeling a lot more when I was younger. One Piece, Bleach, Naruto and even early Fairy Tail would make me feel like my worries are no longer an issue and let me just enjoy the world … Continue reading I loved Ousama Ranking (Spoilers)

Ousama Ranking Review (no spoilers)
I got into this show a few weeks after it started airing because initially the artstyle seemed a bit childish. What I didn’t realize is that this artstyle gives the anime a charm that you don’t really see in other shows that much. It both looks adorable yet believable at the same time. And it … Continue reading Ousama Ranking Review (no spoilers)

Encanto (My review)
I just made something unexpected. Something sharp, something new. It’s not symmetrical or perfect, But it’s beautiful and it’s mine. What else can I do?

Exploring the genre: Sports Anime
I have to admit that I’ve struggled to write this post properly for a while now. I think this is at least my fifth draft. I don’t know why, it’s a topic I’m passionate about, but I just can’t get it written in a quality way. Perhaps this is the one. And if not, you’ll … Continue reading Exploring the genre: Sports Anime

This season of anime hasn’t impressed me too much. There are obvious winners in the sequels of Attack on Titan and Demon Slayer.

I debated … Continue reading 5 Shows to watch in Winter 2022
Black Clover is stupid
I’ve been wanting to write about Black Clover for a while now. The shonen anime based on the manga by Yuki Tabata has finished already, although a sequel is very much possible seeing that the manga is still going in full swing. I’ve been reading the manga weekly for a very long time now, since … Continue reading Black Clover is stupid

Aquatope of the white sand
When I watched the first episode of Aquatope it definitely piqued my interest enough to keep watching, but it wasn’t at the top of my list of shows that I was waiting for. It just seemed like a pleasant slice of life show with cute character designs. And that is definitely true, but there is … Continue reading Aquatope of the white sand
