Exploring the magic of anime and manga.
I "saw the future"...in one way of speaking. After wandering around AniChart for a while, I came across a summer 2019 video I'd never seen before...I've put it down below so you can watch it too. It's only 27 minutes with skippable credits at the end and no OP, so it shouldn't be too harsh... Continue Reading →
To be honest with you, I've been working on a project in secret... ...it's a rewatch project; that is, checking out some of the things on my favourites list to see if they do hold up on future watching, as all good works should. (However, the project's not as official as the others which have... Continue Reading →
Astra is good, y'all. Y'know how I said I wasn't keeping track of where this season was going? I guess the only real way to drive it home was to watch the first and the final episodes back to back, a bit of suffering specifically conferred upon me by the anime club (because somehow, I...

For a short-episode show that I've thrown on to my fall 2019 plan to watch list out of sheer lack of not having any good short-ep shows this year, this seems pretty good.

Now here's something that's right down my alley: a historical story based on a novel, with a lotta action and big helpings of blood to go with it (plus the occasional more mature scene to go with...

After replying to Jerem’s post, it made me think about the various factors that change a person’s anime watching habits… I still love anime with as much passion as I did when I first started watching, but time changes a lot of things. First of all, while people grow up with anime, their “anime watching... Continue Reading →
Regardless of what you think about fan translations, the problem with them is that they lay down the foundation for weird things to happen… The answer to this Answerman (specifically “…30-page-long snail-mailed hate screeds in broken English (angry about subtitle translation choices not matching that of fansubs, natch)…”) made me think about how fansubs are...

I’m trying out a slightly different type of post format by taking a question and answering it with facts (this one is, quite obviously, centred around the question, “What’s up with the Budokan in anime, anyway?”), so bear with me if this doesn’t seem to be as good as usual… The title quote comes from...
