Where I talk about all the cool stuff in Japan.
Tokyo Revengers is not a show I was interested in watching until I heard about it's unique twist. A story about Japanese motorcycle hoodlums? Nah, not for me.

There are way too many Isekai anime series. Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation is the one of the only ones I will watch religiously.

Many years ago, before Colette Patterns became Seamwork, I downloaded their Sorbetto pattern to make for myself. It is a cute, basic tank top that works up easily. My one problem with it was, I needed to do a Full Bust Adjustment to make it fit. I was intimidated. I shouldn't have been. The first … Continue reading The Sorbetto Spree
The Rising of the Shield Hero is one of the better anime "I died and woke up in another world" shows, AKA: isekai. It's an interesting tale, since most of the stories start with the main character being super amazing at something that revolutionizes the world they end up in eventually, but that isn't the … Continue reading Anime Fangirling: The Rising Of The Shield Hero
The Ranking of Kings is a surprisingly good anime. Do not judge this show by its streaming service thumbnail...
