Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part five)
I really hope we're going to learn why Heather hasn't been more insistent about the map.

Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part four)
The fox is just a fox. The maid outfit, however, is possessed by the ghosts of English aristocracy past, and causing Praem to hear the horns and hounds and feel the rising bloodlust whenever she looks at a fox.

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac #1
Am I saying that JTHM is trash? Yes. Absolutely. I think it's own creator would agree with that assessment. However, it's trash that occasionally - not always, not even often, but occasionally - has some real wit within it.

Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part three)
"I Need To Rescue My Sister From Hell, But I Can't Stop Getting Distracted By All These Hotties!"

The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ("Find Her Keep Her" and "The Piglet Who Would Be King")
"Find Her Keep Her" doesn't feel very Winnie the Pooh, but it honestly feels like something better than that.
"The Piglet Who Would Be King," meanwhile, was simply written on crack.

Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part two)
Still want to know where she got the suit. And how I somehow imagined it before it existed, for that matter.

Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part one)
In my mind this is the house that every titled English nobleman either lives in or is desperately trying to avoid moving back into while still being too proud to sell.

"Oh My Goddess!" E1 vis a vis "Verthandi in the Middle" Ch1
I'm going to be reviewing the first episode of the 1993 OVA, alongside the first chapter of a kinda-sorta fanfic written by ArlequineLunaire.

Babakiueria
I'm not Australian, I've never been to Australia, and I only know the very, very broad strokes of the country's colonial history. So, I'm sure there's a lot in this 1986 short film that's going over my head.


Pepper Ann ("Dances with Ignorance," "Girl Power," and "Miss Moose")
Heh, I forgot what a textbook ADHD case Pepper Ann was.

Chainsaw Man #19-22
Whatever Makima is, she's either killable with bullets or is doing a very good job at pretending to be.

Skaza Skazok ("The Tale of Tales")
I don't entirely know what to make of "Tale of Tales." I'm not sure if anyone knows what to make of it with any confidence.


Epic: the Musical: the Curated Fanimatic Series (continued even more)
If there is anybody in this story besides Poseidon who merits boss music, it's Scylla. Especially the way Gigi portrays her. Holy fucking shit.

Epic: the Musical: the Curated Fanimatic Series (continued more)
Ghost Tiresias might have the single best singer in this whole damned project.

Epic: the Musical: the Curated Fanimatic Series (continued)
Poseidon is the ocean, the ocean is in the way of home, and the ocean hates Odysseus.

Haibane Renmei (E11-13)
Maybe they'll even see each other again. They probably won't recognize or remember each other, but somehow they're both optimistic.

Epic: the Musical: the Curated Fanimatic Series
I'm not going to declare that this whole album is reinterpreting the Odyssey as a metaphor for military PTSD until I've seen more of it, but the first two tracks definitely make it seem like that.

Haibane Renmei (E8-10)
The wings don't actually let them fly; they just hurt while growing in and inconvenience them from that point on. They have the romantic image, but it's just an image. Beyond the photo-op frozen in time, there's still life that needs to be lived. By someone, somewhere.
