The Promised (Never)land: a Thrilling Plan of Salvation

I’m happy to introduce Gaharet, our newest writer! You may have seen him haunting our comment section, but now you’ll see much more of him and insight on Beneath the Tangles. The eldest of ten siblings who are all avid readers, Gaheret is a is a Catholic lawyer from Spain, too tall for Robin already… Read More The Promised (Never)land: a Thrilling Plan of Salvation

Goblin Slayer and Silenced Hope

There a moment in episode two of Goblin Slayer when the title character describes the horrors of goblins ransacking a village, apparently remembering his own experience: An example would be if your older sister was attacked, tormented, made a plaything, then killed. Let’s say you witnessed all this, from start to finish in hiding as… Read More Goblin Slayer and Silenced Hope

Danganronpa and Divorcing Hope from Theology

Danganronpa proves Chesterton’s assertion that it is a real shame so much bad fiction becomes lost: we have so much to learn from its mistakes!  Now, Danganronpa is not that bad of an anime (I have not played the video game, though the anime wears its origins on its sleeve), but the hero fights against… Read More Danganronpa and Divorcing Hope from Theology

Easter 2017: The Hope of Resurrection

He is risen! If you go to church or are around Christians much today, you’ll likely hear this phrase repeated a lot, followed by “He is risen indeed!” Again and again, we repeat to each other the good news: Jesus Christ, God in flesh, the perfect man, who died on our behalf, has risen from… Read More Easter 2017: The Hope of Resurrection

12 Days of Otaku Christmas, Day 1: Ace Attorney

Major spoilers for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney below! Two silhouettes stand in a boat floating on a foggy lake. One of them pulls a gun on the other. “Merry Christmas,” he says, and squeezes the trigger. Appropriately enough, the final case in Capcom’s original Ace Attorney video game opens the same way it ends—with a… Read More 12 Days of Otaku Christmas, Day 1: Ace Attorney

Lunar Silver Star Story: Wind’s Nocturne Analysis

Music is a big part of my life, as I listen to it for hours every day. Mostly it’s for background purposes, whether at the gym, during prayer and worship, or while reading, writing, or driving. I never realized how important it was to my life until several years ago, nor did I notice that… Read More Lunar Silver Star Story: Wind’s Nocturne Analysis

Annalyn’s Corner: The Cloud of Witnesses in Daiya no Ace

The second season of Daiya no Ace (aka Ace of the Diamond) ended today. And this time, it’s really ending, at least for now, not just switching air dates like it did between the first and second seasons. It’s catching up with its source material, the manga, and it needs to take a break to let the manga get ahead… Read More Annalyn’s Corner: The Cloud of Witnesses in Daiya no Ace

Annalyn’s Corner: Starved for Entertainment

Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu may be the best anime airing this season. The art is beautiful. The characters grab your attention with extreme goofiness or coldness, but as the story unfolds, their complexities begin to show. The background music complements the art and screenplay wonderfully. Rakugo Shinjuu is art about art, story about storytelling, and I… Read More Annalyn’s Corner: Starved for Entertainment

Between the Panels: A Reason to Live (Ch. 1)

Imagine a re-telling of Death Note where Light has a conscience, Ryuk is cute, and those “lucky” few with Shinigami angels over their shoulders participate in the Holy Grail War, a la Fate Stay Night. Imagine no further. It’s a thing. Platinum End, dream duo Tsugumi Ohba’s and Takeshi Obata’s latest brainchild, hit the Jump… Read More Between the Panels: A Reason to Live (Ch. 1)

12 Days of Christmas Anime, Day 4: Death Note

christmas madoka pmmm

Wait… Death Note has a Christmas episode? Well, sort of. There’s presents, lights, a tree, snow, and warm winter coats involved—Oh, and the criminal investigation of the century. With that level of seriousness, you’d think that neither our detective heroes nor our sly villains would take the time to participate in the holiday festivities, but… Read More 12 Days of Christmas Anime, Day 4: Death Note

FYI I may not be around much today—craziness as well have our division Christmas party at Alamo Drafthouse (yay!) but I have to leave it at some point for a conference call (boo!), plus small group Christmas party tonight and my daughter’s spelling bee? What a day! 😆

Instagram post 2192253532396484550_3268845062 It’s amazing how a film can capture a feeling, injecting within us nostalgia for an event we’ve never experienced, in a place we’ve never lived. Miyazaki is a master of making us long for times that have disappeared or which never existed at all, and for a version of “us” that we can hope to be.

Speaking of artists, this Totoro piece is masterful, isn’t it? It conveys that awesome sense of wonder at the heart of Totoro, as well a beauty that is perhaps too rare in the world in which we live. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Instagram post 2190892630980044518_3268845062 [Holly] I think I can say that I have officially broke into my new life-routine as a full-time employee. It does feel like each day zooms 💨 fast though... 🧐
⠀
I am at a stage where I need a more...fruitful self-hobby other than league, but the truth is I don’t think I truly enjoy a lot of things that seem like too much work 😂. I love sporty group activities, but it takes effort to gather a group and set everything up. I guess that’s why league is so enjoyable—cause it’s a group activity but my body is at home 🏠 HAHAHA🙃.
⠀
Btw I wanted to share my first crocheted scarf 🧣, hehe it was a gift for someone special ^^. I didn’t do great on it because it had a lot of holes...but I tried my best teehee. Keep warm everyone~
