Just in time for St. Valentine this year, I’ve been rewatching Toradora with my teen siblings and have found that my appreciation of it has only grown. I like its summer night skies and its dark winter, its bittersweet songs, the red or golden evenings at the school or near the river. The brilliant, casual… Read More The Code of Kushieda
Today’s post is from a former staff member, Kaze, who you’ll remember playing a vital role on Beneath the Tangles for a number of years. We’re blessed to have him still drop by from time to time, while also contributing to his own blog, Nanaca Sakura.

This weekend, I found Zombie-Loan on Crunchyroll. I loved it about five years ago, so I decided to see what I’d think of it now. As expected, I’m no longer a fan. I’ll knock my rating for it down at least 25% by the time I finish re-watching. And yet, there are some nuggets of truth to… Read More Annalyn’s Corner: Living like a Zombie

Episode one of Plastic Memories had me hooked this season. With a theme and feel much like Time of Eve, one of my all-time favorite movies, and a dollop of moe, its pilot episode hit all the the right spots. Of course, the episodes following the first have yet to prove if the series will… Read More Anime Today: Dealing with the Finite
