Discussion: The Dangers in my Heart episode 1

Her body will belong to her killer. The Dangers in my Heart has been way up at the top of my most anticipated releases for spring 2023, and it wastes absolutely zero time getting the ball rolling. We’re one minute and 30 seconds in when this gem of a thought enters Kyotaro’s head. And if you think this is the beginning or the end of the crazy thoughts chilling in our lead character’s mind, think again. The way that they have set this opening sequence up is brilliant. Because while we are clearly in the imagination and perspective of an edgy middle school boy, the atmosphere and sound design take him seriously. Organ music that could announce the arrival of an RPG super villain swirls in the background. Our leading lady, Anna, is shown in Kyotaro’s mind in a beautiful colorscape of dark blue, rose, and white as she lays suspended in midair. And all the while, he and his classmates are just sitting in homeroom. Him daydreaming about their horrific demise while they clamour on about get

Review: Made in Abyss season 1

I first heard about Made in Abyss several years ago when I watched a review about it from Glass Reflection. I was intrigued, but, at the time went "Nah, horror stuff is not for me." However, as time has progressed, I've become much more intrigued by dark and questionable themes. I'm also much more aware of the various forms that horror content can take. While I still wouldn't touch a random slasher film--not because I'm scared, but because I find that kinda thing boring--psychological horror is something I've come to really enjoy. It's fascinating seeing what kinds of things can lurk in the human mind. And what an author can do to both their characters, and their audience, when they choose to dive in and explore that. The other thing in my life that really sold me on checking out Made in Abyss is that a couple years ago I got into adult coloring and one of my favorite aesthetics to color is anything I consider 'creepy cute'. So when I once a

Discussion: The Ancient Magus Bride season 2, episode 1

The Ancient Magus Bride is a very recent favorite for me, even though it was released in Fall of 2017. I binged season one in the middle of March, because I wanted to find out whether I would be interested in discussing season 2 when I started my channel. If you want a quick recap on how I feel about season 1, I’ll put it like this. The Ancient Magus Bride went from being something I was considering discussing, to being the series I am most eager to watch and discuss with you guys this spring. The show wastes zero time in reminding me of all the reasons that I love it. The opening music is catchy, and the visuals shown with it shift and flow as if the viewer is free falling. Then, we are inside Elias and Chise’s home; as if very little time has passed between the end of the last episode of season one, and the beginning of season 2. We are immediately greeted by someone from the College striving to get Chise to attend. And, as in season 1, Elias wants no part of it. But the thing that
