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

Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 13 (Season Finale): Is Your Heart Shining?

So here we are at the last episode of Love Live! Sunshine!!, and what a ride it has been. This final episode is little more than a quick wrap-up to this season, one that puts the story at a good stopping point while leaving plenty of room for a continuation. The plot is pretty thin here,… Read More Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 13 (Season Finale): Is Your Heart Shining?

Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 11: Unbalanced Love

Love Live! Sunshine!! has its long-awaited You episode. With Riko officially gone to her piano competition (and props to the show for not finding some excuse to bring her back, I guess; no taking the easy way here), You is chosen to replace her as the co-center with Chika for their Love Live qualifier performance. The… Read More Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 11: Unbalanced Love

Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 9: Say Anything

One thing I like about Love Live! Sunshine!!, especially episode 8, was how the drama focused on the girls’ attempts to achieve something and the trials they faced because of that. It is something well-suited to idol anime in particular, since idol activities combine an artistic element and a physical, sports-like element, as well as often… Read More Love Live! Sunshine!!

Orange Episode 9: Behind the Scenes

Up until recently, Naho was the main executor of all every plan to save Kakeru, despite being one of the least decisive characters. But now that all her other friends have banded together, it gives them an opportunity to manipulate events without either Kakeru or Naho’s knowledge, leading to some interesting results.

Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 8: Loveless World

Wow. This might be the most emotional episode I have seen from either Love Live series. True to the foreshadowing from the last episode, things do not go well for Aqours in Tokyo; however, things go even worse than I had imagined. That said, this failure is arguably exactly what this series needed in order to… Read More Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 8: Loveless World

Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 7: Trouble Brewing in Tokyo

I do not have a lot to specifically talk about this week, because this week’s episode is largely setup. With the success of Aqours’s latest PV, the School Idol Association invites the group to Tokyo to perform at a special event. It is an opportunity the group naturally jumps at, being both a chance to further… Read More Love Live! Sunshine!! Ep. 7: Trouble Brewing in Tokyo

Suletta Mercury, Part I: Stuck in the OT In part Suletta Mercury, Part I: Stuck in the OT

In part one of her meditation on Suletta Mercury, @c_1air_3 explains how the pilot misses the mark when it comes to relationships—and how we might be doing the same when it comes to our own with the Creator. Here's a sample of the article, which you can read in full on beneaththetangles.com:

"The reality is that we still often act a lot like the ancient Israelites—and not all that differently from Suletta—in our interactions with God. It seems easier, after all, to go about the life of faith as if it were a checklist of to-dos (and not to-dos); it’s more efficient to let religious leaders and voices of wisdom and authority in our life tell us what to do and define things for us, as the Israelites wanted Moses to do, and as Suletta does with her contracts, letting them determine for her who will be number one in her life. We too instrumentalize our relationship with God, like when we equate having daily 'quiet time' or hitting up church on a Sunday and maybe even mid-week small group, with living the life of faith. These things are great, and they can lead us into deeper encounter with God, but they can also easily turn into a checklist that isn’t actually accomplishing what we think it is..."

QOTD: What's your favorite cheat meal? I'm a big pizza guy haha. I normally don't crave pizza too much but when I do I definitely overeat haha.

TRAILER: My Happy Marriage Premiering in July, @y TRAILER: My Happy Marriage

Premiering in July, @yenpress describes the light novels on which this anime is being adapted as such:

Born to a noble family, Miyo is raised by her abusive stepmother and married off to Kiyoka, a soldier so heartless his prior fiancées fled within three days into their engagement. With no home to return to, Miyo slowly starts to open her heart to her cold and pale husband-to-be, despite their rocky introduction... This might just be her chance at finding true love and happiness.

[twwk] This episode was so nicely structured. Inst [twwk] This episode was so nicely structured. Instead of being oriented around small gags, it was set up for the payoff in this scene—from senpai considering calling Nagatoro "Hayase" early in the episode to even him learning her name and visiting her while she was sick in the previous one. Excellent stuff.

QOTD: Have you ever had rice congee or rice porridge? In Korean culture, it's connected to warm feelings about home as the dish your mom makes when you're sick. Anime has taught me that its likely the same in Japanese culture.
