I'm FINALLY starting my journey looking at the Attack on Titan manga series, and ALREADY, there are things changing my perspective of characters, ships, and my mind is churning with ideas for the final season! How exciting!
This series won't have a "set" time of release; just when I get a chance and can read a volume or two! O...

Remember how I was going to wait until the official releases of the Yona of the Dawn manga? Those were fun days, right?! After this volume, there is NO WAY I can wait to find out the fate of our boy Hak!
Seriously, Kusanagi delivers an insanely anxiety-inducing volume where Hak keeps pushing himself to the limit, takes the Senju herb ...

Hoo boy. I thought I knew what to expect going into this first Rebuild, but I was in for a treat! Gorgeous animation? Yes. Controversial decisions? Yes! Extra content that had me fangirling and my jaw on the floor? YES!
The "preview" at the end has me SO intrigued for the second installment, but there is QUITE a lot to debate on what is go...

It's only been about a month, but I'm back with Chapters 115-118 of Seraph of the End and these chapters FLEW by with action and the duel between Yu and Asheramaru -- two individuals (well, one a demon, but still) fighting to save the person they care about most...whether they want it or not!

Oohh, for a penultimate episode, this seems more like the CALM before the STORM of this season. Thorfinn is at his LOWEST point, but Leif is not giving up on him! And meanwhile, Askeladd thinks everything is playing right into his hands...but Sweyn is not going to let him have his way so easily!
There's so much being set up for the season finale...

I have had this OVA on my desktop for nearly TWO YEARS and I've finally gotten around to watching it and it was SO SWEET and touching!
A nice story based off of a light novel involving loss, grief, and finding ourselves after a loss, but done in a brief, cute fashion with the faintest hint of BL. Definitely a nice one-shot OVA to watch!

The tragedy gets handed to us two-fold:
Bjorn and Thorfinn not resting until they can battle Askeladd just one more time.
Bjorn finally accepting death afterwards, and Thorfinn not willing to leave with Leif (if he even does) until he's faced the man who completely changed his world.
