In my attempt at finding the next form of narrative media to fill the pit in my chest, I have finally decided to give F1 and the Netflix series Drive to Survive a go. I don’t know much about F1 besides that sometimes the drivers are guests on podcasts that I like to listen to …
The other day I was grabbing an iced coffee (for the girls) at my local Tim’s and I saw these kids roll up in their bootleg Naruto shirts. These kids looked cool. They had a basketball in hand, cool sneakers, they were wearing Nike head to toe – they were not nerds. So the juxtaposition …
As many of my friends know, I have a tendency to love things a little too much, without realizing that we are all different people and that what I love might be different from what other people love. However, when I say that the Chainsaw Man anime will be the next torrential storm in anime …
I recently reread Slam Dunk for the first time as an adult. For context, the last time I read Slam Dunk – I was in high school and I graduated in 2013. It’s been awhile since I’ve picked up the series that I have always considered in my personal top 5. Saying that Slam Dunk …

Since the pandemic started, I have been going crazy consuming content. Usually anime and manga. However, as I bought a tablet back in April – I have been going HAM on reading manga – watching less anime than I have ever in the past few years. I’m absolutely just losing hours in my day just …
This title is clickbait. Touch is not the forgotten king of sports anime/manga, in Japan anyway. Touch has sold 100 million copies. To put that in perspective, in 6 years and 26 volumes – Touch has sold more than Hajime no Ippo (132 volumes), Kingdom (62 volumes), and Fullmetal Alchemist (27 volumes). Touch has sold close …

My dad has always been quite the weird human being. He’s pretty ignorant to a lot of things, he’ll say one thing and mean another, and for someone who wants me to see the world – he himself can be pretty closed minded. He’s a bit old school and he believes whatever he sees on …
