Exploring the magic of anime and manga.
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 →
As I was writing up my summer 2019 prediction post, I wrote a good 1500 - 2000 words and then cut a third of it because I was going on about shows I was uncertain about. However, there's one summer anime I really have a weird relationship with... ...and that's O Maidens in Your Savage... 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...

With Kimetsu no Yaiba airing right now, it seems like a good time to write about ufotable. The interesting thing is that I’ve always pronounced the studio’s name “u-fot-able”, but it should be (according to the katakana) pronounced “yu-fo-table”…not that it makes much of a difference from pronouncing each of the letters in “UFO” separately,...

Normally I wouldn't do a mid-season check-in, but I've come to realise I don't really know what I love this season anymore since I just watched a few weeks' worth of anime over the past few days... After all my lamenting of being behind in this Demon Slayer collab post, the side effects are starting to... Continue Reading →
Hello, friendos. I didn’t actually finish watching the series I picked on time (everything happened at once because I decided to take on a timed AniList watching challenge and started to neglect other stuff), but I’ll do what I can based on what I know. If you’re new to the whole OWLS thing, welcome. This... Continue Reading →
