Exploring the magic of anime and manga.
Another delayed milestone. Part 1 of the saga here. After suddenly having to write most of the 12 Days of Aniblogging in advance, Aria was pretty tired of writing...but there was still work to do. Specifically, a skipped milestone last month meant that she had to look at the Spellbook's stats for the new year.... Continue Reading →
OWLS is fun, exactly as I thought it would be, but it was also pretty clear when I bent prompts to things I wanted to write about... Here's the drill - I'll open with the more usual OWLS content and then cap it off with the first list of the 12 Days. Basically, all you... Continue Reading →
Scott's comment on this 100 Word Anime post made me want to put my own take on things into words. Sometimes I write a post from scratch into the WordPress editor and sometimes I'll have a pre-existing idea ready to go, but I like to have 3 paragraphs' worth of ideas to elaborate on (hence...

This is a bit off course for me, since I shy away from doing reviews in the first place. Jenn's post on reviews made me think - is a number rating (or a letter rating from A+ to E-, or even an F-) to end a review really necessary? The standard practice is that yes, you... Continue Reading →
If you watch a first episode because somebody else told you to, does that then wreck your first impression of a show? Zeria mentions here "[a]ll too often I hear that anime bloggers say they don't watch YouTube videos".
