Newman’s Nook: You. Me. Same.

Sarazanmai continues to tackle complicated issues of desire and lust with gorgeous visuals, kappas, and of course, butts. In my first piece on the series, I spoke about secret revelations. This time I want to speak about two of our leads—Kazuki and Toi. Warning: Spoilers from the first five episodes will follow. Kazuki gives the… Read More Newman’s Nook: You. Me. Same.

Becoming Yukines: Regalias and the Path From Sinner to Saint

My wife and I are both watching Noragami right now: she’s watching season one and I’m keeping up with season two. We’re roughly around the same point of each season, around episode eight, as I glance at what my wife is viewing (basically Yukine being super spoiled and almost destroying Yato), I’m getting a good… Read More Becoming Yukines: Regalias and the Path From Sinner to Saint

Saving Lives: The Impact of Truth on Charlotte’s Nao Tomori

I had a conversation with a college guy from my church this past week.  We talked about how important it is to be straight with people inside and outside of the congregation.  Too often with the latter, we’re guilty of “playing church,” rather than truly loving our brothers and sisters in Christ with the harshness… Read More Saving Lives: The Impact of Truth on Charlotte’s Nao Tomori

Kanon: Rising to Life

As much as I enjoy Clannad (I’ve written more than a half-dozen articles on the series), it’s not my favorite Key anime. My very favorite series of theirs, and one my favorites period, is Kanon.  As probably is the case for a lot of you and your top series, it’s difficult for me to explain… Read More Kanon: Rising to Life

Rewrite’s Biblical Meta-Narrative

This past week, we have spent a lot of time focusing on Key, particularly Rewrite. Hopefully you had the chance to check out Kaze’s four part summation and commentary on the visual novel. His approach took each and every section of the story and broke it down into individual parallels into Christian living, but I… Read More Rewrite’s Biblical Meta-Narrative

Rewrite Part 3: Terra, the Path of Salvation

At the start of Terra, a teenage Kotarou and his family have recently moved to Kazamatsuri. His parents work at Martel, a part of Gaia. His neighbor’s family has a very young girl by the name of Kotori (!?). His parents attended Gaia’s meetings, but Kotarou spent his time hunting UMAs, which were actually familiars.… Read More Rewrite Part 3: Terra, the Path of Salvation

Air: New in Light of the Old

This article does NOT spoil Air’s story. If you are familiar with Air, it is probably because of Kyoto Animation’s popular anime adaptation of 2005. If you’re really a nerd like me, perhaps you even know of the Air film adaptation of the same year by Toei Animation (and its gorgeous bonus soundtrack by the… Read More Air: New in Light of the Old

[twwk] Shikimori…Saber…Utena…can you think of any other strong, protective women in anime?
[twwk] My former pastor actually bought me the Gundam shirt I’m wearing in this photo on a trip he took. 😆
[joseph] I thought this was a weird way to end the season but it was still a great episode! Technically it's not done so it passes haha. Looking forward to the next cour~
There are three types of people—which are you?
