New hype season of anime just dropped and we've got a hell of a lineup. Check out the video for my thoughts on what's worth looking at. youtu.be/EO2ua1k41Xw

Hey, it's time to wrap up Fall anime, and thank God because this season sucked. See all my thoughts on the shows I watched in my video on YouTube. youtu.be/STZCwB_0Q5o

After hearing a lot of people go off on One Punch Man S3, all I can say is, we've been seeing headlines like the following below for years at this point. Not sure what people expected to happen in the industry. Maybe it's not laziness but people actually starving.

Here it is, my entirely too long video essay on So I'm a Spider, So What, talking about the system, tropes, and what it does well. youtu.be/MnS9Wcgsq6U

New video dropping tomorrow talking about how So I'm a Spider, So What? uses old isekai tropes in inventive ways to tell a unique story. Be sure to check it out on YouTube!

“It's both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects" was such a simple message that was so thoroughly and viciously rejected, but i think many of you still need to learn it

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social

SHAFT's 50th anniversary event full key visual was finally revealed!!! It's amazing!

Here it is, my long awaited hot takes on the Fall 2025 anime season. Check out the full video on my YouTube channel! youtu.be/oRpli0YEabY

What good is being popular, viral, and trendy if it's absolutely void of soul, passion, and deeper meaning? Stop suckling at the teat of 80/80 and enjoy the people in front of you who are connecting with what you are providing.

Summer anime was a hell of a ride, and I liked most shows I watched. Here are my thoughts on all the stuff my Patreon supporters, YouTube members, and I picked now that these are pretty much wrapped up. Looking forward to Fall starting up. youtu.be/KAwqV96FnwU

Hey, here's a video talking about the bad adaptation of So I'm a Spider, So What? from back in 2021. youtu.be/R_By1CQUiuU

Just one more for the whole main series in paperback

YouTube is launching an auto dubbing feature and it's certainly powered by AI which is bad. But it's also an accessibility feature which is good. AI sucks, but when it helps people with dyslexia avoid the autocaptions, it makes a blanket rejection harder to justify. I'll have to think about this one

New Jubilee video incoming.

Seriously watching 29 anime this season. Summer's pretty packed, so here's my video talking about the first episodes and what I think people should be watching. youtu.be/RaNIjvnISdI

Tomorrow's finally the day we're taking my first look at the beast that is the Summer 2025 anime season.

Since Tuesday, I have recorded 6000 of a 9000 word script and edited 40 of the what's looking to be an almost 50 minute long season preview video. All that to hit a self-imposed arbitrary Monday deadline. I'm blaming the summer anime season for motivating me so much.

deluxe Frieren and Fern figure finally arrived and I absolutely love it.

If anyone wants to know what the middle point on this slippery slope looks like, the inspiration tab on YouTube Studio will practically write a video and generate thumbnails and titles for you. Give it a year and YouTube will probably just AI generate schlock for your channel.

Spring 2025 was a hell of an anime season, so check out my final thoughts before we tuck it in and move onto Summer. youtu.be/6kQQTuYI0uc

Tomorrow's the day I'll be giving my final thoughts on the Spring 2025 anime season, so check it out at 9AM EST.

It 's been a few months, but here it is, my video on the second short stories collection for Ascendance of a Bookworm! youtu.be/vvNFWXgtxPU

Just because I released the final volume of the main series doesn't mean I'm done with bookworm content. Not when we've got another short stories collection. Tomorrow's the day for another deepdive.

How Ascendance of a Bookworm depicts the challenges and triumphs of chronic illness Myne's fight to manage her illness--including social and financial barriers to care and the importance of a support structures--have become a cornerstone of the story. www.animefeminist.com/ascendance-o...

he’s right and he’s right to say it

Somebody once told me that Witch Watch keeping the meme alive.

Hot off the presses, here is my first impressions of the Spring 2025 anime season

I have done scratch tracks for projects before. Just me. Because I knew what the project needed. Why the fuck (respectfully) would I use some A.I. that doesn't (and can't) deliver the timing, speed, inflections, etc. I'm looking? Hell naw. Waste of time, more trouble than it's worth.

Someone recognised me in a store while my producer and I were looking for Muppet making equipment. Mentioning it here so you're all equally spoiled on why the video is taking so long

Visible! ONE DAY ONLY 👁️👄👁️ 💙💖🤍

Wow, there's absolutely no way you could tell Twins Hinahima was 95% AI Generated. /s Next time, they should hire animators instead of having interns to fix up their AI generated schlock. This is in an anime that aired on Japanesse television. You SHOULD be worried about the future of the medium.

This is a major development from GDC that I missed out on and I demand additional coverage from @ign.com

That struggle of trying to get a video out on time. Winter's anime season is just about wrapped up, so here's my thoughts on the shows I watched. Unfortunately, BeheNeko is included.

I have a colony of lepers making rifles for me. If they help me kill the forest spirit, they get the hill!

My last Light Novel Deep Dive on the mainline books for Ascendance of a Bookworm is here. It's been a hell of a ride, one that's taken me two and a half years to accomplish and over 48 hours of nonstop talking, bad puns, and stupid jokes, but it's finally done.

Media Literacy In 2025

Tomorrow marks the end of an era in my YouTube journey. My video covering the final volume of Bookworm drops.

Now that it's over, I can confidently say the most recent season of Invincible was a huge uptick in quality for the show. Not just in animation, but the acting really stuck with me. A lot of great performances.

I cannot emphasize enough that SAG-AFTRA not hard-lining full, comprehensive protections against A.I. for their members is inexcusable. They should be stating, upfront, "We will not move forward without these protections in place. End of story." FUCK OFF WITH EVERYTHING ELSE.

4 more paperback releases to go.

Season 2 of Apothecary Diaries continues to deliver a stupendous little period mystery story with more comedy than I expected, and I love it. Mao Mao is one of my favorite protagonists, and that's partially aided by a STUPENDOUS dub. Highly recommend giving it a try; both the show, and the dub.
