The second episode of Ikoku Nikki was soooooooo good.
The dialogue between Makio and Daigo was amazing, and I loved Makio's reunion with her (very understanding but not a pushover) ex.
I love how they make clear that Makio actually does understand people, even if she struggles with communication.

Why is my 2025 anime wrap-up post almost 5,000 words? Who allowed this to happen?
(Because I go off on like 3 unnecessary tangents. Me. It's my fault.)
People are going to think I'm Kvin.

1. Pink
2. Childhood friend dark blue

4. Super red
5. Light/pastel purple
6. Darker purple
6. Green
Silver/non-aged white is a contender for spot 3 but only in gacha games because it almost always looks bad in anime

Shiboyugi really asking me to figure out how much my love of pretty pictures and unique filmmaking will stand up against my aversion to content with rampant death as a core part of the story.

I watched the first episode of the new season's childhood friend romcom and I hate that I can't decide if I hated it or loved it.
Basically it sucks, but it also was funny at least one and the tsundere girl looks like an otome game protagonist AND has good piercings without being a gyaru.

Finished Aquarion MOE this afternoon while on the bike (I'm counting it as a 2025 show) and I have to say that in the isekai/sauceless romcom/shounenmumble world we live in, a heartfelt goofy scifi-fantasy about reincarnation and love hits different.

Can't believe Danmachi S5 brought back the theme of love I adored so much in S1 and put it in the hands of the Freya Familia of all things.
Dumbass show has no right to be as good as it is (but please bring Aiz back I miss her).

Starting off the new year watching 100 Meters.
As more of an endurance runner I'm not really into sprints and I much prefer Chihayafuru's take on talent, hard work, sports, and spending your life on things, but it was a fun movie for sure.
Those horns-forward tracks in the OST are bangers too.

Time to post the Christmas music I've been listening to this year!
Merry Christmas / Chieri Ito
I'm not really a city pop enthusiast or anything but this was just the right vibe for me this year.
