Welcome, all, again. Today's discussion will focus upon The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent, a quiet isekai offering one of the least flamboyant--yet one of the most solidly constructed--storylines ...
Welcome, all, again. Our last discussion concerned a dark plot by an abused healer to remake his world, so I thought a much lighter take on world conquest might ...
Welcome, all, again. 2020 was a rough year the world over, and almost everyone I know is feeling lingering effects in some way. I myself lost relatives, coworkers, ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
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! ...

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 ...

Alas, another week without a Shiki recap - sorry guys! But don't worry, I still have Shiki on my mind. Last time we rehashed what's already happened, this time let's take a look at what might be to come: the story I want, the story I'd settle for and the story I think Shiki's going to give me.

Everyone, I have really sad news. You might want to sit down before you hear this. Okay? Ready? Here goes: Shiki is on hiatus until October 14. No new episodes, no new hair, no new developments in the Vampire Yuuki storyline. It's rough, I know. Believe me, I feel your pain.

Oh, sure, it might be kind of boring, and it might have the silliest title we've seen yet from this series (pretty sure we passed nine coffins by episode 2!), and it might be implausible that our heroes have suddenly developed psychic abilities where the vampires are concerned, but I think this episode might also be a real winner. Barely a hint of purple hair!

I'm not a huge fan of the horror genre - in part because I am a big sissy. Actually, that's the whole reason why. I, Hounddog, am a total scaredy cat and I don't care who knows it. And let me tell you, after this episode...I'll probably have to sleep with the lights on for a few days.

I had a cake metaphor all planned out for this episode that I can't even use now because this episode went completely bonkers on me and just about dissolved into yaoi, and everyone knows that cake + yaoi is way too sexy for mass public consumption here at 91.8 The Fan.
