Exploring the magic of anime and manga.
One show I don’t think I’ve talked about in this blog much is Eizouken. Let’s just get this explanation out of the way first (it’s a question that’s been around all season, so I really want to put it to rest) – eizouken (映像研) is short for eizou kenkyuu doukoukai (映像研究同好会), or the “video...

I'm no cosplay nut, but certain anime have made me rethink my potential for such an art... Since I miss Irina already (she is around, but in a reduced capacity), let's have a discussion about cosplay costumes...outside of Halloween season, because why not. I used to think cosplay was basically impossible, since I can't sew... Continue Reading →
Ever since the last time I checked in with ID: INVADED, stuff has only gotten more layered and confusing. Yes...if you didn't notice, I'm using all-caps for the title now. If you read the katakana under the English in the logo, you'll find the name of the series is actually Ido: Inveideddo, meaning it's meant... Continue Reading →
...not that that's a question anyone would ever ask, but here's the answer anyway. Drifting Dragons has an anime being held back by Netflix (apparently it won't drop until April), but that doesn't stop this series from being popular anyway. Outside the anime, it is a manga series by Taku Kuwabara that features Mika, Takita and... Continue Reading →
The fact of the matter is that Death Note has always been fairly global, but it's never had an existing political figure in it...until now. For the most part, Scott's post on this one-shot (and the things I omitted from my comment on it) are what inspired me to write this post, so mosey on... Continue Reading →
New year, new decade (?), same old posts...If it's not specified, the time period covered in this post is from the 23rd of December 2019 to the 20th of January 2020.Navigation: Other People's Reads | Spellbook Offerings|Current Obsessions|Coming up next...Other People's ReadsIt wouldn't be a round-up post without them. However, since I scour people's archives on... Continue Reading →
Dr Stone is the perfect series for this prompt, no? Hiya again. By now you probably know the drill, but if you’re new around here, I’m commonly known as “Aria” (pseudonym) and this is the Animanga Spellbook. This month’s OWLS topic is “visions”, so while we’re at it, here’s the vision for OWLS: we promote... Continue Reading →
White space? Well, it's not always "white", but that's what you can call it. White space is that...well, space...that's got nothing on it. When learning how to make a basic website years ago, I ended up taking this away as a critical factor for design in general. What's that gotta do with Act-age? I noticed,... Continue Reading →
So, it's time to show off my taste in music (which has shown up in awards and tag posts before, but not as much as it has in this particular capacity). Depending on your own tastes, you might like all or none of them...your call. I decided to pick up Chris Joynson's (Never Argue with... Continue Reading →
