As inspired by a small rant I had in Scott's comment section. You know what I want? An anime about coding and/or hacking. Not Hollywood hacking, like Akudama Drive's Hacker does (warning: TV Tropes link)...a faithful version of it. I know, I know...no Japanese anime studio is ever going to stumble across a blog in...

A Magical 2020
Like 2019, I'll leave a number at the end of the name of the work to indicate which month I finished each entry in. However, this time I put // to indicate which ones are tied and which are not (i.e. anything grouped together with a "(tie)" should have the same score). Normally I would... Continue Reading →
Ode to Anime Studios – Doga Kobo
Welp, we’re getting to the more questionable and obscure studios at this point… …I think most of the studios after this one are really controversial studios (Gonzo, A-1), studios I didn’t really know how to tackle (JC Staff, Brain’s Base) or fairly new studios which only get their attention from the sakuga community (Orange, Colorido)....

There's also a criterion involving picking a 90/9-rated anime from another user (see 11 below), so if anyone... Continue Reading →
The Importance of Nene in New Game! (TBR/W post)
After much hyping up, let's get this series of posts started. Welp, here’s where I’m at with TBR/W posts, using the updated list from this post. I think Shiki might disappear from Crunchyroll at the end of June, so I’ll prioritise that and then get back to these. Makai Ouji: Devils and Realist Amagi Brilliant... Continue Reading →
That Backlog’s Just Getting Bigger…(TBR/W Tag)
The painful truth is right there in the title! Since Irina offered the TBR/W tag to anyone who wanted it, I took it. Unfortunately, that left me with the conundrum of which name to pick - choose "Aria" and make it too short, or hack the number off "MagicConan14" and make it too long? For the... Continue Reading →
