Fuck you Christopher Nolan and your inaccessible form of art.
I haven't read The Odyssey, but I know enough about the book to know that this is quite disappointing. It's entertaining until you realize that it doesn't delve deeply into anything. There are scenes where it's painfully obvious that Nolan wanted to pad out more than two hours of film (why tell me about the Trojan Horse when you could have used that time to explore the characters a bit more? Why show Odysseus on the steps of Troy four times?).
Besides, everyone except Robert Pattinson acts terribly. Stop shoving Tom Holland down our throats, thank you very much!!! I can't stand Anne Hathaway and her inability to show emotion. This should be Matt Damon's breakout role, but genuinely, no one delivers a good enough performance. No one shows intense, raw emotions that match everything they're going through.
There aren't any interesting shots, except for the Trojan horse on the beach, that shot is really cool. The rest are simple and don't evoke any emotion. The music is the same, it's always the same four beats during the sequences that are supposed to be exciting, period.
And I'm not mentioning the women in the film on purpose, because otherwise I will succumb to the rage and kill Christopher Nolan myself
This is just a total mess. Nolan should have retired after making Interstellar.
Also fuck every marvel fan who was at the queue at my cinema to see spiderman part 489 and didn't let me buy some goddamn popcorn for a three hour movie. I hope your favorite marvel character suffers a brutal death on doomsflop. (For my own safety everything I said in this last paragraph is an obvious joke and it mustn't be taken seriously, if I receive any backlash from this, I will not humor it and will be an instant block)

STEEL BALL RUN CHAPTERS 46 - 95 (manga)
Sugar Mountain arc. Just Sugar Mountain arc.
Whatever happened with Lucy made me go insane, I was so worried about that kid. I would very much appreciate if they stopped showing the nipple of a 14 year old, just a suggestion
Also, knowing more and more about Gyro is making me sick, he's too young for all the things he's doing
Hot Pants backstory omg!!! I knew she was a nun but I didn't expect her to be attacked by a whole ass grizzly bear what the fuck. That's so random sorry, it shocked me a little.
I loved Civil War stand, very tragic, I fucking hate Johnny's dad so much just kill him already.
The last arc was INSANE as always, D4C and Valentine were incredible, I loved how he manipulated Johnny so easily to made him think he's a good person.
And then Diego Brando and The World??? I wasn't expecting that at all, oh myyyyy. I do think that last part felt too rushed and almost unnecessary, but it was a cool cameo¿ if that's the proper way to call it.
I decided in my mind that Johnny would definitely win and that would be the reason he walks again (cause it was so obvious that he was going to) so I was surprised when Poccoloco of all people won. He lowkey added nothing to the plot, but he's cool I like him, would've loved to see more of his stand.
There are lots of things that feel rushed. Hot Pants?? What happened to her?? Why don't we know her real name?? Did she really die? And then Jesuschrist corpse ummm I wanted to see more of that, I also thought that Johnny would be able to walk again the moment he obtained the spine of the corpse but well.
And Gyro's death... so unnecessary, I cried. I knew he was going to die but STILL it HURTSSSSS he's my favorite, it was so easy to grow fond of him.
I can't wait for it to get animated and forget everything I read like it always fucking happens.
overall: ★★★★★/5
NARUTO SHIPPUDEN EP 160 - 243 (anime)
I love seeing Minato so much, I want to know EVERYTHING about him. Naruto's reaction when discovering that the Fourth Hokage is his father oh my godddd, I cried like a BABY. And when they made us believe that Kakashi was dead for like five episodes, I was going insane every episode where they didn't show him
I also love how, even now that he's dead, Naruto keeps calling Jiraiya, Pervy Sage, LIKE.
Sasuke is annoying me a little bit. He's gone CRAZY and I genuinely don't know how are they going to fix him. Naruto pls hurry up. They also have to stop doing Sakura so dirty, free my girl from male writers PLEASE
I decided to stop for a while because I was starting to get tired of them but I will continue it next month probably
overall: ★★★★/5
LOOK BACK (movie)
I'm heartbroken. This was so utterly beautiful and even poetic. I knew one of them was dying, I didn't know which one but it hit me way harder than I expected. They show us how easily they build their friendship and how much they did together. They were really soulmates, they helped each other to face their insecurities and everything UGH
When they revealed the cause of death of Kyomoto I was so confused, the cause of death felt very vulgar for the tone of the story but I kinda understand why they chose that way.
What I didn't expect is that they showed us the what if and how everything lead to what happened was, in some fucked up way, really Fujino's fault. That was truly what broke me.
