Admit it: you’ve had times when you want something sold in Japan so badly that you don’t care how much it costs, only to find out that there’s no international shipping. You swept the floors of eBay no less than five times and searched every obscure web shop you know, yet still biting your lips [...]

Thanksgiving is almsot here, so is Black Friday. But a D.N.Angel fan can’t wait and is willing to buy any on-sale D.N.-related products. My last purchase was a shell-out on a $80 art book that’s surly extremely rare and was sold solely in Japan. Today I’m going to do an unboxing post on this Box Set that literally just arrived on my front porch. If you would love me to write another review on the art book, leave a reply and give me a heads-up.

“He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. Is not life a hundred times too short for us to bore ourselves?”-Frederich Nietzsche Monsters come in a vast multitude of forms and varieties. From the serpent-haired Gorgon Medusa to the reanimated monstrosity known as Frankenstein’s Monster; monsters are a staple [...]
I apologize for the lateness of the review (a seemingly more common thing nowadays, huh? Oh well), for I have been wrapped up in my studies. I wish they were studies on the occult, however. That would be much more fascinating than boring ol’ regular school. It’s possibly more life-threatening, assuming this stuff was real, [...]
“A man reserves his true and deepest love not for the species of woman in whose company he finds himself electrified and en-kindled, but for that one in whose company he may feel tenderly drowsy.” -George Jean Nathan Love is a truly unique and fascinating emotion. Authors have written about its power, singers have written [...]
“Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.” –John Lennon “Growing up” is an essential and unavoidable aspect of every human being’s life. We often think maturity is measured in the same way age is measured; a numerical set of years. However, children can grow up surprisingly fast even at a young age when they are [...]
Hmph. This mystery is starting to bore me. Whether or not this show is any good at all is of no concern to me. Accessing my wellspring of knowledge, the fragments of Chaos all come together to form…an opinion on an anime series. That’s pretty anticlimactic. Gosick Episodes: 24 Originally aired: 27 December 2010 – [...]
