Welcome, all, again--and happy holidays(!), of whatever flavor you prefer. This time around, we'll be looking at I'm Standing on a Million Lives, a show that has me puzzled but nonetheless entertained. Simply put, this is a show that should be about gaming but isn't, although it seems to offer all the right tropes.

Welcome, all, again. This last was a slow viewing season for me, with my favorite genre (slice-of-life) severely underrepresented. Only three new shows managed to catch my interest, and one of those was quickly jettisoned. So today we'll look at Monster Girl Doctor, an homage to the throwback idea that anime exists solely for awkwardly needy, nerdy otaku who spend all day fantasizing about girls

Welcome, all, again. Since last my last column appeared here, Corona-chan swung by briefly (I tested negative, thanks!); my profession has been even further vilified; and Memphis regressed from Phase 2 back to Phase 1, devastating the local economy. All of which segues nicely into a discussion of The Misfit of Demon King Academy

Welcome, all, again. Today let's talk about Princess Connect! Re: Dive, a show that can be kind of hard to pin down: it's comedy; it's adventure; it's bodaciously harem! Well, bodaciously bodacious, anyway.

Welcome, all, again. We are transitioning from a particularly bountiful viewing season, and one of my favorites was yet another anime about anime, Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! Here we witness passion and drive yoked to the creative spirit, simultaneously explored in a variety of ways--including the resounding slap of Machiavellian diplomacy and manipulation.

Welcome, all, again. I recently raided my backlog of series-to-be-watched and pulled out 2011's Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl--literally pulled it out of my DVD collection, where it's lingered for who knows how long, now? It was time.

Welcome, all, again. A new viewing season is upon us, with generous offerings in a number of genres. Today's topic, Ascendance of a Bookworm, is an isekai story focusing much more strongly than usual upon the protagonist's adjustments to the mundane elements of her new existence (although her sudden youth probably precludes any more assertive role).

Welcome, all, again. As regular readers will know, I tend to gravitate towards slice-of-life series. However, I might seem to some to be a bit generous with that designation, including series that obviously belong to other genres. My own position is that most living things--works of art included--have multiple facets to their being, thus enabling me to focus upon some aspect others might overlook.

Welcome, all, again. Today I'm excited to discuss the new fantasy/slice-of-life anime If It's for My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat a Demon Lord. To be honest, I had only heard of this as a light novel series; I didn't even realize that there was an anime version planned.

Welcome, all, again. My last post herein covered The Magnificent Kotobuki, a group of pilots first fighting air pirates, then transitioning to fight an actual war.
