First Impression: The Fire Hunter

A man armed with a sickle battles to overcome a vicious beast in the forest, saving the life of a little girl at the cost of his own. With his dying breath, he tells her the name of his dog, Kanata, who has fought just as fearsomely as his master. This is no simple, if… Read More First Impression: The Fire Hunter

The Labor Day Anime Cookout!

Ah, Labor Day. To some, this could mean the unofficial end of summer. To others, this could mean putting away our white-colored clothes because of some arbitrary fashion rule. Some others, either voluntarily or involuntarily, tend to take Labor Day quite literally. If this applies to you, why on earth are you reading this article;… Read More The Labor Day Anime Cookout!

First Impression: YUREI DECO

Once upon a time, a narrator shares an obscure fable about a many-eyed giant, a just society turned murderous, and peacock feathers while a psychedelic world unfolds on the screen, offering a glimpse of the many characters (and possibly time periods or dimensions) that will doubtless feature in the upcoming 12 episodes, before focusing in… Read More First Impression: YUREI DECO

Of Artists, Minstrels & Drowning Friends

How far would you go to save a friend? We never expect it will be that far; that it will be too far, and will push beyond the bounds of what we’re willing or have the capacity to offer. Instead, somehow, it will always be doable in the moment and we won’t really have to… Read More Of Artists, Minstrels & Drowning Friends

Fear of the Future in The Heike Story

Have you ever been afraid of the future? Have you ever looked at the horizon and worried about what lay ahead, hidden just beyond sight? The hardships to come, the opposition you’ll face, or perhaps even worse, the things that will never be, as the things that are missing from your life continue to elude… Read More Fear of the Future in The Heike Story

First Impression: Akebi’s Sailor Uniform

Rice paddies and those that call them home: a songbird, a couple of farmers and a girl who runs for the pure joy of it. She pauses to gather herself, thinking of her favorite idol and her goal of making friends at her new school, before throwing herself into a cartwheel that turns into a… Read More First Impression: Akebi’s Sailor Uniform

beneath the tangles
[twwk] We all experiences hours and seasons of lon [twwk] We all experiences hours and seasons of loneliness. Some of us are experiencing months or a lifetime of it. But “feeling lonely” doesn't mean you're “alone.” God is here and he wants to meet you, befriend you, save you.

Wolfwood shows up in episode four of Trigun. He's a kindred if opposite spirit to Vash and challenges him in a variety of ways. He's challenged by Vash, too. In the original anime, the relationship leads to a spiritual awakening in his final scenes on the show.

While we're not qualified to be therapists and help you through your problems, we can be a Vash to your Wolfwood or visa-versa by being here to listen. By being here to pray—and prayer is so powerful. God answers prayers. It's why we have a group of people praying for Beneath the Tangles here on Instagram. We can't function without people praying for us.

If you need prayer or someone to listen to you, just send us a message. And remember that people do care, and more importantly, HE cares. In this sometimes overwhelmingly loud and sometimes painfully silent world, that’s meaningful.

Random comments on episode four:
• An improvement on the previous ones, but I still wouldn’t care about Vash if I hadn’t seen the original. They’re flying through the material too fast. Someone compared it to the beginning of FMAB.
• Wolfwood got a really nice introduction
• I like Roberto a lot. He’s my favorite character so far in this reboot. But I NEED Millie. 😭 
• Just to pick on the above screencap—God is a proper noun here. Feels like a very specific and weird choice to keep it lowercased when the rest of the episode’s subtitling was clean.

Don’t you do it, Vinland Saga. Don’t you dare Don’t you do it, Vinland Saga. Don’t you dare go and make me cry. 😭 

I have to be honest. While I'm enjoying a number of series right now, this season it feels like there's Vinland Saga, and then there's everything else. @wacotaku has been telling everyone that this arc is going to be amazing. It already is, and it's just begun.

QOTD: What's your favorite new show of the anime season?

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..."
