Nisemonogatari Episode 7 – Karen Bee, Part Seven (Pt. 1)

We’ve made it to the final episode of Karen Bee, and what an episode it is.
Lot to unpack! Too much, actually.

Anime Studio Challenge: 3xCube's Jitsu wa Watashi wa (Actually, I Am…) (Review)

Alright, another anime studio challenge review.
This time, it’s 3xCube’s Jitsu wa Watashi Wa.

There were only two choices here, so it was basically either a supernatural school harem, or an adventure romance. And I went with the school harem, of course! In reality I was just in the mood for some comedy.

In the spirit of transparency I will disclose that I did skip the studio / producer 33 Collective, whose only work was a 40 episode children’s show. I hadn’t originally factored kids shows into the rules, but I’ll probably end up skipping those too if they are the only option. We’ll see though on a case-by-case basis…

Spoiler-free as usual.

Touhou 3 – Phantasmgoria of Dim.Dream Review

Another Touhou game down, although this one was a little different!
Didn’t take too long to actually beat, but also didn’t feel like I really learned anything or improved so much as I got lucky.

Anime Studio Challenge: 2:10 Animation's Wo Shi Jiang Xiaobai (+ OVA) (Review)

The next producer / studio on the list is an actual studio – 2:10 Animation.
And if you couldn’t tell from the name of the anime, it’s a Chinese studio!

The anime is called Wo Shi Jiang Xiaobai.
For some reason, on MAL the English translation of this is “I’m Joybo”.

I’ve got a few words regarding that later though.
So let’s get into it.

Spoiler-free as usual.

ShinRa-Bansho – ははうさぎ (Mother Right Heron)

The other day I was looking for a feel-good song to use as a post theme for my Nagano mountains post and came upon this one, ははうさぎ, or Mother Right Heron by ShinRa-Bansho. And since, I’ve been hooked!

The song:

Bakemonogatari Episode 14 – Tsubasa Cat, Part Four

Part Four?! That Tsubasa Hanekawa is getting quite the arc here, even if one episode of hers was actually hijacked by Hitagi Senjougahara…

And there’s still one more part after this!

Bakemonogatari Episode 13 – Tsubasa Cat, Part Three

Koyomi Araragi is on cloud nine after his stellar date with Hitagi Senjougahara. But then he get’s a message from Tsubasa Hanekawa asking him to skip school to meet her at the park! Tsubasa Cat continues!

Touhou 2 – Story of Eastern Wonderland Review

Another Touhou game down, which means that it’s time to put on my game reviewer hat once again.

This time featuring Touhou 2 – Story of Eastern Wonderland.

ShinRa-Bansho – 純情アルメリア (Pure-Hearted Armeria)

When I heard this one, I had to write a post for it.
YouTube’s autoplay feature has been giving me a lot of ShinRa-Bansho to listen to lately, I guess the algorithm favours them fairly well after all of the Akatsuki I’ve listened to.

The song this time is called 純情アルメリア (Pure-Hearted Armeria).

Bakemonogatari Episode 12 – Tsubasa Cat, Part Two

The Tsubasa Cat tale continues, only, without Tsubasa herself.
Remember how Tsubasa was constantly bringing up Koyomi’s relationship with Hitagi? Well…
