Out of all the great films I have seen over the last 20 months. Out of all the things I could write about I decided to pen a new era in my blog on a current (at the time) in theaters pg-13 film about a yandere android. Wait can I apply weeb talk to westernContinue reading “Creepy Robot Replaces Parents: M3GAN”

Experiencing Japanese Poems Through Anime: Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop
Lights in the summer nightmake a false startIn the evening sunset Haikus are literary icons. Japanese poems that follow the simple rule 5 7 5, three lines, 17 syllables. But the thing they never really teach in American English class is how broadly fantastic these poems can be in their native language. Within the JapaneseContinue reading “Experiencing Japanese Poems Through Anime: Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop”
Burn The Witch
Have you ever sat down, opened a book, or turned on the TV only to immediately think “holy crap, this is really fucking cool” to whatever form of media you were watching? The sound, world, style, clothes, characters, just all of it screams “this is so dope!” It is rare for me to get thisContinue reading “Burn The Witch”
Demon Slayer: Mugen Train
It was around 2009 when I first recall getting into the medium of anime. It was Bleach, specifically Rukia that turned my curiosity into a hobby that would last over a decade. Anime in the US was in a weird spot during that time, it was still seen as a bit of a weird concept,Continue reading “Demon Slayer: Mugen Train”
Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya: Vow in the Snow
Spoilers Marked It’s no secret I’m a rather large fan of the Fate series, more so that Prisma Illya branch. Because of this, I am no stranger to canon film placed somewhat randomly within a season. Movies that carry on after the completion of a season sometimes segways into another. A good example of thisContinue reading “Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya: Vow in the Snow”
The Garden of Words.
Spoiler Free Using a sleepy Saturday afternoon I decided to watch a rather short film written and directed by Makoto Shinkai. Keeping true to his animation weather-heavy style, it turned out to be one of the more interesting takes I have seen from him. What starts out as a seeming romanceish film about a boyContinue reading “The Garden of Words.”
A Silent Voice
Spoiler Free When it comes to modern anime films there are a few that come to mind, mostly ones under the direction of Shinkai, Makoto. Films like Your Name or Weathering With You, but one animated tale that was released in 2016 under the fantastic animation of Kyoto Animation, direction of Yamada, Naoko and originallyContinue reading “A Silent Voice”
Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl
Minor Spoilers There are few works out there that have captured my heart like the Bunny Girl Senpai series. A tale of hilarious banter, a main that mirrors me a little too much, and quite literally one of the best waifus in history. So naturally, there would come a time where I would carry onContinue reading “Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl”
5 Centimeters Per Second
There are movies, then there are Shinkai, Makoto movies. Vibrant and brilliant takes that involve love, tragedy, and usually a supernatural element. However, that last bit doesn’t ring true for the 2007 film 5 Centimeters Per Second. A wonderful, mature tale of two crossed lovers who, under the victim of circumstance can not be together.Continue reading “5 Centimeters Per Second”
Your Name
Spoilers Not so long ago I ended up watching my first ever Shinkai, Makoto film, Weathering With You. And being floored by the beautiful scenes, the perfect shots, and the overall world breathing to life I was even more pumped to watch his most critically acclaimed one. A romance that jumps through time and spaceContinue reading “Your Name”
