Asuperu Kanojo: A Bittersweet Manga About A Girl With Asperger’s Syndrome

Trigger Warning: There will be discussion of heavy topics such as self-harm, depression, child abuse and the usual uncomfortable topics that have to be brought up when mental health is discussed. Please be warned. I’ve talked about mental health at GREAT length before on this blog. My Doki Doki Psychology Club post is probably my most researched article on this blog, and I was very … Continue reading Asuperu Kanojo: A Bittersweet Manga About A Girl With Asperger’s Syndrome

In Defense Of Anime And Manga Piracy

With the recent crackdown on Kissanime, and possibly other sites, I wanted to put my thoughts on piracy out there as somebody from a country with almost no legal channels to watch anime easily. Full disclosure, Kissanime sucks and I hate it, because better piracy sites exist that aren’t as greedy. If and when I can support something, I always do. However, the truth of … Continue reading In Defense Of Anime And Manga Piracy

[Analysis] Anzu’s Journey from Rival to Street Rat to Best Girl

(Hinamatsuri just ended their manga run a while ago. Here’s a post of me talking about my favorite character, Anzu.) I’m sure all of you who follow me know about my love for Anzu at this point. She started out as just an annoying side character/rival and quickly grew to be the focus of the best character arc in the anime! Today, I’ll be talking … Continue reading [Analysis] Anzu’s Journey from Rival to Street Rat to Best Girl

The Immaturity Of Romance Anime

Isn’t it weird how so many romcoms end on the confession? If we’re lucky,we might even get a *gasp* time skip to show them with a happy family. What is it with the obsession of mangakas with the chase part of romance but borderline disinterest in developing things PAST the confession? Today, let’s talk about that. Man, I wish I had a consistent schedule like … Continue reading The Immaturity Of Romance Anime

Netflix Movie Review – Next Gen Is Just Better Big Hero 6

Okay, hear me out. First of all, I have a mixed opinion of Big Hero 6. I liked it a LOT, and Baymax is one of the most adorable characters to come out in recent memory, but the story itself wasn’t that good, in my opinion. It was a pretty typical movie that got carried hard by it’s stellar character design and interesting setting of … Continue reading Netflix Movie Review – Next Gen Is Just Better Big Hero 6

Why The Best Girl Always Loses [Remastered]

[Man, I sure peaked early, huh? I’ve been doing a lot of these remastered reposts lately. My views on anime and manga have changed a lot since the time I wrote theses posts. With a “mature” perspective, I want to talk about my old points and see if they still hold up for me or not.]As always, Future Lumi in bold. I think I’m always … Continue reading Why The Best Girl Always Loses [Remastered]

Making Anime Titles Absurdly Long Shouldn’t Be Hard, But I Have Trouble Anyway – In Another World!

Shallow Dives, I don’t know who you are, but I am sold on this tag idea and have dragged me out of my hiatus for a bit. No, I am NOT waiting to be tagged. Apologies for breaking the rules, lol. Light Novel titles being the way they are may be understandable, but that doesn’t make it any less ridiculous. Before we get into clickbaiting … Continue reading Making Anime Titles Absurdly Long Shouldn’t Be Hard, But I Have Trouble Anyway – In Another World!

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! – First Impressions

It’s time for me to admit something, I really don’t watch anime seasonally. I don’t have an excuse or anything, I just happen to not have any time for watching stuff. Except Eizouken, which has been a treat! One of the few times I decide to binge anime is for two reasons: I’m sick, or I find it hilarious and can’t stop watching because it’s … Continue reading Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! – First Impressions

Friday Funsies – MAL’s Most Popular Anime From #50 to #45 (I’m doing lists, guys, send help)

In a FRUITLESS attempt to bring some life to this blog, I’m going to be doing this thing where I talk about popular anime as of, uh, current year and month of January 2020. This is gonna be real messy and real raw thoughts, so if you’re not into that, read on anyway because I don’t care, you need differing opinions in life. Anyways, I’m … Continue reading Friday Funsies – MAL’s Most Popular Anime From #50 to #45 (I’m doing lists, guys, send help)
