K-ON! Impressions

I finally caught up on this show. This show needs to be taken to task on the fact that it has both the laziest and crappiest animation this season. It’s criminally bad, in spite of all the shortcuts taken. The BS 4:3 aspect is actually welcome, the art and animation are so [...]

I Need To Stop Discriminating Against Bikes

I’m suddenly feeling like it’s Blassreiter all over again. When I first watched Blassreiter, I was totally cheesed out by the Demoniac + motorcycle action.
