What I watched in April 2018 (Recommendations and Reviews for Anime and Manga)

Welcome to the NHK I watched this show while on a break from school and I felt a little bit like my life reflected it. During the holidays everything slows down to a halt, and for some reason even though everyone has way more time everything gets cancelled so there’s not as much to do! …

Do You Know All The Deres?

I've been an anime fan for a fairly long time, so surely I know what all the deres are? Nope! Turns out there are so many more than you think, a lot of which I've never heard of before. So hopefully you'll learn some new things! Tell me if you do! And if you don't …

Lupin III Part 5 Ep 1 – The Chase Is On!

Thanks again to Zainou for recommending this show for me. It's a great show and you can jump on straight away here without seeing the million other episodes of the show! I think the only way I see myself not liking the show is that the episodes all look fairly similar, I wouldn't be so …

I PASSED MY CHINESE TEST!

You saw the title, I'm now officially fluent in Chinese because I passed an official test! It was the YTC/HSK Level one which just about covers the basics of the language. From the sounds of it you're meant to spend about a year studying it but I was able to binge it in the last …

Lupin The Third 2015 Ep 1 – A Thrilling Fight For The Crown!

The thanks for this post goes to Zainou who recommended I watch season 1 of the new Lupin season. Despite the fact that there are many, many episodes to this series it's all very episodic so he recommended I watch ep 1 of 2015 or three other films, one of which I couldn't find and the …

Legend of the Galactic Heroes Season 2 – Understated and Epic

Here is my post on season 1 where I stupidly pretended that I had seen the whole thing. I have not deliberately put the show on hold between that post and this one but it just took a while for reasons I will explain! Legend of the Galactic heroes (lotgh) does not feel like the …

Ruroni Kenshin is Back… Oh Dear.

Something that shocked me recently was learning that Ruroni Kenshin is going to be published again, and it's concerning to say the least. (warnings for disturbing, uncomfortable content) Nobuhiro Watsuki was arrested for possession of around 100 DVD's of child porn. That was all I knew about it and it was very sad and terrible to …

Darling in the franXX – Controversy Only Makes Me Want to Watch it More!

Now I have no idea what this drama is, just that everyone seems to be talking about it and I have to back out of a lot of posts since I want to wait until the show is mostly over before finishing it so that I can avoid spoilers. You could say this post is …

It’s Difficult to Love an Otaku ep 1 – It’s Difficult to Love This Show

It's no secret that I don't like seasonal anime, however it seems ridiculous to state that without justifying it in posts like these. And through doing this I might just prove myself wrong so there's that as well! First impressions are huge when I watch a show. Honestly being made by A-1 Pictures and having …

A Lovely Blog Award Q&A!

I've been nominated again for an award, this time by Arthfis, not to be confused with ArtFish which is what I always thought it was originally. My method of writing these awards posts is that I write them as soon as I get them and then schedule them for later on. This means I've not …

Adventures of the Khajiit – The Forsworn Conspiracy

I recently got The Elder Scrolls 5 Skyrim, and even though I have 200+ hours on it already through other consoles I still find/ revisit quests that are so interesting to me that I just have to write about them, because I want to tell people. Also don't worry, the ADB will still continue, this …

Top Ten Reasons Why Anime Sucks Comment Comeback

Ages ago I released a post talking about how anime is the worst thing ever created, giving ten reasons why. Well that post went low level semi-viral and I have some comments to reply too! You really need to read the original to understand this so I will link it here. There are also about …
