A chill place for anime gamers
Ever since I was five years old and watched Star Wars for the first time, I've loved the fantasy/sci-fi epic. I spent countless school nights staying up to watch Luke Skywalker soar through the Death Star trenches, or playing as Cloud Strife and friends to defeat Sephiroth and save the planet. I'd dream of being... Continue Reading →
I first fell in love with Xenoblade when I saw the first game's title screen. It's a shot of the game's legendary sword, the Monado, in an evergreen field on a crisp summer day. Legendary Kingdom Hearts and Street Fighter composer Yoko Shimomura plays a bittersweet piano piece as the wind weaves through diamond-shaped blades... Continue Reading →
As much as I love great mecha anime, I never could get into Gundam. I’d watched a little of the original 1979 series and Gundam Wing on Toonami back of the day, but all the spin-off series, alternate timelines, and convoluted lore made the franchise felt impenetrable for a filthy causal like myself. But Studio... Continue Reading →
Online fandoms have come a long way since the halcyon days of the internet, when the only way to find people with similar interests was to load up a GameFAQs message board on a sluggish dial-up connection. Nowadays, though, all it takes is a quick search on Reddit, Discord, or (RIP) Twitter to find millions... Continue Reading →
Hey y’all, how’s it going? It’s been a while. I want to get back into blogging again. I may not post all that frequently, but I still have a lot of opinions on all the good anime/JRPGs. I also want to write about some of my other interests, such as music and literature, so stay... Continue Reading →
This was supposed to be done by Mother's Day, but I never do anything on time, so why start now? I wanted to do this cute post on my favorite anime moms for a while now, but I realized that way too many moms in anime die before the opening credits. That would make this... Continue Reading →
I’m 100% Shonen trash, which means I love Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. The gorgeously detailed setpieces, unique historical setting, and memorable cast of characters (and Zenitsu) made for one of the most exciting Shonen Jump series in recent memory. I binged the entire manga shortly after finishing the first anime season, which only made... Continue Reading →
This one hurts, y’all. MASSIVE ENDING SPOILERS for the anime, mild manga spoilers ahead I’ve been a huge fan of The Promised Neverland ever since the first season dropped. I was so enamored with the story that I read the entire manga on the Shonen Jump mobile app. I couldn’t wait to see Emma, Ray,... Continue Reading →
Thanks to the wonderful Pinkie for tagging me here! I don’t do a lot of tag posts, but I really liked this one and thought it would be great for Women's History Month. There are a lot of great female characters in animation, who don’t always get the attention and respect they deserve. I wanted... Continue Reading →
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzimiya was all over the anime world in the mid-2000’s. The memetic misadventures of the sociopathic tsundere (who's actually God... I think) captivated fans across the Internet. But the show’s popularity tanked in its second season, due to the infamous “Endless Eight” arc. They literally made the same episode, eight times...
