Sakura’s Authentic Face

Episode four of Cardcaptor Sakura is basically a lesson in how to be Asian. Especially within the first five minutes, we get scene after scene of characters putting on a face, acting strong, as if they’re fine with a situation when inside, they’re really not. Okay, granted, that’s not just an Asian thing, but it… Read More Sakura’s Authentic Face

First Impression: Recovery of an MMO Junkie

When this new season of anime began, I was looking forward to several series, but this one didn’t pop up on my radar.

First Impressions: Tsukipro The Animation

I have a weakness for music anime. I also like my anime characters to look something like real human beings, and to act like them as well.
