Sometimes I'll watch commentary youtubers and it drives me insane when the person is constantly going "pre...pree-clampsia? What is that?" or "Reenee Dess-cartay? Am I pronouncing that right?". It's incredibly bold to make your job commenting on shit when you've apparently never heard of anything
Real and true
In no uncertain terms, fuck the US
Naoko Yamada has always excelled at using color in her storytelling, k-on s2 is packed with it, but this is where i think it truly reaches the next level
gorgeous film with so much information packed in every frame
been 2 days since i watched it but the K-ON movie is everything i could have wanted and more
Azusa is already the emotional core of the second season and the movie doubles down on that in a way that the climax of the story hits you even harder than it did in the TV series
My first article for @magicalstage.moe in over a year and it's about Mitsuru Aoyama!
I got out the dusty line graphs and the spreadsheets to make something concrete about one of my favourite animators!
Jacob talking into a microphone in front of a variety of characters. Mara from "Perfect Tides," Tommy from Rugrats, a big daddy from Bioshock, and Jesus Christ holding a cross-themed game controller.
In the years since publishing my Wolfenstein essay, I’ve wondered what a truly “Jewish game” might look like. Does it need to explore the themes and narratives of the culture? Or could it simply star the most famous Jew of all time — Jesus Christ himself? youtu.be/8dkB-KTMB3o
Klart hon ska få stanna. Men inte på grund av betyg, språkskicklighet, utbildning eller volleyboll. Utan för att hon är en människa.
Yeah i watched 25-26 as well, i still have the OVA left though
Will watch that before i jump into the movie
It is time for the movie next....
so i finished K-on yesterday
She even got a hat
Noriko Takao is one of the very best and it's good to remind ourselves of that
These are just some incoherent thoughts i have that i wanted write down somewhere because I'm just sitting in a train on the way to campus thinking about K-on
And often times when you see an anime focused on a craft it's usually at the center of the story's conflicts.
K-on doesn't have those, instead it will hit you with the reminder every other episode that nothing lasts forever and you will feel like sobbing
K-on is all about cherishing the time you have with the people around you despite it not being permanent. The uncertainty of growing up and potentially drifting apart from your peers is something everyone can relate to. You could call k-on a music anime but there isn't much for music nerds here.
k-on season 2 has placed a lot of emphasis on HTT's time together being temporary and enjoying the time they have left to the fullest so seeing the third years break down in tears after their last high school consert kinda hits you like a truck
Once the economy isn't economying
gimme some...
Show so good it always has multiple lines per episode that just stunlock you
Remember Ikoku Nikki, the show that is extremely good? Get this: this week, it was... extremely good (posted from the hospital, where it sent me)
Despite having read this part already i am kinda just in disbelief after watching this week's ikoku nikki
HUGE news, this changes everything
I thought Ikoku Nikki was amazing and no one should skip it, but actually, it's better & watching should be mandated by law
Embarrassing example of the commodification of artists through this new wave of "sakuga discourse" (hypeposting about action anime) is joking about a person working under a different name after going through a rough patch wrt mental health. Wanting a clean start is not "a bad attempt at fooling you"
Another reminder of how incredible of a director Yasuhiro Takemoto was..... 😭😭
K-on!! Episode 9 kinda almost had me sobbing
Seeing Yui's growth as a person and her wanting to do something for the granny next door was so nice.
Juggling both the talent show and her exams while succeeding at both, i feel like a proud dad😭😭
Another heavy episode about memories, grief, and trauma hovering over survivors. And yet, it culminates in a beautiful scene where this welcoming environment allows Asa to establish her identity. To convey this, guest animator Naoya Takahashi makes the show's naturalism more charismatic than ever
Watch Ikoku Nikki
Read Ikoku Nikki
Do not skip Ikoku Nikki
Ikoku Nikki!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
