Today’s Friday and chances are you love anime. You may not be “in love” with anime, and you may not have an extra toothbrush at its apartment, but you’re probably having a “thing” with anime.
I personally love it. I love the way anime looks, sounds and how it makes me feel. It has a way [...]
I’ve had bad luck with anime lately. I haven’t seen many series, or movies for that matter, in the past few months which make me sit up and pay attention. The anime I have seen have been disappointing and generally a waste of my time. Some were merely boring, some were bad in terms of [...]
After watching two volumes of a highly melancholy, depressing anime, I’ve come to the conclusion some things just shouldn’t be made into anime, let alone get twenty six episodes.
