Did you know? If you want to be saved from this life, saved from having to battle witches as a magical girl, given back the life you traded in exchange for the wish which Kyubey granted you, you must go to Kamihama City!

Happy New Year! We are in 2020—can you believe it? Oh how the years fly by! But we don’t want to let this one go too quickly, at least not without using the year itself as a way of renewing focus for both you and ourselves. And so throughout 2020, we’ll be focusing on a… Read More 20/20 in 2020: Setting Our Vision on Christ
When Asahi Azumane is first introduced in Haikyuu, it’s not as a volleyball player. Formerly their ace, the player most responsible for making the big spikes which ignite the team’s offense, Asahi stopped attending Karusuno’s practices after being thoroughly denied, over and over, in a recent loss to Date Tech.

Day 8: Feast Tradition is important. It helps bind us together while connecting us to past wisdom, memories, and events. But sometimes, breaking tradition is meaningful, too. If you celebrate Christmas, you probably have traditions in your family, and perhaps more than you realize (feel free to share some of your traditions below). We have… Read More 12 Days of Christmas Anime: Laid-Back Camp
Day 4: Light I’m not up to date on Dr. Stone. Actually, it would be more accurate to say that all-season long, I cherry-picked episodes of the series. As my family watches through it, I sometimes tune in and sometimes I don’t. I even occasionally only watch portions of an episode, which is what I… Read More 12 Days of Christmas Anime: Dr. Stone

Day 2: Bloom Episode 10 of After School Dice Club, appropriately titled, “”Happy Holy Night,” is a clever episode, using two board games, Ladies and Gentleman and Blokus, to explain the true meaning of Christmas: family and shopping.
