All Aspects of Life are Rooted in Style
Its no secret that I love watching anime. I have my go-to list that I rewatch from time to time. Sadly, I only own a small percentage of hard copies (DVD/Blu-ray) from my favorite shows and movies. As a result, I streamed a majority of my favorites with apps like Hulu and PeacockTV. Lately, I've... Continue Reading →
After rewatching Your Lie in April, I was in the mood for a lighthearted RomCom. But what to watch? If your familiar with Your Lie in April, you may understand why I needed something adorably funny to stop the tears. Don't get me started with My Hero Academia Season Six. The best use of a...

Shojo Anime is one of my favorite genres. Many are based of amazing mangas and light novels. Although they have plenty of source material, there compressed into one season, or canceled abruptly. On top of that, I prefer anime dubbed in English over subtitles. In the anime production world, domestic (Japanese) viewership holds more weight... Continue Reading →
Updated March 25, 2023 One friend can change your lifeUnknown This morning, I was hunting for love quotes for a Valentine's Day inspired post. Yes, it's December, but inspiration is a funny thing. You've gotta strike while the iron is hot. The quote above reminded me of Horimiya, an anime. "Popular Hori and outcast Miyamura... Continue Reading →
Aggretsuko is on the brain. Retsuko and the gang's Final Season will release February 2023. That's only a few months away. Since I follow Aggretsuko, I see all kinds of Motivational Memes provided by Sanrio Co. In a way, it's actually Motivational Meme Monday. Christmas and New Year's Day is just around the river bend.... Continue Reading →
I know Teen Titans Go! (TTG!) gets a lot of hate. For starters, Teen Titans Go! is more about shenanigans than fighting crime. Plus, the show dominates Cartoon Networks cable line up hourly. Many shows with compelling plots and characters are thrown to the wayside for TTG!. I'll admit, I was one of those people... Continue Reading →
Although I love reading, anime is my typical gateway to manga. Meaning, I fall in love with an anime and one of two things happen. One, the studio won't make another season (even thought there is plenty of source material). Two, I don't feel like waiting for the next season. I must know what happens... Continue Reading →
"Retsuko is a 25 year old office girl in corporate Japan. The series starts with an optimist red panda ready to take on the world. The mood immediately shifts to an exhausted red panda using self soothing exercises to summon the strength to get out of bed. Some of this stems from the office culture... Continue Reading →
I love watching and listening to anime opening songs. The animation paired with a moving score is beautiful to me. Even if the anime is dubbed, the intro is usually sung in Japanese. I don't have a problem with this, because emotions go beyond language. If an American singer can't invoke the same emotion and... Continue Reading →
So, whose Nanami and why am I talking about her clothes? She's a manga and anime character in Kamisama Kiss. Her full name is Momozono Nanami. (in Japanese culture, the family surname comes before the individual's name). Her father has a gambling problem that leads to eviction and abandonment. At the age of seventeen, Nanami...
