Fairies are fun to see in stories because there's so many variations and forms on the idea of what a fairy is. From The Seven Deadly Sins to Amagi Brilliant Part, fairies show up over and over again. This list are my favourite appearances of fairies in anime (not necessarily best anime). As always, I'd … Continue reading Top 5 Anime With Fairies
We all know there are many pretty anime out there and flowers, particularly cherry blossoms, show up in a lot of stories (and usually look gorgeous). Today I'm looking at my favourite gardens in anime series (I excluded movies deliberately but still ended up with far too many options). This is definitely a list of … Continue reading Top 5 Gardens in Anime Series
On the fourth day of the 12 Days of Aniblogging, I'm turning my attention to Elias from The Ancient Magus' Bride. An intriguing character, kept more intriguing by the lack of information more so than his actual presence.
The Ancient Magus' Bride was a highly anticipated anime when it came out in the Autumn 2017 season. Now completed in Winter 2018, what are your final thoughts? Review: Having never read the source material for this one, I still managed to read an abundance of spoilers before going in and while watching it there … Continue reading The Ancient Magus’ Bride Series Review: Magic Feels, Mundane Plot

Yes, this is another fairly random post where I have collected my favourite quotes from this season (so far) in one place. I'd love it if you would share your favourite lines or quotes from the season in the comments. Thanks for reading.

Review: I mentioned in my review of part 2 of this 3 part whatever it is (prequel maybe to the upcoming series) but this is a really stupid way to release something. The first part came out September last year and while I do believe I have a great memory, even I'm going to forget … Continue reading The Ancient Magus’ Bride Part 3
Review: I went into this knowing nothing but I saw it when looking at what was updated on Crunchyroll and thought it looked fascinating so decided to give part 1 a go. Kind of glad I did. It's definitely slow moving but there are little bits of magic interspersed throughout which means that the scenes … Continue reading The Ancient Magus’ Bride Part 1
