I always find it strange when people sue for the right to use a platform, especially one that’s free; they make it seem like it’s the only place where they can do their business, which obviously isn’t true. Read more

You sign the terms of service, you sign away any right you had to sue. Why is that concept lost on people?

I’m fairly certain that this nordstrom inspired dante to write his divine comedy Read more

“I Did It For the Achievement.”

Best. Trophy. Name. Ever.

Great list, but the lack of Toradora! in it its a grave mistake. Read more

For me, romance anime goes downhill if it drags on too long. They need to be short and sweet to keep my interest because I’ll start to get annoyed at the lack of progression. Read more

Glad to see Maid-Sama on the list. Still not sure about the hype that Clannad gets. I’ve tried to get into it a few times, but it feels like Orange in context. I couldn’t finish Orange either. I guess I just like my romance anime with some comedy.

How I feel watching Yuru Camp

I’m a guy, and I love both these shows for the reasons you noted. They aren’t anything resembling fast-paced, and I don’t miss the “how do I confess to this boy” tropes. Instead, they are relaxed and enjoyable, and the characters move the plot along. It’s amazing how fast 22 minutes can go by while still feeling like Read more

I don’t care what anyone says. I love the aesthetic on her character. I hope they don’t change it one iota. Read more