Amazing movie, amazing characters and development, but so so sad
overall: ★★★★'5/5
FIRE PUNCH CHAPTERS 34 - 83 (manga)
It took me a long time but I finally finished whatever this was. I am speechless. The first chapters of this were amazingly uncomfortable, everything was so explicit and vulgar, I never thought it would turn so poetic towards the end.
It's 83 chapters of doom and despair, no one catches a break once and genuinely, Fujimoto does it in such a beautiful way that I can't even complain about suffering.
Once again the ending felt rushed. Something I've noticed is that manga/anime endings always feel very rushed for me, I don't know if it's my fault or if they're really that rushed. Either way, it was gorgeous as well.
I didn't fully understand some of the parts, but I think it was meant to be confusing and interpreted in different ways, so I'll just leave it be.
It's not something I would recommend ngl, I don't understand why my ex coworker recommended this to me but well, it does relaxes in sense of vulgarity around the middle.
Very nice read. It's never getting animated which is sad because there are some scenes that would look amazing animated. Sigh.
overall: ★★★★'5/5
NEON GENESIS EVANGELION EP 1 - 8 (anime)
I am so disappointed with this. I chose this show to watch on my little break from Naruto because I heard amazing things about it, plus it's short. Everyone told me that it's very sad and confused but I can't get hooked to it. I feel they're doing the same thing all over: an angel attacks, Shinji goes into the Eva, he shouts and screams and then gets out of the Eva without doing anything.
I'm sorry but it's repetitive and lame. Maybe it's my fault for having high expectations, but I couldn't really pass episode 8 without falling asleep. At this point the plot should have some sort of shape and meaning, but nope, nothing.
I'll probably give it another try at some point, but now I'm not in the mood for this.
overall: ★★/5
JOJOLION CHAPTER 1 - 41 (manga)
My first thought was that this is freaky as fuck! He appears naked, without memories and with not two, not three but FOUR testicles. I'm dying to see what explanation they give us to this.
The stands are cool as fuck, I love how their abilities become more and more complicated each time. I'm still trying to figure out how Josuke's stand works but well!
Oh and Yasuho. My pretty sweet girl I LOVE her, she's the best. She's funny, she's smart, she has good sense of style. Maybe she's a bit of a crybaby, but boy I don't give a FUCK.
The Higashikata family gives me terrible vibes. The dad specially, I don't like him or his children. They creep me out.
Also, why did they do Johnny SO dirty. He has one of the most awful deaths I've ever seen. What do you mean he died because a rock fell into his face, EXCUSE ME. That's Johnny fucking Joestar you canNOT killing him like that!!!
overall: ★★★'5/5
PHANTOM BUSTERS VOL. 6 (manga)
I've been buying and reading this volumes as they publish in Spanish, having the full collection and getting into a fandom early feels amazing icl.
I didn't enjoy this volume as much as the others, but that's only because I'm used to the group of four to be always the main plot, and in this chapters they gave more protagonism to other characters.
Korekishi is still my favorite, he's so polite and cute, I love him so much. Also Mamoru is so aesthetically pleasing, not only he's hot as fuck, but he's outfits are always incredible.
overall: ★★★★/5
GOKURAKUGAI VOL. 1 (manga)
I have the two first volumes of the manga in physical and I finally sat down to read them, this was so fun! The character designs are amazing, Alma is such a cute protagonist (also, fun fact, but Alma means soul in spanish and it's also used as a name here, but is a woman's name!). And Ms. Tao what a WOMAN OH MY GOD !!!! She's so cool and mysterious, I might even write for her.
The whole plot is very very interesting, also hilarious that the terrible demon-like monsters are called Maga, it really is the cherry on top.
I can't wait to read more about them, I'm picking up the next volumes at my comic book store for sure!
overall: ★★★★/5
WITCH HAT ATELIER CHAPTERS 1 - 60 (manga)
After finishing the anime I needed to pick this up and oh my god! Thank god that I did! The art is gorgeous and the story just keeps getting more and more interesting.
I knew since the beginning of the anime that there's something going on with Qifrey and I still don't trust that motherfucker, the looks he gives from time to time are so creepy. Seeing him without an eye and how they found him made me a little sad, but still, I need to know what happened to his memories. Oh and what he does to Olruggio??? How many times has he erased his memories, oh my god!
Euini's arc made me so sad, he was such a cute kid and didn't deserve what's happening to him.
Oh and Beldaruit. What the fuck. He's gorgeous for some reason and It's making me nervous. How can he be so pretty and so powerful.
