Being someone who makes content centered on anime and manga on the internet can be a difficult thing to do sometimes. Especially seasonal anime reviewers. People who watch an episode and then write or record their thoughts for their post the next day. I don’t know how people do that. I struggled with doing episodic … More A Self Reflection: Reading and Watching for Reviews
Just like Strain, this is also a series that came completely out of nowhere for me. In a slightly different way though. Unlike Strain, I didn’t buy this one on DVD out of nowhere to watch it. Instead, this is one of a few series I’ve watched legally on Funimation’s youtube channel from a friend’s … More Anime I like, but haven’t talked about yet: Maria the Virgin Witch
So, I’ve been hinting at this all week with my subtly called not Mamoru Oshii week. You know, because I am just so clever like that apparently. So clever I didn’t tell anyone about it. Encase I didn’t point it out too well, Patlabor 3 is a film that is a part of Mamoru Oshii’s … More #OshiiOct Mamoru Oshii October Announcement
This show is my biggest hidden gem ever. I’m serious about this. One day years ago when I was at a Best Buy to purchase anime, I bought the first season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. With no idea what I was getting into, I also bought Strain on DVD on the … More Anime I Like, But Haven’t Talked About Yet: Strain – Strategic Armored Infantry
I posted part 1 with a lot more focused look at shows last week, but this week is going to be a lot more unfocused and messier in terms of how this list is formed. This is a list that I originally thought about splitting into different kinds of genres, demographics, and categories, but just … More A Look at the 2010’s Part 2: Random Series I Really Liked
I know that I’ve mentioned in a post or two in the past that I’ve been reading the original Dragon Ball manga on SJ+. It was either in my Dr. Slump post here or when I compared Dragon Ball with Hunter X Hunter here. So yes, I’ve been reading it on and off and have … More Dragon Ball: When Added Context Makes A Story Better?
When I originally was thinking about doing this, I didn’t want to create yet another list of shows from the 2010’s that people loved. All for a wide variety of reasons. That’s just the more complex way to say laziness. The hard work of creating a delineated and numbered list out of shows that I’ve … More A Look Back at the 2010’s Part 1: Creators and Franchises
[ This is not a serious post. In light of current pandemic things, I just wanted to do something creative and positive in a funny way. Hope that comes across in this post. If not, I apologize. 😦 ] Do not watch find anime on cable/satellite, find it online, watch it on an app, or … More Surgeon General’s Warning: DO NOT WATCH ANIME
It’s been a while since I’ve done a post like this. I think that means that it’s time for another one. I suppose this is another Wizard of Oz sort of reveal where the screen is removed and all you see is just one person speaking into a microphone. The wizard comes from kind of … More Behind the Scenes of Mechanical Anime Reviews
I want to go into this first by mentioning that I am not the largest sports anime or manga expert at all. If you want, I can point you to people who trully are experts in this genre. By myself, I’ve only watched a small amount of them compared to the huge surplus of sports … More Sports Anime and the One Year Issue
