Welcome to the weekly collaboration review of My Hero Academia season 4 with Irina from I Drink and Watch Anime and me. MHA seems to have settled into a comfortable pattern in episode 81, “School Festival.” We get two mini-episodes for the price of one (with some foreboding scenes near the end). We also got […]
This is a Crow’s eye view of the posts that caught my attention this week. I look for posts that celebrate amazing moments in anime or otherwise blow me away with their wit and charm. I check hundreds of sites, and I can tell you that the ani-blogging community’s quality and quantity of posts is […]
Quick Summary In No Game No Life episode 5, “Weak Square,” Stephanie Dola was at her wit’s end. Despite all the work she had invested in keeping the kingdom’s political apparatus running, all Shiro and Sora seemed do do all day was laze around reading. To teach them a lesson, she challenged Sora to a […]
Quick Summary In In/Spectre episode 5, “A Monster of the Imagination,” Saki Yumihara and Kotoko Iwanaga watched as Kurou Sakuragawa fought Steel Lady Nanase. Saki was beside herself: all of the fears and anxieties that forced her to leave Kurou seemed to come at her all at once. It didn’t help that the monster kept […]
Quick Summary In Darwin’s Game episode 5, “Aquarium,” Kaname Sudou, Rein Kashiwagi, and Ichirou Hiiragi prepared the hotel for Wang and his Eighth Clan’s upcoming attack. Before the battle began, though, they recruit one more member for their own clan. Ryuuji, the Machine Gun Guy, was at first completely uninterested in joining them. Then he […]
Quick Summary In Somali and the Forest Spirit episode 5, “The Wandering Birds,” Golem and Somali left the city and their friends to head deeper into the dessert. Somali complained constantly about the heat, which Golem tried to alleviate by holding a tarp over her head. When they arrived at the next city, which was […]
In most school populations, and even in many business environments, there’re one or two people who are as nice as can be, but they try way too hard to “toot their own horn.” Maybe that’s how they were always taught. Maybe that’s a self-defense mechanism they’ve evolved over the years. Whatever the reason, things feel, […]
In this week’s episode of My Hero Academia, Bakugou, Todoroki, Inasa, and Camie face off against the students from Masegaki Primary School.

Quick Summary In No Game No Life episode 4, “Grandmaster,” Shiro and Sora continued their chess battle against Kurami Zell.

Quick Summary In In/Spectre episode 4, “Idol Dies by Steel Beam,” after their close encounter with Steel Lady Nanase, Saki Yumihara took Kotoko Iwanaga back to her apartment to treat her wounds. Though grateful, Kotoko couldn’t resist bragging that Kurou Sakuragawa was her boyfriend now and not Saki’s. However, the goddess of wisdom may have […]
Good Smile’s Ram from Re:ZERO is almost like being in the world of Re:ZERO! Minus all of the bloody dying and coming back to life and dealing with brutal villains like Betelgeuse Romanee Conti, that is. So, kinda better! I recently received my pre-order of Ram. I’ve been so busy that “recently” means June 2018. […]
Quick Summary In Somali and the Forest Spirit episode 4, “The Wishing Flower and the Promise Request“, the sight of Musurika froze Somali and Kikiira in their tracks. The wolf-like being had just prevented a huge mushroom-like animal from eating Somali, but does that mean Somali can trust him? Kikiira began to talk to Musurika […]
In the intro to our review of the previous episode, Irina spoke of the re-contextualization the series has undergone in the last several episodes (particularly episode 77). Those words loomed large over this episode, “Win Those Kids’ Hearts” (episode 79). In fact, it drove at least half of the episode — and it managed to […]

Quick Summary In In/Spectre episode 3, “The Rumors of the Steel Lady,” Kotoko Iwanaga, with Kurou Sakuragawa by her side, concluded her business with the mountain serpent spirit. The biggest remaining question: whether Kurou will admit to being her boyfriend! Several years later, Saki Yumihara, Kurou’s old girlfriend, joined the police force. She was becoming […]
Quick Summary In Darwin’s Game episode 4, “Fireworks,” Kaname Sudou and Rein Kashiwagi were trapped on the hotel’s upper floors by the Florist’s plants, which both blocked their escape routes and enslaved other defeated players. Kaname’s quick thinking helped him shoot out the cameras, but the Florist countered by sending his minions searching for them […]
