I am honestly unsure as to what I meant when I said I would be discussing the hardsuits. Past Me can be inscrutable. I mean, for those who don’t know, the hardsuits are basically one anime’s answer to Iron Man? But you can tell they’re for girls because high heels (hardcore eyeroll here). But here’s

You know, I don’t think you’re ever prepared to see Saturn’s return. Every 25 years or so, everything sort of returns to its default setting, and you have to deal with the shit you hadn’t or have been avoiding or didn’t even realize you were struggling with. My 25th year of life was 2009, but

Oooooh ooooh ooooh, I know I just mentioned that I forgot what today’s challenge was, but now I’m excited! Because I absolutely love this topic. Blade Runner to this day remains one of my favorite movies, even if it is incredibly problematic (see: Rachel and Deckard’s relationship). I regularly listen to Vangelis’ soundtrack, and I

So I missed yesterday for school reasons – that care plan wasn’t going to write itself, and it was a doozy – but I’ll be making that up today. Now, it’s way easier to show you rather than tell you what my favorite fight scene is, but after the video, I’ll discuss it a little

Gah, barely got this in before my self-imposed deadline! Surprisingly, there are not as many Boomers in BGC as there are in the reboot – a part of it is that it’s only 8 episodes long, while the reboot has 26 – but I feel like they have way more personality than they would otherwise.

Like I said back on Day 1, I was actually introduced to Bubblegum Crisis via its remake, Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040, and I have to say, it’s difficult to compare the two. The original has similar styling to Miami Vice: colorful and candy-coated exterior with a pessimistic center, almost like a game of whack-a-mole. No

You know how I kinda shit on “Blow Up” because it was basically a more boring “Born to Kill?” I don’t think I used those exact words, but I kind of wish I had. Oh, well. What’s done is done. Regardless, my least favorite secondary character is very similar, in that they wanted to recreate

28 day bubblegum crisis challenge, day 11: in which I have a favorite secondary/one-shot character …
Despite only being eight episodes long, Bubblegum Crisis has enough one-shot characters to satisfy literally anyone. You’ve got badass Boomers, friends, lovers, vengeful maniacs, and devilish CEOs. They’re all memorable for their own reasons; for example, Irene from “Born to Kill” is plucky and determined, more so than a lot of the victims of Boomer

Being that Bubblegum Crisis is only eight episodes long, there aren’t too many villains that grace the screen: Brian J. Mason, Largo, and Quincy are the three major ones. I don’t count the Boomers because they are more like tools as opposed to true villains, and since I already chose Mason as my favorite villain,

So I have an exam today in … oh, like five hours, and I have to do some last-minute studying, but! I’m going to actually try to stay on top of these, despite school being a clusterfuck at the moment. This is the last week of my Christianity 102 class, so naturally, we have a
