Reviews From Anime to Board Games, and More!
Silver Spoon is about a boy named Hachiken who doesn’t really know what he wants to do with himself. In middle school he was pushed to perform at the top of his class by his parents, and as a result, lost himself in the process. Now in high school, he has chosen to enroll in a school as far away as possible. The problem? A city kid now living the farming lifestyle isn’t easy!

When it comes to Boogiepop, my relationship with the franchise is a more complicated one. Very rarely do I have any real knowledge of the source material, and in turn, does that impact my watching. Further more, it is even more rare for me to have seen multiple adaptations of said work. This is the case with Boogiepop Never Laughs which has lead to an obvious question, so what is even worth engaging with here?

We’ve all watched a TV show, film, or anime where somebody dies and then, as if by magic, it begins to rain. It’s a tried and true cliché that can be utilized to brilliant effect, or come off as incredibly corny depending on the context. Join me as I explore three examples of rain scenes in anime. One superb, one interesting, and one just plain bad. The shows I’ll be using for my examples are: Akame ga Kill, Love, Election and Chocolate, and finally, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.

The original idea for this review was to discusses why you shouldn’t always judge a book, or in this case, anime by its cover and branch out into new territory if you are one of those folks who watches only one or two genres. Unfortunately, that version of the review came out poorly and fairly condescending so rather than make the entire review about that, it’ll just be a part of it with the main focuses being why Ouran High School Host Club is well worth your time.

Should you need the schedule, it is provided. Just a few more of these to go. Today I talk about the “most badass scene from any anime character” as it says there. Another entry where I break my own rules. I’m going to talk about FMA: Brotherhood again. I bet you can even guess the moment too. Light spoilers, if that matters to you. Continue reading “The 30 Day Anime Challenge Day 27 – The Most Badass Scene in Anime”
As per the norm, here’s the schedule. These weird questions always give me the most trouble. I mean, who sits and actively thinks about this stuff on the regular? I’m sure way more than I think but I certainly do not. For me, this question makes me immediately think of sentient things which could overlap with some of the other questions. Ug, I’m just over thinking it! Ok, eenie, meenie, miney, that one. Continue reading “The 30 Day Anime Challenge Day 22 – Another Weird Question”
Today I felt like talking about my desktop backgrounds and my thought process behind how and why I choose the ones I have. This article is a good way to get to know me some more and an opportunity for folks to share some cool images with each other. This isn’t really meant to be in-depth or anything, just for fun. I know this is something fairly atypical of me but I hope you’ll indulge me a bit and enjoy 🙂 Continue reading “Taking a Look at my Desktop Backgrounds”
