Ok I'll get back to work now.

So I'm working on a new Apothecary Video, and as I'm going through I've come up with an additional 3-4 concepts for Apothecary Videos, that I either need to spin-off from the script or just accept that this video is going to be a good 2 hours long.

New Video youtu.be/72LCwU9s3OM

I would love to upload a quick video but all of the stuff I want to work on are long projects so I'm just gonna keep plugging away on 'em...

Episode 7 of GQUUUUUUX is what all great episodes strive to be, a massive sea change in the middle of the series that mixes up our character dynamics right as they could’ve become stale, and raised the stakes and ambition far beyond the initial scope. Frankly the clear favorite for Episode OT Year.

Great #Lazarus criticism. These stand alone eps "don't build into the larger narrative in a meaningful way, taking away from the core motivation and momentum of the plot" & underserves its characters. Good job pointing out the flaw in its narrative structure.

Heartbreaking realization that even though Vortex (Lazarus OP track) is 1 of 1 this season, Tank! is just simply too iconic to ever be dethroned in the Watanabe ouvre.

I fear that (through 6 episodes), Lazarus is what ppl who don't like Cowboy Bebop think Bebop is. That's my hot take for the month, catch me in June for "Eighty-Six Season 2 is actually an enlightenment-esque take on Code Geass: Akito the Exiled's aesthetics"

Breaking news: Apothecary Diaries cannot stop cooking out of its fucking mind

My buddy Logan's video has proven to me that the average youtube commenter does not know what is and is not a Shonen Jump manga. (www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZhO...)

New video is out!! Going over EVERY Series Currently in Shonen Jump... for at least a few more days... lol youtu.be/lZhONxCIKyc

I have a lot of thoughts about Shoshimin Season 1 (and I've been waiting for Season 2 to finish before I say anything), but Season 2's first episode has raised my expectations for the coming episodes.

Quick Apothecary Short about a really cool voice acting decision: youtube.com/shorts/wWbqB...

New YouTube Short Is out! Pretty much everything was done in Blender. And while I think overall it lacks cohesion, I'm still very happy with what I've thrown together and I look forward to messing around more! youtube.com/shorts/yp70E...

I think Bluesky will have people on here way more frequently when it has the following: - Group Chats (priority #1) - Bookmarks - Better video/gif quality with longer videos - Parody accounts so we can be more snarky as a whole

Lazarus, GQUUUUUUX, Fire Force S3, Kowloon Generic Romance, Cinderella Gray, a villainess, and 2 or 3 detective/thriller series that have potential (+ Shoshimin S2). Is it possible that Spring 2025 could be the best anime season in years?

Gundam GQUUUUUUX Beginning is fucking perfect down to the sound effects holy cow.

Very telling that if someone says their favorite anime is Code Geass, no one asks if they mean Lelouch of the Rebellion or any of the spin-offs, and I do mean that damningly despite me liking them.

I really do love how the new Apothecary Diaries OP has this visual thread of "unfolding" and "reflection" that all lead into the mysteries we've gotten this season and truly tie the piece into a cohesive whole instead of a bunch of one-shots.

Posting the new video here too cause why not! It's about Balatro youtu.be/Yq3DyHGiBKo

I fear Boichi is cooking completely out of his mind on The Marshal King and we're only 2 chapters in.

Obligatory haha funny number go brrrrrrrrrr

Originally I was going to do the intro to the Yatagarasu video in Blender (only to find out that my rig is so old that I can't render it) but I'm excited to keep learning about it and (with an upgrade to the computer) start incorporating stuff like it into my videos.
