“Then I would find myself losing my mind over some careless thing that you’d do” - Billie Holiday, I Don’t Want To Cry Anymore

Yeah that about sums this up: careless Kim Taehyung making us lose our minds.

Alternatively: Proof that Kim Taehyung has no bad camera angles.

I watched Burn the Witch, and it was pretty cool. Ninny’s hot and I really liked her, Noel’s less hot and I liked her a bit less, that Bangnyfe dude was whatever but I love the energy of using spray cans for summoning circles and shit, and I was disappointed when Elly turned into Cinderella since I loved the gross spindly fleshy feathery design way more. Sorta felt more like an advertisement than anything given the run time, very little time is spent developing the characters and their histories and there’s basically no time spent on just the basic establishment of it all. You’re kinda just along for the ride, which is a fun ride because hey the animation and character designs are pretty good and you get to hear Asami Tano which is always a good thing. I guess the other big way it feels like more of an advert is the connections to Bleach it establishes at the end, so now you’re like “oh shit wait this is connected to that big fuckin shounen series everyone knows and at one point loved, I really want to see more!” and yeah, if this gets adapted into a TV anime at any point I’ll watch that. For now though, it was pretty fun. 6/10.

Munou na Nana episode 6 was pretty cool. The necromancy bringing incel back to life is a really “oh shit!” moment, which made Nana’s very easy handling of the situation feel sorta disappointing, especially since Nana then went and killed the necromancer with basically no difficulty. But not really! Because necromancer and girlfriend actually had the other’s talents, ergo necromancy’s still in the narrative, so Nana’s very easy handling of the situation is now cool actually because we’re gonna use the power in a cooler situation later. Sick. Once again we’re left on a cliffhanger that I wonder how Nana possibly escapes from, she’s literally got two people on her and she’s confessed to the murderer in front of them. That’s pretty rough.

Meanwhile on the Kyoya side, he’s having more and more doubts about Nana being the murderer, since that angelically sweet girl saves cats and shit, and also, if she can read minds, why would she try to kill him so early? That’s a fair conclusion for the guy to reach. I do have to wonder why he hasn’t thought “maybe Nana can’t actually read minds” since that’s also a fair conclusion to reach, but honestly I think he just honestly does consider Nana a friend and wants to give her the benefit of the doubt as much as possible. Between “Nana knows I’m immortal so if she was the murderer there’s no way she’d try to kill me” and “Nana, my friend, tried to kill me, has killed others, and is lying about her identity”, I get why he’d go for the more generous interpretation.

I have my first online lecture tomorrow, and it's at 9 in the morning, and I've went to bed at like 5am every day for like the past 5 days, so I'm really really really not looking forward to this.