I was so excited to see queer couples representation casually, but of course, they had to make them doomed. Genuinely, I'm getting tired that the only way we get our representation is by making us suffer. That's a minus star from me.
Still, this arc is looking good. I didn't expect for Custas to be so important for the plot, I genuinely didn't care about that kid and now he's getting on my nerves. Same with Coco, just talk to a trusted adult. Just talk to a fucking adult. Qifrey is right fucking there man
Obviously Agott is my fav for the kids.
overall: ★★★★/5
HAIKYU!! SEASON 2 - 4 (anime)
I watched the first season a few months ago and I really didn't enjoy it, not the biggest fan of sports anime but well, I gave this a second time because I have a few close friends that loved it a lot. And yeah it's good! It's really good and fun, the characters are amazing and the backstories are fine. I don't like how long the matches end up being, ten episodes to show the match between Karasuno and Shiratorizawa is so unnecessary, I don't care about the strategy or how the set, spike or whatever. So that part was very tiring.
Still, just like Blue Lock, the characters are cool. I love Bokuto and Kuroo, Ushijima was also cool. It's cute to see how every character has a duo. The animation is fine, I guess, the change in season 4 was so ugh, I didn't like it at all (specially Sugawara, he looks like a total different person).
It's a nice show after all, you end up loving the characters and wanting to watch more. It didn't change my life but I enjoyed it
overall: ★★★'5/5
MOB PSYCHO 100 SEASON 1 (anime)
Oh it's amazing, it's so amazing. It reminds me a lot to Saiki K, but it's completely different. Mob is a cutie, I love him and how respectful he is, he also reminds a lot to Okarun from Dandadan, specially when he goes crazy, with the hair and all.
Reigen is INCREDIBLE AGGHH I knew I was going to love him from the moment he was introduced. He's a scammer in someway but he has principles, man, and he's quite sweet to Mob, in the last episode of season 1, when he snaps Mob out of it, ugh so sweet. Reigen is also like 75% fan service, I knew it after two minutes of screen time, he's a total slut.
The rest of the characters are fine, I don't really care about them except Mob's little brother, he's also a very cute boy.
One of the best things is that one character who looks just like Josuke from JoJo's. I already started season 2
overall: ★★★'5/5
DEMON SLAYER: INFINITY CASTLE (movie)
Whoever says that there's too many flashbacks can just shut up and LEAVE. I waited a whole year to see this because I was dumb enough to not watch it in cinemas. And oh my god the wait was worthy, everything from the animation, to the music and the voice acting is insane. I fell in love with this anime because of the vibrant colors and cool character designs, and this movie keeps it just like that. The Upper Moons are so intriguing and such perfect villains.
Akaza's backstory broke my heart exactly how I thought it would, I find so heartbreakingly beautiful how he spends half of his dialogues saying how much he hates weak people, only for then to discover that he was in love with the weakest of them.
I also read the whole manga before this so I can't wait for the next movie to come out, specially for Genya and Kokushibo, who's a far more interesting villain than Muzan.
overall: ★★★★'5/5

loving you was really hard by @liahcharms ☆ the chokehold this has me in oh my god. i am in awe, i have absolutely no words of everything that's been going on in those five chapters. i could talk for hours about them and how everything makes me so stressed and lowkey scared. i had to make my bff read it and then talk about how incredibly well it's written. genuinely. i have no words, liah i'm in love with you.

a/n: i was in a very manga reading vibe this past month, i think i've never read this much in my whole life. apart from this, i also listened to a few podcasts, one that left me surprised was one of all michael jackson's life and crimes, that man sure was crazy
i hope tshd ends with them closing the holes and hikaru reappears in a beam of light bc of his connection with yoshiki and then yoshiki is like “you did it!” and hikaru grabs him and says “no, WE did it” and then they kiss and run off into the sunset together while everyone else cheers and nobody dies the end
I'm going to compare 3 manga male leads that are some of my favs and perfectly encompass my favorite character tropes in romance stories I think (💀) on a scale from most concerning to least concerning.
🔪Pics 1-3: from Firefly Wedding.
This guy activates the part of my brain that wants to see evil psycho unstable murderer in love.
🎸Pics 4-6: from Choking on Love.
This guy encompasses the part of my brain that sometimes just has to see boy-band storylines, but he's kind of ridiculous and not a dick but is chaotic and lovable.
🎮Pics 7-9: from My Love Story With Yamada-kun at Lv999.
This guy is the pinnacle of kuudere, and these panels are from parts after he finally starts showing his caring side. He is the angel of my favs.
