Beneath the Tangles

connecting anime and christianity in genuine community

Author: Murasaki Lynna

Stories have always fascinated Lynna, whether they are told in books, anime, music, or doodles in the margins of her accounting homework. She hails from Canada, and when she isn’t busy with life or obsessing over some anime or webcomic, she is working on writing her own stories, so that she might one day unleash them upon the world.

ACCA: The Effects of Isolation

It’s hard to trust people when everyone is only trying to fit into a collective. If people change when they are around others, how is anyone supposed to know who anyone else really is? Because of their lack of trust, they all keep their true thoughts and opinions to themselves. But this only puts them… Read More ACCA: The Effects of Isolation

ACCA: Truth Never Hides Forever

We live in a complicated world where truth is often uncomfortable and so everyone is always trying to hide it. But such efforts are often only temporary, and sooner or later the truth is going to come to light. I am so glad that we’ve finally come to the point in ACCA where the truth… Read More ACCA: Truth Never Hides Forever

ACCA: The Slow Revelation

It’s difficult to tell a good story with a slow pace. It’s even harder when life itself feels like an overly busy slow-paced story where the major events are few and far between, and the only upside is that there’s plenty of delicious bread. But sometimes those moments that seem anticlimactic are the catalysts for… Read More ACCA: The Slow Revelation

ACCA: A Person Caught Up In Things

One of the strongest feelings I get while watching ACCA is that none of this can last. The characters are living relatively peacefully for now, but eventually the sinister plots will come to light and everything will turn sideways. None of that has happened yet, though, and even though we don’t know the true extent… Read More ACCA: A Person Caught Up In Things

ACCA: A Hidden Spark

For all the talk of uprisings in ACCA, what we’ve seen of Dowa kingdom has been very peaceful and fortunate. Certainly, there is a sense of unease, and we know there are greater events stirring behind the scenes, but the nation seems to be doing well overall. But in this time of tranquility, the people… Read More ACCA: A Hidden Spark

ACCA: The Search for Sincerity

It is easy to be yourself until you have a reason not to. As soon as the scene changes and our true feelings are unacceptable, we’re often more than willing to put on another face or two. Situations become more difficult and confusing, but we’ll pretend we know what we’re doing and trust the people… Read More ACCA: The Search for Sincerity

ACCA: Rising Against the Unseen

Sometimes I’ll decide whether I like a show or not before I’ve seen more than a single episode. The scenes, the characters, and initial dialogue all lend an impression of what sort of story lies ahead. But sometimes I push on, and am surprised. Even after experiencing so many stories, I still can’t always know… Read More ACCA: Rising Against the Unseen
