Initial Results: Naoki Urasawa's Monster

Today, a look at the opening episodes of Naoki Urasawa's #Monster, and its impressive showing. #writing #anime #blog #TheJCO

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations (Spoilers for the first for episodes, so if you want to go in blind feel free to click off). Going into a series with a lot of critical acclaim can sometimes be nerve-wracking, not because I care about having the “wrong” opinion or whatever, but more because it feels like I might be missing something that would significantly affect my enjoyment of the…

Initial Results: Revolutionary Girl Utena

Today, a brief look at the introductory episodes of #RevolutionaryGirlUtena and its wonderful aesthetic and characters. #anime #writing #blog #TheJCO

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations I have spent a lot time thinking about this series, not because I have any real connection to it myself, but rather because of how widespread its influence seems to be. Not only have I heard this show cited in a number of video essays, even ones not about anime, but but also from western creators of other animated series, like Rebecca Sugar of Steven…

Initial Results: Wolf's Rain

Today, Jack looks at the opening episodes of #wolfsrain, and what the series does right already. #anime #writing #blog #TheJCO

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations There are a lot of shows that sit in the back of my mind, every so often popping into my immediate consciousness after a brief interaction via a mention on social media or a peer talking about the series in passing.

Initial Results: Kaguya-Sama Season Three

Today, a quick look at #kaguyasama season 3's opening episodes. #anime #writing #blog #TheJCO

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations Love is war, indeed, and the war now continues into the series’ third season. The competition: fierce, the battles: just as high stakes as ever. Even Chika is resorting to cheating just to get a leg up, much to Ishigami’s continued annoyance. Those who have watched the first few episodes already will understand what I am talking about, and those who have…

Initial Results: In the Land of Leadale

Today, a quick overview of #inthelandofleadale so far. #anime #lightnovel #blog #writing #TheJCO

Welcome, weebs, to Animated Observations It has been a while since I have taken the time to talk about a seasonal isekai, since generally, it feels like most of them exist only to promote the light novels and move figurines. I get that is the case for most anime as a business model, but a lot of isekai in particular just feels like soleless, trend riding made only for a quick cash grab. It…
