Spoilers Apathy is a hell of a thing. When I say that I don’t mean it in the sense of aloof indifference. I am more referring to the complete disinterest in any things. It kind of reminds me of a part from David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest where a psychiatric patient is being interviewed aboutContinue reading “I Do Love Vampires: Call Of The Night”

Reflecting On Otaku Culture
Recently I read a review about a laid-back, chill anime Super Cub written by AK here. Though I have not personally seen the show, the cute, laid-back girl does pleasant things.
