Now, I’m fairly certain that everyone has an expectation that the main villain of the series – Vicious – is going to a top pick for today’s challenge, but I’m here to say, “Nay, thou art mistaken.” Don’t worry; I’ll get to that guy later on in the month, but for today, I’m going to…

Picking my least favorite character on shows with large main casts – like Battlestar Galactica, for example – is a fairly easy task, but on shows like Bebop, it’s quite a bit more difficult, as there are only five main characters and I pretty much care about them almost equally. So I narrowed it down…

Although I didn’t enjoy her introduction, Ed (Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, as she has named herself because … Ed) quickly won me over with her weirdness and eccentric personality, which, according to the commentary on the DVD, was based upon Yoko Kanno, the brilliant composer of the series’ soundtrack (this makes me really…

Okay, this isn’t the worst episode by far, but … you know when you can’t stand something but have difficulty explaining exactly why that is? So “Gateway Shuffle” is that for me. Is it the goofy premise – eco-terrorists turning people into monkeys for reasons – or the over-the-top voice acting, which is usually top…

Now, I’m fairly certain that I’ve already said something like this, but I think it’s good to revisit certain ideas from time to time: favorite does not always equal best. I mean, one of my favorite movies of all time is Surf Ninjas, and it is objectively an absolutely terrible movie. This is not to…

I have Toonami to thank for so many things: The Big O, Tenchi Muyo, Reboot, Sailor Moon, Space Dandy, Gundam Wing, and … of course, Cowboy Bebop. To be completely honest, I didn’t particularly care for it at first. I mean, I didn’t hate it, but it’s not like I would stay up late to…

Ahhh, Cowboy Bebop … I said this on the challenge’s main page, but this series basically ruined all other anime for me. My expectations are high – from a storytelling perspective to animation style to voice acting, Cowboy Bebop is essentially flawless. Naturally, I’ll be talking some shit about it a little bit later –…

Glutton for punishment, I suppose, but yes, I’m going to try to complete NaNo again this year. The likelihood that my word count will suffer due to my schoolwork, burgeoning mental health journey, spiritual study, and various other things that my brain constantly thinks about, but hey, at least I’m trying. Also, be on the…

Well, that was bracing. I will definitely be talking about a few of the movies from last week in more depth when I get a chance, but for now, it’s onto Week Two. Oh, and correction from last week! I realized that I had misspoken when I said I hadn’t ever seen Vampire Hunter D:…

In a bid to keep myself accountable in my creative pursuits whilst in nursing school, I’m going to make myself some additional challenges. Naturally, school does have to come first, so I may have to fudge some things, but my plan is to watch at least one horror movie per day throughout the entire month…
