First Impression: Grand Blue Dreaming

Iori Kitahara is in an exciting time of life—he is about to start college and to do so, he’s moving to a sea-side town with relatives he hasn’t seen in years.

All Might, Midoriya, and how to go beyond your limits

Resemblances notwithstanding, I promise you that this post is not a rehash of TWWK’s stellar reflection. There are at least four scenes in MHA when All Might or Midoriya use One for All and go beyond their full power. Of course, Plus Ultra is one of the series’ catch-phrases, so it’s natural that we’d see… Read More All Might, Midoriya, and how to go beyond your limits

Lynna’s Journey (Entry #2): Anime vs Books vs Me

Lynna’s Journey will be posted on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month this summer. When I was 11, I knew nothing of anime. I just loved books. I was home schooled at the time, so my mother would sometimes have to actually physically separate me from my books in order for me to… Read More Lynna’s Journey (Entry #2): Anime vs Books vs Me

First Impression: Working Buddies! 2!

Working Buddies! 2! (Hataraku Onii-san! No 2!) is the long awaited second season of Working Buddies. And by long awaited, I mean I’m probably the only one super hyped about it. Each episode of this short form series is 4 minutes long and follows two anthropomorphic cats doing odd jobs during college. Our lead cats are a… Read More First Impression: Working Buddies! 2!

Finishing FMAB: Episodes 54 and 55

A few weeks ago, I asked the Beneath the Tangles community to choose an anime for me to watch this summer out of a group that I’ve been meaning to watch or which I had begun, but hadn’t finished. There were a few popular choices, but I’ve honed in on the one that I most… Read More Finishing FMAB: Episodes 54 and 55
