The four women who make up the Knight Sabers aren’t necessarily stereotypes, but they do fit certain roles in the group: Sylia is the stoic leader, Priss is the hotheaded muscle, Linna is the graceful fighter, and Nene is the smart hacker. Even though they’re stronger together than apart, there’s a weak link who just

I know that Priss Asagiri is a fan favorite, and I get it. She’s tough, brave, quick with her anger, and rides a damn motorcycle like there’s no tomorrow. That’s not even touching the fact that she fronts a rock band, The Replicants, and wears this glorious blonde wig that can make even the most

Honestly, every single episode of Bubblegum Crisis is a essentially a mini-movie, shrinkie-dinked down to an average of about 40 minutes, and several of them, with a bit of tweaking could be excellent stand-alone movies.

One of the things that bothers me in television is when writers basically run out of ideas and start rehashing a whole mess of storylines.

Less episodes always means this challenge day is hard, and Bubblegum Crisis is no different. Although the episodes do follow a type of continuity, you could technically watch them in any order and not really lose much, and that gives each the equal opportunity to be my favorite.

Ahhhh, this brings me back to my days as a sales associate at Sam Goody/Suncoast. When Jeff, my manager, asked me which side of the store I would rather work, I immediately told him that I wanted “to live with the movies,” an answer he found amusing. Music was fine, but it didn’t mesmerize me

Alrighty, it’s that time of the year again! In just a few short weeks, it’s going to be February, the shortest month of the year and the month in which I do a challenge on something that is a bit more short-form. I’ve done TV shows (Friends) and podcasts (The Adventure Zone), and, in the
