Three hours left in my day, but I think I need a mental health day today. Feeling overwhelmed. Next time I will follow this article. I love anime and manga and all mediums of horror and sci fi, but, despite how I may see myself, I am not superhuman.
Sometimes taking a mental health day, a day off that's geared toward stress relief, is the best thing you can do for yourself. Here's how.
Music Spotlight: MIYAVI
Are you ready for a special Music Spotlight guest appearance? This week, we’re featuring popular singer/songwriter, guitarist, and actor MIYAVI to celebrate the release of his anime cover album MIYAVIVERSE. Check out our full interview below!
Tell us about your recent album, and what you hope fans take away from it.
The new one is an anime song cover album. We cover anime songs like Evangelion or Naruto or Hunter, classic ones. One of the reasons why we did that was because I am Japanese, so it’s great to relearn that content, and I’m sure so many of my fans will be familiar with those anime. It’s a fun process to bring those anime tracks to MIYAVI’s world. It’s a different kind of vibe—anime songs, J-pop. But once I start playing the guitar, it’s like the original universe of the sound—and that’s why we named the album MIYAVIVERSE. It doesn’t have to be only the anime songs—it’s more like when we covered ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’, or ‘Youth of the Nation,’ or other Japanese tracks as well. Obviously it’s MIYAVI’s sound, but it’s a fun process to do a cover.
Your 14th studio album is themed around hit anime songs—what would you consider your favorite anime of all time, and your favorite opening/ending song?
My favorite is Dragon Ball Z. I know, it’s too classic, but that’s the thing I was watching when I was young. And every anime lover is going to respect Dragon Ball Z. To be honest, it’s too hard to cover that song—we can do it, but I don’t know if it's doable to perform on stage in a cool way. So that’s why we gave that one up.
Your illustrious career spans the last 20 years and multiple mediums—what would you consider the highlight up until now? Are there any major moments of growth you can recall?
Yes, a lot. First of all, when I moved to Tokyo from Osaka when I was 17 years old. I was kind of beginning to start finding myself as an artist. And then I became a solo artist, and then, you know, I started focusing on the guitars, and people started calling me a guitarist—so what’s my name? And then, in 2008, I started going on world tours, learning English, and acted in the film Unbroken with Angelina Jolie—so of course, you know these are big moments. And then I became an ambassador for UNHCR—that’s huge.
If you could give your younger self advice on how to cope with the pressures of society, especially in the entertainment industry, what would you tell them? Would you give your kids that same advice?
First of all, keep going and polishing up your skill, what you have—you know—your talent. That’s everything in the end. Nothing else helps you. I still just keep telling myself that. You know, it’s not about the connection or relationship or, of course, personality is counted—it’s included. More than that, as an artist, what you can give to the world is everything—so just keep going. As long as you have "it".
What are your biggest passions outside of music and acting? Are there any hobbies you turn to when you need to destress?
I play games. It’s a great connection with my daughters. It’s a huge connection, and then even while I'm away from home, I can still communicate with my daughters. And then it’s great to have something you share with your family. At the same time, it consumes a lot of time. So that’s the thing—once we start playing, it’s like we keep playing because it’s fun, and we go crazy. But at the same time, time is time, and I do need to work. But that is the hard part, and it is working well for our relationship. It is also the same thing if you play soccer or basketball or sports, it’s kind of the same thing.
This year marks your 20th anniversary, and in that time, you’ve racked up an impressive list of accomplishments. Is there anything you haven’t done yet that you’ve always wanted to? And are there any opportunities you regret not taking?
Basically, there are no opportunities that I regret not taking because I take everything. I never miss opportunities, as you know. When schedule conflicts, and some things that I was not able to do, there are some of course. But, personally, I never missed any opportunities in my life—so there is no regret. But there are tons of things that I have not accomplished, and want to accomplish. We haven’t gotten any GRAMMYs. These are not everything you know, but that's a great goal to have—and I have to work harder to accomplish it.

Now that I have emotionally recovered: Here are my feelings about 1899 S2: -All in all -> Greatest second season ever made.
Favorite character arc:
-I’m biased here but Krester. The way, he overcame the loss of his leg through the sim was done so well. Plus seeing his relationship with Ramiro heal made me feel so emotional.
Favorite episode:
- 2x07 “The Depth”. I loved the twist that in the actual reality (and I hope that is the case lol) the crew is not in a space but in a u-boat. It ties the settings of the first and second season together perfectly well.
-Honorable mention to 2x02 “The Crew”. I loved seeing all of the characters actually work together. Plus the dynamic between Jerome and Ángel was *chief’s kiss*
Favorite moment:
-Tove coming out to her brother
Funniest moment:
- Tove giving Ramiro the shovel talk. He was so scared lmao
Favorite shot:
-Clémence with that bisexual lighting and the gun <3333
How about you guys?
I’m sorry to break the news OP but in 2x07 you can see that the u-boat logbook mentions the boat being called “scarabaeus 03”, which ties in to the bug symbolism so I’m afraid we’re not fully at our destination yet. + The fact that DANIEL IS BACK makes me just the more suspicious, idc what files Maura found in those crusty 80s PCs, that man is not real.
Adding some of my hot takes: The fact that they stil managed to put creepy (AI) children on the spaceship is so cursed but Maura being the one to “execute” them while Iben watches in horror was a good contrast to S1 I loved it. What the fuck was that creature in the very last shot of 2x07??? It looked kind of like the spaceship Motherboard put through a blender it was actually horrifiying. Speaking of which: I loved the Giger tributes throughout the season. And making the Motherboard a wired up cyber-milf might not make the most sense but it’s fucking rad, ESPECIALLY considering they got Tilda Swinton to do it what a fucking treat.
Oh god another parallel, when when Clémence was stuck in the air vent panicking and Tove had to calm her down by saying “Det er mig” when Clémence calmed her down by saying “C'est moi” in S1…. poetic cinema. Seeing Jérôme cry while confronting Lucien honestly made me tear up as well. He didn’t really get a chance to be vulnerable in S1 so that was a nice moment. THEY REALLY HAD US IN THE BEGINNING OF 2x05 with the Eyk/Maura clothed sex scene but of course t'was all ~just a dream~. Jantje you goddamn tease. I love the slow burn but those idiots need to FUCK.
Funny moments:
-Yuk Ye being overprotetive over Ling Yi while Olek sits in the corner like a beaten puppy, supposedly not understanding a single word. -Anker and Ramiro playing pong on the computer just before Maura activates the Motherboard
-“THERE ARE NO WOLVES IN SPACE!” -“Was ist mit Hunden?”

Definitely on my list of cosplays!
One of the worst things about 1899 getting canceled—I am LIVID—is that in 2018, Netflix made the showrunners sign a multiyear exclusivity contract. So they can only make shows for Netflix during the contract time. And this is how Netflix treats them?
Fuck Netflix.
Just wrong!
