The desire to watch Wolf’s Rain again has finally borne fruit. Those of you who have not seen this stunning masterpiece (I almost said flawless, but it does contain four recap episodes in a row) ar…| Medieval Otaku
After watching four episodes of Le Chevalier D’Eon, I felt intrigued enough about the characters to read about their historical antecedents. This desire overtook me in the middle of watching episode five, and I soon turned off the TV in favor of reading Wikipedia articles. That is not to say that Le Chevalier D’Eon’s mix […]| Medieval Otaku
I had the pleasure of watching The World is Still Beautiful or Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii after having first seen it eleven years ago. (You can find some other posts on the anime here and here.) …| Medieval Otaku
Lately, much of my time has been going towards learning how to write screenplays and research on the subject of the story, which explains the lack of posts. The story will be set in the era of the …| Medieval Otaku
I decided to drop Sorairo Utility. After a fun start, this anime committed the cardinal sin which no self-respecting viewer can tolerate for long: it bored me. Learning to play golf is an ordinary thing which ordinary people should do for themselves rather than watching other people do so. The girls were cute, and Haruka […]| Medieval Otaku
Flower and Asuna utilizes an interesting idea for an anime. The tale began as a manga, but the concept behind it can only be properly enjoyed as a motion picture, because it concerns a young lady w…| Medieval Otaku
Anime titles, especially in the realm of isekai, are getting too long these days. So, I’m happy to see a nice short title like Headhunted to Another World. The plot revolves around a salaryman (known as white collar workers in the States) named Dennosuke, who has been long neglected for promotion at work despite his […]| Medieval Otaku
Reading the Frieren manga has been a treat. The anime follows the manga with a slavish exactitude, so I read exactly what I have seen in vivid colors. Still, the story is so pleasant that one doesn…| Medieval Otaku
During Advent, I went ahead and watched Scrapped Princess for the fourth time. This show aired back in 2003, which likely makes it an old school anime for most fans these days. (Earlier in my blogg…| Medieval Otaku
May all of my dear readers have enjoyed a happy St. Andrew’s Day yesterday–especially those who are Catholic or Scottish. I must confess to have overdone the celebrating a little myself…| Medieval Otaku
Last weekend, I watched the movie Heretic, starring Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher, and Chloe East. Usually, I don’t write about live action movies, but this one has topics relating to Christianity and apologetics. Hugh Grant’s character, Mr. Reed, finds issues with religious belief in general. Thatcher and East, Sister Barnes and Sister Paxton in the […]| Medieval Otaku
One cannot praise Spring 2024 enough for the plethora of excellent anime it offered–especially in light of the present season. I ended up dropping two anime, because they bored me: The Misfit…| Medieval Otaku
A four and a half star anime came up this season, namely Unnamed Memory. It kept me hooked from start to finish. There are some big fans of the light novel out there who were disappointed by how mu…| Medieval Otaku
To say that none of the anime of summer 2024 catches my eye would be a lie, but I only feel invested in Sengoku Youko. This gives me a chance to revisit some old favorites and catch up on my backlo…| Medieval Otaku
