Although I have no wish to continue to refer to this show again ever since they cut Iwai’s hair, here is a small tidbit of my thoughts since they showed her with long hair again this week’s episode. There’s just something that gets me about their names. The premise is ridiculous. The Killing Goods are [...]The post Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge: Name-calling appeared first on .

I’m fascinated that the fact that Hibiki Kuze appears something akin to a deity in this episode. Anime frequently refers to a character that is the “special one”. Usually, this is the protagonist, or an enemy that holds special powers. With certain characteristics, this special character sets themselves above the rest with the special card(s) [...]The post Devil Survivor 2: Hibiki, a king or a deity? appeared first on .

Nothing about Kiri (切 cutting) Haimura and his crazy obsession with hair comes off as odd at all in this episode. Getting tied up over one’s hair is the least of a girl’s problems when someone brings a pair of scissors around with them at all times. I have to say, my expectations were thoroughly dashed and [...]The post Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge (Digest) Episode 1: Sometimes with hair, I get a little naughty. appeared first on .

But fear not, Ganbatte’s spirit will live on! Albeit with a shorter yet hopefully still easy-to-remember URL. I wish I could say more, … Read More →

I feel like taking a new approach to my posts. Doing editorials is fine and all, but I want to head back to my roots. Summary:  INFERNNNNN KOPPUUUU does stuff while trying to fight against MISTAAAHHH JAAAJIIII. In Episodes 1-13, he does a lot of stuff. Thoughts: Best anime of the year 2013, every year. I … Read More →

She wanted to feel his hand rest upon her head, if not only for a moment. Was she only just an older sister to him? She thought. Just an older sister? Was Ei-kun…really fine with it? She pushed Ei-kun’s hand away from her and ran. Tears welled up inside her eyes. She couldn’t bear the [...]
