**SO MANY HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
Oh my gosh, so y'all gave me the best BTS Untamed videos to react to! Hope y'all have snacks and are ready, because this is THREE HOURS of fun behind-the-scenes videos, dancing, crack, and interviews that I loved -- I'm officially down the rabbit hole with you all!
Thank you SO much for recommending The Untamed and all these videos! I'm sure we'll talk more on Discord about this series, but it's been SUCH a blast! I appreciate all the support and wat...

*Possibly a Headphone Warning*
Technically, this was Episodes 1-2 on Netflix's version, so really Episode 1, but still -- we're FINALLY here! I'm so excited to be starting this series, and what a start!
Gods, ghosts, and a cinnamon bun protagonist -- this should be a fun ride, eh? These first two episodes definitely set up a lot of mystery and it seems our "bridegroom" has quite the history with our main man already, huh? Even if Xie Lian is unaware...I already want to prote...

I FINALLY finished editing this second round of competition for the Top Husbando and Waifu of 2022 and this round was even HARDER than the first!
Some upsets abound, and MAJOR SPOILERS for the series these characters are from - ye have been warned - but now we're down to the Sweet Sixteen for our Husbandos and Waifus....and things are only going to be torturous from here to the final, aren't they? I will definitely be polling Patreon for some final help with these last rounds... ...

*HEADPHONE WARNING*
One of my favorite pairs in this series - both suspicious, but both such engaging characters - are the focus of this episode, which proves to be both tense and SUCH a tease, especially that cliffhanger! Is Shinya still suspicious to me? YES. Do I think Crowley is going to be an intriguing antagonist? YES. Am I worried for Mika, Narumi's squad, and literally everyone in this series right now? YES!! <...

Ooohhh, this story gets more and more interesting and Light continues to surprise me with his decisions and cunning, as he closes in on the name of the "shadow" following him! I'm SO intrigued to see where the crumbs of foreshadowing set up in this episode lead us in the future!
Also, Ryuk continues to be my favorite, and I continue to pity the people that are just pawns in the plans of th...

*Some Headphone Warning, but Mostly Shocked Silence*
I was not ready for the PAIN of this volume. Hak's rage and sense of betrayal at one of his closest friends comes to a head, as Soo-won realizes just the extent of how much Hak and Yona have grown and changed because of his actions. But, as Chapter 94 is titled, time keeps moving forward...and now these characters have to move forward despite all that has happened between them.
This volume and conclusion to the Water Tribe arc w...

Just when I think this series can't crank it up another notch, we have a set of episodes filled with our sunshine boy pitching against the toughest team in the tournament, and DOING WELL!

Starting a new series! And this one looks MIGHTY interesting! Vikings, huh? We're already getting into some interesting visual symbolism, conversations, and characterization choices involving innocence, unreliable narrators, and the mystery surrounding the timeline of the show!

This show continues to surprise with the hidden Season 2 references and some "happy coincidences" that tie beautifully with where we are in Season 4. I forgot JUST how similar Annie and Eren are in this...is it bad that this Eren is my favorite? When he's not faced with devastating decisions and can just be a fiery, yet compassionate, friend?

This episode is officially my FAVORITE so far and a great representation of what this show does well: Showing, NOT telling; establishing MORE mystery and intrigue; giving character development, and enough action and sci-fi goodness to keep one satisfied!
Misato is flawed, but I LOVE her character in this so far, and the relationship she is forming with Shinji (even if it's part of the...

It's been nearly two years since Haikyuu ended, but I'm still so in love with this series, and Furudate DELIVERS with this one-shot (hopefully not) continuation of the manga!
SO much to fangirl over - character interactions, team match-ups, all the ships; PLEASE tell me we're going to get a continuation of this in August! This was the dose of sugar I NEEDED! Pardon me (and your ears) while I fangirl right out of the volleyball stadium!

WHAT A SATISFYING FINALE! Seriously, I am fangirling all over the place with how happy I am with this episode; it was beautiful, sweet, wholesome, just a tick spicy (Sasaki, you!), and was a perfect way to round out this season.
I'm not too sad, because I know we're getting the OVA this summer and a second anime project, but I am bittersweet that I won't have more wholesome goodness with our boys for another week for a while. *sighs* Still, if you ha...

After many requests, I'm listening to the Character Songs from The Untamed!
I look at the cast of our series, along with "Wu Ji" and the Yi City theme -- this was a LOT of fun and man...the lyrics and vocals of some of these were INCREDIBLE! Safe to say our Untamed actors are not only great performers, but "Have the Range" as well! I hope you all enjoy!

It's crazy to think how far Shinji has come in a few episodes -- he hasn't changed as a character, but I love how by the end of this episode, he makes a point to show Rei that there is SOMETHING and SOMEONE that she has in this world, if nothing else.
