Btw to the people who said “I miss $2 gas and mean tweets:” well, here are the mean tweets. The president’s deranged tirade is not a surprise to anyone who didn’t memory-hole his first term.

2025 had some great episodes.

I do not “stream,” I do not “download,” I do not “torrent,” I do not “pirate,” I view movies IN THEATERS or ON HOME VIDEO as intended and if it’s not available in theaters or on disc I KILL MYSELF

I would love to support official streaming more often, if only every megacorp in the game wasn’t addicted to shoving AI down our throats and hoarding IPs without releasing them.

I know I’m preaching to the choir here but wow Crunchyroll’s holiday sale is crap. So sad and pathetic that this is what the Rightstuf holiday sale has turned into. How do you let big retailers like Walmart and Amazon sell your own products at a better discount? Wow 30% off select items! Total joke.

Dear me. Blood Blockade Battlefront turned 10 this year! Time flies too much! Anyway let’s see how it’s aged since then. Let the rewatch commence!

Someone (me) just spent more money he didn’t have on the Criterion flash sale. 🤭

10 films to get to know me! #filmsky #promosky I know my taste is kinda basic lol.

On this day 2 years ago The Apothecary Diaries anime started airing! 🌸💐🏵️💮 I miss you, Maomao 😢 #TheApothecaryDiaries #薬屋のひとりごと #猫猫 #cosplay #photography #maomao

Good lord Facebook is so terrible for engagement. Share a link here and I get likes/reposts in minutes despite having a fraction of the followers compared to my friend list. I’m starting to subscribe to a conspiracy theory that tech bros suppress writing/art because they want that space themselves.

Time to feel old as @mmjdanny.bsky.social takes a look at a title that was certainly part of a popular craze at the time. Monster girls!

It's been a full decade but MonMusu is still kinda unmatched in the ecchi harem comedy genre. Spent a good while writing about why I still love monster girls. Makes me feel too old!

Resurrected my blog to talk about the cinema-fication of TV. Am I the only one tired of feeling like TV seasons now are basically excessively long films broken into 8 parts?

We are living under an aspiring fascist regime that has not yet fully consolidated. This is not difficult to understand unless you get paid to muddy the waters.

Real recognizes real

Bari Weiss’ media company btw

Actually been writing the last few days!

Reminding myself constantly that it’s okay to talk about fun stuff too. One tactic this administration uses is to exhaust you with a deluge of negativity. Every day it feels wrong to shitpost when the president is acting like a dictator. But you must give yourself breathing room lest you burnout.

Any solution now is going to be long & difficult. There was a super-easy solution -- just don't let the guy win the election -- but everybody had other priorities, I guess, so here we are.

That ending Kaiju No. 8 season 2 was nasty work.

This is why I don’t particularly care about the accusations of Bluesky being a progressive echo chamber. Could there be more diversity? Sure but at least I know the people here are real and not Nazis either. They also don’t recycle the same viral posts over and over to engagement farm.

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

Nothing like buying more media I probably won’t watch for years. Truly a collector’s favorite pastime. No consume. Only buy.

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

One thing I miss about Funimation is their little birthday shoutouts on their social media. Going through my Facebook memories I saw today is Kate Oxley’s birthday. Got me thinking how much of a shame it is we don’t hear much from her these days in anime outside some reprisals of minor characters.

Every year I realize I am less like Spongebob and more and more like Squidward

I’ve seen 7 episodes of LORD OF MYSTERIES now. Does it ever get more coherent and less convoluted? All of the hype kind of eludes me so far.

The fact that conservatives are so desperate to pin this on trans people (and the fact it made it into some mainstream papers before being retracted) shows why Kirk was a huge problem. He spearheaded a movement to paint trans people as deranged and violent and they will push back on contrary data.

Is it too soon to bust out the crab rave?

That’s my hometown. 😎

Really looking forward to one of the best shonen in years, which is heightened magnificently by its well-directed romance subplot, lose out to Slop Leveling 2 at the next Crunchyroll awards! /s I was just thinking how much the Okarun x Momo dynamic was as cute as it is smart.

We need to start grappling with the fact that the “most important election of our lifetime” was not 2024, it was 2016, and we blew it. 2024 was kind of a second chance and we blew that too.

RFK Jr. Warns Mistress That Condoms Cause Autism

Made sure to catch episode 7 of DanDaDan on #Toonami because of how good it is. I could write forever but right now all I can do is confirm it still leaves me a wreck and it’s still one of the best episodes of anime maybe ever. I can’t praise this show enough.

Forgot to mention the real one.

Saturday #promosky because I’m posting again let’s fucking gooooooo - I’m Dan, or Danny if you’re being casual -29 - I write about anime for The Fandom Post -Anime/manga/light novels - Key (Angel Beats, CLANNAD, etc) - Berserk - Cinema/films - Battlestar Galactica - Yuri/GL - Heavy metal

Just found out Mirko is by canonically shorter than Deku. This does not sit right with me. I- WE cannot and should not accept that. I refuse.

Maybe if techbros trying to encroach on the arts were more sympathetic to our feelings then maybe we’d be more on board. But (possibly out of spite fir how they are depicted by writers and artists) their response is “we won’t need you anymore, fuck you.”

In an era where shonen anime broadcast that rely entirely on hype moments and aura are heralded as the greatest thing ever while the classics get dragged as boring or old, it’s kind of refreshing to see a mainstream source like IGN give Demon Slayer the kind of rating it deserves.

Nothing like a good friend to keep you company after a tough day of work.

This is awesome. How many more big name anime on Netflix still need a release now? We need a 4K of PLUTO and I wouldn’t mind a Blu-ray for My Happy Marriage.

Rewatching DANDADAN episode 4 on Toonami. Every episode reaffirms for me that this is one of the best shonen in years. Visually striking, technically sharp, funny, and it has a big beating heart. It’s so refreshing and fun. Dub rocks too.

Now starting my rewatch for my next Ten Years Later piece… Ah, Monster Girl trend, you were cut down in your prime. But I’ll always love you.

Animated projects resist the temptation to cast celebrities instead of a seasoned voice actor to bring more people to the theater challenge has come to anime yet again.

Oh my god, man…

This might be the best piece of anime news in the last year and a half (since Discotek announced Berserk coming to Blu-ray)

tip of the hat to @mmjdanny.bsky.social for what turned into a nicely timed piece with the recent semi-sequel anime being announced.

Checked out Lord of Mysteries eps 1-2 because the dub is out and I’m pleasantly surprised they had the actors do English accents. It’s always a treat when that happens. I wish it happened more often. Show itself is good, but there’s so much color crammed into every frame it’s almost overwhelming.

You are not immune to (JSDF) propaganda. ….and neither am I. Was wondering how I’d tackle a retrospective on GATE but in the end I like how it turned out.
