This summer, I am excited to do some Livestreams about the following:
* Death Note - The LA BB Murders & Series as a Whole
* Buddy Daddies
* Mob Psycho 100
* Fire Punch & Fujimoto
* Death Parade
* The Great Pretender
* Tsurune & Free!
There may be some others thrown in there, but it's been SO long since I've done livestreams and I have a lot I want to talk about!
Patrons get dibs on asking questions for these livestreams and I'd like to pi...

**SERIES FINALE HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
It feels so weird reaching the end of this series and can I say? It's the most heartwarming and perfect, simple conclusion to the series. I definitely want to do a livestream to talk about it more and we still have the Reigen manga and an audio drama to look at, but this series has been STELLAR from start to finish -- I really have nothing bad to say about this gem. I'm so happy y'all got me to watch it! It's so wonderful!

**NEW CHARACTER HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
We many not get any "games" this episode, but we get new characters, lore, world-building, and explanations, yet more mystery with our show, now! I'm SO excited and curious what is to come with this series but I am all for it!
Ginti, Oculus, and Castra are such interesting characters but how will this affect Decim and our black-haired girl who Decim has taken under his wing?! I am very nervous but also so excited! &nbs...

I remember these episodes being some of the hardest to watch when I first saw the anime...over a year later, they are still GUT WRENCHING. RIP Levi Squad...and hello, foundation of Eren's mentality towards MANY things in this series!
There are some subtle differences between the manga and anime here, but the pain is still VERY much present; we only now get so much more insight looking back at this part of the story...setting the stage for SO MU...

I've been wondering how these episodes with Karl and Richard have any connection with the rest of the story - aside from Johan's presence - and in this episode, we have a HUGE thread dangled in front of us, tying it all together in ways I hadn't even thought of and they are insane!
I have been loving this arc, but THIS episode just grabbed me by the collar and SHOOK me! I cannot WAIT to see what will happen next! &...

We get deep into this flashback with Laurent and ooohhhh...our poor blonde man. He falls hard and fast for Dorothy, who doesn't quite have the same ideals of love. UGH -- show, you're just setting this up to break my heart, aren't you?!
It's SO intriguing seeing how the pieces are falling and these characters know each other...but to what end is this all headed to? Hmmm...so much to think about for these last four episodes! &nbs...

We travel with our unlikely duo of vampire and doctor to Paris, the "City of Flowers," where vampires and humans are secretly co-existing, or trying to! However, there are forces after Vanitas's book and how to use it, as we meet new characters and get some more nuggets of lore dropped into our laps!
Plus, I get to see the OP and oh my, it is the MOST shipping fodder and adorableness! Let's talk about these goons!

Well, time to cry, I guess! Seriously, the "road home" for Gardar: his journey from a proud father to warrior to slave to a dying human is so powerful -- and wanting his son to not become a warrior? As people in the Discord noted, it reads so much like Thors. I feel knowing the mangaka is a father himself made Gardar's final moments hit that much harder for me!
And that was only half the episode, as we also had Snake vs. Thorfinn, reveal...

Something a little different for my channel, but after seeing the new Super Mario Bros. movie with my brother, I HAD to talk to you all about it!
I couldn't find a thumbnail pose I liked, so I stuck with this jenky one I took in a dark movie theater. In any case, I hope you enjoy this little review and I'm curious to know your thoughts!

I'm about to start Trigun and I'm so excited!
I'll be starting with the Retro OG series from the 90's, so my question is... to English dub or to Japanese sub?
I'll have subtitles for either one, so it's up to you all with whichever you think I'll enjoy more! Or pick both if you're feeling extra chaotic!
