Okay y’all, we need to take a moment and understand that, while our knowledge of anime was slim and next to nothing in the 90s to 00’s, we can openly admit that one anime flew under the radar. It’s time that The Vision of Escaflowne (Tenkuu no Escaflowne) gets the just rewards it freaking deserves. Quick summary (thanks Internet) Hitomi Kanzaki is just an ordinary 15-year-old schoolgirl with an interest in tarot cards and fortune telling, but one night, a boy named Van Fanel suddenly appears from the sky along with a vicious dragon. Thanks to a premonition from Hitomi,…

This year has been a great year (so far) for anime. A friend of mine recommended that I watch The Quintessential Quintuplets when I visited her one day. She put it on and instantly I was hooked on this series. If you haven’t seen it yet, no fear! It’s currently on Crunchyroll and it only has 12 episodes. It’s a quick watch and yes there is fan service. But I digress this is a heartfelt anime with a slice of life touch to it. With that being said, and it only having 12 episodes, I gotta say I was left…

It has only been a little over a week since Avengers: Endgame was released. And while the .00001% of you who hasn’t seen it, please do so. But nonetheless, die hard fans are campaigning for something that needs to be in front and center. They want Robert Downey Jr. to be nominated for an Oscar for his performance as Iron Man. Vanity Fair came out on twitter with this little interesting tweet. And already has a lot of people talking, including yours truly. While some have already spoken about how much they will support RDJ for a nomination. Others want…

As a female I love the fact that so many Heroines are stepping out onto the big screen. Growing up I had Sailor Moon and books. That was pretty much it for me, and in the last decade female Superheros are really starting to take off. We have The Wasp, Okuye, Shuri, Wonder Woman, and Captain Marvel to name a few of these great ladies. So during the filming of the movie Robert Downey Jr held a “Ladies of Marvel” lunch. Cause you know he needs his time to shine as well. Yes, I know Scarlett is nowhere to be…

I am a big fan of Rupaul’s Drag Race, and I have had my series of disappointments such as Katya not winning the crown for AS2 (All Stars 2), Peppermint not winning the crown in 9th Season, Kimchi losing the crown in 8th Season. . .wow all my favorites seem to never win, maybe I should stop picking a favorite? HA! Jokes on you because my all time favorite Trixie Mattel came and snatched the crown from Shangela on All Stars 3 (fight me she deserved it). On May 1st something sweet happened. Yes! Our very own Backwoods Barbie is…

Hard to believe that 21 years ago I was introduced to a game called Touhou: Perfect Cherry Blossom. I can’t remember how my friend [John] found it, but all I know is, he showed me and boy was I hooked instantly. Basically it’s a shooter survival, one hit you’re dead, and you are given only three lives. You start off basically with a weak shot, but gradually you get more powerful. The game has a lot of memorable characters. And I mean A LOT of memorable characters. Heck I even cosplayed as Reimu (as the first N. American Touhou cosplayer)…
