So…I have another of Mo Xiang Tong Xiu’s works to be obsessed over. Billibilli, Haoliners Animation League, and Funimation have brought Tian Guan Ci Fu, or Heaven Official’s Blessing, to us in donghua format. If you don’t remember what else MXTX wrote, well then go to my
I’m a huge Sherlock Holmes fan and I’m pretty picky with how people use the characters outside of the Canon. There are a handful of non-Canonical Holmesian stories I actually like, most make me want to punch things. Something else I’m pretty adamant about is just letting
I know, it’s been a hot minute since I wrote the last anime blog, but I’m going to be honest here and confess that I have fallen so far down the MXTX rabbit hole (author of Mo Dao Zu Shi which I wrote about already) after finding
I mean a post on this show was inevitable, right? I thought about doing a post on this much later, but then thought why? Let me just state that I’m going to use the words sociopath and psychopath at times in this post, and it has nothing

I love stories about love whether it’s in books, movies, tv shows, especially when the story blends both humor and heart. Kaguya-sama: Love is War does both perfectly and despite only having two seasons, one of which just ended a few weeks ago, it has already become
There is a lot of sports anime out there.

That’s right I’m kicking this off with a post about my favorite anime/manga Kuroshitsuji aka Black Butler. Judge me all you like for this being my #1, I don’t care. I love it, end of discussion. For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking
Ok, so as you may have noticed I’ve been really, really, really silent on the blogging front, especially when it comes to books. I can’t explain it, but after spending my entire life as a voracious reader something happened over the last couple of years and suddenly
Strap in…this one was a doozy! Recap – Episode #6 “Best Laid Schemes…” Jamie sits at his desk looking all pensive, and after the way the last episode ended, are we surprised? Murtagh enters the room to say he’s met with Randall’s second and he’s found a
